This study presents a robust control strategy for acoustic micro robots utilizing a novel interval type-three fuzzy system. Micro robots driven by acoustic forces face significant challenges in fluid environments due to complex nonlinearities, uncert...

This study employed atomic layer deposition (ALD) to fabricate an Al2O3 passivation layer to optimize the performance of ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors with a TiO2-nanorod-(NR)-containing active layer and a solid–liquid heterojunction (SLHJ)....

Magnetic two-dimensional (2D) materials have garnered significant attention for their potential to revolutionize 2D spintronics due to their unique magnetic properties. However, their air-sensitivity and highly insulating nature of the magnetic semic...

This paper proposes a 2-D fully polarized Van Atta array, which consists of four tri-polarized antenna elements. The tri-polarized antenna element comprises a monopole antenna and a low-profile microstrip antenna that widens the beam by folding four...

We explored the use of biomimetic structures, including those that mimic leaf structures, to enhance the angular color uniformity of flat phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (pcLEDs). The distinct microstructures found on natural leaf surfaces,...

Flexible electronic technology has attracted great interest, where rigid and brittle semiconductor materials can withstand large deformation. In order to improve the stretchability of devices, many novel structures have been designed, such as the cla...

We investigate the inorganic/organic hybrid vertical phototransistor (VPT) by integrating an atomic layer deposition-processed ZnO (ALD-ZnO) transistor with a prototype poly(3-hexylthiophene):[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (P3HT:PC61BM) b...

With the development of the micro electromechanical system (MEMS), which widely adopts micro differential pressure sensors (MDPSs), the demand for high-performance MDPSs had continuously increased. Pressure sensors realized using MEMS technology inte...

The measurement of downhole drilling motor rotational speed is crucial for optimizing drilling operations, improving work efficiency, and preventing equipment failures. However, traditional downhole rotational speed sensors suffer from power supply l...

During phagocytosis, the FcGR–IgG bond is thought to be necessary to promote cell-membrane extension as the zipper mechanism. However, does this zipper mechanism provide a spatial antigen discrimination capability that allows macrophages to sel...
