In this study, thin film Zinc oxide (ZnO) deposited by thermal evaporation techniques on unheated glass substrates. The findings of X-ray diffraction (XRD) show that the ZnO films are amorphous before annealing. The subsequent diffraction patterns demonstrate that the films crystalline into polycrystalline mixed Tetragonal α-ZnO compounds and Orthorhombic ß-ZnO compounds. Atomic power microscope (AFM) shows that the ZnO films are of a large homogeneous surface. The median crystallite size is calculated from XRD data, which are increased for all thickness with an increasing ringing temperature and are less than the AFM data. The findings of the optical properties show that with rising annealing temperature for all thicknesses, the transmittance decreases. ZnO film shows transmittance that exceeds 95% in the IR radiation area of the spectrum at the lower thickness of 60 nm annealed at 523 K for 2 hr, but decreases to 87% percent with increasing annealing temperatures, although ZnO films with thicknesses of 130 nm annealed at 723 K for 2 hr have a transmittance of 94 % and 88 % in the IR region, but decreases High transmission in the IR area reveals that ZnO films are good materials for agricultural applications. All the prepared ZnO-thin films were n-type semiconductors and it is known that the concentration of the carriers (n) and the conductivity (σ) increased with an ever-greater annealing temperature, while their mobility (μ) and resistivity () is reduced with an increase in the annealing temperature.

Developing smart city planning requires integrating various techniques, including geospatial techniques, building information models (BIM), information and communication technology (ICT), and artificial intelligence, for instance, three-dimensional (3D) building models, in enabling smart city applications. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the role and significance of geospatial techniques in smart city planning and implementation. The literature review encompasses (74) studies from diverse databases, examining relevant solutions and prototypes related to smart city planning. The focus highlights the requirements and preparation of geospatial techniques to support the transition to a smart city. The paper explores various aspects,

Abstract:
Interest in the topic of prediction has increased in recent years and appeared modern methods such as Artificial Neural Networks models, if these methods are able to learn and adapt self with any model, and does not require assumptions on the nature of the time series. On the other hand, the methods currently used to predict the classic method such as Box-Jenkins may be difficult to diagnose chain and modeling because they assume strict conditions.

Background: Bacteriocin is a peptidic toxin has many advantages to bacteria in their ecological niche and has strong antibacterial activity. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluation of bacteriocin using Streptococcus sanguinis isolated from human dental caries.
Subjects and Methods: Thirty five streptococcus isolates were diagnosed and tested for their production of bacteriocin, and then the optimal conditions for production of bacteriocin were determined. After that, the purification of bacteriocin was made partially by ammonium sulfate at 95% saturation levels, followed by and gel filtration chromatography

In the present work, heterojunction diode detectors will be prepared using germanium wafers as a substrate material and 200 nm tin sulfide thickness will be evaporated by using thermal evaporation method as thin film on the substrate. Nd:YAG laser (λ=532 nm) with different energy densities (5.66 J/cm2 and 11.32 J/cm2) is used to diffuse the SnS inside the surface of the germanium samples with 10 laser shots in different environments (vacuum and distilled water). I-V characteristics in the dark illumination, C-V characteristics, transmission measurements, spectral responsivity and quantum efficiency were investigated at 300K. The C-V measurements have shown that the heterojunction were of abrupt type and the maximum value of build-in pot

After the revolution of July 14, 1958, the Kurds welcomed it, and the leaders of the Kurdistan Democratic Party sent a telegram to the Free Officers Organization congratulating them on the new era in order to build sound and correct relations between the two parties. However, the military conflict was renewed between the Iraqi government and the Kurds and continued even after the coup of February 8, 1963, and all the subsequent negotiating and peaceful attempts to resolve the Kurdish problem until 1966. It was a state of double contradiction for both parties that thwarted the peaceful attempts. The
