Nanoscale Scanning Thermal Microscopy using Improved Thermocouple Probes
This technology is a scanning thermal microscope device. It utilizes a thermocouple with a sharp tip on its center fabricated from a cross-junction of coated and uncoated thin films and is suspended on a nanowire device. Radiation heat received at the tip is converted into a Seeback voltage signal for thermoelectric temperature sensing. This device...

Vortex-Flow-Induced Microparticle Concentration as an Effective Approach to Remove Microplastics and Other Particles from Contaminated Water
This technology is a physical method for removing microplastics from water using acoustic waves to generate vortices in a flow of water through a pipe or chamber to trap microplastics and other contaminant particles, including sub-micron particles which will be focused at the vortices’ centers. Captured particles can then be removed through sedimentation...
