Optimisation Of Filament Geometry For Gas Sensor Application

S. Gidon, M. Brun, and S. Nicoletti
CEA Minatec, Optronic Department, Grenoble, France

Monitoring of indoor CO2 concentration is of particular interest to detect room occupancy in order to optimise power consumptions of building. One technological approach is to use optical detection using specific absorption lines of CO2 molecules in the infrared domain close to 4.2 &mu ... Read More

Interfacing Continuum and Discrete Methods: Convective Diffusion of Microparticles and Chemical Species in Microsystems

J. Berthier
CEA-LETI, Department of Biotechnology, Grenoble, France

Convective transport of macromolecules or micro and nanoparticles in microsystems are usually predicted by solving the Navier Stokes equations for the carrier fluid and a concentration equation for the diffusing species. In the case of isolated particles or complicated geometries with ... Read More

Rapid Prototyping of Biosensing Surface Plasmon Resonance Devices using COMSOL & Matlab software

J.J. Dubowski[1], and D.Carrier[1]
[1]Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Université de Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada

We present a Finite Element Method simulation procedure that allows rapid development of prototype devices comprising novel self-referenced interference SPR (surface plasmon resonance) biosensing microstructures. The procedure takes advantage of COMSOL Multiphysics and MATLAB software ... Read More

Plasmonic Properties of Bimetal Nanoshell Cylinders and Spheres

K. Ehrhold[1], S. Christiansen[1,2], and U. Gösele[1]
[1]Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics, Halle, Germany,
[2]Institute of Photonic Technology, Jena, Germany

Plasmonics is a new branch of the fascinating field of photonics and develops concepts to quench light beyond the diffraction limit and enhance electromagnetic fields. These enhancements occur in metals as localized surface plasmon polaritons (LSP) a coupling of the surface density ... Read More

Model of an Interdigitated Microsensor to Detect and Quantify Cells Flowing in a Test Chamber

E. Bianchi[1], F. Boschetti[1], G. Dubini[1], and C. Guiducci[2]
[1]Politecnico di Milano, LABS, Laboratory of Biological Structure Mechanics, Structural Engineering Department, MI, Italy
[2]CLSE - Swiss Up Chair -Laboratory of Life Science Electronics, EPFL, Losanna, Swissland

Microfabricated planar interdigitated electrodes can detect and analyze cells or particles giving an impedance-based characterization. This method presents several advantages: real-time detection, label-free analysis, non-invasive sensing, easiness of integration and high-throughput ... Read More

Multiphysics Analysis of an Infrared Bolometer

J. S. Crompton [1], J. Thomas [1], K. Koppenhoefer [1],
[1] AltaSim Technologies, Columbus, OH, USA

Bolometers are used in a number of applications including night vision cameras, astronomy, and particle physics to measure the power of incident electromagnetic radiation. The general principle of operation is shown below: a strip of conducting material is exposed to incident ... Read More

Mathematical Investigation and CFD Simulation of Monolith Reactors: Catalytic Combustion of Methane

M. Ghadrdan[1], and H. Mehdizadeh[2]
[1]Department of Chemical Engineering, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Trondheim, Norway
[2]Department of Chemical Engineering, Tarbiat Modares University, Tehran, Iran

Interest in the production of hydrogen from hydrocarbons has grown significantly recently. In order to achieve high surface to volume ratio with reasonable pressure drop, monolithic reactors are used. The goal of this work is to develop a two-phase (gas & solid) transient catalytic ... Read More

A Novel Free-standing Evanescent Waveguide for Sensing

X. Meng [1], Y. Xin [1], P. French [1],
[1] Department of Microelectronics, Delft University of Technology, Delft, Netherland

Introduction The monitoring of bacteria concentration in drain fluid is the most common way to estimate the success of a colon surgery. However, the lack of efficient method to follow the development of E.coli in drain fluid after surgery is often fatal to the patient. The proposed ... Read More

COMSOL Multiphysics® Contribution to the Current Knowledge of the Proton Mass

M. Schuh [1],
[1] Max-Planck-Institut for Nuclear Physics, Heidelberg, Germany

Penning-trap mass spectrometers are the tools of choice for mass-ratio measurements of two different single ions with highest precision. The investigated ions are stored consecutively in a combination of an electric quadrupole potential and a homogeneous magnetic field at ultra-high ... Read More

The 3D Mixed-Dimensional Quench Model of a High Aspect Ratio High Temperature Superconducting Coated Conductor Tape

W.K. Chan[1,2], J. Schwartz[2], P. Masson[3], and C. Luongo[4]
[1]FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, Tallahassee, FL, USA
[2]North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC, USA
[3]Advanced Magnet Lab, Palm Bay, FL, USA
[4]ITER Organization/Magnet Division, Saint Paul-lez-Durance, France

A successful development of an effective quench detection and protection method for a high temperature superconducting (HTS) coil based on a HTS coated conductor tape lays on a thorough understanding of its slowly propagating, three-dimension (3D) quench behavior. Toward this goal, a 3D ... Read More
