Alginate Nanoparticles Enhance Anti-Clostridium perfringens Activity of the Leaderless Two-Peptide Enterocin DD14 and Affect Expression of Some Virulence Factors

H. Zgheib, Y. Belguesmia, Rabah Boukherroub, D. Drider

Here, we report a novel approach to improve the anti-Clostridium perfringens activity of the leaderless two-peptide enterocin 14 (EntDD14), produced by Enterococcus faecalis 14. This strategy consists of loading EntDD14 onto alginate nanoparticles (Alg NPs), which are made of a safe polymer. The…

High-Q silicon nitride drum resonators strongly coupled to gates

Xin Zhou, Srisaran Venkatachalam, Ronghua Zhou, Hao Xu, Alok Pokharel, Andrew Fefferman, Mohammed Zaknoune, Eddy Collin

Silicon nitride (SiN) mechanical resonators with high quality mechanical properties are attractive for fundamental research and applications. However, it is challenging to maintain these mechanical properties while achieving strong coupling to an electrical circuit for efficient on-chip integration…

Modeling and experimental analysis of the mass loading effect on micro-ionic polymer actuators using step response identification

Iman Dadras, Sofiane Ghenna, Sébastien Grondel, Eric Cattan, Jaan Raik, Alvo Aabloo, Saoni Banerji

This paper presents a linear electrochemomechanical model for microscale ionic actuators. A frequency-domain approach is used to facilitate model interpretation, simplify model application, and accelerate the generation of actuator-specific models. A system comprising a micro PEDOT:PSS/PEO actuator…

Development of broadband high-frequency piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducer array

Xu-Bo Wang, Le-Ming He, You-Cao Ma, Wen-Juan Liu, Wei-Jiang Xu, Jun-Yan Ren, Antoine Riaud, Jia Zhou

Piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (PMUT) are promising elements to fabricate a two-dimensional (2D) array with a pitch small enough (approximately half wavelength) to form and receive arbitrary acoustic beams for medical imaging. However, PMUT arrays have so far failed to combine…

Bias-dependence of surface charge at low temperature in GaN self-switching diodes

E. Perez-Martin, I. Iniguez-De-La-Torre, T. Gonzalez, Christophe Gaquière, J. Mateos

In this work, with the help of a semi-classical two-dimensional Monte Carlo (MC) simulator, we study the DC current-voltage curves of Self-Switching Diodes (SSDs) fabricated on an AlGaN/GaN heterostructure from 100 K up to room temperature. Due to the very narrow channel of the SSDs, the presence…

Bowl-shaped ZnO ultrasonic transducer for photoacoustic/ultrasonic multimode microscopy

J. Zhang, D. Zhao, D. Li, F. Tian, Wei-Jiang Xu, X. Wu

A bowl-shaped ultrasonic transducer is proposed for photoacoustic/ultrasonic multimode microscopy. The transducer uses zinc oxide (ZnO) as the piezoelectric material, which has a better electromechanical coefficient than flexible PVDF polymer and ensures the detection sensitivity. The ZnO film is…
