Low-Cost High-Performance MRI

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is unparalleled in its ability to visualize anatomical structure and function non-invasively with high spatial and temporal resolution. Yet to overcome the low sensitivity inherent in inductive detection of weakly polarized nuclear spins, the vast majority of clinical MRI scanners employ superconducting magnets producing very high magnetic fields. Commonly found...

Low-cost High Performance Low-field MRI

Envisioning the healthcare technology of tomorrow requires one to break from the mainstream and explore alternative approaches to develop accessible, ubiquitous diagnostic tools. In the field of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), despite considerable improvements in imaging quality and speed, the underlying technology remains remarkably unchanged compared to the first generation scanners that em...

Low Cost, High Performance, High Volume Heatsinks

Higher-powered electronics are being integrated into automobiles rapidly. With these electronics comes a problem of how to cool this equipment economically. Heatsink costs have not benefited nor adapted to the high volume nature of automotive electronics. Specially shaped heatsinks are much more efficient for a given size than aluminum extrusion-based ones, most prevalent used in automobiles. H...

Low-cost and large-scale synthesis of functional porous materials for phosphate removal with high performance.

A facile spray drying technique has been developed for large-scale and template-free production of nanoporous silica with controlled morphology, large pore size, and high pore volume, using commercially available fumed silica, Aerosil 200, as a sole precursor. This approach can be applied to the preparation of functional nanoporous materials, in this study, lanthanum oxide functionalised silica...
