![]() ![]() ![]() Non-regular hexagons with central symmetry tessellate a flat surface, as shown in the following figure: Example 10: tessellation of Cairo The parallelogram tiles a flat surface, but unless it is a square it cannot form a regular tessellation. It is irregular because a node is not a common vertex of at least three squares and there are also neighboring squares that do not completely share an edge. Example 7įigure 9 shows an example of irregular tessellation, in which all the polygons are regular and congruent. Irregular tessellations are those that are formed by irregular polygons, or by regular polygons but that do not meet the criterion that a node is a vertex of at least three polygons. It is a tessellation consisting of triangles, squares and hexagons, in the configuration 3.4.6.4, which is shown in figure 8. ![]() Example 6: rhombi-tri-hexagonal tessellation Figure 7 clearly illustrates this type of tessellation. Like the tessellation in the previous example, this one also consists of triangles and hexagons, but their distribution around a node is 3.3.3.3.6. It is the one that is composed of equilateral triangles and regular hexagons in the 3.6.3.6 structure, which means that a node of the tessellation is surrounded (until completing one turn) by a triangle, a hexagon, a triangle and a hexagon. Some examples of semi-regular tessellations are shown below.

![]() Thus, it is plausible that 50 ML-InAs films are coherently strained to the GaSb substrate. 1(c), no significant change in the d 110 value is observed below 50 ML (17.5 nm). In the nearly lattice-matched system of InAs on GaSb(111)A (lattice mismatch ≈0.61%), as shown in Fig. Thus, it is likely that the lattice mismatch of InAs/Si (11.5%) is too large to be accommodated by elastic deformation of thin InAs films. This indicates that, on the Si(111) substrate, the InAs film was nucleated with its inherent lattice constant, and that pseudomorhic InAs layers are not formed. The spacing of streaks is quite close to the value of bulk InAs, and remains almost unchanged throughout the growth (<50 ML). A new set of streaks from the InAs film appeared in the RHEED patterns at the very early stage of the growth (~0.6 ML), in addition to those from the Si substrate. 1(b) is the variation in the d 110 value for the InAs growth on the Si(111) substrate. However, the strain relaxation processes between the two systems are quite different. Similarly to the case for InAs/GaAs(111)A, the InAs film is two-dimensionally grown on the In-terminated Si(111) substrate 9. On the other hand, the peak width of x-ray rocking curve is insensitive to the density of threading defects. Our x-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements revealed that the residual strain in InAs film is responsible for the peak broadening in XRD profiles. The in-plane compressive strain in InAs on GaAs (lattice mismatch of 7.2%) gradually relaxed as the growth proceeds, but the strain is not fully relaxed even in the 100nm-thick InAs film. Fully-strained pseudomorphic InAs layers continue to grow above ~50 ML on the nearly lattice matched GaSb substrates (lattice mismatch of −0.61%), while in the InAs/Si system with the largest lattice mismatch of 11.4%, mostly-relaxed InAs films are formed even at the very initial stage of the growth. While the InAs(111)A film grows in a layer-by-layer mode on all substrates irrespective of the lattice mismatch, the strain relaxation process behaves differently depending on the lattice mismatch. This paper reports the strain relaxation processes and structural properties of InAs films heteroepitaxially grown on the lattice-mismatched substrates of GaAs(111)A, Si(111), and GaSb(111)A. However, strain relaxation processes of InAs are far from being completely understood, and the crystalline quality of InAs has not been studied in detail. This technique has a great advantage, especially for the growth on Si(111), because the formation of antiphase domain boundaries in InAs films is suppressed, in contrast with the growth on the (001)-oriented substrate. The novel growth technique has been successfully applied to the layer-by-layer growth of InAs on Si(111) 9, GaSb growth on InAs/Si(111) 10, and to the improvement of the crystalline quality of InGaAs 11 and GaSb 12 on InAs/GaAs(111)A. Similar strain relaxation has been reported for GaSb/GaAs(001) heteroepitaxy, which is known for so-called interfacial misfit array growth 8. The layer-by-layer growth of the (111)A-oriented InAs film is accompanied by the formation of a misfit dislocation network at the InAs/GaAs interface 6, so that the generation of defects in the film is strongly suppressed. On the other hand, the use of the (111)A-oriented GaAs substrates forces the InAs film to grow in a layer-by-layer mode 5, 6, 7. The SK growth occurs also in the InAs/GaAs(001) system having lattice mismatch of 7.2%: InAs islands are formed at the film thickness of 1.6 ML 4. It has been reported that the islanding in the Ge/Si system is effectively suppressed by introducing As and Sb as surfactant species 1, 2, 3. ![]() Thus, significant efforts have been devoted to suppress the strain-induced islanding and strain-relieving defects. The island formation is highly undesirable, because it prevents the growth of smooth films and introduces nucleation centers for defects. A prototypical example of such a system is Ge on Si (lattice mismatch ≈4.2%), in which layer-by-layer growth is limited to 3–4 monolayer (ML). Heteroepitaxy in lattice-mismatched systems usually follows a Stranski-Krastanov (SK) growth mode: a pseudomorphic two-dimensional layer is formed below a certain critical thickness, and is followed by the formation of three-dimensional islands. The flexibility in the choice of materials for the formation of heterostructures is often limited by lattice mismatch. ![]() Heteroepitaxy of semiconductors has opened up new possibilities for band-structure engineering and novel devices, including strained-layer structures. ![]() ![]() ![]() For example, you can have a calendar view, list view, board view, gallery view, table view, and a timeline view.

