The developments of Al and V free, biocompatible Ti-alloy have been the subject researcher in orthopedic joints replacement domain. current article addresses methodology chosen for design, machinability, low-cost surface texturing process a high degree biocompatibility. It is evident that an astonishing increase biocompatibility can be achieved by synchronizing electro-discharge spark energy wi...

We demonstrate a micro-electroporation device for cell lysis prior to subcellular analysis. Simple circuit models show that electrical lysis method is advantageous because it is selective towards plasma membrane while leaving organelle membrane undamaged. In addition, miniaturization of this concept leads to negligible heat generation and bubble formation. The designed microdevices were fabrica...

Multiple-layer perovskite Pb0.91La0.09Zr0.65Ti0.35O3/SrTiO3 (PLZT/STO) heterostructures have been grown by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) on (001) MgO/GaAs substrates. The perovskite layers are single phase with 35nm RMS roughness on the top surface. Electrically induced birefringence in the PLZT layers, resulted in both optical phase and optical amplitude modulation. The application of an elect...
