Quantum dots (QDs) are promising luminescent materials for display application owing to their excellent optical properties and easy processing. However, it is still challenging achieve high efficiency stability QDs in practical LED because of surface sensitivity air, heat moisture. Here we summary the recent developments enhancement terms chemistry, thermal management light extraction devices. ...

Composite material based on Fe3Si micro-particles and Mn-Zn nano-ferrite was prepared using powder metallurgy technology. The sol-gel followed by autocombustion process was used for synthesis of Mn0.8Zn0.2Fe2O4 ferrite. 3 wt.% of mechanically milled ferrite was mixed with Fe3Si powder alloy. Mixed micro-nano powder system was homogenized by the Resonant Acoustic Mixing using ResodynLabRAM Mixer...

Microand nano-scale manufacturing has been the subject of an increasing amount of interest and research effort worldwide in both academia and industry over the past 10 years. Traditional lithography-based technology forms the basis of silicon-based micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) manufacturing, but also precision manufacturing technologies have been developed to cover micro-scale dimens...

At altitude, bubbles are known to form and grow in blood and tissues causing altitude decompression sickness. Previous reports indicate that treatment of decompression sickness by means of oxygen breathing at altitude may cause unwanted bubble growth. In this report we visually followed the in vivo changes of micro air bubbles injected into adipose tissue of anesthetized rats at 101.3 kPa (sea ...

Pine needle-like Pd micro/nano-leaves have been synthesized by a facile, template-free electrochemical method. As-synthesized Pd micro/nano-leaves were directly electrodeposited on an indium tin oxide substrate in the presence of 1.0 mM H2PdCl4 + 0.33 M H3PO4. The formation processes of Pd micro/nano-leaves were revealed by scanning electron microscope, and further characterized by X-ray diffra...

Title of dissertation: LOW REYNOLDS NUMBER FLOW VALIDATION USING COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS WITH APPLICATION TO MICRO AIR VEHICLES Eric J. Schroeder, Master of Science, 2005 Thesis directed by: Associate Professor James D. Baeder Department of Aerospace Engineering The flow physics involved in low Reynolds number flow is investigated computationally to examine the fundamental flow properties ...

Nucleate boiling heat transfer coefficients may be strongly reduced by scale formation, even for conditions where the bulk foulant concentration is well below the saturation concentration. Due to the mechanism of micro-layer evaporation, the local concentration at the heat transfer surface can be considerably increased, causing the formation of scale and changes in bubble frequency and bubble d...

Predicting the dynamics of an electrically charged drop impacting a solid surface is great importance in various industrial applications such as spray coating and painting. An decelerates immediately before touch-down by lubrication pressure intervening air. The build-up forms dimple resulting entrapment bubbles under drop. We measured visualized bubble formations using high-speed interferometr...

Nanotopography modification is a major focus of interest in current titanium surface design; however, the influence of the nanostructured surface on human cell/bacterium behavior has rarely been systematically evaluated. In this study, a homogeneous nanofiber structure was prepared on a titanium surface (Nano) by alkali-hydrothermal treatment, and the effects of this Nano surface on the behavio...

Presently the majority of tissue engineering approaches aimed at regenerating bone relies only on post-implantation vascularization. Strategies that include seeding endothelial cells (ECs) on biomaterials and promoting their adhesion, migration and functionality might be a solution for the formation of vascularized bone. Nano/micro-fiber-combined scaffolds have an innovative structure, inspired...
