A material length scale parameter is introduced to represent the size-dependent characteristics of microbeams. This model also accounts for the nonlinearities associated with the mid-plane stretching force and the electrostatical force. Numerical analysis for microbeams with clamped-clamped and cantilevered conditions has been performed. It is found that the intensity of size effect is closely associated with the thickness of the microbeam,and smaller beam thickness displays stronger size effect and hence yields smaller deffection and larger pull-in voltage. When the beam thickness is comparable to the material length scale parameter,the size effect is significant and the present theoretical model including the material length scale parameter is adequate for predicting the static behavior of microbeam-based MEMS.展开更多

Transmittance of laser light through capillaries with different inlet and outlet diameters was measured. About several % of the transmittance was obtained and larger than 80% was achieved in combining with an optical lens. It was found that the obtained transmittance considerably depended on the capillary shape, i.e., the taper angle. Density enhancement of the extracted beam was derived and showed a strong focusing ability for the tapered glass capillary. Propagation of visible light through the capillary was discussed.展开更多

The thermoelastic coupling problem of the microbeam is converted to a mechanical problem by simply replacing the thermal stress in the beam with a bulk force and a surface force. Thermoelastic deformation of the bimorph microbeams with constraints frequently used in micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) devices has been derived based on this model and is characterized by FEA simulation. Coincidence of the results from theory and simulation demonstrates the validity of the model. The analysis shows that a bimorph microbeam with a soft constraint and a uniform temperature field has a larger thermoelastic deformation than that with a hard constraint and a linear temperature field. In addition to the adoption of materials with large CTE mismatch,thickness ratio and length ratio of the two layers need to be optimized to get a large thermoelastic deformation.展开更多

By using Taylor series expansion, a governing equation of nonlinear integro-differential type is derived, and numerical analyses are performed. When a purely DC is applied, there exist an instantaneous pull-in voltage and a durable pull-in voltage of which the physical meanings are also given, whereas under an applied combined current, the effect of the element relaxation coefficient on the dynamic pull-in phenomenon is observed where the largest Lyapunov exponent is taken as a criterion for the dynamic pull-in instability of viscoelastic microbeams.展开更多

With the development of micro-scale devices, the size-dependent effect has become an important issue. However, the classical continuum mechanical model fails on the micro-scale due to the influence of the size-dependent effect. Meanwhile, for thermoelastic behaviors limited to small-scale problems, Fourier's heat conduction law cannot explain the thermal wave effect. In order to capture the size-dependent effect and the thermal wave effect, the nonlocal generalized thermoelastic theory for the formulation of an FGM microbeam is adopted in the present work. For numerical validation, the transient responses for a simply supported FGM microbeam heated by the ramp-type heating are considered.The governing equations are formulated and solved by employing the Laplace transform techniques. In the numerical results, the effects of the ramp-heating time parameter, the nonlocal parameter, and the power-law index on the considered physical quantities are presented and discussed in detail.展开更多

The H+2 beam was accelerated by the Van de GraafF electrostatic accelerator, and the collimator at the end of the beam line is a 60 μm thick stainless steel chip. And as a result, particle tracks on the solid track probes (CR39 film) etched in the solution of NaOH showed that the beam can go through the collimator with a small aperure (2000, 300, 55, 30, or 10 μm) and 3.5 μm thick vacuum film (Mylar). Besides the CR39 method, the beam was measured by an energy spectrum detector after the 10 μm diameter aperture and the 3.5 μm thick vacuum film too.展开更多

At the CAS-LIBB microbeam facility, we have developed protocols to place exact numbers of charged particles through nuclear centroids of cells, at defined positions in the cytoplasm relative to the nucleus, and through defined fractions of cells in a population. In this paper, we address the methods for nucleus, cytoplasm and bystander (either a single or an exact number of ions is delivered to a certain percentage of cells in a population to study the bystander effects of radiation) irradiation in detail from the precision of target finding and cell locating in the image analysis system. Moreover, for cells touching slightly in an image, a watershed method is used to separate these touching objects; after that, the number of objects in an image is counted accurately and the irradiation points are located precisely.展开更多

This kind of equipment can supply single-particle beam which may be implanted into cells in micrometer-radius and measured by a new outstanding detector among global microbeam systems. Measurements by some plain targets showed that the highest current after the accelerator tube can be larger than 20 /μA, the H_2^+ current before the second bending magnet is near 0.9 /μA, the current after the second bending magnet is near 0.8 μA, and the current of the beam line (after a 2-mm diameter aperture) is near 0.25 nA which is enough for the single-particle microbeam experiment. It took scientists 3 months to do their microbeam experiment after setting up the accelerator beam line and get the microbeam from this equipment. Two pre-collimators were installed between the 2-mm diameter aperture and the collimator to survey the beam. Tracks on the CR39 film etched in the solution of NaOH showed that the beam can go through the collimator including a 10 μm diameter aperture and the 3.5 μm thick vacuum sealing film (Mylar). A new method, which is called optimization of the beam quality, was put forward in this paper, in order to get smaller diameter of beam-spot in microbeam system.展开更多

