The present paper aims at sensing the temperature. A sensor metamaterial consisting of two concentric metallic rings and a thin metallic wire deposited on the surface of BaTiO3 substrate is reported. The use of BaTiO3 makes the resonant frequency of the structure shift as the temperature varies and makes the sensor applicable in many fields of applications. Numerical simulations and theoretical results are presented and compared to each other; there was a good agreement between them. This sensor is smaller, easier to fabricate, and very sensitive to the changes in temperatures.

A new type of wireless passive, high sensitivity, high temperature sensor was designed to meet the real-time temperature test in the harsh aero-engine environment. The sensor consists of a complementary split ring resonator and a substrate integrated circular waveguide (CSRR-SICW) structure and is based on high temperature resistant Si3N4 ceramic as the substrate material. Temperature is measured by real-time monitoring of the resonant frequency of the sensor. In addition, the ambient temperature affects the dielectric constant of the dielectric substrate, and the resonant frequency of the sensor is determined by the dielectric constant, so the function relationship between temperature and resonant frequency can be established. The experimental results show that the resonant frequency of the sensor decreases from 11.3392 GHz to 11.0648 GHz in the range of 50–1000 °C. The sensitivity is 123 kHz/°C and 417 kHz/°C at 50–450 °C and 450–1000 °C, respectively, and the average test sensitivity is 289 kHz/°C. Compared with previously reported high temperature sensors, the average test sensitivity is approximately doubled, and the test sensitivity at 450–1000 °C is approximately three times higher. Therefore, the proposed high sensitivity sensor has promising prospects for high temperature measurement.

In this paper an experimental investigation of the electric-field configuration in a toroidal resonator has been carried out by measuring the shift of the resonant frequency when a small dielectric sphere is introduced in the resonator. The good agreement between the experimental and the theoretical results shows that the assumptions concerning the electromagnetic-field configuration are correct and the method can be used in measuring the electrical conductivity of a plasma.

This review presents several sensors with dimensions at the nano- and micro-scale used for biological applications. Two types of cantilever beams employed as highly sensitive temperature sensors with biological applications will be presented. One type of cantilever beam is fabricated from composite materials and is operated in the deflection mode. In order to achieve the high sensitivity required for detection of heat generated by a single mammalian cell, the cantilever beam temperature sensor presented in this review was microprocessed with a length at the microscale and a thickness in the nanoscale dimension. The second type of cantilever beam presented in this review was operated in the resonant frequency regime. The working principle of the vibrating cantilever beam temperature sensor is based on shifts in resonant frequency in response to temperature variations generated by mammalian cells. Besides the cantilever beam biosensors, two biosensors based on the electric cell-substrate impedance sensing (ECIS) used to monitor mammalian cells attachment and viability will be presented in this review. These ECIS sensors have dimensions at the microscale, with the gold films used for electrodes having thickness at the nanoscale. These micro/nano biosensors and their mammalian cell applications presented in the review demonstrates the diversity of the biosensor technology and applications.

This paper reveals the dynamics of a delayed neural network of four neurons, with a short-cut connection through a theoretical analysis and some case studies of both numerical simulations and experiments. It presents a detailed analysis of the stability and the stability switches of the network equilibrium, as well as the Hopf bifurcation and the bifurcating periodic responses on the basis of the normal form and the center manifold reduction. Afterwards, the study focuses on the validation of theoretical results through numerical simulations and circuit experiments. The numerical simulations and the circuit experiments not only show good agreement with theoretical results, but also show abundant effects of the short-cut connection on the network dynamics.

The nonlinear optical properties of pepper oil are studied by diffraction ring patterns and Z-scan techniques with continuous wave beam from solid state laser at 473 nm wavelength. The nonlinear refractive index of the sample is calculated by both techniques. The sample show high nonlinear refractive index. Based on Fresnel-Kirchhoff diffraction integral, the far-field intensity distributions of ring patterns have been calculated. It is found that the experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical results. Also the optical limiting property of pepper oil is reported. The results obtained in this study prove that the pepper oil has applications in nonlinear optical devices.

AbstractThis paper is devoted to the investigation of the kinetics of Hadamard-type fractional differential systems (HTFDSs) in two aspects. On one hand, the nonexistence of non-trivial periodic solutions for general HTFDSs, which are considered in some functional spaces, is proved and the corresponding eigenfunction of Hadamard-type fractional differential operator is also discussed. On the other hand, by the generalized Gronwall-type inequality, we estimate the bound of the Lyapunov exponents for HTFDSs. In addition, numerical simulations are addressed to verify the obtained theoretical results.

A complex permittivity characterization method for liquid samples has been proposed. The measurement is carried out based on a self-designed microwave sensor with a split ring resonator (SRR), the unload resonant frequency of which is 5.05 GHz. The liquid samples in capillary are placed in the resonant zone of the fabricated senor for high sensitivity measurement. The frequency shift of 58.7 MHz is achieved when the capillary is filled with ethanol, corresponding a sensitivity of 97.46 MHz/μL. The complex permittivity of methanol, ethanol, isopropanol (IPA) and deionized water at the resonant frequency are measured and calibrated by the first order Debye model. Then, the complex permittivity of different concentrations of aqueous solutions of these materials are measured by using the calibrated sensor system. The results show that the proposed sensor has high sensitivity and accuracy in measuring the complex permittivity of liquid samples with volumes as small as 0.13 μL. It provides a useful reference for the complex permittivity characterization of small amount of liquid chemical samples. In addition, the characterization of an important biological sample (inositol) is carried out by using the proposed sensor.
