Certain fractional calculus and integral transform results of incomplete ℵ-functions with applications

In this paper, we study certain interesting and useful properties of incomplete $\aleph$-functions. The incomplete $\aleph$-function is an extension of the $\aleph$-function. We find several useful classical integral transforms of these functions. Further, we examine the fractional calculus with the incomplete $\aleph$-functions and point out several special cases. Finally, we give the applications of incomplete $\aleph$-functions in detecting glucose supply in human blood.     

On the analysis of vibration equation involving a fractional derivative with Mittag-Leffler law

The present article deals with a fractional extension of the vibration equation for very large membranes with distinct special cases. The fractional derivative is considered in Atangana-Baleanu sense. A numerical algorithm based on homotopic technique is employed to examine the fractional vibration equation. The stability analysis is conducted for the suggested scheme. The maple software package is utilized for numerical simulation. In order to illustrate the effects of space, time, and order of Atangana-Baleanu derivative on the displacement, the outcomes of this study are demonstrated graphically. The results revel that the Atangana-Baleanu fractional derivative is very efficient in describing vibrations in large membranes.

Isometric multipliers of a vector valued Beurling algebra on a discrete semigroup

Let (S,ω) be a weighted abelian semigroup, let M _ω (S) be the semigroup of ω-bounded multipliers of S, and let \(\mathcal {A}\) be a strictly convex commutative Banach algebra with identity. It is shown that T is an onto isometric multiplier of \(\ell ^{1}(S,\omega , \mathcal {A})\) if and only if there exists an invertible σ ∈ M _ω (S), a unitary point \(a \in \mathcal {A}\), and a k>0 such that \(T(f)= ka{\sum }_{x \in S} f(x)\delta _{\sigma (x)}\) for each \(f={\sum }_{x \in S}f(x)\delta _{x} \in \ell ^{1}(S,\omega ,\mathcal {A})\). It is also shown that an isomorphism from \(\ell ^{1}(S_{1},\omega _{1},\mathcal {A})\) onto \(\ell ^{1}(S_{2},\omega _{2}, \mathcal {B})\) induces an isomorphism from \(M(\ell ^{1}(S_{1},\omega _{1},\mathcal {A}))\), the set of all multipliers of \(\ell ^{1}(S_{1},\omega _{1},\mathcal {A})\), onto \(M(\ell ^{1}(S_{2},\omega _{2},\mathcal {B}))\).     

Approximation of quadrilaterals by rational quadrilaterals in the plane

Many questions about triangles and quadrilaterals with rational sides, diagonals and areas can be reduced to solving certain diophantine equations. We look at a number of such questions including the question of approximating arbitrary triangles and quadrilaterals by those with rational sides, diagonals and areas. We transform these problems into questions on the existence of infinitely many rational solutions on a two parameter family of quartic curves. This is further transformed to a two parameter family of elliptic curves to deduce our main result concerning density of points on a line which are at a rational distance from three collinear points (Theorem 4). We deduce from this a new proof of density of rational quadrilaterals in the space of all quadrilaterals (Theorem 39). The other main result (Theorem 3) of this article is on the density of rational triangles which is related to analyzing rational points on the unit circle. Interestingly, this enables us to deduce that parallelograms with rational sides and area are dense in the class of all parallelograms. We also give a criterion for density of certain sets in topological spaces using local product structure and prove the density Theorem 6 in the appendix section. An application of this proves the density of rational points as stated in Theorem 31.     

Numerical Investigation of Graphene as a Back Surface Field Layer on the Performance of Cadmium Telluride Solar Cell

This paper numerically explores the possibility of ultrathin layering and high efficiency of graphene as a back surface field (BSF) based on a CdTe solar cell by Personal computer one-dimensional (PC1D) simulation. CdTe solar cells have been characterized and studied by varying the carrier lifetime, doping concentration, thickness, and bandgap of the graphene layer. With simulation results, the highest short-circuit current (I_sc = 2.09 A), power conversion efficiency (η = 15%), and quantum efficiency (QE~85%) were achieved at a carrier lifetime of 1 × 10³ μs and a doping concentration of 1 × 10¹⁷ cm⁻³ of graphene as a BSF layer-based CdTe solar cell. The thickness of the graphene BSF layer (1 μm) was proven the ultrathin, optimal, and obtainable for the fabrication of high-performance CdTe solar cells, confirming the suitability of graphene material as a BSF. This simulation confirmed that a CdTe solar cell with the proposed graphene as the BSF layer might be highly efficient with optimized parameters for fabrication.     

Synthesis of phenanthro[a] phenazine derivatives: a novel ring structure forming discotic liquid crystals

Phenanthro[a] phenazine, a new heterocyclic ring structure of both biological and physical interest, has been prepared by coupling 1,2-phenylenediamine with triphenylene-1,2-diquinone derivatives in high yields. 2,3,6,7,10-Penta-alkoxyphenanthro[a] phenazines are mesogenic over a broad temperature range. These novel unsymmetrical, coloured, polar, heteroaromatic discotic mesogens are potential candidates for the study of conducting, photoconducting, electroluminescence, photorefrective, etc. properties.     

Generation of tunable 16 μm radiation from CO2 by cascade lasing

In this paper we propose a scheme to generate tunable 16 μm radiation from CO₂ molecules by cascade lasing. The stimulating 9.5 μm radiation is generated internally by the fast rotating mirror Q-switching technique. The optical scheme proposed by us uses an intracavity prism to separate the 9.5 μm and the 16 μm beams. This facilitates independent tuning of the two beams if required. In the present configuration, only the 16 μm cavity is dispersive. The 9.5 μm beam grows spontaneously in a stable semiconfocal resonator. We have developed a theoretical model to simulate the proposed scheme. The model predicts the energy and power of 16 μm radiation. The calculated values are much higher than the previously obtained experimental values. The results point out the feasibility of developing a laser system based on the theoretical design parameters presented in this paper. Such laser systems can find application in uranium isotope separation studies.
