, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Kaboli, Shahriyar (Supervisor)
Abstract
Microwave tubes are widely used in the telecommunications transmitters. high voltage power supplies are used to feed them. According to the specifications that arises for microwave tubes, To take advantage of these tubes need to maintain and stabilize voltage in a certain amount to be felt. If the tube supply voltage changes, the desired output parameters such as RF output power quality will change. To stabilize the voltage is within acceptable limits provided in different ways. One common method is the use of switching regulators due to the high efficiency compared to linear regulators considered. But it also will bring problems. Some of these problems can be pointed to electromagnetic...
The Fabrication and Characterization of Graphene by Mechanical Exfoliation Method and a Review on Graphene Field Effect Transistors
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Akhavan, Omid (Supervisor)
Abstract
Graphene is a semiconductor with zero band gap. Due to electron ballistic transportation and having a single atom thickness of graphene, it is counted as an ideal material in Nano-electronic industry and essential candidate for fabrication of next generation of transistors. The Fermi level in graphene is located between Conduction and valance bands in a Dirac point. Due to low resistance, graphene has a substantial sensitivity near the Dirac point to local carrier density changes. This feature makes delicate detection of electromagnetic waves and gas sensing by graphene field effect transistors (GFETs). In this thesis, fabrication and characterization of graphene field effect transistor on...

However, a third party trying to eavesdrop information from communication channel and treat channel security , quantum cryptography or quantum key distribution (QKD) is the secure communication method which is based on the quantum mechanical principles can...
Angular Momentum Compensation and Sorting of Optical Modes in Optical Fiber
, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Bahrampour, Alireza (Supervisor) ; Farman, Farnaz (Supervisor)
Abstract
Electromagnetic field modes have several degrees of freedom, including polarization, orbital angular momentum, and radial order, which can be described by orthogonal modes. By using all the degrees of freedom in communication, the channel capacity can be increased dramatically. With the aim of increasing the capacity and correcting the errors created along the optical fiber, two important issues have been addressed in this thesis. First, the states propagated in the fiber may be disrupted by many unwanted factors and may not be transmitted correctly. Therefore, measures should be taken to minimize the impact of these factors as much as possible or to compensate for their effects. In the...
An experimental study on the proper criterion to judge the thermal performance of the nanofluids

Abstract
This work is dedicated to finding a suitable measure to judge thermal performance of nanofluids. The importance of this issue arises from misleading claim of excess heat transfer of nanofluids compared to the base fluid, neglecting the hydraulic effects such as increase in pressure drop. To clarify the issue, the experimental setup with capability to create constant Reynolds number and constant pumping power is constructed. Thermal behavior of nanofluids of silicon oxide/water and aluminum oxide/water and distilled water in developing region of laminar flow regime is investigated. In this regard, the convective heat transfer coefficient within the finned tube heat exchanger is evaluated....

Abstract
Tabas coal sample from Iran was desulfurized with combination of microwave irradiation and peroxyacetic acid washing in a batch reactor. The effect of irradiation time and power, peroxyacetic acid reaction time and temperature and particle size on reduction of sulfur was investigated. For microwaved/acid washed samples, depending on desulfurization conditions, the reduction in pyritic, organic and total sulfur ranged from 26 to 91, 2.6 to 38.4 and 17 to 65%, respectively. Microwave irradiation had positive effect on desulfurization with peroxyacetic acid. For <300 μm size fraction, after irradiation, the reduction enhanced from 49.9 to 86.6% in pyritic sulfur, 23.8 to 35% in organic sulfur...

Abstract
The results are presented for the investigations of sulfur removal from coal by a mixed culture of microorganisms. Optimal conditions of the process are established (pH, size of coal particles, pulp density, temperature, etc.). They make it possible to reduce the content of pyrite and total sulfur by 91.84 and 53.5%, respectively. The decrease in ash content of coal under its leaching is noted. © 2004 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc
Optimization of Refinery Crude Distillation unit Production
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Farhadi, Fatola (Supervisor) ; Bozorgmehry, Ramin (Supervisor)
Abstract
The design and optimization of processes was focused in the past on economic issues such as profitability and return on investment, and less attention has been paid to environmental issues. In recent years, by introducing environmental criterion as pillars of sustainable development, environmental optimization of processes has becoming an inseparable element of the process engineering. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the compatibility of environmental indicators with economic objective. The purpose of this study is to investigate environmental indicators and economic objective function in optimizing the Crude Distillation Unit (CDU) of an oil refinery. The CDU is one of the most...

Abstract
A sample of Tabas coal from Iran was oxidized using air, peroxyacetic acid (PAA), and PAA+air as a pretreatment for desulfurization with sodium butoxide in a batch reactor. The effects of air oxidation temperature, PAA oxidation time, sodium butoxide reaction time and temperature, solvent concentration and particle size on the reduction of sulfur were investigated. The PAA+air oxidation pretreatment was the most effective method for enhancing sulfur removal. This procedure increased pyritic sulfur removal by approximately 15% and organic sulfur removal by 20% in leaching with sodium butoxide. Increasing the temperature from 25 (unoxidized) to 100 °C on air oxidized samples, increased sulfur...
Detection of High Frequency Oscillations from ECoG Recordings in Epileptic Patients
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Hajipour, Sepideh (Supervisor) ; Sinaei, Farnaz (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
The processing of brain signals, including the electrocorticogram (ECoG) signal, is widely used in the investigation of neurological diseases. Conventionally, the ECoG signal has frequency components up to the range of 80 Hz. Studies have proven that in some conditions, such as epilepsy, the brain signal includes frequency components higher than 80 Hz, which are called high-frequency oscillations (HFO). Therefore, HFOs are recognized as a biomarker for epilepsy. The aim of this thesis is to review the previous methods of detecting HFOs and to present new methods with greater efficiency in the direction of diagnosis or treatment of epileptic patients. For this purpose, we used the ECoG data...
Optimizing the Balance Between Resolution, Field-of-View and Depth-of-field in Three-dimensional Imaging
, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Mehrany, Khashayar (Supervisor) ; Bagheri, Saeed (Supervisor) ; Massoumian, Farnaz (Co-Advisor)
Abstract
In this thesis a rigorous approach toward systematic quantification of qualitative fea-tures in a three-dimensional (3D) integral imaging is proposed. Incorporating the concepts of sampling rays and sampling points, the first approach is based on geo-metrical optics and quantifies the lateral and depth resolutions of the system within the field-of-view (FOV) and depth-of-field (DOF). The obtained results are justified through experiments. In the next step, the principals of wave optics are employed to measure the lateral and depth resolutions of the system. To this end, the concept of point-spread function is generalized to three-dimensional imaging systems. Through this systematic approach the...
