![]() | Henderson, Thomas C. | Pattern formation in wireless sensor networks | Biological systems exhibit an amazing array of distributed sensor/actuator systems, and the exploitation of principles and practices found in nature will lead to more effective artificial systems. The retina is an example of a highly tuned sensing organ, and the human skin is comprised of a set o... | Pattern formation; Wireless sensor networks | 2008 |

![]() | Liu, Feng | Pattern formation on silicon-on-insulator | The strain driven self-assembly of faceted Ge nanocrystals during epitaxy on Si(001) to form quantum dots (QDs) is by now well known. We have also recently provided an understanding of the thermodynamic driving force for directed assembly of QDs on bulk Si (extendable to other QD systems) based on ... | Pattern formation; Silicon-on-insulator; Strain driven; Faceted Ge nanocrystals; Si(001); Directed assembly | 2005 |

![]() | Liu, Feng | Pattern formation via a two-step faceting transition on vicinal Si(111) surfaces | We demonstrate a self-organized pattern formation on vicinal Si(l 11) surfaces that are miscut toward the [211] direction. All the patterns, consisting of a periodic array of alternating (7x7) reconstructed terraces and step-bunched facets, have the same periodicity and facet structure, independent ... | Pattern formation; Faceting transition; Vicinal Si(111); Miscut | 2001 |

![]() | Henderson, Thomas C. | Reaction-diffusion patterns in smart sensor networks | We introduced the use of Turing?s reaction-diffusion pattern formation to support high-level tasks in smart sensor networks (S-Nets). This has led us to explore various biologically motivated mechanisms. In this paper we address some issues that arise in trying to get reliable, efficient patterns... | Reaction-diffusion; Pattern formation; Smart sensor networks; S-Nets | 2003-11-05 |
