In this paper, a photonic crystal waveguide platform on silicon-on-insulator substrate is proposed in order to realize a highly sensitive refractive index based biosensor. Following the design, the analysis of the sensor structure are made by using the three dimensional Finite Difference Time Dom...

Semantic image segmentation aims to partition an image into non-overlapping regions and assign a pre-defined object class label to each region. In this paper, a semantic method combining low-level features and high-level contextual cues is proposed to segment natural scene images. The proposed me...

The specific surface area, morphology and electrochemical performance of thin films of electrodeposited manganese dioxide have been examined. Electrodeposition of these films was carried out using chronoamperometry, using times ranging from 10 to 120s in order to obtain deposits with different ma...

The modulation of a microwave-scale Mach-Zehnder interferometer coupled to a dielectric resonator (DR) tunes the DR resonance frequency. We report on a theoretical study to develop an understanding of the intrinsic tuning properties of an Mach-Zehnder interferometer ring-DR-microstrip line system...

Herein we report the nontrivial effect of counterion size on the electrochemical charging of gold nanoparticle (or called MPC) monolayer films in aqueous electrolyte solutions. The electrochemical charging response was observed with relatively small counterions (e.g., BF4 −, ClO4 − and PF6 âˆ...

Bioanodes for acetate oxidation were formed with pure cultures of Geobacter sulfurreducens under constant polarization potential. With the original commercial strain, the bioanodes formed at +0.2V/SCE exhibited open circuit potential (OCP) of 0.0V/SCE, while the bioanodes formed at −0.2V/SCE ha...

Oxidation (HPOR) and reduction (HPRR) reactions of hydrogen peroxide were studied on platinum single crystalline surfaces. Experimental curves were fitted to a simple model in which the whole process is described by the sum of two independent, mass controlled reactions. It is shown that stepped s...

A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with internal-electrolysis deposited gold nanoparticles (AuNPsied) was applied to sensitively and selectively detect As(III) by anodic stripping linear sweep voltammetry (ASLSV). The AuNPsied/GCE was prepared based on the redox replacement reaction between...
