An optical gas sensor is presented, making use of a dispersed supercontinuum source, capable of acquiring broad bandwidth spectra at ultrahigh wavelength sweep and repetition rates. Wavelength sweeps from 1100 nm to 1700 nm can be performed in 800 ns at a spectral resolution of 40 pm. This is comparable to line-widths of molecular spectra at atmospheric pressure. Quantitative measurements are p...

Here we report a three-step growth method for high-quality mono-layer, bi-layer and tri-layer graphene with coverage ~90% at atmospheric pressure. The growth temperature and gas flow rate have been found to be the key factors. This method would be of great importance for the large scale production of graphene with defined thickness.

Numerical simulation of streamer propagation in nitrogen at atmospheric pressure" (1985).

Modifications which enable simpler operation of the Cunningham-Barth-Kirk microrespirometer are described and an example of its use is quoted. Added advantages include easy positioning of indicator drop in the capillary and thermal equilibration at atmospheric pressure.

The cyanonitrene radical, NCN, is detected by laser-induced fluorescence in laminar, adiabatic, flat phi=1.3 methane-air flames at 200 hPa and atmospheric pressure. Laser excitation of the A approximately 3Piu(020)-X approximately 3Sigmag-(000) band at 317 nm allows off-resonant fluorescence to be detected at 326 nm. Excitation and dispersed fluorescence spectra are presented, as well as profil...

We report a novel method for covering a substrate with highly-oriented single crystalline hexagonal zinc structures under atmospheric pressure and room temperature without an external source of electric current, any templates or the use of epitaxial growth on the substrate.

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has received great attention due to its noteworthy ability, and has also been widely studied over few decades in physics, biology and medicine. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the cold atmospheric pressure plasma effects on the proliferation of breast cancer cells. MDA-MB-231 was used for this experiment. MDA-MB-231 cells were cultured in 24-well plate and...
