Authors: Nagasawa Tsuyoshi , Kobayashi Kenta , Watanabe Ruka , Takeuchi Tetsuya , Kamiyama Satoshi , Iwaya Motoaki , Kamei Toshihiro
Published: June 2023

We developed an in situ cavity length control of GaN-based vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) with an in situ reflectivity spectra measurement. Firstly, a temperature dependence of a center wavelength of a 40-pair AlInN/GaN DBR was investigated, resulting in a 23 nm redshift from RT to GaN growth temperature of 1100 °C. Secondly, a periodic oscillation of a reflectivity intensity during the GaN cavity growth on the DBR was clearly observed, providing precise cavity length information. Thirdly, based on both the results, we performed the in situ GaN cavity length control, showing an accuracy within a 0.5% error. We finally demonstrated the in situ cavity length control of an actual GaN-based VCSEL structure containing n-layers, a GaInN active region, and p-layers by selecting different resonance wavelengths along with the corresponding growth temperatures for the layers.

Published: June 2023

We present an effective protocol for extracting localization energy from WSe2 monolayers, based on temperature-dependent spectral variation of photoluminescence (PL), and observe time-sequential changes over a long period of time. We found that even freshly exfoliated WSe2 exhibits deviation from the Varshni formula upon exposure to air, while the temperature-dependent PL lineshapes of h-BN encapsulated WSe2 match well with delocalized features for as long as two years of the aging period. Our findings support the prospect of h-BN encapsulation for monoatomic transition metal dichalcogenides to meet the longevity condition, which is a prerequisite for practical components in the electronics industry.

Comparison of AHP and SAW Methods to Determine Outstanding Lecturers
Authors: Hidayah Debby Ummul
Published: June 2023

The selection of outstanding lecturers in an Information Systems study program at XYZ University is currently still done conventionally. That is, it is still subjective and has not used special calculation methods to support decisions. Thus, it is necessary to have an appropriate decision support system to assist in determining outstanding lecturers objectively. The method used in this research is the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and simple additive weighting (SAW). From the calculation of the two methods, the final result is a decision to select an outstanding lecturer in the same Information Systems study program, namely Mr. Argiyan Dwi Pritama. The results obtained from the AHP calculation yield a value of 1.46 while the SAW calculation produces a value of 0.522. From the AHP calculation, it can be concluded that the use of too many alternatives makes the ranking process too complex. Meanwhile, based on the SAW calculation, the technical calculation is very suitable for many alternatives, so it is more effective and efficient to use.

From Pre-Pandemic to Post-Pandemic Struggles to Meet Sustainable Development Goals
Authors: KC Birendra
Published: June 2023

The need to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is universal for all high-, middle-, and low-income nations, but the momentum was disrupted by COVID-19. Tourism is an important sector to address SDGs where the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) emphasizes the positive role tourism could play toward meeting those goals. This paper is conceptually grounded within the scope of the SDGs and uses a case study approach. It uses the case of Nepal, a developing country, to demonstrate the struggles of developing nations to meet SDGs within the context of the pandemic. Based on the literature and available secondary data, similar cases are discussed to establish relevance for global contexts by reflecting how other developing nations with troubled tourism ecosystems due to the pandemic will negatively impact the movement on meeting SDGs. Further, future directions are proposed to gain momentum toward responding to the SDGs. Indeed, developing nations will struggle more than others, as the priority has been to deal with the COVID-19 impacts with limited available resources.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the tourism sector was the strongest sector in the world economy. The great strength of the tourism sector is proven by the rapid recovery of the sector after the COVID-19 pandemic. The tourism sector includes several things, including exhibitions, expos, and festivals. The purpose of this study was to find out how the rational thinking process of the Bener Meriah Regency government was used in choosing a sector for marketing Gayo coffee. This study used a qualitative approach with interview and observation techniques. The results of this study show that the tourism sector is one of the choices for the Bener Meriah Regency government in marketing Gayo coffee products. The tourism sector, in this case, is exhibition, expo, and festival activities. This activity is considered beneficial for Gayo coffee marketing because it can directly bring together coffee producers with tourists who are potential customers. Therefore, the Bener Meriah Regency government, taking into account (rational) resources and profits, chose the tourism sector to market Gayo coffee.

