Diffusion-Controlled Electron Transfer Processes and Power-Law Statistics of Fluorescence Intermittency of Nanoparticles
A mechanism involving diffusion-controlled electron transfer processes in Debye and non-Debye dielectric media is proposed to elucidate the power-law distribution for the lifetime of a blinking quantum dot. This model leads to two complementary regimes of power law with a sum of the exponents equal to 2, and to a specific value for the exponent in terms of a distribution of the diffusion correlation times. It also links the exponential bending tail with energetic and kinetic parameters
Exponentiated Extended Weibull-Power Series Class of Distributions
In this paper, we introduce a new class of distributions by compounding the
exponentiated extended Weibull family and power series family. This
distribution contains several lifetime models such as the complementary
extended Weibull-power series, generalized exponential-power series,
generalized linear failure rate-power series, exponentiated Weibull-power
series, generalized modified Weibull-power series, generalized Gompertz-power
series and exponentiated extended Weibull distributions as special cases. We
obtain several properties of this new class of distributions such as Shannon
entropy, mean residual life, hazard rate function, quantiles and moments. The
maximum likelihood estimation procedure via a EM-algorithm is presented.Comment: Accepted for publication Ciencia e Natura Journa
