Meltblowing (MB) is a unique one-step process for producing self-bonded fibrous nonwoven membranes directly from polymer resins, with average fiber diameter ranging between 2 and 5 μm. Determining routes for making nano- or submicron-fibers using this process are desirable since…
New effects can arise in quantum physics when there is strong coupling, either between atoms and light or between different quantum systems. This thesis examines an optical nanofiber atom trap as a mediator of atom-light interactions and a potential element of a hybrid quantum s…
In recent times, polymer nanocomposites have attracted a great deal of scientific interest due to their unique advantages over conventional plastic materials, such as superior strength, modulus, thermal stability, thermal and electrical conductivity, and gas barrier. They are fi…
