Pinning quantum phase transition of photons in a hollow-core fiber

, 2011
We show that a pinning quantum phase transition for photons could be observed in a hollow-core one-dimensional fiber loaded with a cold atomic gas. Utilizing the strong light confinement in the fiber, a range of different strongly correlated polaritonic ...

Fluid Forces Control Structural Remodeling of Blind‐Ended Lymphatic Microvessels

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using innovative microfluidic biofabrication with fluid mechanical insights, we recapitulated the blind‐ended microanatomy and physiological drainage properties of capillary lymphatics. Our results reveal the interrelationship between intra‐ and extraluminal regions of lymphatic vessels due to flow‐induced sprouting and morphological changes that ...

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...

Release oscillation in a hollow fiber – Part 1: Mathematical model and fast estimation of its frequency

Journal of Low Frequency Noise, Vibration and Active Control, 2019
This paper studies a micro/nano scale capillary flow in a hollow fiber and its oscillation. The hollow fiber is immersed into a liquid (e.g. water), and the isolated air in the fiber plays as a spring-like oscillation. An oscillation model is established

Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

Ion-exchange hollow fibers [PDF]

, 1977
An ion-exchange hollow fiber is prepared by introducing into the wall of the fiber polymerizable liquid monomers, and polymerizing the monomers therein to form solid, insoluble, cross-linked, ion-exchange resin particles which embed in the wall of the ...
