We modify a Tunnel Effect Microscope (STM) with the purpose of analyzing the local production of photons in the electrostatic junction during the image taking process. The novelty of this project compared to previous studies is that it is intended to be developed from the beginning as ... 詳細を見る

Applications of mid-infrared photonic technologies are fueled by innovative advances in quantum cascade lasers, and other key optical components like MEMS gratings and fiber-optics. The integration of devices into optoelectronic packages for stable operation at high powers poses also ... 詳細を見る

The acceleration of protons and ions by highly intense, ultra-short laser pulses is a very active field of experimental and theoretical research. From laser-plasma interactions the emission of a strong electromagnetic pulse (EMP) has often been reported as a side effect. It potentially ... 詳細を見る

Damages caused by lightning overvoltages remains to be an important issue for electrical industry, putting limitations for efficiency of transmission and distribution of electrical energy. Modern solutions for lightning protection such as multichamber arresters (MCA) for overhead ... 詳細を見る

Introduction: Acoustic levitators are used to levitate small samples (ca. 0.01 - 6 mm) at a stable position in a gas or liquid environment. Acoustic levitators were first developed und used for experiments in space (1970s, by NASA / ESA), the application later became terrestrial (1990s). ... 詳細を見る

Micromachined ultrasound transducers can work as a sensor or actuator for measuring fluid speed and direction, mixing and exciting particles (sonication), taking images (ultrasonography), non-destructive testing and many other purposes in various fields. In this work, a COMSOL ... 詳細を見る

In the last few years printable electronics has gained a great deal of interest since it promises mechanical flexibility and extremely low production costs. One approach to achieve printable electronic devices relies on the usage of specific inks containing e.g. dispersed semiconductor ... 詳細を見る

Alternating 200 kHz electric fields ~2 V/cm (Tumor Treating Fields, ‘TTFields’) kill cancer cells by disrupting the delicate orchestration of chromosome spindle formation, but the exact mechanism of action is unknown. The likely suspects are polarized intracellular molecules such as ... 詳細を見る

The transport of fluid through nanochannels is of importance in a variety of technological applications, including biological sensing, energy storage and conversion, chemical separation and many others. Synthetic nanofluidic architectures that mimic the gating functions of biological ion ... 詳細を見る
