This paper reports the modelling and analysis of three dimensional negative dielectrophoretic traps for cell trapping applications. Dielectrophoresis is a well-established technique for cell analysis and cell trapping. Planar electrodes, at the bottom of a microfluidic channel, have been ... Read More
The Levitron offers an interesting demonstration of natural magnetic levitation using permanent magnets. It is composed by a small magnetized top and a circular magnetized base with a hole on its center. The top is placed in an area where magnetic field configuration and gyroscopic ... Read More
Non-charge-based logic is the notion that an electron can be trapped and its spin manipulated through application of gate voltages. Numerical simulations of Spin Single Electron Transistors (SSET) at University at Albany, aimed at practical development of post-CMOS concepts and devices ... Read More
This poster presents the design and analysis of a novel horseshoe shaped MEMS actuator for adaptive optics. The actuation mechanism is Lorentz force enabling low current (below 10 mA) operation. The actuator combined with an overlying aluminum coated SU-8 soft polymer membrane for the ... Read More
This paper describes the implementation of an app for calculating low frequency electric fields outside electrical installations. The app is based on a 2D parametric geometry chosen in such a way that it approximates a large class of electrical installations, which consist of a tower or ... Read More
This paper presents a methodology towards designing, analyzing and optimizing piezoelectric interdigitated microactuators using COMSOL Multiphysics. The models used in this study were based on a circularly interdigitated design that takes advantage of primarily the d{;sub}33 ... Read More
The paper addresses a class of problems for modeling and consequently simulating the electromagnetic field radiation pattern from a two arm Archimedes spiral coil. The performance of particular interest is knowledge of the radiated magnetic field H and electric field E in the ... Read More
Electric field can bring liquid in motion and thus influence heat transfer. Electro-convection (EC) can be caused by electric forces acting on a liquid, even in absence of space charge. Here, we studied heat transfer in a metal vessel filled by oil, with a submersed high voltage ... Read More
Electrospray propulsion is a contemporary type of thruster technology that electrostatically drives particles through an extractor grid without the need of a pump. The basis of this propulsion system is the coalescence of propellant into a Taylor cone and through a charged extraction ... Read More
A Piezoelectric Directional Microphone is demonstrated based on a bio-mimetic design inspired by the parasitoid fly Ormia ochracea using the PiezoMUMPs multi-user foundry. The device simulation was conducted using COMSOL Multiphysics® software which achieves a directional sound field ... Read More
