the applications of electrochemical machining are increasing because of increasing requests of industries for materials with high strengh and high hardness. regular ecm uses a tool with spicified profile shape that is similar to final shape of workpiece. in this reasearch a nozzle that delivers electrolyte to the machining gap is used for machining cylinderical workpieces. by moving the electro...

UNLABELLED Rapid detection of bacterial pathogens is critical toward judicious management of infectious diseases. Herein, we demonstrate an in situ electrokinetic stringency control approach for a self-assembled monolayer-based electrochemical biosensor toward urinary tract infection diagnosis. The in situ electrokinetic stringency control technique generates Joule heating induced temperature r...

We consider the estimation of the Directions-Of-Arrival (DOA) of target signals in diffuse noise. The state-of-the-art MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm necessitates accurate identification of the signal subspace. In diffuse noise, however, it is difficult to identify it directly from the observed spatial covariance matrix. In our approach, we estimate the target spatial covarian...

Electronic detection of the binding event between biotinylated bovine serum albumen (BSA) and streptavidin is demonstrated with the chemoreceptive neuron MOS (CnuMOS) device. Differing from the ion-sensitive field-effect transistors (ISFET), CnuMOS, with the potential of the extended floating gate determined by both the sensing and control gates in a neuromorphic style, can provide protein dete...

Direct solar-to-fuels conversion can be achieved by coupling a photovoltaic device with water-splitting catalysts. We demonstrate that a solar-to-fuels efficiency (SFE) > 10% can be achieved with nonprecious, low-cost, and commercially ready materials. We present a systems design of a modular photovoltaic (PV)-electrochemical device comprising a crystalline silicon PV minimodule and low-cost hy...

A novel, mixed-valent copper(I)-copper(II) complex, {[bis(ethylene-diamine)copper(II)] bis[diiodocuprate(I)]} (1), has been prepared by electrochemical dissolution of a sacrificial copper anode in a solution of ethylenediamine (en), I2 and tetraethylammoniumperchlorate (TEAP) as supporting electrolyte in acetonitrile (AcN)and characterized by single-crystal X-ray structure determination. The cr...

In this research, IR and frontier molecular orbital (FMO) computations were employed for investigating the performance of B12N12 as a novel recognition element for fabrication of quetiapine thermal and electrochemical sensors. All of the computations were done by density functional theory method in the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory and in the aqueous ph...

Background: Different concentrations of the simple carbon substrates i.e. glucose, fructose, and sucrose were tested to enhance the performance of the mediator-less double chamber microbial fuel cell (MFC). Objectives: The power generation potential of the different electron donors was studied using a mesophilic Fe (III) reducer and non-fermentative bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa</em...
