Foldable Polymers as Gene Probes
Abstract This technology utilizes novel probes to detect and identify target biomolecules in a sample. These probes employ conformational changes induced by molecular recognition events to initiate changes in the optical properties of the probe (e.g. the modulation of a fluorescence or absorption response upon target binding). Methods, including solid...

Implementation of ACRT in Czochralski growth of Doped Single Crystals from Melt
Unmet Need: Homogeneous doping is hard to achieve by traditional methods Crystal growth using conventional methods such as Czochralski (CZ), often suffer from core breakdown and low uniformity. This was shown especially for those crystals grown with low temperature gradients and those grown from highly viscous melts, in which natural convection does...

In-vitro Biocompatibility of Laser Processed Ta Coatings on Ti (former title: Bone Replacement Materials)
AbstractLow density, low stiffness load-bearing implant structures are a dream for orthopedic surgeons. In total hip replacements (THR), dense metals with higher density, stiffness, and strength than natural bone are traditionally used to replace the diseased or damaged hip, and help restore the natural hip function of the patient. Typical lifetime...
