Abstract
Isoquinolinonese are important structural compounds in plant alkaloids and useful synthetic intermediates for bio logically active compound some 3(2H)-isoquinolinone are known to exhibit biological effects such as antidepressant, cardiotonic, or analgesic activity. 3(2H)-isoquinolinone and its derivative are not so readily accessible. They have previously been synthesized by the reaction of o-acylphenyl acetic with ammonia, reaction of 3-isochromanon with amines this methods have problems like low yield and because of that we have developed practical and efficient route to synthesis 1٬4 dihydroisoquin-3(2H)-ones under microwave irradiation. We did this project with modified Pictet-Spengler...

Microwave Inspired Easy-to-Design Nano-Couplers for Hybrid Photonic-Plasmonic Waveguide Structures
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Mehrany, Khashayar (Supervisor)
Abstract
Potential of plasmonic waveguide structures to confine light in sub-wavelength scales attracted many attentions in recent years. Among these structures planar metal-insulator-metal waveguide and plasmonic slot waveguide are more promising. That is because of their easy fabrication process along with their various reported applications. However, there are some obstacles in the path of developing plasmonic integrated circuits, among whichhigh propagation loss can be named as the most important. To solve this issue, photonic waveguides can be used as the lossless interconnections between small footprint plasmonic components on optical chips. Therefore, application of plasmonic slot waveguide...

Banai, Ali
(Supervisor)
Abstract
Modern broadband microwave and millimeter-wave systems often struggle with excessive pass band ripple and negative gain slopes due to the loss of transmission lines such as coaxial cables, or ripples in the gain characteristic of broadband amplifiers. The common solution for this problem is using a gain equalizer to compensate for the intrinsic pass band variation with some extra loss in the band of interest in return.Designed equalizers often have a constant slope in their bandwidth. However, having ripples in pass band or in other words slope changing in some parts of the band is one of the issues that designers should deal with. In this thesis, after reviewing the previous works on the...

Microwave Assisted Synthesis of Sno2 Nanoparticles from Sn Coated Cu Wire Scraps
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Sadrnezhaad, Kh (Supervisor) ; Mohammadi, MohammadReza (Supervisor)
Abstract
Tin Oxide Nanoparticle (SnO2) with the band gap of around 3.6 eV is one of the promising materials in various fields such as photocatalysis water splitting, pollutant removal and also biotechnology. Inorder to use this material in a visible-light rang, some promotions should be conducted.By combining SnO2 nanoparticles with the non-metalic graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), a proper nanocomposite with wide range of application can be obtained. But, in order to industrialize this material, the cost of the final product is an imperative issue to consider.Here we have introduced a novel and low-cost method for synthesis of g-C3N4/SnO2 nanocomposite by using urea as a precursor for g-C3N4 and...
Wideband Microwave Radio Direction Finding Based on Phase Interferometry Method for Two and Three Dimensional Arrays with Minimum Number of Antennas
, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Farzaneh, Forouhar (Supervisor)
Abstract
The interferometer method, as one of the most accurate schemes for wideband direction finding (DF), is used. The interferometer method has various algorithms which can be implemented depending on the required specifications. The advantages and disadvantages of these algorithms have been evaluated and the appropriate algorithm for a general practical case in view of the ambiguity resolution is proposed. The receivers’ channel phase tracking error is of significant concern in practice, in interferometric DF systems. The induced error due to channels phase tracking error is estimated. Furthermore the use of physically realizable antennas, achievement of high accuracy, minimum number of antennas...

Energy conversion and storage as well as life sciences are among the areas of our daily life. Interest in carbon nanomaterials for energy storage systems such as supercapacitors has enormously risen due to their attractive electrical conductivity, chemical inertness, and charge storage capacity. Producing these nanomaterials with a simple, scalable, and cost-effective method is the major problem for commercializing them. The reduction of graphitic oxide is a versatile procedure to prepare 3D graphene. Despite many green methods, the dynamics behind ultrafast thermal graphitization have remained elusive.

, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Naghdabadi, Reza (Supervisor) ; Sohrabpour, Saeed (Supervisor) ; Goudarzi, Taha (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
Electromagnetic metamaterials are designed artificial materials with sub-wavelength resonant inclusions. They can exhibit extraordinary properties such as negative permittivity, negative permeability, and anomalous reflection/refraction. Metasurfaces are 2D counterparts of metamaterials. Here, we proposed a framework for the multiscale multiphysics analysis of deformable metasurfaces. Nonlinear mechanical analysis (Geometry and material behavior), periodic boundary conditions, homogenization, multiscale analysis, and electromagnetic analysis are implemented in this framework. Benefiting from the framework, we proposed a multifunctional hyperelastic structured surface that can generate...
