Historical Review of Ionosphere in Perspective of Sources of Ionization and Radio Waves Propagation
Abstract: Before the discovery of ionosphere, the electronic communication was not possible at a distance greater than 100 km due to the curvature of Earth; but after its discovery, the ionospheric wave propagation made possible the electronic communication at even more than 3000 km via reflection of radio waves through ionosphere. The ionosphere is electrically neutral, ranging from 50 to 1000 km in altitude and outer limit can exceed to 3000 …

Studies on Electrical and Thermal Transport of InN based on Two Layer Model
Abstract: InN, a material of huge potential in device applications, is grown on sapphire substrate. But due to the high lattice mismatch between the sapphire and InN, the large number of dislocations develops near the interface between the two materials. However, the density of threading dislocation falls sharply in the bulk layer. The charge density has also similar variation. Therefore, the bulk InN crystal may be treated to be consisting of …
