MID-GAP STATES IN DEFECTIVE ANATASE TiO2 : A DENSITY FUNCTIONAL THEORY STUDY PLUS A HUBBARD TERM (DFT+U)
(University of Eldoret, 2016)
Motivated by the performance of reduced Titania in various important applications including
photo-catalysis, photo-voltaics and CO2 reduction in hydrocarbon fuels, a systematic
study of the structural properties and the ...
Ab-initio STUDIES OF STRUCTURAL, ELECTRONIC, MAGNETIC AND OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF NICKEL OXIDE
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
Nickel Oxide (NiO) has many applications in solar energy utilization, due to variations
in electronic, optical and magnetic properties. However, a satisfactory description of its
properties is still not available. There ...
MODELING OF RING RESONATOR AS AN OPTICAL FILTER USING MEEP SOFTWARE
(University of Eldoret, 2016)
Ring resonators are key components in modern optical networks. Their small size allows high density integration in optical photonic circuits due to the use of high index contrast. Ring resonator filters based Optical Filters ...
CRYSTALLIZATION OF HELIUM-3 AND NEUTRON MATTER FERMIONS IN CONDENSED MATTER PHYSICS
(University of Eldoret, 2017)
In this Thesis crystallization of a hard-sphere assembly of fermions with densities ranging from low to high values has been theoretically investigated, the fermions are very close to each other, and the interaction between ...
ASSESSMENT OF WIND CHARACTERISTICS AND POWER POTENTIAL AT KESSES LOCATION - UASIN-GISHU COUNTY, KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2015)
Wind energy is increasingly becoming popular all over the world as a green energy
source for electricity generation since it is renewable and environmentally friendly.

OPTIMAL DESIGN FOR SECOND-DEGREE KRONECKER MODEL MIXTURE EXPERIMENTS FOR MAXIMAL PARAMETER SUBSYSTEM
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
Products in many disciplines frequently involve blending two or more ingredients
together. The design factors in a mixture experiment are the proportions of the
components of a blend, and the response variables vary ...
MODELLING OF OPTICAL FIBRE SENSOR BASED ON STIMULATEDBRILLOUIN SCATTERING
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
Distributed fibre optic sensing presents unique features that have no match in
conventional sensing techniques. The ability to measure temperatures and strain at
thousands of points along a single mode fibre is ...
PERFORMANCE OF VCSEL AT 10 Gb/s IN G.655 AND G.652 SSMF IN THE 1310 nm AND 1550 nm TRANSMISSION WINDOWS
(University of Eldoret, 2017)
Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) are now major optical sources in optical
communication and technology. The VCSEL-based transmission systems satisfy the next
generation optical fibre access networks ...
