A successful synthetic tissue engineering scaffold requires a hierarchical internal structure with interconnecting pores for nutrition transportation, cell infiltration and vascularization as well as nanoscale surface features favorable for cell attachment and long-term functions. However, traditionally, fabricating macro-scale scaffolds in a defined manner from nano-scale constituents has prov...

Calcified coccolithophores generate calcium carbonate scales around their cell surface. In light of predicted climate change and the global carbon cycle, the biomineralization ability of coccoliths has received growing interest. However, the underlying biomineralization mechanism is not yet well understood; the lack of non-invasive characterizing tools to obtain molecular level information invo...

Crossbar-based memristive arrays are promising candidates for future high-density, low-power memories. Their structural simplicity allows them to be fabricated with pitches as small as 17 nm [6] and with projected reductions, according to the ITRS, to a few nanometers in the next decade [1]. A crossbar is particularly useful if two-terminal switching nano-devices with a nonlinear behavior are p...

Multi Scale modeling of Nano solar cells is proposed and implemented in this paper. In the realm of current theories many phenomenon of Nano scale remains inexplicable and there is a need of high computation power to work on areas such as multi scale modeling. We have shown the distribution of computation in multi scale modeling being implemented on an HPC Setup for nano enable solar cells. We ...

Microchannel plate (MCP) as a key part is a kind of electron multiplied device applied in many scientific fields. Oxide thin films such as zinc oxide doped with aluminum oxide (ZnO:Al2O3) as conductive layer and pure aluminum oxide (Al2O3) as secondary electron emission (SEE) layer were prepared in the pores of MCP via atomic layer deposition (ALD) which is a method that can precisely control t...

We already reported that genetically engineered resveratrol-enriched rice (RR) showed to down-regulate skin melanogenesis. To be developed to increase the bioactivity of RR using calli from plants, RR was adopted for mass production using plant tissue culture technologies. In addition, high-pressure homogenization (HPH) was used to increase the biocompatibility and penetration of the calli from...

A theory of generation linewidth of a spin-torque oscillator (STO) based on an in-plane magnetized nanopillar with an anisotropic “free” magnetic layer has been developed. It is shown that the coherent properties of microwave generation strongly depend on the direction and magnitude of the in-plane bias magnetic field. In particular, it is predicted that by choosing the direction of the bias fi...

0.1016/j.nanoen.2 lsevier Ltd. All rig thor. [email protected] Abstract The reversibility and stability of Li2S electrode can be improved by carbon coating on nano sized Li2S. However, how to uniformly coat a dense layer of carbon on nano sized Li2S is still challenge so far. Here, we utilized a novel flowable ionic liquid (1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide) as a carbon precursor to uniformly...

Site-controlled InAs nano dots were successfully fabricated by a STMBE system (in situ scanning tunneling microscopy during molecular beam epitaxy growth) at substrate temperatures from 50 to 430°C. After 1.5 ML of the InAs wetting layer (WL) growth by ordinal Stranski-Krastanov dot fabrication procedures, we applied voltage at particular sites on the InAs WL, creating the site where In atoms, ...
