A flexible scalable anti-clogging graphite film for efficient solar desalination is demonstrated with long-term performance.
We introduce and present the fundamentals of stress-localization concept to minimize adhesion ice or other contaminants on a surface.
Recently, the solar heat localization concept has provided an appealing route for efficient utilization of thermal energy. A detailed study is conducted on this highlighting figures merit various applications.
Scale formation is a common problem in wide range of industries such as oil and gas, water desalination, food processing. Conventional solutions for this including mechanical removal chemical dissolution are inefficient, costly, sometimes environmentally hazardous. Surface modification approaches have shown promises to address challenge. However, these suffer from intrinsic existence solid–liquid interfaces leading high rate scale nucleation adhesion strength the formed scale. Here, we...
To the Editor: We were encouraged by Dr Ioannis Mavridis's letter1 regarding our recent publication, Feasibility of Endovascular Deep Brain Stimulation Anterior Nucleus Thalamus for Refractory Epilepsy,2 and appreciate his expert perspective on findings. Having seen results in vivo model firsthand, we certainly share enthusiasm potential long-range implication The concept using an endovascular approach to deliver deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been subject discussion preliminary...
Evaporation is a fundamental and core phenomenon in broad range of disciplines including power generation refrigeration systems, desalination, electronic/photonic cooling, aviation even biosciences. Despite its importance, the current theories on evaporation suffer from fitting coefficients with reported values varying few orders magnitude. Lack sound model impedes simulation prediction characteristics many systems these disciplines. Here, we studied at planar liquid–vapor interface through...
Advancement in high-performance photonics/electronics devices has boosted generated thermal energy, making management a bottleneck for accelerated innovation these disciplines. Although various methods have been used to tackle the problem, evaporation with nanometer fluid thickness is one of most promising approaches future technological demands. Here, we studied thin-film nanochannels under absolute negative pressure both transient and steady-state conditions. We demonstrated that can be...
Heat dissipation from hot surfaces through cooling droplets is limited by the Leidenfrost point (LFP), in which an insulating vapor film prevents direct contact between droplet and surface. A range of approaches have been developed to raise this limit higher temperatures, but still exists. Recently, a surface architecture, decoupled hierarchical structure, was that allows suppression LFP completely. However, heat structure low superheat region inferior other required extensive micro/nano...
Soft robotic sensor arrays for left-atrial mapping demonstrate highly conformal contact to complex patient anatomies.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has developed into an effective therapy for several disease states including treatment-resistant Parkinson and medically intractable essential tremor, as well segmental, generalized cervical dystonia, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Dystonia OCD are approved with Humanitarian Device Exemption. In addition, DBS is also the treatment of epilepsy in anterior nucleus thalamus. Although overall considered epilepsy, a number specific...
Growing demands for bio-friendly antifouling surfaces have stimulated the development of new and ever-improving material paradigms. Despite notable progress in coatings, biofouling problem remains a critical challenge. In addition to characteristics, mechanically stressed such as ship hulls, piping systems, heat exchangers require long-term durability marine environments. Here, we introduce generation anti-biofouling coatings with superior characteristics high mechanical, chemical...
