Flexible Laser Tracing Systems for Defining Thin Film Hybrid Geometries
1994
A recent programme of technical collaboration between Alelco, DIE of Palermo and CRES of Monreale has led to the development and operative confirmation of a technique for delineating conductive microgeometries on various types of Substrates. This technique, using a flexible System of laser microlithography on planar (2-D) or three-dimensional (3-D) surfaces, has led to the development of several types of thin film components for use at both low and high frequencies. © 1994, MCB UP Limited
Nanofabrication on 2D and 3D Topography via Positive‐Tone Direct‐Write Laser Lithography
2019
Direct laser writing (DLW) lithography using two‐photon absorption is a powerful technique mostly used for fabrication of complex structures in micro‐ and nanoscale, by photopolymerizing a negative‐tone resist. In contrast, in this study it is demonstrated that DLW is also well suited for fabricating nano‐ to microscale metallic structures using lift‐off and a positive‐tone photoresist. It is shown first that versatile, fast and large area fabrication is possible on flat two‐dimensional insulating substrates, and an expression for how the line width varies with the scanning speed is derived, with excellent agreement with the experiments. Even more interestingly, a unique application for the…
Organizational Media Affordances : Operationalization and Associations with Media Use
2017
The concept of affordances has been increasingly applied to the study of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in organizational contexts. However, almost no research operationalizes affordances, limiting comparisons and programmatic research. This article briefly reviews conceptualizations and possibilities of affordances in general and for media, then introduces the concept of organizational media affordances as organizational resources. Analysis of survey data from a large Nordic media organization identified six reliable and valid organizational media affordances: pervasiveness, editability, self-presentation, searchability, visibility, and awareness. Eight media scales base…
Evaluación de competencias en redacción científica tras dos modalidades diferentes de cursos de formación: protocolo del Estudio SCRIU-B
2021
La redacción de artículos científicos es una de las competencias necesarias y solicitadas por los profesionales de la salud. Existen distintos formatos de cursos para adquirirlas, pero no siempre se evalúa objetivamente su impacto. Con un diseño experimental abierto y no aleatorizado, el estudio SCRIU-B pretende evaluar la adquisición de competencias en redacción científica tras la realización de cursos de formación específicos (presenciales y en línea), así como la satisfacción de los participantes. Se incluye un grupo control con alumnado de otras actividades formativas no relacionadas con la escritura científica. Mediante distintos cuestionarios de evaluación de conocimientos, actitudes …
Voci sovversive e gerarchie familiari in "They Make a Desert and Call It Peace" di Marina Warner
2020
This essay examines the way Marina Warner's radio play They Make a Desert and Call it Peace (2014) and its fictional reworking of contemporary news such as the Bloody Sunday report and the investigation of the Gaza Flotilla Raid of 30 May 2010. After a presentation of the development of radio plays in England, the essay shows what interest they have generated among feminist writers and how Warner uses the voice of women in her play, which also serves as a rewriting of the biblical story of Salome, to question the transmission of the memory of traumatic events such as the Bloody Sunday. The play overturns the point of view from that of the master narrative, emphasized by media and institutio…
Louisa S. McCord's Caius Gracchus: A Transatlantic Southern Literary Response to 1848 European Revolutions
2016
Louisa S. McCord is the most important female intellectual in the antebellum South and one of its most recognized voices, even if her name rarely appears in studies not directly related to her region. McCord has a parallel, according to Mary Kelley, in Margaret Fuller, the relevant prewar Northern intellectual and essayist. From contrasting ideological positions, both left testimony of their interest in constructing a model of womanhood, capable of facing the contingencies of their times. Born in one of the most influential families of South Carolina, McCord produced a phenomenal synthesis of the conservative political, economic and religious arguments accepted in her times and managed to t…
Used and interaction in technological platforms of open source to improve the linguistic competence in computer engineers
2017
The higher education through virtual environment is students centered oriented to the interactive learning, in situations to be closer to the real world; for that reason, teachers must have new communicative competences, nonverbal and with a learning innovative approach which allows to guide their students in the complex process of acquiring knowledge even more in a foreign language. In the same context, the use of technologic platforms of open code is becoming in the best way to give solutions which meet the actual needs of the process of acquiring a second language; on this basis, the present research is focused in the analysis and use of Open Source tools as alternative of complementary …
The representation of work in the French narration since the Thirty Glorious Years
2017
There has been a resurgence of interest in the theme of work, since the end of the Thirty Glorious Years. Initially centered on a few emblematic works, there has emerged in subsequent years, multifaceted forms of expression that do not lend themselves easily to unifying categorisation. However, a specific literariness has emerged on this theme that reflects an originality that is unique within the realm of literary production. Whilst all writers hesitate about the best means to narrate human activities, those who write about work face particular difficulties in defining their position and status. The notion of fiction itself is challenged as it shifts between the domain of the real and the …
La scrittura espressiva: fondamenti teorici, applicazioni e nuove prospettive di ricerca
2014
Raccontare le esperienze traumatiche e stressanti della propria vita, cercando di chiarirne i significati personali, serve non solo ad oggettivare i propri vissuti ed a conoscersi meglio, ma può anche migliorare le condizioni di salute psico-fisica, l’efficienza personale e modificare in senso positivo il modo di pensare, gli atteggiamenti, i comportamenti e le relazioni interpersonali. James Pennebaker ha inaugurato un filone di studi sperimentali volti a chiarire gli effetti della scrittura espressiva e i meccanismi psicofisiologici che si innescano quando traumi ed esperienze stressanti sono verbalizzati. Il pensiero narrativo è la prospettiva che dà fondamento teorico a tale metodo di r…
Development of an MeV ion beam lithography system in Jyväskylä
2007
Abstract A lithographic facility for writing patterns with ion beams from cyclotron beams is under development for the Jyvaskyla cyclotron. Instead of focusing and deflecting the beam with electrostatic and magnetic fields a different approach is used. Here a small rectangular beam spot is defined by the shadow of a computer-controlled variable aperture in close proximity to the sample. This allows parallel exposure of rectangular pattern elements of 5–500 μm side with protons up to 6 MeV and heavy ions (20Ne, 85Kr) up to few 100 MeV. Here we present a short overview of the system under construction and development of the aperture design, which is a critical aspect for all ion beam lithogra…
