Influence of an Annealing Temperature in a Vacuum Atmosphere on the Physical Properties of Indium Tin Oxide Nanorod Films.

In the present study, indium tin oxide (ITO) nanorod films were produced by usage of ion-assisted electron-beam evaporation with a glancing angle deposition technique. The as-produced ITO nanorod films were annealed in the temperature range of 100-500 °C for two hours in a vacuum atmosphere. The as-produced ITO nanorod films exhibited (222) and (611) preferred orientations from the X-ray diffraction pattern. After vacuum annealing at 500 °C, the ITO nanorod films demonstrated many preferred orientations and the improvement of film crystallinity. The sheet resistance of the as-produced ITO nanorod films was 11.92 Ω/ and was found to be 13.63 Ω/ by annealing at 500 °C. The as-produced and annealed ITO nanorod films had a rod diameter of around 80 nm and transmittance in a visible zone of around 90%. The root mean square roughness of the as-produced ITO nanorod film's surface was 5.49 nm, which increased to 13.77 nm at an annealing temperature of 500 °C. The contact angle of the as-produced ITO nanorod films was 110.9° and increased to 116.5° after annealing at 500 °C.

Tissue culture system using a PANDA ring resonator and wavelength router for hydroponic plant.

A novel system of nanofluidics trapping and delivery, which is known as a tissue culture system is proposed. By using the intense optical pulse(i.e., a soliton pulse) and a system constructed by a liquid core waveguide, the optical vortices (gradient optical fields/wells) can be generated, where the trapping tools in the same way as the optical tweezers in the PANDA ring resonator can be formed. By controlling the suitable parameters, the intense optical vortices can be generated within the PANDA ring resonator, in which the nanofluidics can be trapped and moved (transported) dynamically within the Tissue culture system(a wavelength router), which can be used for tissue culture and delivery in the hydroponic plant system.

Drug trapping and delivery for Alzheimer's diagnosis.

In this investigation, a new design based on a PANDA ring resonator as an optical trapping tool for tangle protein, molecular motor storage, and delivery is proposed. The optical vortices are generated and the trapping mechanism is controlled in the same way as the conventional optical tweezers. The trapping force is produced by a combination of the gradient field and scattering photons. The required molecular volume is trapped and moved dynamically within the molecular network. The tangle protein and molecular motor can be transported and delivered to the required destinations for Alzheimer's diagnosis by molecular buffer and bus network.
