Ultra low–temperature microwave annealing for ultra–shallow junctions and P–MOS devices
Low energy ion implantation and low–temperature microwave annealing were used in this study to fabricate ultra–shallow junctions (USJs). A two–steps modulatory microwave annealing (MWA) process was employed to recover and activate a boron (400 eV) implanted silicon wafer. In the first step, 2.4 kW high power MWA was used to regrow an amorphous layer with the crystal silicon phase and thus enhance ...

Micro/nano composites: a simple and safe way to fabricate nanomaterials
In this paper we detail how the use of nanoparticles supported or embedded in microparticles (nanostructured powders) may overcome many of the problems of nanoparticle manipulation as well as allowing bulk compacts in which nanoparticles appear monodisperse to be obtained. The main advantage of this procedure is that the possibility to use the well developed knowledge about compounding of ...

A less invasive approach to treating sudden cardiac arrest
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), a life-threatening emergency that occurs when the heart suddenly stops beating, is a leading cause of death throughout the developed world. As its name suggests, SCA happens suddenly and with little warning. As a result, out of the nearly 350 000 European lives that SCA claims every year, 95 % die before they reach the hospital. The only accepted method for treating ...

Could a COVID Vaccine threaten an endangered species and impact human health in the process?
What do you find at the intersection of COVID-19 and endangered species? There is a joke in there somewhere, but if you’re drawing a blank I’ll fill it in for you: horseshoe crabs. Yes, believe it or not, these prehistoric, ocean-dwelling creatures may find themselves on the edge of extinction after a COVID-19 vaccine is mass-produced and distributed worldwide. These large, ...

Long-Term Outcomes Following Lumbar Nucleus Replacement
Abstract Background Nucleus replacement devices are designed to replace the native pain-generating lumbar nucleus while preserving the annulus fibrosus, endplates, and natural motion. The DASCOR Disc Arthroplasty Device seemed to perform well clinically but was discontinued in 2009. While there are no commercially available NRDs today, the potential advantages of using such devices have ...

A nitric oxide releasing, self assembled peptide amphiphile matrix that mimics native endothelium for coating implantable cardiovascular devices
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death in the United States. Deployment of stents and vascular grafts has been a major therapeutic method for treatment. However, restenosis, incomplete endothelialization, and thrombosis hamper the long term clinical success. As a solution to meet these current challenges, we have developed a native endothelial ECM mimicking ...

Nitinol Applications
Although many nitinol applications are not well-known to the public, some applications are quite routine and familiar. The spectacle frame made of Nitinol severely deformed and then returned to normal. Similarly, a few years ago, when mobile phone antennas were made of Nitinol, they could bend without breaking or permanently bending. Another superelastic application of Nitinol is for orthodontic ...
