A Single-Stage Three-Mode Reconfigurable Regulating Rectifier for Wireless Power Transfer

In this article, we propose a reconfigurable regulating rectifier with a wide operational range for wireless power transfer. The proposed three-mode rectifier achieves a broad range voltage regulation without global loop control to minimize the chip area occupation. Compared with previous work, more working modes and greater voltage gain...

On the magnetic nanoparticle injection strategy for hyperthermia treatment

We developed a dedicated computational framework by coupling the lattice-Boltzmann-method (LBM) modeling and the particle-swarm-optimization (PSO) algorithm to search optimal strategies of magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) injection for hyperthermia-based cancer treatment. Two simplified tumor models were considered: a circular model representing...

Lanthanide-doped NaYF₄ near-infrared-II nanothermometers for deep tissue temperature sensing

In this work, different lanthanides (Tm³⁺, Er³⁺; Yb³⁺, Ho³⁺, Nd³⁺) were doped into NaYF₄ via a high-temperature coprecipitation method, and followed by SiO₂ coating to improve the water dispersibility, resulting in NaYF₄:Tm³⁺, Er³⁺...

A theoretical study of atmospheric pollutant NO₂ on as-doped monolayer WS₂ based on DFT method

For the relevant properties of pristine and doped (Si, P, Se, Te, As) monolayer WS₂ before and after the adsorption of CO, CO₂, N₂, NO, NO₂ and O₂, density functional theory (DFT) calculations are made. Calculation results reveal that the monolayer WS₂ doped with P and As atoms...

Experimental investigation on FRP-reinforced surface cracked steel plates subjected to cyclic tension

Surface cracked steel plates reinforced with single-side Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) subjected to cyclic tension are experimental studied. The main purpose is to analyze the effect of FRP reinforcement on the crack growth. The failure modes and their effects are analyzed as well. Given the single-side reinforcement, reinforcing the cracked...
