Photonic crystal cavity based gas sensor




T. Sunner, T. Stichel, S.-H. Kwon, T. W. Schlereth, S. Hofling et al.
We have studied the response of a photonic crystal cavity to changes of the ambient refractive index. Transmission measurements of the cavity under different gaseous environments and pressures showed a linear dependence of the resonance wavelength on the refractive index of the ambient gas. A change ... [Appl. Phys. Lett. 92, 261112 (2008)] published Wed Jul 2, 2008.

Model of plasmon excitations in a bundle and a two-dimensional array of nanotubes
Author(s): Tibab McNeish, Godfrey Gumbs, and Antonios Balassis
We calculate the plasma excitations in a bundle as well as a two-dimensional (2D) periodic array of aligned parallel multishell nanotubes on a substrate. The carbon nanotubes are oriented perpendicular to the substrate. The model we use for the system is an electron gas confined to the surface of an...

Efficacy in microbial sterilization of pulsed magnetic field treatment
Sterilization effects of the pulsed magnetic field with a maximum intensity of 11.37 Tesla were investigated on Escherichia coli AS 1.129, Staphylococcus aureus AS 1.89, Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATTC 7552 and Bacillus subtilis AS 1.921. The well-regulated fluctuations of sterilization effects with magnetic field intensity and pulse number were observed, and can be described by the "window effect" of magnetic fields and provide a better explanation of the inconsistent results of PMF sterilization in published literature. Sensibility of bacteria on the pulsed magnetic field significantly depends on a variety of microorganisms. Sterilization effects of a flowing sample were better than that of static samples.
