The simultaneous optimal mathematical model is established. This method can be practically used in the integration of large-scale heat exchanger networks, not only to synthesize automatically but also to satisfy the requirement of struc-tural controllability with more objective human intervention.展开更多

The nanomesh structure is prepared on a high-density SWNT network channel and enables a high on/off ratio while maintaining the excellent uniformity of the electrical properties of the SWNT TFTs. These effects are attributed to the effective elimination of metallic paths across the source/drain electrodes by forming the nanomesh structure in the high-density SWNT network channel. Therefore, our approach can serve as a critical foundation for future nanotube-based thin- film display electronics.展开更多