The biggest surprise this time - after seeing the film once when I was much younger on TV, and a few years back on YouTube - was that I found a Shout Factory! Blu-ray on Amazon, and now have it in the library for good. It feels like such a genuinely American creation, and I wonder if Ken Kesey's original story was in the same vein as the film. working around the massive tree trunks that spill and tumble over in the log-cutting scenes is pretty damn impressive. And to that end, seeing Paul Newman and co. But the entire cast - even those tertiary performances by familiar faces from an era I grew up in - are perfectly tuned, and give the whole film a more robust, believable quality. And seeing grand old Henry Fonda gruffly spouting off-color suggestions at whoever happens to be in the scene with him was one of the delights both when I was younger, and now. One of the elements that I always find most winning here is the camaraderie and good-natured rapport between the Stamper family members.

A great way to make sure they are on the same focal plane is to have them close together and touching in some way, and then focus on the area where they are touching when you shoot. If you are shooting more than one subject, it is important that you keep them on the same focal plane as much as possible, otherwise you risk one or more subject being out of focus. Nailing the focus like this complements the blurry background, creating even more drama and beauty. Isolate your subject by moving closer, keeping the focal point of your photo far from the background. Light areas (like Christmas lights or soft sunlight reflecting off water droplets) will appear as soft circular light patterns, whereas a darker background with no points of light will result in bokeh with tones that fade into one another for a smooth background.Īnother strategy you can use to capture bokeh is getting up close to your subject and keeping them far away from anything else in the background. How To Crop And Straighten Photos In Lightroomħ Common Beginner Photography Mistakes and How to Avoid Themĭifferent types of backgrounds will create different bokeh effects. Golden hour is a great time to capture bokeh as the lighting is perfect! Shooting directly into an unobstructed sun will not create bokeh, but the sun filtering through leaves or reflecting off water droplets will create beautiful bokeh in the background of your photos. What you want to avoid is shooting directly into a strong source of light. Look for small light sources like a city skyline, traffic lights, streetlights, or string lights. The longer the lens, the more extreme your bokeh will be for example, you will have a better chance of capturing great bokeh with a 135mm lens than with a 35mm lens.Īs you shoot, pay attention to the background. ![]() In addition to the wide aperture, using a longer focal lens can help you capture bokeh. When shooting, use a low f-stop number like f/2 or lower. Shooting with a fast lens and a wide aperture helps to create bokeh. The soft light and blurred features of the background will contrast beautifully with your subject, which should be in crisp focus in the foreground of your photo. Sometimes these orbs of light are more obvious, like unfocused Christmas lights, but other times the lights may be more subtle like sunlight that is filtering through leaves.Ĭapturing bokeh in your photos is what will make the subject of your photo pop against the background. ![]() The term can sometimes be used to refer to the background as a whole, but is mainly used to refer to the circular orbs that are created by out-of-focus light in the background of an image. The term comes from the Japanese word “boke”, meaning “blur”. But what is it exactly? And how can you achieve that look yourself? It’s not as difficult as it may seem! With the right lens and the right approach, you can get great looking bokeh in your photos too! What is Bokeh?īokeh – pronounced bok-uh or boo-kay – is all about the blue in a photo and, more specifically, the quality of the blur.

I think maybe every shot might actually be me - maybe there's one shot that isn't. In that particular sequence, I did virtually all my own. Anyone get hurt for real doing the scene? Two-thirds of the way through the movie, there's a pretty spectacular fight scene. Then once there is a child, again, in the library that needs to be protected, she will stop at nothing. She wasn't going to go about living that way anymore. ![]() So my sense, and Navot sort of jumped on board with me on this - because it wasn't explicit in the script - was the idea that she had perhaps given up violence for some time. But if I'm choosing, my inclination will always be like somebody who wants to tell a story that comes from inside of them. ![]() Whether I love a movie or not, I would rather see a movie that's one person's vision then sort of an amalgamation of a bunch of notes and a bunch of things, that's trying to appeal to everybody. But there's no doubt with Mike Flanagan, Sebastian Gutierrez, Zack Snyder, Robert Rodriguez, these are all people who have a very strong sense of what they want, and they are the ones who are carrying that vision all the way through. That can be a beautiful part of the collaboration. It doesn't mean that someone can't write a gorgeous script and someone can't come and direct that script. So for me, definitely having one person who has the vision that we're all serving, I think there's something really helpful about that. I think so many influences for me cinema-wise are European and auteur-driven, and a lot of movies in the '60s and '70s. there's a magic element that comes from being together. I think, again, that's very resonant to me after this year and a half. There's also an element that I love of family - and not just family that you're born with, but family that you build and the fact that you are by far stronger as a team. So to me, there is an escapist quality to this movie, for sure. You fall into a world for a couple of hours and forget about your life and fall into these characters that have been invented in front of you, especially if it's also really visually stimulating like this movie is. I really think that - particularly after this last year and a half - there's something about cinema that is like a magic trick. But I think what was also key, and I think he chose the right people for it, was that it was imperative that the performances be grounded in a certain kind of humanity and simplicity, so that the world around it can be that big. But certainly this, Navot had a very strong idea of what he wanted it to look like and feel like, and it was always meant to be larger than life. I'm always interested in auteur-driven pieces and in many different genres. Well, for sure, it is an alternate reality, absolutely.

