  1. 1. Synthesis, Characterization and Applications of Metal Oxide Nanostructures

    Författare :Mushtaque Hussain; Magnus Willander; Omer Nour; Vladimir V. Mitin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aqueous chemical growth method; ZnO nanorods; Oxygen plasma treatment; Piezoelectric and mechanical properties; Atomic force microscope; Nanoindentation; Co3O4 nanostructures; Anions effect; pH sensor; NiCo2O4 nanostructures; Glucose sensor;

    Sammanfattning : The main objective of nanotechnology is to build self-powered nanosystems that are ultrasmall in size, exhibit super sensitivity, extraordinary multi functionality, and extremely low power consumption. As we all know that 21st century has brought two most important challenges for us. One is energy shortage and the other is global warming. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Resonance sensor technology for detection of prostate cancer

    Författare :Ville Jalkanen; Olof Lindahl; Britt Andersson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; resonance sensor; prostate tissue; stiffness; detecting prostate cancer; Medical engineering; Medicinsk teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is the most common type of cancer in men in Europe and the USA. Some prostate tumours are regarded as stiffer than the surrounding normal tissue, and therefore it is of interest to be able to reliably measure prostate tissue stiffness. The methods presently used to detect prostate cancer are inexact, and new techniques are needed. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Superconducting kinetic inductance devices for nanoscale force sensing

    Författare :August K. Roos; David B. Haviland; Hélène le Sueur; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; optomechanics; force sensing; atomic force microscopy; kinetic inductance; superconductivity; strain; meandering nanowires; optomekanik; kraftavkänning; atomkraftsmikroskopi; kinetisk induktans; supraledning; töjning; slingrande nanotrådar; Material and Nano Physics; Material- och nanofysik;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we present a force sensor for atomic force microscopy based on cavity optomechanical principles. We explain the function, design, fabrication and characterisation of the force sensor. The mechanical part of the force sensor consists of a cantilever with a very fine tip. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Tactile sensing of prostate cancer : a resonance sensor method evaluated using human prostate tissue in vitro
