We introduce a programmable diffractive optical element based on an electro-optic phased array implemented with a multichannel lanthanum-modified lead zirconate titanate phase modulator. The design and fabrication procedures are outlined, along with an experimental demonstration of the device. Experimental results from a 16-channel device operating with a 2pi ; voltage of 300 V demonstrate sele...

ABSTRACT This paper proposes a new valveless pump using a PZT diaphragm to create a gas jet flow for fluidic applications. The pump was designed and simulated based on transient fluidic analysis with experimental result of PZT diaphragm so that the features of micropump are reliably predicted. The experimental results of a PMMA prototype confirmed the performance of the pump. The fabrication pr...

Mechanotransduction between cells and the extracellular matrix regulates major cellular functions in physiological and pathological situations. The effect of mechanical cues on biochemical signaling triggered by cell-matrix and cell-cell interactions on model biomimetic surfaces has been extensively investigated by a combination of fabrication, biophysical, and biological methods. To simulate t...

Aim: The aim of this study was to describe the process of fabrication of specially designed MCOP and define their function in improving of stability. Purpose: In many clinical situations, exposed dentin surfaces of abutment teeth were restored with metal copings prior to fabrication of the overdentures. The aim of this study was to examine a procedure for fabrication of specially designed metal...