Authors: Ismail Khodijah
Published: June 2023

This study aims to analyze the involvement of fisherwomen in managing tourism villages and the relationship between actors involved in tourism management. The researcher chose Benan Island as the research location, one of the small islands in Lingga Regency, Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach, and the interpretation of the results of data analysis uses spidergram images according to the priority scale. Data collection uses the method of study documentation, observation, Focus Group Discussion, and in-depth interviews. The study results show that fisherwomen's level of involvement in village tourism management still needs to be higher. The management of tourism in the village has a top-down pattern. Namely, the district government assigns village tourism management personnel. Such a management system makes it difficult for the women's community to participate actively.

Authors: Kumar Parshant , Jain Amit , Uikey Gunjan Kumar , Kalsan Sachin
Published: June 2023

Background: Laparoscopic surgery has become the procedure of choice for treating appendicitis. But in this evolving era, single incision laparoscopic surgery for appendicitis is gaining importance because of its cosmetic benefits. So, here we compared outcomes of two laparoscopic surgeries in terms of intraoperative time, postoperative pain, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative tolerance to diet, postoperative complications & cosmesis. Method: A total of 100 patients who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy were studied. Patients were grouped under 2 categories randomly, group A undergoing single incision laparoscopic appendectomy (SILA) & group B undergoing conventional three port laparoscopic appendectomy (CLA). Post operatively, duration of surgery, post-operative time, post-operative hospital stay, tolerance to diet, patients satisfaction were monitored. Result: Our study included 100 patients- 50 in group A(SILA) & 50 in group B(CLA). Duration of surgery was significantly longer in group A as compared to group B(42.77 min vs 35.47 min ; p<0.001). Patients had significantly lower pain score at 24 hours postoperatively in group A as compared to group B(3.38 vs 4.62, p<0.001). Post-surgical complications in terms of superficial surgical site infection were more in group A(4 vs 2, p ). There was no significant difference in postoperative hospital stay and tolerance to oral feed postoperatively. There was no conversion to open appendectomy in both the groups. There was significant higher patients satisfaction score in group A patients (8.40 vs 6.12, p<0.001). Conclusion: In addition to better cosmesis after SILA, SILA inflicts considerable less pain postoperatively than CLA with no significant differences in postoperative tolerance to oral diet, surgical site complications & hospital stay.

Pseudoaneurysm of Ulnar Artery – A Case Report
Authors: Itty Seena Susan , S Sankar,
Published: June 2023

Digital artery pseudoaneurysms are rare lesions that usually result from a blunt or penetrating injury. The thrombus that can develop within the pseudoaneurysm can be a potential source for embolisation, putting the distal tissue at risk for ischemia/necrosis. So it is important to identify these lesions at the earliest and repair surgically. Here we present a case of 39 year old male, who presented to our hospital with a pulsatile, painful swelling on left palm. There was no history of any trauma in this case, but the ulnar vessel was in close proximity to the hook of hamate bone (carpal bone), which was found to be the precipitating factor. It was diagnosed as a case of pseudoaneurysm of distal ulnar artery and segmental resection was done with end to end anastomosis of ulnar artery. Post anastomotic vascularity of the digits was reassured.

Academic Excellence as Yardstick for Employability in Nigeria: A Review of the Experiences of Business Education Graduates in Public Tertiary Institutions in Enugu State
Authors: Vitalis Ugwu Ikenna , Gold Ohagwu Chiamaka
Published: June 2023

