A note on the diffraction by a semi-Infinite thick half plane, and a semi-infinite cylindrical rod with an absorbent end face

open access: yes, 1994
The known solutions for: (i) A plane wave incident on two rigid semi-infinite parallel plane distance 2b apart, (ii) The radiation of an arbitrary mode from two parallel rigid semi-infinite plates 2b apart, are used to construct the solution of the ...

Machine Learning Enables Inverse Design of Optically Driven Microscopic Metavehicles

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Machine‐learning‐based inverse design is used optimize “metavehicles” — flat microparticles based on metagratings that generate a strong lateral optical force from normally incident light. The optimized design exhibits a force efficiency of ∼88% and a measured propulsion speed in water much higher than previously reported, demonstrating that inverse ...

High-Order Integral Equation Methods for Diffraction Problems Involving Screens and Apertures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis presents a novel approach for the numerical solution of problems of diffraction by infinitely thin screens and apertures. The new methodology relies on combination of weighted versions of the classical operators associated with the Dirichlet ...

Phase contrast imaging with a laboratory-based microfocus X-ray source [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This project looks at the design of an in-line X-ray phase contrast imaging system, based around the Bede Microsource®, on a suitable scale for imaging small pathological samples. The system is applied to two test objects to assess feasibility of its use

Hierarchically Soft Porous MOF‐Polymer Monolith for Fast and Large‐Scale Moisture Buffering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A soft, hierarchical porous monolith that combines metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with a thermoresponsive polymer matrix enables rapid, large‐scale moisture buffering. The synergistic interface facilitates high‐capacity water capture and low‐energy release for sustainable indoor dehumidification.

A Computational Strategy for Identifying Self‐Assembling Food‐Derived Molecules for Antiparasitic Nanotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated computational screening strategy identified ursolic acid (UA) and 18β‐glycyrrhetinic acid (18βGA) as a self‐assembling food‐derived molecular pair. The resulting carrier‐free nanoparticles (UA‐18βGA) showed synergistic antiparasitic activity, reduced combined toxicity, and host‐protective anti‐inflammatory effects in zebrafish and murine ...
