The electronic properties of graphene

TL;DR: In this paper, the basic theoretical aspects of graphene, a one-atom-thick allotrope of carbon, with unusual two-dimensional Dirac-like electronic excitations, are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theoretical approaches to x-ray absorption fine structure

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) well above an X-ray edge, and, to a lesser extent, on xray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) closer to an edge.

Ferroelectric materials for microwave tunable applications

TL;DR: A review of the properties of ferroelectric materials that are relevant to microwave tunable devices is presented in this article, where the theory of dielectric response of tunable bulk materials and thin films is discussed.

Vector quantization in speech coding

TL;DR: This tutorial review presents the basic concepts employed in vector quantization and gives a realistic assessment of its benefits and costs when compared to scalar quantization, and focuses primarily on the coding of speech signals and parameters.