To choose an appropriate reference point, an approach based on analysing the intensity distribution of fluorescence in a thin scintillator excited by traversing particles is newly developed using the CAS-LIBB single-particle microbeam, which features decisive physical signification and sufficient resolution. As its bonus, this on-line analysis provides precise and fast response to the determination of beam profile and potentially optimizes the microbeam quality by further adjusting hardware setup.展开更多

The specific particle (e.g. H+, 2d+ or a ) bombarding a specific target can generate neutron, when the particle energy is more than a threshold (e.g., H+ energy is more than 2 MeV). And if the specific beam spot on the target is very small, the neutron beam along the direction of the specific beam spot will be very small too. If the neutron beam is weak and a neutron detector is mounted after the specific neutron collimator, the single- neutron will be obtained. Therefore, if the specific target and the neutron detector are installed after the proton accelerator and the microbeam system, the single-neutron microbeam will probably be obtained.展开更多

With the development of micro-scale devices, the size-dependent effect has become an important issue. However, the classical continuum mechanical model fails on the micro-scale due to the influence of the size-dependent effect. Meanwhile, for thermoelastic behaviors limited to small-scale problems, Fourier's heat conduction law cannot explain the thermal wave effect.

Besides the CR39 method, the beam was measured by an energy spectrum detector after the 10 μm diameter aperture and the 3.5 μm thick vacuum film too.

文摘A single-particle microbeam facility has been constructed at the Key Laboratory of Ion Beam Bioengineering (LIBB), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). At the CAS-LIBB microbeam facility, we have developed protocols to place exact numbers of charged particles through nuclear centroids of cells, at defined positions in the cytoplasm relative to the nucleus, and through defined fractions of cells in a population. In this paper, we address the methods for nucleus, cytoplasm and bystander (either a single or an exact number of ions is delivered to a certain percentage of cells in a population to study the bystander effects of radiation) irradiation in detail from the precision of target finding and cell locating in the image analysis system. Moreover, for cells touching slightly in an image, a watershed method is used to separate these touching objects; after that, the number of objects in an image is counted accurately and the irradiation points are located precisely.

文摘The progress of a microbeam facility in the Institute of Plasma Physics was discussed in this paper. This kind of equipment can supply single-particle beam which may be implanted into cells in micrometer-radius and measured by a new outstanding detector among global microbeam systems. Measurements by some plain targets showed that the highest current after the accelerator tube can be larger than 20 /μA, the H_2^+ current before the second bending magnet is near 0.9 /μA, the current after the second bending magnet is near 0.8 μA, and the current of the beam line (after a 2-mm diameter aperture) is near 0.25 nA which is enough for the single-particle microbeam experiment. It took scientists 3 months to do their microbeam experiment after setting up the accelerator beam line and get the microbeam from this equipment. Two pre-collimators were installed between the 2-mm diameter aperture and the collimator to survey the beam. Tracks on the CR39 film etched in the solution of NaOH showed that the beam can go through the collimator including a 10 μm diameter aperture and the 3.5 μm thick vacuum sealing film (Mylar). A new method, which is called optimization of the beam quality, was put forward in this paper, in order to get smaller diameter of beam-spot in microbeam system.
文摘Single-particle microbeam is uniquely capable of precisely delivering a preset number of charged particles to individual cells or sub-cellular targets to be determined in vitro, It is crucial to find a reference point that relates the microbeam's location to the microscope's plane, and align individual targets at this reference point for cell irradiation. To choose an appropriate reference point, an approach based on analysing the intensity distribution of fluorescence in a thin scintillator excited by traversing particles is newly developed using the CAS-LIBB single-particle microbeam, which features decisive physical signification and sufficient resolution. As its bonus, this on-line analysis provides precise and fast response to the determination of beam profile and potentially optimizes the microbeam quality by further adjusting hardware setup.
文摘In this paper, two automatically calculated thresholds based on a statistical analysis of the histogram were used to apply binary segmentation to the bitmap. When the CCD and the microscope have been properly configured and the raw image is preprocessed, the Otsu's method can meet the need of the control program on the whole.

文摘A conception of the single-neutron microbeam facility was put forward in this paper. The specific particle (e.g. H+, 2d+ or a ) bombarding a specific target can generate neutron, when the particle energy is more than a threshold (e.g., H+ energy is more than 2 MeV). And if the specific beam spot on the target is very small, the neutron beam along the direction of the specific beam spot will be very small too. If the neutron beam is weak and a neutron detector is mounted after the specific neutron collimator, the single- neutron will be obtained. Therefore, if the specific target and the neutron detector are installed after the proton accelerator and the microbeam system, the single-neutron microbeam will probably be obtained.
