To treat the cancer is an inherently difficult. Sometimes after tumors have been removed, residual cancer cells remain and even live. Also, parts of a tumor cannot be removed in some cases because cancer cells attach to a vital organ.The therapeutic values of Gold nanoparticles are related with their distinctive physical properties, their interaction with tumors and destroy cancer cells. By the help of enhanced permeability characteristics of the dozens of Gold nanoparticles, cancer cells can be enveloped and annihilated.Gold nanoparticles can damage cancer cells by photo thermal ablation through mechanical damage. Therefore, healthy cells can live untouched. Moreover, because of their high atomic mass,gold nanoparticlescan absorb significantly moreradiationthan soft tissue cells which leads to be an ideal for boosting theradiation dosein tumors and also enhancing contrast of specific tissues during diagnostic imaging.

Rundown about Silicon Oxide Wafer

The main insulating material used in micro-technology is Silicon Dioxide, which in chemical symbols is written as SiO2. In semiconductor technology, SiO2 thin film layers are mainly used as dielectric material film in transistors, capacitors (DRAM) or flash-memories. Silicon Oxide Wafers are produced using crystallization, solid state and other ultra-high purification processes such as sublimation. This process forms a cylindrical ingot, which is then sliced and polished to form wafers. Thermal oxide is a kind of "grown" oxide layer, compared to CVD deposited oxide layer, it has a higher uniformity, and higher dielectric strength, it is an excellent dielectric layer as an insulator . In most silicon- based devices, thermal oxide layer play an important role to pacify the silicon surface to act as doping barriers and as surface dielectrics. The simplest way to produce an insulating silicon oxide layers (SiO2) on silicon wafers is to oxidize silicon with oxygen, which ...

New Way of Deaf-Mute Communication with 3D Graphene

Image retrieved from: http://blogs.rsc.org/cc/2016/09/01/3d-graphene-adds-dimension-to-deaf%E2%80%93mute-communication/ Chinese scientists have developed wearable electronic device with conductive 3D graphene structure to translate sign language into written text. This technology can be applied by injecting graphene ink from a syringe under printed electronic field. For medical field, such as adhesive patches which determine heart, brain signal and neural activity, wearable and bio-integrated medical devices are very important. Due to noticeable properties of cast graphene, for example a 2D honeycomb lattice, excellent mechanical and electrical behaviors, Graphene has an important material in warble technology. However, it is difficult to preserve advantages of Graphene material in a 3D material which has an information about forces from every angle. Yanlin Song and co-workers at the University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, and Shenyang Jianzhu University...
