Pushing the limits of relaxation and modulated-bath AC calorimetry. by Song, Zhibo.

“…This design also has the advantage that the DC offset which plagues conventional AC calorimeter can be eliminated by superposing an AC plus DC current supply to the joule heater. The detailed design of this calorimeter is investigated and the full working principle is explained. …”

Experimental investigation on working of PCR chip by Ahluwalia Kunal

“…The effect of using different types of oil and another means to prevent condensation of the sample liquid onto the top surface of the chip, i.e. using ITO glass heater was elaborately studied. The reason to conduct the above analysis was to study the ways and practices already investigated by several authors individually to prepare a successful chip. …”

Programmable morphing, electroactive porous shape memory polymer composites with battery-voltage Joule heating stimulated recovery by Lai-Iskandar, S., Li, Wenhao, Tsang, S. H., Lee, Y. H., Teo, Edwin Hang Tong

“…Our method can be compatible with kirigami techniques for the design of hierarchical and combinatorial shape-change structures. 3DC not only serves as an intrinsic heater but, during synthesis, its cell walls also act as a confinement framework for architecting porosity within 3DC-eSMPCs, which can be actuated with low-voltage (7.5 V, <2 W). …”
