Novel motion nanosensor based on mechanical amplification
ثبت نشده
چکیده
In the past years there is an increasing interest to incorporate in any electronic device a motion sensor to provide interaction: measuring our reactions, position or motion. Therefore, the motion sensors should be low-cost but more precise. A nanosensor based on a motion amplifier mechanism is presented. The design can amplify extremely small displacements (nanometers) up to 200 times. Partners to further develop the system and/or to establish commercial agreements along with technical cooperation are sought.

A novel graphene oxide based fluorescent nanosensing strategy with hybridization chain reaction signal amplification for highly sensitive biothiol detection.
A novel fluorescent nanosensor has been developed for detecting biothiols including cysteine and glutathione using graphene oxide based hairpin DNA-selective fluorescence quenching and thymine-Hg(II)-thymine coordination-controlled hybridization chain reaction, which provides a simple but the most sensitive platform for biothiol assays.

متن کاملA quantum dot-based microRNA nanosensor for point mutation assays.
We have developed a quantum dot-based microRNA nanosensor for point mutation assays using primer generation-mediated rolling circle amplification. The proposed method exhibits high sensitivity with a detection limit of as low as 50.9 aM and a large dynamic range of 7 orders of magnitude from 0.1 fM to 1 nM. Importantly, this method can be further applied to analyze the point mutation of mir-196...
متن کاملExperimental Evaluation of IRWEC1, a Novel Offshore Wave Energy Converter
This paper describes the innovative offshore point-absorber wave energy converter (WEC), IRWEC1, under development by the Hydrodynamics, Acoustics and Marine propulsion Group at Babol Noshirvani University of Technology. Totally enclosed in an outer shell, with no external moving parts, IRWEC1 is completely sealed which make it a robust and trustable system. Important motion for this WEC is the...
متن کاملDesign and Analysis of a Novel Tendon-less Backbone Robot
A new type of backbone robot is presented in this paper. The core idea is to use a cross shape mechanism with the principle of functioning of the scissors linkages, known as a pantograph. Although this continuum arm acts quite similar to tendon-driven robot, this manipulator does not include any tendon in its structure. This design does not suffer from the weaknesses of the continuum design suc...
