In this paper, the main activity was to investigate how different substrates, temperature of sintering and percentage of silver ink containing silver nanoparticles influence on Young’s modulus and hardness of printed silver thin samples. Samples were prepared by low cost ink-jet printing technique using Dimatix Material Printer on polyimide flexible substrate and slide glass. Characterization o...

449 Abstract Cantilever sensors have attracted considerable attention over the last decade because of their potential as a highly sensitive sensor platform for high throughput and multiplexed detection of proteins and nucleic acids. A micromachined cantilever platform integrates nanoscale science and microfabrication technology for the label-free detection of biological molecules, allowing mini...

The world of IoT has enabled user’s to interact with the environment, in order to perform various tasks that best suits their requirements and daily lives. This includes the ability for end users to interact with miniature sensors within the environment, where such sensors can provide vital information (e.g. ECG from on-body sensors). However, extending the IoT to include nanoscale sensors and ...

It has been suggested that ice cores may preserve detectable enhancements of some terrestrially rare radioisotopes, Be, Al, Cl, resulting from a near-Earth core-collapse supernova(SN) [1]. Both Be and Cl are also produced by atmospheric cosmic ray spallation and hence are influenced by processes that modulate the Earth’s cosmic ray flux. Previous studies [2], [3] have suggested that enhancement...

Nano-TiO2 (NT) and nano-SiO2 (NS) were separately added in the cement paste to investigate the rheological property of fresh mixtures and mechanical strength in hardened state. The effects of different dosages and types of nano-particles on the properties of cement paste were studied. The results indicated that the rheological behavior of the fresh cement paste coincides with the Modified Bingh...

In present work a experimental study based on thermosyphon is investigated using a solid nano-particles added to water as a working fluid. Tests are made on a thermosyphon. The experiment was performed in order to measure the temperature distribution and compare the heat transfer rate of the thermosyphon with the nano uid and with pure water. The tested concentration level of the nano-particles...

Ion beam bombardment, as a unique and facile technique, was found and developed to fabricate nano-networks from rigid nano-rods. To study the differences of their characteristics, attapulgite (ATP)was chosen as amodel. The results ofmethylene blue adsorption performance investigation demonstrated that attapulgite nano-networks (ATP-N) have better adsorption capability than the attapulgite nano-...

Introduction: Grain size separate CG from the Murray CM2 carbonaceous chondrite contains mostly spinel grains of average diameter 0.5 μm [1]. Zinner et al. [2] found that approximately 1% of these spinel grains are of presolar origin as determined by their large O isotopic anomalies. These O isotopic measurements were made with the NanoSIMS on individual grains that were well separated from one...
