Translating the (scalar) solar radiation pressure into a (vector) acceleration field. Models of radiation-pressure thrust... -
Targeted, Multifunctional Hydrogel Nanoparticles for Imaging and Treatment of Cancer
Use of nanoparticles as a platform for carrying drugs, image contrast agents, or both has been considered to be a revolutionary approach for cancer... -
How to Engineer Robotic Organisms and Swarms?
In large-scale systems composed of autonomous embodied agents (e.g., robots), unpredictability of events, sensor noise and actuator imperfection pose... -
Brief introduction to optical microfibers and nanofibers
When its diameter goes close to or below the wavelength of the guided light, an optical microfiber/nanofiber (MNF) exhibits favorable properties such...
