The interaction of electric field with charged domain walls in ferroelectrics is theoretically addressed. Ageneral expression for the force acting per unit area of a charged domain wall carrying free charge is derived. It is shown that, in proper ferroelec ...
The aim of the present thesis is to investigate several aspects of: the proteins mechanics, interprotein interactions and to study also new techniques, theoretical and technical, to obtain and analyze the force spectroscopy experiments. The first section i ...
Nowadays many consumer electronic devices are using small engines (micromotors). Thanks to technological innovation, the components can be imbedded into numerous portable systems. The key factors for a nomadic integration are: reduction of power consumptio ...
We present a new profile for the electrodes forming the radial transmission line of a switched oscillator (SWO). The profile is formed using a curvilinear orthogonal space based on a specific 2-D transformation called logarithmic-tangent. The proposed prof ...
Observation of a theoretically predicted peak in the neoclassical toroidal viscous (NTV) force as a function of toroidal plasma rotation rate is reported. The NTV was generated by applying n = 3 magnetic fields from internal (I-)coils to low plasmas produc ...
We report on the use of zipping actuation applied to dielectric elastomer actuators to microfabricate mm-sized pumps. The zipping actuators presented here use electrostatic attraction to deform an elastomeric membrane by pulling it into contact with a rigi ...
Runaway electrons can be generated in tokamak plasmas if the accelerating force from the toroidal electric field exceeds the collisional drag force owing to Coulomb collisions with the background plasma. In ITER, disruptions are expected to generate runawa ...
This work aims to develop arrays of individually actuated cell force spectroscopy probes. Cross et al. (Nat. Nanotech. 2007) have shown that human cells undergo substantial mechanical changes as they become cancerous. Cell force spectroscopy using AFM has ...
We report the fabrication of silicon microcantilevers with MOSFET detection, to be used in force measurements for biomolecular detection. Thin cantilevers are required for a high force sensitivity. Therefore the source and drain of the transistors have bee ...
