Photonic biosensors based on photonic integrated circuits (PICs) and microfluidic channels (MFCs) have become the subject of intensive research for point-of-care (POC) device applications. In the presented work, we demonstrate the possibility of identifying the complex refractive index (RI) of analyzed liquids through the optimization of the geometry configuration of MFCs under PICs by experimental and numerical approaches. Our results suggest that the real and imaginary parts of the RI for analytes under study can be determined from spectrum of devices with optimized MFCs width. This work paves the way for new opportunities to identify the presence and concentration of biological markers by using RI sensors for in situ POC applications.

In this work, we combine experimental characterization and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to elucidate the molecular mechanisms governing the impregnation of mefenamic acid (MFA) into nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) aerogels. NCC aerogels were impregnated with MFA in scCO2, and low-temperature nitrogen adsorption revealed a concentration-dependent decrease in surface area, pore volume, and pore size, with an ...

Using self-consistent Bogoliubov-de Gennes calculations for kagome flakes framed by armchair
and flat edges, we observe a configuration-dependent spatial inhomogeneity of an 𝑠-wave superconducting
condensate. Specifically, at half-filling, the local pair potential is significantly enhanced
by up to 77.8% at edge centers and up to 148.9% at corners, subsequently boosting their
local critical temperatures by up to 13.5% and ...

We investigate the effect of weak interband impurity scattering on the intertype (IT) domain between type-I and type-II superconductivity in diffusive two-band superconductors. Our results show that the significant broadening of the IT domain with increasing band diffusivity ratio, previously established in the absence of interband scattering, persists under weak interband scattering. However, depending on ...

The GaAs/InGaAs quantum wells with a ferromagnetic δ〈Mn〉 layer in GaAs barrier demonstrate a set of interesting spin-related phenomena originating from Mn-hole interaction. One of such phenomena is a spin-memory effect which consists of Mn spin polarization induced by interaction with vicinity spin-polarized holes generated under the exposure by short circularly polarized light pulses.
