We explore the potential of DNA nanotechnology for developing novel optical voltage sensing nanodevices that convert a local change of electric potential into optical signals. As a proof-of-concept of the sensing mechanism, we assembled voltage responsive DNA origami structures labeled with a single pair of FRET dyes. The DNA structures were reversibly immobilized on a nanocapillary tip and und...

To study the possibility of using acupoint electric potential as an index for evaluation of pilot's reaction to vestibular stimulation, electric potential was measured on both sides of left and right Neiguan points and Zusanli points in 80 pilots. Rotation chair was used as the method of stimulation. The results showed that changes of acupoint electric potentials were not significant (P >0.05) ...

Unlike in linear nanostructures, photocurrent generated in single-layer graphene (SLG) is expected to display two-dimensional characteristics. This allows the investigation of carrier dynamics, in relation to several spatially varying factors (such as the location of photocurrent generation and collection) and the overall electron band configuration of the SLG. In this letter, we use scanning p...

The theory of electrodynamic space-time relativity (TESTR) is the study of the transformation of time and space between two electrodynamic inertial frames of reference, which have both inertial velocity difference and electric potential difference. It is a fundamental space-time theory of theoretical physics based on the Einstein’s special theory of relativity (STR), the electric potential limi...

OBJECTIVE High resolution visual prostheses require dense stimulating arrays with localized inputs of individual electrodes. We study the electric field produced by multielectrode arrays in electrolyte to determine an optimal configuration of return electrodes and activation sequence. APPROACH To determine the boundary conditions for computation of the electric field in electrolyte, we assess...

High metabolic rates are associated normally with small differences of electric potential, whereas low metabolic rates are associated with large differences of electric potential as measured on the extremities of the body. Within the normal range of metabolism there appears to be a definite correlation between the metabolic rates and the difference of electric potential over a specified area of...

When electric potential is applied to conductors an electric field is created, which in turn creates arbitrary potentials between conductors. This is a study of the potential, electric field and charge involved in conductors. This also discusses capacitance of arbitrary conductors and how that is related to charge. Specifically this will discuss a concentric square cylinder capacitor like that ...
