In this paper, we present a practical solution to improve the performance of non-metallic transparent enclosures (NTE) using gold Nano-layer deposition. Firstly, based on Robinson et al. method, an analytical model is introduced to approximately estimate shielding effectiveness of transparent enclosures. While Robinson et al. model cannot analyses NTE, due to its inability to take into account multi-layer panel effects and another effective analytical model has not been reported in previous works, proposed analytical model have an acceptable agreement with simulation and measurement results. In the next step, by making a tradeoff between shielding effectiveness and optical transparency, an optimum thickness of gold Nano layer is selected and deposited on the ITO glass panels by thermal evaporation technique, to improve the NTE performance. Finally, to assess the performance optimization method, results of copper, ITO Glass, and gold deposited enclosures are compared to introduce gold deposited ITO Glass enclosure provides good shielding effectiveness similar to copper one (about 20dB better than ITO Glass enclosure) as well as acceptable optical transparency in visible range, whereas metallic enclosures cannot provide any transparency.

Aim and The recent discovery about the "miRNA expression is frequently altered in cancer," and since it is now the second leading cause of cancer mortality in human society, it has opened a new direction of research. In the past several years, a very different approach to the development of various methods for the detection of miRNA biomarkers has been used. Over the past decade, an enormous progress has been made in the use of nanotechnology for molecular diagnostics.
Material and For the preparation of gold nanoparticles, a certain proportion of sodium citrate and HAuCl4 3 H2O were combined with each other. The mean diameter of the gold nanoparticles was calculated using the Zeta sizer. The ratios of specific oligonucleotide were added to the nanoparticles, nanoprobes made were exposed to target sequences, and the fluctuations of surface plasmons were investigated by UV-visible spectrometer.
The mean diameter of the gold nanoparticles synthesized was measured by Zeta sizer about 20 nm, respectively. The optimal concentration of oligonucleotide for binding to nanoparticles was about 5pM measured by UV-visible spectrometer. The detection limit of this method for the synthesis of a single strand of miRNA with the 23mer, is about 5pM.
The study showed that gold nanoparticles prepared by citrate reduction method for the detection of miRNA biomarkers by using SPR properties of gold nanoparticles is possible.

Application of carbon nanotube reinforced polymers in space industry is widely dispread due to the unique and multi-purpose properties of them Therefore, extraction of electrical and electromagnetic properties of nanocomposite materials in the frequency band of 12.4 to 18 GHz is an important issue in their development procedure. In this paper, experimental investigations on electrical and electromagnetic properties of carbon nanotube reinforced polymers are performed. The investigated properties include AC and DC electrical conductivities, permittivity, transmission and reflection coefficients, loss tangent and skin depth in Ku frequency band (12.4-18 GHz). The in situ polymerization method is selected to fabricate multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/Vinylester nanocomposite. Ultrasonic device is used for dispersion of CNTs in resin and then Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) is employed for measurement of electrical properties of specimens. Weight fraction of MWCNT is chosen between 0.1 to 3 % in order to evaluate the influence of CNT content on investigated properties. Finally, equivalent circuit model is used to describe the observed behavior on the basis of semi-empirical study.
