An elegant, compact man with matching haircut, Kuo's perpetually twinkling eyes are heavily lined from a lifetime of squinting at the micro patterns of his designs.
After deposition of the films, direct laser interference patterning (DLIP) method is used for fabricating micro patterns of the CNTs, using a frequency tripled Nd YAG laser emitting 10 ns pulses.
The effects of surface micro-patterning on the behavior of the HUVE cells were investigated.
Ink-jet printing has the advantage of easy formation of micro-patterns on rigid as well as flexible surfaces without needing conventional lithographic processes.
As an initial step to determine the effect of micro-patterning on cell cultures, the average number of complexes per cell (Cn) was calculated as a function of cell surface coverage under non-patterned and patterned conditions (Fig. 1).
Future application of this micro-pattern on endotracheal tubes may prevent or prolong the onset of VAP without the need for antimicrobial agents.
A micro-pattern of self-assembled monolayer of octadecyltriethoxysilane (OTE) was used as a solution mold for nanoparticle deposition.
Moreover, from SECM approach curve analysis, the apparent electron-transfer rate constant (k) in the micro-pattern of CuxS dominated surface was estimated as 0.04 cm/s.
The technique of in-situ optical microscopic analysis was used to observe the micro-pattern of lithium metal deposition layers formed in the whole current density scope.
After cell-seeding and cell culture, a co-culture system with the micro-pattern of both fibroblasts and endothelial cells was completed.
b A detail of (a) shows that the stomata and their surrounding cells have a micro-pattern of small enhanced spots, formed by sub-cuticular inserts of silicon-oxide crystals.
