Our most recent publication, «Thermodynamic behaviour of a D2+ molecular complex in quantum rings under the combined effects of nonresonant intense laser field radiation and electric field,» is now available.
A methodical study of the thermal properties of a hydrogen molecular ion strongly confined in a flat semiconductor quantum ring under external probes: intense laser-field radiation and static electric fields were carried out. The corresponding Schrödinger equation for these two coupled donors system was numerically solved by using the finite element method within the effective…

Water quality monitoring allows communities to achieve sustainable management of water resources, which is crucial for life-supporting processes. Water quality is determined by measuring chemical, physical, and biological parameters, requiring sophisticated meters and trained specialists to perform the measurement. However, in low-income communities, water quality is determined by using human senses—smell, color, and taste—since meter…
