It's so thin and light as to feel almost like a prop, rather than a functional device.
Researchers in the field have created static structures such as two- and three-dimensional crystal lattices, nanotubes, polyhedra, and arbitrary shapes, as well as functional devices such as molecular machines and DNA computers.
As a result, significant differences as compared to most III-V and II-VI semiconductors are expected and accurate measurements of the mechanical properties of GaSe thin films are required, since such parameters are critical for making structural elements as well as functional devices.
For the study, participants lay in a brain scanner known as a functional M.R.I. device, and peered through a periscope at monosyllabic words flashed on a computer screen.
As a significant terahertz functional device, terahertz beam splitters with high performance are highly required to meet the need for terahertz communication, terahertz image, and terahertz sensor systems.
However, SOI wafers modified by self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) that can also be used as functional device platforms have been investigated to a much lesser extent.
It was a utilitarian, functional "device," vital in those pre-GPS days, but now a relic, an artifact, an anachronism.
It's a simple, functional device.
The next level of this," Avi says, "is to print a fully functional device with circuits and sensors and logic".
Port duration was defined as functional device with or without revision, but without need for complete system explantation.
