Transforming lignocellulosic biomass into fuels and chemicals has been intensely studied in recent years. A large amount of work has been dedicated to finding suitable solvent systems, which can improve the transformation of biomass into value-added chemic ...
A microstructured falling film reactor was applied to the dye-sensitized photochemical conversion of 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene to juglone. This continuous-flow microreactor enables the efficient contacting of a gas and a liquid phase in combination with ext ...
In this paper, an analytical noise calculation is presented to derive the impact of process and design parameters on 1/f and thermal noise for a low-noise CMOS image sensor (CIS) readout chain. It is shown that dramatic noise reduction is obtained by using ...

Encapsulation of metal nanoclusters in porous solid polymer materials is a promising approach to combine the outstanding properties of both, heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysts. We report heterogeneous nano-engineered catalysts containing Pd-nanopartic ...
A novel Cinchona alkaloid-catalyzed enantioselective conjugate addition of alpha-alkyl substituted alpha-nitroacetates to phenyl vinyl selenone was developed. The resulting enantio-enriched alpha,alpha-dialkyl substituted alpha-nitroacetates were subsequen ...
This work is based on the assumption that it is possible to achieve sustainable development by preserving the twentieth century heritage. Modern European cinemas were especially vulnerable to the passing of time: in a few decades buildings with tremendous ...
A 1 x 400 array of backside-illuminated SPADs fabricated in 130 nm 3D IC CMOS technology is presented. Sensing is performed in the top tier substrate and time-to-digital conversion in the bottom tier. Clusters of eight pixels are connected to a winner-take ...
