In recent years, chemical imaging was prognosticated to become one of the key analytical applications for laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). However, moderate spatial resolution and associated measurement time required a larger sampling area, have restricted this versatile, high sensitivity technique from being routinely used in two-dimensional imaging. This work describes development investigation low dispersion sample chamber (tube cell), which allows...
The development of mass-market electric vehicles (EVs) using lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is helping to propel growth in LIB usage, but end-of-life strategies for LIBs are not well developed. An important aspect waste processing the stabilisation such high energy-density devices, and energy discharge an obvious way achieve this. Salt-water electrochemical often mentioned as initial step many recycling studies, details process itself have been mentioned. This study presents systematic...
An optimized laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) technique has been used to fabricate tri-color organic light-emitting diode (OLED) pixels. At reduced pressures, and with a defined donor-receiver gap, patterned depositions of polyfluorene-based OLED pixels have achieved. pixel functionality demonstrated compared devices made using conventional deposition techniques. In addition, improved obtained by coating the cathode an electron-injecting layer, process not possible fabrication The...
The objective of this study was to evaluate a portable iSperm semen analyzer for determination sperm motility and concentration in rams.
We report the first observation of parity-violating 2.2 MeV gamma-ray asymmetry $A^{np}_\gamma$ in neutron-proton capture using polarized cold neutrons incident on a liquid parahydrogen target at Spallation Neutron Source Oak Ridge National Laboratory. isolates $\Delta I=1$, \mbox{$^{3}S_{1}\rightarrow {^{3}P_{1}}$} component weak nucleon-nucleon interaction, which is dominated by pion exchange and can be directly related to single coupling constant either DDH meson model or pionless EFT....
A strong research effort is presently aimed at patterning methodologies for obtaining controlled defined micrometric polymeric structures a wide range of applications, including electronics, optoelectronics, sensors, medicine etc. Lasers have been identified as appropriate tools processing different materials, such ceramics and metals, but also soft, easily damageable materials (biological compounds polymers). In this work we study the dynamics laser induced forward transfer (LIFT) with gap...
Laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) has been used to print 0.6 mm × 0.5 polymer light-emitting diode (PLED) pixels with poly[2-methoxy, 5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene] (MEH-PPV) as the polymer. The donor substrate in LIFT process is covered by a sacrificial triazene (TP) release layer on top of which aluminium cathode and functional MEH-PPV layers are deposited. To enhance electron injection into layer, thin poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) Al or blend PEO was used. These substrates...
In this study we describe a simple method to fabricate microarrays of polystyrene microbeads (PS-μbeads) on Thermanox coverslip surfaces using laser induced forward transfer (LIFT). A triazene polymer layer which acts as dynamic release and propels the closely packed microspheres receiving substrate was used for approach. The deposited features were characterized by optical microscopy, scanning electron atomic force Raman spectroscopy. Ultrasonication test adherence transferred beads....
Laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) is a versatile organic light-emitting diode (OLED) pixel deposition process, but has hitherto been applied exclusively to polymeric materials. Here, modified LIFT process used fabricate small molecule Alq3 diodes (SMOLEDs). Small thin films are considerably more mechanically brittle than films, which posed significant challenges for of these The presented here uses dynamic release layer, reduced environmental pressure, and well-defined receiver-donor...
Patterned deposition of polymer light-emitting diode (PLED) pixels is a challenge for electronic display applications. PLEDs have additional problems requiring solvent orthogonality different materials in adjacent layers. We present the fabrication PLED pixel by sequential two layers with laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT), "dry" technique. This novel use LIFT has been compared to "normal" LIFT, where all are transferred single step, and conventional process. For 50-nm film an...
The development of organic electronic requires a non contact digital printing process. European funded e-LIFT project investigated the possibility using Laser Induced Forward Transfer (LIFT) technique to address this field applications. This process has been optimized for deposition functional and inorganic materials in liquid solid phase, set polymer dynamic release layer (DRL) developed allow safe transfer large range thin films. Then, some specific applications related heterogeneous...
A new collaboration is being formed to develop a multi-kiloton Long-Baseline neutrino experiment that will be located at the Surf Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, SD. In present design, detector inside cryostats filled with 68,400 ton of ultrapure liquid argon (less than 100 parts per trillion oxygen equivalent contamination). To qualify membrane technology for future very large-scale and underground implementations, strong prototyping effort ongoing: several smaller detectors...
