The importance of laser processing and thermal properties investigation of bulk materials and thin layers is still increasing. For thermal properties investigation many experimental systems were developed based on the photothermal effect. One of typical ways is to induce a rapid surface ... Read More
INTRODUCTION: Point of care diagnostics aimed at low-resource settings need to be relatively simple, robust and low-cost. The most commonly-used diagnostic platform in these settings is the lateral flow assay (LFA). LFAs are paper-based immunoassays designed to perform on-strip binding ... Read More
The detection back-action phenomenon has received little attention in physical, chemical, and biological sensors based on nanomechanical systems. We show that this effect is very significant in ultrathin bimetallic cantilevers, in which the laser beam that probes the picometer scale ... Read More
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 ... Read More
Binder jet printing (BJP) is one of the additive manufacturing methods that are being widely implemented as an efficient alternative for casting and machining in the automotive industry. Sintering densification of the as-printed part (green part) adds uncertainty and possible undesirable ... Read More
Surface Acoustic Wave devices are classic examples of Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS). These devices basically utilize inter-digitated electrodes (IDE) and a piezoelectric layer deposited over a substrate. The input IDT is supplied with alternating voltage and because of this, ... Read More
Increased demand for high power electronics has required increasingly more efficient thermal management techniques. Simple cold plates using tubes or channels are frequently used to cool high power components but restrictions on size, weight, and power have restricted their ... Read More
Photofrin-mediated photodynamic therapy (PDT) is used after surgical resection at the University of Pennsylvania to treat the microscopic disease for malignant pleural mesothelioma and to increase survival rate. When Photofrin is exposed to laser light at 630 nm in well-oxygenated ... Read More
Laser direct deposition is a process, different from molding or machining, which allows the producing of fully densified and operational components. This technique involves injecting metal powder through a coaxial nozzle into a melt pool obtained by a moving laser beam. The final object ... Read More
In this work we tackle a more theoretical aspect of micro-injection molding, to better understand physics during the process, through numerical simulations of cavity filling. We developed a two phase flow approach by the use of COMSOL Multiphysics®. In a first step, a Level Set model is ... Read More