The main purpose of the study was to ascertain if academic excellence is a yardstick for employability in the Nigerian labour market. The study was guided by two research questions and two null hypotheses. The population consisted of 173 Business Education graduates from public tertiary institution offering Business Education programme in Enugu State in the 2019/2020 academic session. No sampling was carried out since the population was manageable. The instrument used for data collection was a 17-itemed questionnaire developed by the researcher. The instrument was validated by three experts and the reliability of the instrument was determined using Crombach Alpha which yielded reliability index of 0.88. The instrument was administered by the researcher. 160 out of 173 copies of the questionnaire were well responded to, returned and therefore, used for data analysis representing 93 percent return rate. Mean and standard deviation were used for data analysis and correlation statistics was used to test the null hypotheses. Findings showed that: High and low achievers get jobs at same rate, Doing well on the job does not depend on grade, High achievers are more creative on jobs, Employers seek skills more than grade, Good grade does not guarantee employability, Job creation is targeted at both high and low achievers are some of the factors to prove that academic excellence is not a yardstick for employability in Nigeria. The null hypotheses showed that no significant relationship exist in the mean responses of high and low achieving Business Education graduates in public tertiary institutions in Enugu State on the itemized variables. Based on the findings, it was recommended among others that Attention should be shifted from academic excellence as yardstick for employability in Nigeria so that students are not pressured into dubious means just to graduate with high grades since findings of the study has shown that the both variables has no direct relationship. Employment opportunities should be massively created for all enough for both high and low academic performers since the findings of the study revealed that those with low academic performance can also have valuable skills capable of keeping them on the job for as long as they intend to.

Connected, automated, shared, and electric (CASE) technologies have invoked Mobility 4.0—a connected, digitized, multimodal, and autonomous system of systems. This project established a flexible and adaptable blueprint that would streamline multidisciplinary and multistakeholder efforts as well as leverage available resources to prepare the Illinois Department of Transportation and other transportation agencies. Illinois has several strengths that make it an attractive location for CASE technology companies, including a talent pool from top-ranked universities, well-developed transportation infrastructure, government support, and a robust ecosystem of collaboration and innovation. Illinois also faces potential challenges (e.g., competition from other states and countries, limited access to funding, regulatory hurdles, and infrastructure readiness for new mobility technologies). Seven smart mobility pillars were identified in this study for Illinois—namely, connected and automated (CA) freight, scaling intelligent transportation systems, farm automation, insurance, urban mobility, CA logistics, and alternative fuels. The balanced scorecard ranked the pillars as follows (from highest): alternative fuels, scaling intelligent transportation systems, CA freight, farm automation, CA logistics, insurance, and urban mobility. Tactical focus areas were also identified per pillar and were prioritized with suggested leads and stakeholders to champion the CASE directives and opportunities. Near-term actions for Illinois were also suggested that included establishing a central structure for Illinois’ CASE program, enriching the knowledge base and experience, preparing transportation infrastructure, partnerships with external stakeholders, and expansion of laws, regulations, and policies that will help administer and grow CASE technology deployment and integration.

Statement of the problem. The aim of the article is to establish the dynamics of the content of the basic concept Sicherheit (safety) in German linguistic culture. As the main research methods, the authors turn to the analysis of definitions of explanatory dictionaries, the analysis of the compatibility of the studied word, context analysis, free associative experiment. On the basis of the developed model of meaning, the authors compare the lexicographic data and the associative field of the stimulus word Sicherheit (safety). Results. Based on the comparison of the obtained data, the authors note that the integrative features identified in the compatibility of lexemes and the features identified in the associative experiment largely coincide (‘sources of security’, ‘safe situation in the world / national security’, ‘comfort, stability’, ‘personal emotional concepts’, ‘object of protection’, although they are different in quantitative meaning. At the same time, we note that the compatibility of the lexeme allows us to speak of mistrust of the possibility of a stable and safe situation as a whole. However, the data of the free associative experiment, on the contrary, allow us to speak about an extremely positive attitude to the concept under study. According to the corpus, the most common category is the category of confidence, which is represented in the associative experiment by a single reaction. The largest number of reactions in the associative experiment represent Sicherheit as a feeling of protection from various types of danger. Conclusion. For representatives of the German linguistic culture, the concept of Sicherheit(safety) is understood as a sense of security from danger, which can be guaranteed to an individual by the family or government authorities. Money is the guarantor of security. To achieve safety, it is necessary to comply with various safety rules and measures.

