Strain induced by local deformation of a flexible micrometer-sized semiconductor tube is quantified by modeling a ball pressing on the tube wall. By changing the pressing condition, we are able to change the strain state of the tube wall incorporating self-assembled quantum dots (QDs) in ... Read More
In this work we investigate a wet-chemical silicon etching process. COMSOL Multiphysics® is used to extract local pressure values to correlate them to experimental results. The test setup consists of a box with a fixed wafer and a nozzle that injects an etchant jet onto the wafer ... Read More
It is possible to control the motion of magnetic beads using a combination of hydrodynamic and electromagnetic forces. In this work, we investigate the possibility to manipulate the motion of beads with different magnetic moments in a special microfluidic structure so as to separate ... Read More
The Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC) is home to the UK’s National Centre for Net Shape and Additive Manufacturing, offering integrated solutions to potential end users, supply chain companies or equipment providers using a three phase approach: discovery, demonstration and pilot ... Read More
Finite element modelling of electrical machines usually assumes uniform magnetic properties and loss behaviour throughout the steel laminations. It is well known that manufacturing processes, like the assembly of the machine, deteriorate the properties of the core material. Generally, ... Read More
Structural Health Monitoring Systems are being highly investigated to evaluate the health of a structure and detect any damages occurring in real time. Such systems require intensive data analysis which gets even more intricate when working with complex structures due to undesirable ... Read More
Most of the reported studies on the electrical characteristics of biological cells assume that they have simple shapes like spheres or ellipsoids due to the lack of information about their accurate 3D shape. However, the actual shape of a cell can be quite fractal and it must be taken ... Read More
On the surface of an optical waveguide, there is an evanescent field. The evanescent field decays fast and this steep gradient can be used to pull nano- and microparticles down towards the waveguide surface. Radiation forces will propel the particle forward along the waveguide. Trapping ... Read More
A portable device that can identify protein and peptides real time in complex biological systems such as human bodily fluids reliably and accurately is in high demand to properly diagnose and treat medical conditions. Lynntech has developed an innovative Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) based ... Read More
The photoacoustic (PA) effect consisting of the generation of an acoustic signal based on the absorption of light has already demonstrated its potential for various spectroscopic applications for both gaseous and solid samples. The signal produced during photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) ... Read More
