Magnetic measurement methods to probe nanoparticle-matrix interactions Universiteit Gent
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are key elements in several biomedical applications, e.g., in cancer therapy. Here, the MNPs are remotely manipulated by magnetic fields from outside the body to deliver drugs or generate heat in tumor tissue. The efficiency and success of these approaches strongly depend on the spatial distribution and quantity of MNPs inside a body and interactions of the particles with the biological matrix. These include dynamic ...
Simultaneous laser-induced fluorescence and capacitance probe measurement of downwards annular gas-liquid flows Universiteit Gent
Optical force measurement system with mirror probe for nanoprobing inside a scanning electron microscope KU Leuven
In nanoprobing measurements the quality of the electrical contact strongly depends on the contact force. Probing semiconductors such as silicon requires applying very high and stable forces to establish an ohmic contact between the probe tip and the structure under study. Therefore, a compact force control system is needed for nanoprobing measurements inside a high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (SEM) system. In this work we have ...
Comparative study of size dependent four-point probe sheet resistance measurement on laser annealed ultra-shallow junctions KU Leuven
In this comparative study, the authors demonstrate the relationshipcorrelation between macroscopic and microscopic four-point sheet resistance measurements on laser annealed ultra-shallow junctions (USJs). Microfabricated cantilever four-point probes with probe pitch ranging from 1.5 to 500 μm have been used to characterize the sheet resistance uniformity of millisecond laser annealed USJs. They verify, both experimentally and theoretically, ...
An improved single probe method for sap flow measurements using finite heating duration Universiteit Gent
Because of its low cost and simple fabrication, it is easy to advocate for the single probe method as a method of choice in sap flow studies. An improved single probe method with finite heating duration (F-SPHP) is verified both in cut stem segments and in the field using mature beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) trees. The F-SPHP method is based on an analytical solution of the partial differential equation for combined heat conduction and convection, ...
Laboratory calibration of TDR probes for simultaneous of measurements soil water content and electrical conductivity Universiteit Antwerpen
Accurate measurement of water content (theta), apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) of soils, and soil solution electrical conductivity (ECw) is critical for a better management of irrigation water and the effective monitoring and control of soil salinity. In this paper, we demonstrate the design and validation of an identical time domain reflectometry (TDRWO) probe for accurate and non-destructive measurements of ECw. Two calibration ...
