Electrochemical DNA biosensor based on nanoporous alumina membrane by Deng, Jiajia

“…The created nanochannel alumina structure with pore size ranging from 10 to 200 nm and pore density of about 1×1010 pores cm-2 is relatively regular. The chemical and thermal stability as well as the high specific surface area of nanoporous alumina suggest that it can be developed as a platform for sensing. …”

Investigations into femtosecond laser hybrid manufacturing for 3D power sources by Tham, Nicholas Cheng Yang

“…PG can be formed directly from fsDLW in a single step, eliminating costs associated with multiple process steps. fsDLW PG therefore vastly simplifies the fabrication of high-performance 3D MSCs and MBs. fsLIL, in contrast, is a patterning process where femtosecond pulses interfere to form a variety of regular periodic interference pattern to pattern different materials. …”

Numerical solutions of some multiscale problems by Pang, Chen Hui

“…We construct the full and the sparse tensor product FE approximation schemes and prove that the complexity of the sparse tensor product FE approach is essentially optimal for this mixed problem under some regularity conditions for the solution. Next, we develop the sparse tensor product FEs for the case of smooth domains where the displacement field of the elasticity problem normally possesses the desired H2-regularity. …”
