Manufacturing AA6061 micro-molds by hot embossing for production of polymeric microfluidic devices by Tran, Nhat Khoa

“…Thus, the focus of this research is to investigate if an aluminum alloy micro-mold could be fabricated by hot-embossing using silicon (Si) master with acceptable cost, quality, and life span. By employing the appropriate processing parameters, experiments conducted indicate conclusively that the deformation mechanism of aluminum alloy 6061 (AA6061) in micro hot embossing is the plastic deformation of the grains themselves. …”

Valley-optical absorption in planar transition metal dichalcogenide superlattices by Hashemi, R., Shojaei, S., Rezaei, B., Liu, Zheng

“…By calculating the effective mass for different bands and using the Drude-Lorentz model, our approach is able to determine the oscillator strength and the effective refractive index of the structure. We found that the spin-orbit coupling has important effect on the absorption coefficient and energy bands where it reduces the absorption coefficient of the structure from typical value of [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text], also the valence band experiences a significant blue shift, while the conduction band shows minor changes due to spin orbit coupling. …”

Small-island interactions: pottery from Roman Malta by Anastasi, M

“…In the first instance, a detailed study of three complete and new ceramic assemblages, including amphorae, fine, cooking and coarse wares, was undertaken. The opportunity to quantify identifiable imports and compare them with local products—the first of its kind for fine, cooking and coarse wares—provided valuable proxy data for comparing Malta with neighbouring islands and centres, and demonstrated what proportion of ceramic vessels were locally supplied, and how these changed over time. …”

Reverse emulsion polymerization : study of variables’ effects on nanogel synthesis and behaviour by Ho, Cheng En

“…Stable water-dispersible nanohydrogels of crosslinked acrylic acid-co-acrylamide (Poly AAc-co-AM) polymer were formed by inverse emulsion polymerization using N,N'methylenebisacrylamide (NNMBA) as cross-linking agent, and polyoxyethylene sorbitan mono-oleate (TWEEN80) and sorbitan monooleate (SPAN80) as cosurfactants. Various factors (temperature, initiator type, solvent ratio and surfactant ratio) that affect the reaction were arranged in a matrix and experiments were carried out in order to test how the factors affect the formation of the nanogel. …”
