We are reporting energy scavenging from fluid flows inside tubular structures using triboelectric effects. Two separate designs of triboelectric generators are proposed. A tubular design that uses liquid-solid interaction mechanism for water, and freestand ...
We present a new generation of coarse-grained (CG) potentials that account for a simplified electrostatic description of soluble proteins. The treatment of permanent electrostatic dipoles of the backbone and polar side-chains allows to simulate proteins, p ...
This project has been done on the development of a monolithic fiber-based electric field sensor, with a focus on establishing a reliable, cost-effective, and scalable production cycle to be implemented initially at a pilot and consequently at an industrial ...
Light scattered by a dielectric object when it is trapped in the field of a plasmonic nanostructure is studied theoretically and experimentally using both dielectric spheres and S. cerevisiae cells. A dramatic enhancement of the scattered light is observed ...

The rising part of the current waveform observed when discharging an electrostatically charged person or test generator shows some phenomena which have not been explained satisfactorily. This paper describes an attempt to understand these effects using bot ...
We show that dielectric objects much smaller than the wavelength used to illuminate them, can produce a confined electric field that perfectly reproduces their shape. This field can be recorded by a scanning near-field optical microscope (SNOM), which expl ...
