An experimental study was conducted to further our understanding about the fundamental physics of electrokinetic instability (EKI) and to explore the effectiveness to enhance fluid mixing inside a Y-shaped microchannel by manipulating convective EKI waves. The dependence of the critical voltage of applied static electric field to trig EKI to generate convective EKI waves on the conductivity rat...

GP-SIMD, a novel hybrid general purpose SIMD architecture, addresses the challenge of data synchronization by in-memory computing, through combining data storage and massive parallel processing. In this paper, we explore a resistive implementation of the GP-SIMD architecture. In resistive GP-SIMD, a novel resistive row and column addressable 4F2 crossbar is utilized, replacing the modified CMOS...

Digital microfluidic systems (DMFS) are a class of lab-on-a-chip systems that manipulate individual droplets of chemicals on an array of electrodes. The biochemical analyses are performed by repeatedly moving, mixing, and splitting droplets on the electrodes. In this paper, we characterize the tree structure of biochemical analyses and identify their minimum resource requirements, towards the d...

ThefPDB\(" Planar Doped B_arrier| diode is a device consisting of a p doping spike \v .' between two" intrinsic layers and n ohmic contacts. This device has the advantages of controllable barrier height, diode capacitance and forward to reverse current ratio. A symmetrically designed PDB has an anti-symmetric current vs. voltage characteristic and is ideal for use as millimeter wave subharmonic...

The terahertz (THz) range is very attractive for astronomical observations. Spectroscopy and photometry of remote space objects in the THz range allows for a study of their chemical composition, because this range covers rotational lines from simple molecules and electron transition lines from atoms and ions. Heterodyne receivers, due to their high spectral resolution, in the THz range allows f...

UNLABELLED A novel conductive process for resistive random access memory cells is investigated based on nanoporous anodized aluminum oxide template. Bipolar resistive switching characteristic is clearly observed in CoFe2O4 thin film. Stable and repeatable resistive switching behavior is acquired at the same time. On the basis of conductive filament model, possible generation mechanisms for the ...

zno nanowires with a diameter of 70 nm and nanorods with a diameter in the range of 100-150 nm and two micrometer in length were grown on glass substrates by resistive evaporation method and applying a two step oxidation process at low temperatures, without using any catalyst, template or buffer layer. xrd pattern of these nanostructures indicated a good crystallinity property with wurtzite hex...

Static mixers are in-line devices, which consist of motionless mixing elements, inserted in the given length of the pipe. Homogenization is attained by using the flow energy of the material to be mixed. The mixing effect depends on the continuous separation, distribution, and reunion of particles in the stream of material. There are various element designs available for mixing liquids and they ...
