Abstract:
Systems, methods, and computer program products for recommending ecosystem credit tokens based on modelled outcomes are provided. In various embodiments, field data comprising geospatial boundaries of one or more field are received. One or more methodology is accessed. For each of the one or more fields, one or more farming practice is accessed, wherein each farming practice comprises a location and time. For each of the one or more fields, for each crop production period, an ecosystem attribute is generated by applying one or more ecosystem attribute quantification methods to each spatially and temporally unique set of one or more farming practices. Selection of one or more program is optimized for each field based on the set of selected programs being compatible within the field and production period.
Abstract:
A nanotube apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a first electrode having a first edge. An array of nanotubes distributed in a closed path are also included. The closed path surrounds the first electrode and adjacent to the first edge. The closed path is also locally straight. Each of the nanotubes has an end that is free to oscillate. The apparatus also includes a second electrode having a second edge surrounding both the first electrode and the array of nanotubes. Methods are also described.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a nanoscale conductive device (1), comprising the steps of providing a substrate (2), having a top surface (6) provided with at least one surface irregularity (3), providing an elongated nanoconductor (4) across said at least one surface irregularity (3), and applying a force on said elongated nanoconductor (4), at least one component of the force being directed essentially perpendicular to the surface of the substrate (3). The topography of the substrate is thus used together with the applied force to alter the electrical properties of the nanoconductor. The method facilitates easy and reproducible manufacturing of a conductive nano-scale device.
Abstract:

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a nanoapplication (2) comprising a nanostructure (1) attached to a substrate (3). The invention is characterized in that the nanostructure () comprises conducting means (4) for allowing manipulation by an electromagnetic field or a magnetic field, wherein the 5 nanostructure (1) is arranged to be displaced in relation to the substrate (3) when the conducting means (4) is subject to the electromagnetic field or the magnetic field.
Abstract:
Amounts of endohedral fullerenes or fullerene derivatives which can be isolated macroscopically are to be prepared efficiently irrespective of the type of doping agent to be implanted. To that end, according to the invention, fullerenes or fullerene derivatives are applied to a target and irradiated in the solid phase with low-energy ions having kinetic energy of between 5 eV and 500 eV of the doping agents to be implanted. The application of fullerenes or fullerene derivatives and irradiation are carried out simultaneously or successively. The energy of the ions and the irradiation dose at which most of the ions of the doping agents to be implanted penetrate the fullerene or fullerene derivatives to be applied to the target are determined in series of measurements.
