Implementing Thermometry on Silicon Surfaces Functionalized by Lanthanide-Doped Self-Assembled Polymer Monolayers
Noncontact thermometric techniques with high-spatial resolution are essential for noninvasive off-chip characterization and heat management on Si surfaces.
Monitoring of malolactic fermentation in wine using an electrochemical bienzymatic biosensor for L-lactate with long term stability
The development of an amperometric biosensor for L-lactate determination showing long-term stability is reported in this work.
Integrated Photonic Nanofences: Combining Subwavelength Waveguides with an Enhanced Evanescent Field for Sensing Applications
Photonic nanofences consisting of high aspect ratio polymeric optical subwavelength waveguides done by two-photon polymerization have shown extremely large evanescent field (70-90% of the total coupled light).
Nanoparticles with tunable shape and composition fabricated by nanoimprint lithography
Cone-like and empty cup-shaped nanoparticles of noble metals provide extraordinary optical properties for optical nanoantennas or nanoresonators. However, their large-scale production is difficult.
Self-suspended vibration-driven energy harvesting chip for power density maximization
This work introduces a new concept to integrate energy-harvesting devices with the aim of improving their throughput, mainly in terms of scavenged energy density and frequency tunability.
Nanomechanical properties of solvent cast polystyrene and poly(methyl methacrylate) polymer blends and self-assembled block copolymers
The nanomechanical properties of solvent-cast polymer thin films have been investigated using PeakForce™ Quantitative Nanomechanical Mapping. The samples consisted of films of polystyrene and poly(methyl methacrylate).
Assessing the local nanomechanical properties of self-assembled block copolymer thin films by peak force tapping
The mechanical properties of several types of block copolymer thin films have been investigated using PeakForce quantitative nanomechanical mapping. The samples consisted of polystyrene/poly(methylmethacrylate) with thickness below 50 nm and features of less than 22 nm.
