The Effect of Vibration Characteristics on the Atomization Rate in a Micro-Tapered Aperture Atomizer [PDF]

Sensors, 2018
Because little is known about the atomization theory of a micro-tapered aperture atomizer, we investigated the vibration characteristics of this type of atomizer.

Mechanically stable solvent-free lipid bilayers in nano- and micro-tapered apertures for reconstitution of cell-free synthesized hERG channels [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2017
AbstractThe self-assembled bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) is the basic component of the cell membrane. The reconstitution of ion channel proteins in artificially formed BLMs represents a well-defined system for the functional analysis of ion channels and screening the effects of drugs that act on them.

Study on the Influencing Factors of the Atomization Rate in a Piezoceramic Vibrating Mesh Atomizer

Applied Sciences, 2020
On the basis of previous study in our research group, the phenomenon of the dynamic tapered angle was founded, the occurrence of atomization is regarded to derive from the combined effects of the dynamic variation of the micro-tapered aperture, and the ...

Experimental Verification of the Pumping Effect Caused by the Micro-Tapered Hole in a Piezoelectric Atomizer

Sensors, 2018
In this study, we examined the use of a dynamic micro-tapered hole as a micro-scale tapered flow tube valveless piezoelectric pump. Firstly, we obtained photographs of a micro-tapered hole by using an environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM ...

Generation and subwavelength focusing of longitudinal magnetic fields in a metallized fiber tip [PDF]

, 2014
We demonstrate experimentally and numerically that in fiber tips as they are used in NSOMs azimuthally polarized electrical fields (|E$_{\text{azi}}$|$^2$/|E$_{\text{tot}}$|$^2$ $\approx$ 55% $\pm $ 5% for 1.4\mu m tip aperture diameter and \lambda$_0$ =

Micropillar Cavity Design for 1.55-μm Quantum-Dot Single-Photon Sourcesb

Journal of Electronic Science and Technology, 2019
The 1.55-μm quantum-dot (QD) micropillar cavities are strongly required as single photon sources (SPSs) for silica-fiber-based quantum information processing.

Detecting Neutral Atoms on an Atom Chip [PDF]

, 2006
Detecting single atoms (qubits) is a key requirement for implementing quantum information processing on an atom chip. The detector should ideally be integrated on the chip.

High sensitivity micro-fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometric temperature sensors with a high index ring layer [PDF]

, 2019
The influence of the high index ring layer (HIRL) in a tapered fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) on the interference observed, and thus on its potential applications in temperature sensing, has been investigated.

Optical transmittance degradation in tapered fibers [PDF]

, 2011
We investigated the cause of optical transmittance degradation in tapered fibers. Degradation commences immediately after fabrication and it eventually reduces the transmittance to almost zero.
