Modifying Wicking Speeds in Paper-Based Microfluidic Devices by Laser-Etching
Micromachines, 2020 Paper-based microfluidic devices are an attractive platform for developing low-cost, point-of-care diagnostic tools. As paper-based devices’ detection chemistries become more complex, more complicated devices are required, often entailing the sequential ...

American Journal of Physics, 2008 In quantum field theory the “normal ordering” of operators is routinely used, which amounts to shuffling all creation operators to the left. Potentially confusing is the occurrence in the literature of normal-ordered functions, sometimes called “Wick transforms.” In this paper, we introduce the reader to some basic results, ideas, and mathematical ...
