Macroscopic quantum effects generated by acoustic waves in a molecular magnet [PDF]

Physical Review B, 2009
We have shown that the size of the magnetization step due to resonant spin tunneling in a molecular magnet can be strongly affected by sound. The transverse acoustic wave can also generate macroscopic quantum beats of the magnetization during the field sweep.

Pressure Waves During Granular Flows in Varying Gravity Environments [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences
We present results of LAMMPS Molecular Dynamics simulations of 2D gravity-driven flows of 30,000 soft uniform spheres through a vertical silo. We vary the gravitational field (G), elastic modulus of the particles (E), and silo outlet diameter (D).

Principles and advances in ultrafast photoacoustics; applications to imaging cell mechanics and to probing cell nanostructure

Photoacoustics, 2023
In this article we first present the foundations of ultrafast photoacoustics, a technique where the acoustic wavelength in play can be considerably shorter than the optical wavelength.

An Edible Chitosan‐Based Acoustic Sensor for Sound‐Responsive Actuation in Edible Robots

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces an edible acoustic sensor for robotic food and edible robotics. Built from a chitosan piezoelectric film between gold electrodes, the sensor enables acoustic communication through ON/OFF keying. Integrated into an edible robot with pneumatically actuated arms and neck, it responds to high‐frequency tones.

Profiling of molecular interactions in real time using acoustic detection [PDF]

Biosensors and Bioelectronics, 2007
Acoustic sensors that exploit resonating quartz crystals to directly detect the binding of an analyte to a receptor are finding increasing utility in the quantification of clinically relevant analytes. We have developed a novel acoustic detection technology, which we term resonant acoustic profiling (RAP).

Gardiquimod Nanoemulsion Targets Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Lesions Reducing Systemic Toxicity and Parasite Burden

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Nanoemulsion delivery of a TLR7 agonist enhances safety and promotes colocalization with Leishmania‐infected macrophages in skin lesions, enabling a ∼2‐log reduction in parasite burden. However, tissue‐level constraints and TLR‐driven regulatory feedback generate a mixed immune response that limits complete parasite clearance.
