On the optical properties of Ag^{+15} ion-beam irradiated TiO_{2} and SnO_{2} thin films
The effects of 200-MeV Ag^{+15} ion irradiation on the optical properties of
TiO_{2} and SnO_{2} thin films prepared by using the RF magnetron sputtering
technique were investigated. These films were characterized by using UV-vis
spectroscopy, and with increasing irradiation fluence, the transmittance for
the TiO_{2} films was observed to increase systematically while that for
SnO_{2} was observed to decrease. Absorption spectra of the irradiated samples
showed minor changes in the indirect bandgap from 3.44 to 3.59 eV with
increasing irradiation fluence for TiO_{2} while significant changes in the
direct bandgap from 3.92 to 3.6 eV were observed for SnO_{2}. The observed
modifications in the optical properties of both the TiO_{2} and the SnO_{2}
systems with irradiation can be attributed to controlled structural
disorder/defects in the system.Comment: 6 pages, ICAMD-201

Myofibroma of the external auditory canal: report of an adult case
Myofibroma of the external auditory canal: report of an adult case. Objective: Myofibroma is a benign fibrous proliferative disease generally reported to occur in neonates and children. Similar lesions have been reported in adults, but solitary tumours affecting the external auditory canal are extremely rare. Only one such case has been reported in the literature
