Theoretical study of the photoconductivity mechanism of the structure “carbon nanotubes – silicon substrate”

The types of optical radiation photodetectors have been considered according to the operating principle. The photoconductivity mechanism of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) deposited on a silicon substrate has been investigated theoretically. A comparison of the CNTs band gap with illuminating beam the quantum energy has been conducted. The heating and cooling cycles under the influence of a distributed surface energy source have been simulated. It has been established that CNTs on a silicon substrate have thermal-type photoconductivity. The sensitive element of the IR sensor based on this structure can be classified as a bolometric type

Analysis and optimization of photonics devices manufacturing technologies based on carbon nanotubes

The analysis and optimization of optical devices manufacturing technologies based on carbon nanotubes intended for work in the terahertz range were carried out. These processes studied in the work have practical application for the deposition of carbon nanotubes and their subsequent use as materials for prototypes of the waveguide and sensor of the terahertz range. To obtain a layer of carbon nanotubes, a chemical vapor deposition chamber was used. Various aspects of the synthesis and growth of the mechanism of CNT are considered in this article. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were grown on a sandwich structure based on a silicon wafer, where a layer of aluminum and copper 100 nm thick was deposited, then an iron catalyst was applied about 5 nm thick, and then copper and aluminum were deposited again, but with a thickness of 10 nm layer is also using magnetron sputtering. The growth was carried out with two variable parameters: flow rate and flow duration

Management of adherence-based treatment. Consensus document – Clinical guidelines. English version [упРАВЛЕНИЕ ЛЕЧЕНИЕМ НА ОСНОВЕ пРИВЕРЖЕННОСТИ. КОНСЕНСуСНЫй ДОКуМЕНТ – КЛИНИЧЕСКИЕ РЕКОМЕНДАЦИИ. АНГЛОЯзЫЧНАЯ ВЕРСИЯ]

Consensus Document «Management of adherence-based treatment» developed based on clinical guidelines of Russian Scientific Medical Society of Internal Medicine approved by the XIV National Congress of physicians (Moscow, 20 November 2019). The document is intended primarily to assess adherence to drug therapy, adherence to lifestyle modification, and adherence to medical support for patients who need long-term or permanent treatment. The document’s authors considered the treatment adherence unanimously as the compliance of the patient’s behavior with the recommendations received from the Doctor regarding medication, dieting, and other measures of lifestyle modifications. Insufficient adherence to treatment is a global problem. Assessing adherence as a basis for making medical decisions is an essential element of improving the quality of the healthcare system. Predictions of treatment outcomes cannot be considered effective if individualized levels of adherence are not used to justify project planning and evaluation. In medical practice, quantitative assessment of adherence is preferred, suitable for patients with various diseases, and with the possibility of automated data entry and processing. Therefore, sections on medical interventions based on the assessment of treatment adherence should be reflected in national clinical guidelines. These Joint Recommendations are based on these provisions. © Group of authors, 202

Treatment management based on adherence: Patient recommendation algorithms. Cross-disciplinary guidelines [УПРАВЛЕНИЕ ЛЕЧЕНИЕМ НА ОСНОВЕ ПРИВЕРЖЕННОСТИ: АЛГОРИТМЫ РЕКОМЕНДАЦИЙ ДЛЯ ПАЦИЕНТОВ. МЕЖДИСЦИПЛИНАРНЫЕ РЕКОМЕНДАЦИИ]

The algorithms (sample templates) of recommendations for patients, which are an integral part of adherence-based treatment management technologies, were developed by an interdisciplinary Working Group coordinated by the Treatment Adherence Section of the Russian Scientific Medical Society of Physicians. The Working Group includes opinion leaders and experts in the therapeutic, gastroenterology, cardiology, preventive medicine, gerontology, oncology, hematology, immunology, phthisiopulmonology, infectious diseases, oncohematology, neurology, intensive care, rehabilitation and other specialties, both involved by the section of RSMSIM, and recommended by the Gastroenterological Scientific Society of Russia, National Association of experts in Thrombosis, Clinical Hemostasiology and Hemorheology, Gerontological Society of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Russian Oncohematologists Society, Russian Society of Phthisiatrists, Society of Evidence-based Neurology. The algorithms are based on the materials of «The First Russian Consensus on Quantitative Assessment of adherence to treatment», approved by the XII National Congress of Internal Medicine (2017) and Clinical Guidelines «Treatment Management on the Basis of adherence», approved by the XIV National Congress of Internal Medicine (2019), taking into account the Consenting Document - Interdisciplinary Guidelines of RSMSIM, GSSR, NATH, SEN, GSRAS, ROHS, RSP «Treatment Management on the Basis of Adherence» (2020). The algorithms of treatment strategies are recommended by the Working Group to be used as a basis for inclusion into relevant sections of clinical guidelines and clinical handbooks developed by professional medical communities, as well as for use by practitioners in medical practice. © 2020 Stavropol State Medical University.
