Abstract:
In any given media, the speed of sound is considerably slower than speed of light, and the exploration of the acoustic regime in the GHz range gives access to very short acoustic wavelengths. Short acoustic wavelengths is an intriguing path for high resolution live-cell imaging. At low frequencies, ultrasound has proved to be a valuable tool for the mechanical characterisation and imaging of biological tissues. There is much interest in using high frequency ultrasound to investigate single cells due to its mechanical contrast mechanism. Mechanical characterisation of cells has been performed b

The device fabrication, nanostructured materials synthesis and characterization, as well as their gas sensing performance have been undertaken. The investigated structures are based on two structures: lithium niobate (LiNbO3) and lithium tantalate (LiTaO3). These two substrates were chosen for their high electromechanical coupling coefficient. The conductometric structure is based on langasite (LGS) substrate. LGS was selected
