A research paper that present by Professor Salah I. Yahya from the Department of Software Engineering, Faculty of Engineering at Koya University  in the 2019 Asia-Pacific Microwave Conference (APMC) that held on 10-13 December 2019, has been deposited to the IEEE Xplore . The paper entitled "A Novel Harmonic Attenuator Quad-Channel Microstrip Diplexer for Multi-Service Communication Systems," 

Professor Salah I. Yahya from the Department of Software Engineering, Faculty of Engineering at Koya University with a research group from Iran, Vietnam and Malaysia published a research article entitled “Design of a low-loss microstrip diplexer with a compact size based on coupled meandrous open-loop resonators” in the Analog Integrated Circuits and Signal Processing Journal. The paper presents design and fabrication of a novel microstrip diplexer. It has two quite close channels at 1.67 GHz and 1.88 GHz make it suitable for FDD schemes and GSM applications.

Dr. Fahmi F. Mohammadsharif at the Department of Physics, Faculty of Science and Health, Koya University Published a new resaerch articlle entitled "A new insight into the temperature induced molecular aggregations in tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) metals." The research article has been published in the Journal of Materials Research and Technology which indexed by Clarivate Analytics with IF=3.327 and SCOPUS with Level Q1. The article authors are: Fahmi F. Muhammadsharif, Suhairul Hashim, Khaulah Sulaiman, G. Baldacchini.

The results achived by this reseach article opened a new route of fabricating highly emissive thin films of amorphous nanostructure, which are specifically important for organic light emitting diode (OLED) based displays.
