ABSTRACT Repellent efficacies of two natural aroma compounds, citronella and citronellal, against mosquitoes, Culex pipiens pallens , were evaluated both in field vitro. In vitro the experiment was conducted with three controlled bands impregnated 30% extract, 15% extract citronellal field. Data obtained by means counting numbers bitten mosquitoes per unit time, namely human bait method. Percentage repellencies above calculated at 86%, 73%, 78%, respectively 80% field, showing high repellent...

Self-heating and related degradation in performance reliability are serious concerns realizing higher output power density microwave amplifiers. We demonstrated the integration of polycrystalline diamond on a fully fabricated metal-polar Schottky-gated AlGaN/GaN transistor for device-level cooling solution. The thermal budget process is carefully optimized so as not to degrade electrical device. Gate resistance thermometry measurement performed 1 × 200 μm2 device showed an average 111 °C...
Abstract The number of social hymenoptera have decreased due to accelerated urbanization in S eoul, K orea, during the 1970s–1990s.
