We perform a series of simulations and experiments at microwave frequencies where we dynamically alter the magnetic resonance of one individual split ring resonator by photodoping a piece of low-doped semiconductor positioned within the gap of the resonator. We predict and experimentally achieve a complete suppression…

The complete curing of furfuryl alcohol (FA), was studied by chemorheological analysis and model-free kinetics under isothermal and non-isothermal modes. Polymerization of FA under acidic catalysis involves complex reactions, with several steps (such as condensations and Diels-Alder cycloadditions). To account for the…

The effects of irradiation on stress corrosion cracking occur through changes in the water chemistry and in the alloy microstructure. Considerable reactor experience has shown that a high-temperature water environment and a radiation field combine to produce irradiation-assisted stress corrosion cracking (IASCC) in co…

In this work, we report on the light focusing ability exploited by the microshell of a marine organism: the Coscinodiscus wailesii diatom. A 100 microm spot size of a red laser beam is narrowed up to less than 10 microm at a distance of 104 microm after the transmission through the regular geometry of the diatom struc…
