چکیده
The design, fabrication and characterization of an inorganic catalyst based direct glucose fuel cell using mesoporous silica coating as a functional membrane is reported. The desired use of mesoporous silica based direct glucose fuel cell is for a blood vessel implantable device. Blood vessel implantable direct glucose fuel cells have access to higher continuous glucose concentrations. However, reduction in the implant thickness is required for application in the venous system as part of a stent. We report development of an implantable device with a platinum thin-film (thickness: 25 nm) deposited on silicon substrate (500 mm) to serve as the anode, and graphene pressed on a stainless steel mesh (175 mm) to serve as the cathode. Control experiments involved the use of a surfactant-coated polypropylene membrane (50 mm) with activated carbon (198 mm) electrodes. We demonstrate that a mesoporous silica thin film (270 nm) is capable of replacing the conventional polymer based membranes with an improvement in the power generated over conventional direct glucose fuel cells.

Resolving LWG Issues re common_type
LWG issues 2465 and 2763 have seen considerable recent churn. Experimentation has revealed that these Issues’ latest Proposed Resolutions do not pass all expected tests. This paper presents revised wording as well as a corresponding implementation that does pass the tests of desired behavior. This wording also addresses the first part of LWG issue 2460 as well as several other concerns, and tak...

With the identification of (DsJ (2317), DsJ (2460)) as the (0 , 1) doublet in the heavy quark effective field theory, we derive the light cone QCD sum rule for the coupling of eta meson with DsJ (2317)Ds and DsJ (2460)D ∗ s . Through η − π 0 mixing we calculate their pionic decay widths, which are consistent with the experimental values (or upper limits). Combining the radiative decay widths de...
متن کاملMass and meson - current coupling constant of the tensor D ∗ 2 ( 2460 )
We calculate the mass and meson-current coupling constant of the D∗ 2(2460) tensor meson in the framework of QCD sum rules. The obtained result on the mass is compatible with the experimental data.

We show that, for n large, there must exist at least nt C(1+o(1))t 2 monochromatic Kts in any two-colouring of the edges of Kn, where C ≈ 2.18 is an explicitly defined constant. The old lower bound, due to Erdős [E62], and based upon the standard bounds for Ramsey’s theorem, is nt 4(1+o(1))t 2 .
