For example, thick NWs with a thickness of several hundreds of nanometer up to few micrometer are preferred for applications which based on the compression of the NWs, e.g. caused by an externally applied pressure, whereas thin NWs (few nanometer thick) are interesting for surface and bending sensitive applications [5].
There are several low absorption windows at 800-900 nm and 1 µm and these spectral regions are preferred for applications where the sample has significant water content (like in ophthalmic applications where imaging is performed through more than 2 cm of water).
Since most eukaryotic P450s are membrane-bound proteins, require the cofactor NAD(P H and cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR), a whole-cell system is preferred for application in biosynthesis.
It is claimed here that the proposed algorithm offers an efficient alternative to QP which should be preferred for applications with fast sampling.
The anatase phase of TiO2 is preferred for photocataytic applications, whereas rutile phase is preferred for applications in pigments [1].
Concluding, the IR-DFEC algorithm provides the greatest spectral efficiency and should be preferred for applications where the target is not set to small values, while the c-DSFC should be used in applications which require small values.
DC series motors are preferred for mechatronic applications requiring high torque/speed ratios.
Conventional glass ionomer and zinc phosphate cements are among the most popular materials for luting metallic restorations and posts, whereas resin-based cements are preferred for esthetic applications.
Comparing to the large size macrovoids, the small-size macrovoids in PVDF hollow fibers are preferred for VMD applications because they would not significantly reduce the membrane mechanical strength.
The majority part of semiconductors is indirect bandgap material; compared with them, direct bandgap materials are preferred for several applications such as laser diodes.
Similarily, high salt concentration can affect enzyme hydration and enzymes that are stable at high salt concentrations are preferred for industrial applications (Woodley [2013]).
