Photoactive Tweezers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A photoactive tweezers system based on photoactive colloids is developed and systematically investigated in this study. Through experimental and theoretical methods, we demonstrate that the photoredox reaction catalyzed by a dye‐sensitized TiO2 particle generates a strong positive phototaxis, enabling self‐entrapment in the beam center.

Effect Of Propellant Formulation On Propellant Properties

open access: yes, 2018
This paper present the effect of propellant formulations on propellant properties is very crucial to the quality of propellant used in rocket motor. As poor propellant formulation usually leads to unstable combustion and this can lead to a total destruction of the entire structure of the solid rocket motor.
