Ferroelectric perovskite oxides are widely used in sensors, actuators and optical modulators and, at the same time, they show promise for implementation in future applications such as energy storage, memory and cooling devices. At the infancy of the discov ...
This document describes how the Federation of European Laboratory Animal Science Associations (FELASA) accreditation addresses both the Directive 2010/63/EU and the related European Commission guidance document. The four EU Functions and beyond: FELASA acc ...
This paper represents the extended version of the conference paper “Developing highly-integrated subcutaneous biochips for remote monitoring of human metabolism” pre- sented at the IEEE Sensors Conference 2012, and presents data on assembly, packaging and ...

Au-Ge-based alloys are potential substitutes for Pb-rich solders currently used for high-temperature applications. In the present work, the wetting behavior of two Au-Ge-X (X = Sb, Sn) ternary alloys, i.e., Au-15Ge-17Sb and Au-13.7 Ge-15.3Sn (at.%), in con ...
For environmental reasons, lead has been banned from microelectronic solder materials since the adoption of the RoHS legislation in 2006. A large number of investigations have lead to the development of new lead-free solder materials like the SnAgCu alloy ...
In this study, a deep analysis of the reliability of lead-free (SnAgCu) solders in comparison with tin-lead solders have been done for a particular aerospace application. Creep properties of this solder composition have been investigated, and results have ...

Alloys based on the Sn-0.7Cu-xNi system are potential Pb-free solders. In this paper we report on the solidification characteristics and microstructures of Sn-0.7Cu alloys containing 0-1,000 ppm nickel. The microstructural observations show that increasing ...
To better understand the role of exudates in Cd speciation and biouptake by bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti, the content of different exudate components including siderophores, proteins and polysaccharides were quantified in absence and presence of 10M C ...