Published: June 2023

Problem statement. Today in conditions of modern development of digital technologies communication undergoes substantial changes which influence the character and form of people`s interaction. Today communication is mainly carried out by means of text messages, being generated and percepted not only by means of technical devices, but also with the help of items of clothes. Text messages function like slogans, performing certain pragmatic function and are characterized by stylistic features. The research is aimed at determining stylistic features of the English slogans, represented by affirmative constructions. Their classification, quantitative analyses on the lexical, syntactic and phonetic levels are presented. Results. The slogans on clothes are characterized by poly-discourse character. Their pragmatic functions are realized by means of the following stylistic method: stylistic figures, rhetorical colours, phonetic stylistic means. The most popular stylistic method of the linguistic representation of the English slogans is stylistic figures. They include parallel construction, parcellings, phetorical questions, abbreviations, argumentation, conditional sentences and inversions. Conclusion. Stylistic methods used in slogans serve as translators of axiological perceptions of the representatives of the youth. The texts of slogans are characterized by combination of syntactical understatement, lexical density and semantic parallelism. The linguistic models relevant for the discourse of the youth are characterized by the use of laconic brief (block-like) information, truncated syntactic constructions, aimed at exerting intensive emotional influence on recipient. Prevailing affirmative syntactical constructions, representing the semantic features of creative, non-trivial attitude to themselves and the world is the key features of the discourse of the youth.

Authors: Berrefas M.
Published: June 2023

Statement of the problem. The paper is devoted to the study of the use of some female names by Lyudmila Ulitskaya on the material of the works "Sonechka" and "Medea and her children", because in the context of modern literature there are several factors of the choice of "female prose": the author is a woman, the main character is a woman. These issues are closely related to the lives of women, their special stylistic and semantic metaphors from the point of view of vocabulary, semantics and onomastics. Results. In this paper, the creativity of women writers is analyzed, the phenomenon of the use of the female names in the works of writers is described on the example of the selected works by Lyudmila Ulitskaya. This phenomenon has been studied by many linguists, historians and sociologists. The study addresses the issue of determining the possibilities of using some proper names as a source of reflection about real events and a means of linguistic and literary interpretation of the works of art. Conclusion. Analyzing the art works "Sonechka" and "Medea and her children", we could come to the conclusion that the writer draws a type of a modern woman with a rich inner and deep world, revealing an irresistible devotion to her family. Based on the conducted research, it can be argued that the writer uses female names to create a female art image. The name of the main character always plays the role of a sign-symbol that leads the reader to classical works, where usually all the heroines in the Russian literature, endowed with these names, have particular character traits.
«WHAT NOT TO WEAR»: MOTIVATIONAL DISCOURSE OF FASHION MAKEOVER SHOWS
Authors: Zavialova L.A.
Published: June 2023

Statement of the problem. Despite the popularity of fashion makeover shows on TV and on the Internet, communicative strategies that are employed by expert teams to boost participants’ self-esteem and motivate them to carry out actions that are beneficial for them have not yet come in the focus of research (e.g. participants could be encouraged to build a successful career). The paper argues that the discursive approach to analyse such shows makes it possible to identify communicative strategies to which experts resort on top of changing people’s looks (wardrobe overhaul, new hairstyle, etc.). Results. Drawing on the discourse analysis of the British makeover shows, it has been identified that fashion experts use a range of discursive strategies. The most common of them are Generalisation Strategy, Confessional Strategy and Complimenting Strategy. The results also demonstrate that members of the fashion team apply general rather than specialist knowledge when implementing these discursive strategies as it helps them to gain trust from participants and make participants more open to changes. Conclusion. Discourse analysis of the fashion makeover shows has indicated that beauty experts who create a new style for a participant use Generalisation Strategy, Confessional Strategy and Complimenting Strategy on top of different fashion tools (e.g. new clothes). These strategies help them to motivate people to change their self-deprecating attitude and carry out certain actions that are beneficial for them. Both new looks and discursive strategies enable makeover shows to reach the global communicative aim which is to bring about positive changes into personal and professional lives of participants.
