Study on the Microplastics’ Effect on the Life History of Daphnia magna [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Microplastics (MPs), a type of new pollutant, have shown negative impacts on the aquatic environment. To understand how MPs impact zooplanktons, we studied the life history of Daphnia magna. D.

Dual-beam interference from a lensed multicore fiber and its application to optical trapping [PDF]

, 2012
A multicore all-fiber probe is demonstrated that has been fabricated using an electric arc fusion splicer. Interference of the fiber output when coherent light is coupled into two cores is investigated.

Three-dimensional assembly structure of anatase TiO2 hollow microspheres with enhanced photocatalytic performance

Results in Physics, 2017
The pure anatase TiO2 hollow microspheres are synthesized by a one-step template-free hydrothermal route. By defining temperature and time limits, we produce TiO2 hollow microspheres with a fluoride-mediated self-transformation. The surface morphology of

Discrepancies in Determinations of the Ginzburg-Landau Parameter

, 2007
Long-standing discrepancies within determinations of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter $\kappa$ from supercritical field measurements on superconducting microspheres are reexamined. The discrepancy in tin is shown to result from differing methods of analyses,

A Self-Assembled Microlensing Rotational Probe [PDF]

, 1998
A technique to measure microscopic rotational motion is presented. When a small fluorescent polystyrene microsphere is attached to a larger polystyrene microsphere, the larger sphere acts as a lens for the smaller microsphere and provides an optical ...
