The next generation AIM 2020 automated interferometric microscope system measures the end-face quality of multi-fiber connectors using a custom Michelson interferometric objective and a high speed ...

All fibers were analyzed directly without additional modification or sampling accessories. The O-PTIR spectra resemble transmission-like IR spectra in non-contact (far-field) mode. Through spatially ...

In my previous column (see “Editor's Picks,” at right), I discussed transverse flexural testing of a unidirectional composite as one method of evaluating the strength of the fiber/matrix interfacial ...

As universities nationwide are under pressure to prove their economic viability and value to the community and prospective students, a team at the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry ...

Micropillar compression testing [1] is fast emerging as a viable alternative to nanoindentation, for the measurement of mechanical properties and deformation behavior of small volumes and thin films.

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The fibronexus (FNX), a very close transmembrane association of individual extracellular fibronectin fibers and actin microfilaments, was ...
