This paper presents the intelligent digital 3-axis IMU (inertial measurement unit) system. The MEMS accelerometer and gyroscope sensing cores are fabricated by using the SBM (Sacrificial Bulk Micromachining) process. The fabricated sensing cores accomplish the [...]

Nanoparticulate Drug Delivery Systems Based on Hydrotropic Polymers, Dendrimers, and Polymer Complexes

, , , , , , , , , , ,
Novel nanoparticulate drug delivery systems have received increasing attention for delivery of poorly water-soluble drugs and proteins. We have developed a new type of polymer micelles bearing the hydrotropic core segment, e.g., poly(2-(4-vinylbenzyloxy)-N,N-diethylnicotinamide), that enables [...]

Metastable Site in Amorphous Carbon Lattice Generated by Rapid Quenching of Liquid Diamond

Formation of amorphous structure of carbon by rapid quenching of the liquid phase was investigated by molecular dynamic (MD) simulation using Tersoff’s empirical potential. Physical properties of crystalline diamond, such as lattice parameter, surface energy [...]

Molecular Dynamics Study on Deposition Behaviors of Au Nanocluster on Substrates of Different Orientation

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,
Effects of the substrate orientation on the homo-epitaxial rearrangement of the deposited Au cluster were studied by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation using embedded-atom method (EAM) potential. (011), (001), and (111) low indexed surfaces were used [...]
