Thin Film Formation of Silica Nanoparticle/Lipid Composite Films at the Fluid−Fluid Interface

Langmuir, 2010
We report a new and simple method for the formation of thin films at the interface between aqueous silica Ludox dispersions and lipid solutions in decane. The lipids used are stearic acid, stearyl amine, and stearyl alcohol alongside silica Ludox nanoparticle dispersions of varying pH.

A Fluid Actuator for Thin-Film Electrodes

Journal of Medical Devices, 2006
Background. Cochlear implants have become an accepted and successful treatment for profound sensorineural deafness in both children and adults. Essential to the effective and efficient localized stimulation of the auditory nerves, is the position of the implant electrode array stimulating sites within the scala tympani (ST).

Complex Fluid Thin Films

2023
Complex fluids are a broad class of soft materials that serve important and useful functions in formulated products and biological systems alike. Typically, complex fluids comprise surfactants, particles, or polymers dispersed in water, which gives rise to unique nano-structure and flow behaviour.

Anomalous Sorption of Supercritical Fluids on Polymer Thin Films

Langmuir, 2006
Unusual sorption has been reported in thin polymer films exposed to near-critical CO2. When the supercritical fluid approaches the critical point, the film appears to thicken, but it is not clear whether the film swells or there is an adsorption layer on the film surface.

Nucleation of calcium hydroxyapatite thin films from simulated body fluid

Surface Engineering, 2010
Calcium hydroxyapatite (CHA) formation was produced by biomimetic deposition on the surfaces of silica layers of the steel bands, using slightly modified simulated body fluid (SBF).

Optimized structure of tubular thermoelectric generators using n-type Bi2Te3 and p-type Sb2Te3 thin films on flexible substrate for energy harvesting

, 2020
Thermoelectric energy harvesting has garnered considerable interest as a means of power supply in Internet of Things sensors. In this study, tubular thin-film thermoelectric generators (TTTEGs) were developed using flexible thermoelectric films for ...

Fluid abrasive trimming of thin-film resistors

Microelectronics Reliability, 1976
Thin-film nickel-chromium resistors have been trimmed using the fluid jet from an air brush. Micrometersized distilled water droplets impinge on the resistor surface at high velocity, eroding away resistor material, thereby increasing resistance. The need for top hats is eliminated.

On structural forces in thin fluid films at the critical point

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2005
Smooth approximations for structural force in thin fluid films near the critical point are presented to facilitate the usage of formulas derived in [J. Colloid Interface Sci. 278 (2004) 173-183] in experimental studies.

Fluid transport in thin film polymer processors

Polymer Engineering & Science, 1979
AbstractAn analysis of fluid transport in a polymer processor consisting of a hollow vertical cylinder with rotating blades is presented. The action of the rotating blades causes a thin film to be deposited on the inner surface of the processor and a bow wave to form in front of the blade.
