Microwave impedance microscopy (MIM) is a novel mode of atomic force microscopy that can measure topography and local electrical impedance simultaneously and with nanometer spatial resolution [1]. This technique is typically used qualitatively, identifying defects in nanodevices or ... Read More
Balises are an essential part of pointwise train control systems ensuring the operational safety. Combined with a corresponding onboard unit, it represents an inductive transponder system (Fig. 1). During a crossing, the balise is activated by the 27 MHz magnetic field of the vehicle ... Read More
The purpose of the study is to monitor human body hydration for medical monitoring. It has been shown that the hydration of the deep layers of the skin could reflect the hydration state of the body. Therefore a bioimpedance spectroscopy approach is developed in order to evaluate the skin ... Read More
One way to extract piezoelectric material data from measurements is to utilize vibrational eigenmodes of block-shaped test specimens (Rupitsch 2015). Within a simulation-aided approach this results in optimizing the values of the material data parameters to fit the experimental result, ... Read More
Thermal ablation is rapidly becoming a standard of care for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF), a cardiac disorder characterized by irregular heart rhythm and estimated to impact more than 33 million people worldwide (Chugh et al. Circulation (2013)). AtriCure is a company that ... Read More
Accurately determining the effective dielectric properties (complex permittivity and permeability) of granular mixtures is essential for optimizing microwave-based processes, including materials synthesis and catalytic reactions. Conventional mixing laws often fail to capture the complex ... Read More
Pasteurisation and sterilisation are crucial thermal processes for insuring microbiological safety and stability of foods. In food industry, microwave (MW) heating enables to treat food products into their final packaging, thus limiting post-process recontamination. During the design ... Read More
In this paper, we have proposed an impedance biosensor based on polymer nanowire (made of polyaniline) for efficient electric field mediated capture of biomolecules. Existing polymer nanowire based biosensors fail to achieve high sensitivity for low surface to volume ratio as the whole ... Read More
Introduction The electrical properties of materials are important in many different applications. In microelectronics for example, films must perform as insulators, semiconductor or as conducting layers. In recent years, scanning probe methods are being extended to the nanometre scale ... Read More
Introduction Polycrystalline single phase materials often display electrical properties that are a function of their grain size. Impedance spectroscopy, an alternating current technique is ideal for detecting the presence of more than one current path and has been used for many years ... Read More