A single treatment was carried out on 25 study sites with a 3-msec alexandrite laser at 755 nm using fluences of 30 to 50 joules/cm(2). A designated period for follow-up was used to address the issue of long-term benefits. The purpose of this study was to assess the degree of hair loss attained by a single treatment with a 3-msec alexandrite laser. Since many patients desire permanent hair loss, there is a need for specific information on the exact benefits and limitations of each particular system. Most of the published studies use follow-up periods of 6 months or less after the last treatment and cannot address the issue of permanency. All of the laser systems presently being used produce a reliable temporary hair loss by inducing telogen.

Our results show that the algorithm we have developed is extremely fast (around 45 milliseconds) allowing for real-time application with high accuracy hair localization ( 96.48 %). We compare our algorithm with competing methods in terms of localization performance and computation time and show that a much faster real-time accurate localization of hair regions is possible with the proposed method. Proposed methods are based on certain features derived from histograms of hair and skin regions. Unlike previous limited number of studies, our methods are very fast allowing for real-time application. This study proposes a new system of algorithms to detect hair regions with the help of a digital camera. Therefore, methods that can distinguish hair regions automatically would be very helpful avoiding these unnecessary applications of laser.

Fold the adhesive tape down onto the RT7000 rolls. Place the double-sided adhesive film over the first drive roll and separate the adhesive part from its backing paper. Take care to orient the roll so that it is dispensed from the outside of the reel, as shown in the presentation photos. Then, place the double-sided tape roll around the hub on the upper structure of the unit. To start, make sure the device is not plugged in to the power supply. Setting up the dispenser and loading the roll The RLT 7000 electric tape dispenser is compatible with plain adhesive tapes, single-sided lined adhesive tapes and double-sided adhesive tapes. This device is extremely versatile and will greatly assist the industrial operator in their tasks. The RLT 7000 is an ingenious automatic dispenser, designed for the fast handling of prede-termined lengths of double-sided tape strips. Finally, it is possible, upon request, to equip the machine with a special support for larger rolls. The electric dispenser can support adhesive rolls of all types that are less than or equal to 50 mm in width and with an external diameter not exceeding 250 mm. It should also be noted that RLT7000 mainly accommodates double-sided rolls, but is also suita-ble for the use of all types of adhesive rolls equipped with liner. The automatic unwinder for adhesive films with liner protection is also equipped with a heavy sole, allowing the device to be used and moved very easily while maintaining optimal sta-bility. The automatic unwinder has been designed to protect all its inter-nal components and is therefore suitable for intensive use in industrial production. The entire upper part of the unit is made of thick and resistant painted sheet metal. In addition to being a very practical and versatile device, the RLT7000 is an extremely robust automatic double-sided tape dispenser. Here, the AFB50TB base directly separates the two materials during the unwinding pro-cess and collects the liner on an external winding machine, all thanks to a drive roller system. ![]() This task is often very long and tedious. The user of this cutting device will be able to double their production as they will no longer have manually remove the protective liner from the adhesive tape. This arrangement offers the RLT 7000 unique properties. However, the particularity of this automatic dispenser lies in the fact that it is directly coupled with a liner recovery dispenser for single and double-sided adhesive tapes with protective liners. The electric dispenser for adhesive rolls thus features an automatic mode, offering the autonomous dispensing of a new piece of adhesive tape after the previous one has been picked up, and a semi-automatic mode giving more control to the operator, the latter manually cutting by pressing the START key. The operator will also be able to use the two modes of this device. In this way, the user of this device for double-sided adhesive films will be able to define cutting lengths for example, 10 mm for setting A, 25 mm for setting B, etc. The dispenser operator will be able to select up to 6 feed lengths organized from letter A to letter F. The operator using the RLT7000 will benefit from the programming and cutting to length advantages of the RT 7000. ![]() The assembly of these two devices therefore presents a product with unique characteristics. Similarly, the AFB50TB dispenses manually, not automatically. The RT7000 alone does not have any liner recovery function. This automatic dispenser was mainly designed to relieve the industrial operator whose activity requires the repetitive and intensive handling of pieces of double-sided tape. ![]() |
