Micro- or nanostructured optical element
Niels Quack, Dorian Giraud Herle
A micro- or nanostructured optical element (1) is proposed comprising: a membrane (3) with an array of holes (5), the membrane (3) comprising a membrane light wave facing surface; an array of pillars (7) sized and shaped such that a respective pillar (7) i ...
2023Homogenization theory captures macroscopic flow discontinuities across Janus membranes
François Gallaire, Pier Giuseppe Ledda, Giuseppe Antonio Zampogna, Kevin Wittkowski
Janus membranes, thin permeable structures with chemical and geometrical asymmetric properties, show great potential in industrial separation processes. Yet the link between the micro- and macro-scale behaviours of these membranes needs to be established r ...
CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS2023Mitochondrial cristae modeled as an out-of-equilibrium membrane driven by a proton field
Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol
As the places where most of the fuel of the cell, namely, ATP, is synthesized, mitochondria are crucial organelles in eukaryotic cells. The shape of the invaginations of the mitochondria inner membrane, known as a crista, has been identified as a signature ...
2020Comb Transducer for Generation of SH0 Mode in Crystalline Piezoelectric Membrane
Soumya Yandrapalli, Victor Plessky
It is shown that the comb IDT (CT) can efficiently excite SH0 mode in piezoelectric membrane of suitable orientation. The transducer has pitch equal to the wavelength (p=lambda) and the electrode size is half of the wavelength. As compared to conventional ...
IEEE2020Characterization of Coenzyme Q Biosynthesis Proteins through Integrative Modeling at the Protein-Membrane Interface
Integral and peripheral membrane proteins account for one-third of the human proteome, and they are estimated to represent the target for over 50% of modern medicinal drugs. Despite their central role in medicine, the complex, heterogeneous and dynamic nat ...
EPFL2019Membrane water for probing neuronal membrane potentials and ionic fluxes at the single cell level
Pierre Magistretti, Sylvie Roke, Orly Bagunu Tarun, Pascal Jourdain, Marie Eve Pascale Didier
Neurons communicate through electrochemical signaling within a complex network. These signals are composed of changes in membrane potentials and are traditionally measured with the aid of (toxic) fluorescent labels or invasive electrical probes. Here, we d ...
Nature Publishing Group2018Elastic and dynamic properties of membrane phase-field models
Phase-field models have been extensively used to study interfacial phenomena, from solidification to vesicle dynamics. In this article, we analyze a phase-field model that captures the relevant physical features that characterize biological membranes. We s ...
