  Nardelli, Pietro; Khan, Kashi A.; Corvo, Alberto; Moore, Niamh; Murphy, Mary J.; Twomey, Maria; O'Connor, Owen J.; Kennedy, Marcus P.; Estepar, Raul San Jose; Maher, Michael M.; Cantillon-Murphy, Pádraig (BioMed Central, 2015-06-26)

  Background: Computed tomography (CT) helps physicians locate and diagnose pathological conditions. In some conditions, having an airway segmentation method which facilitates reconstruction of the airway from chest CT images ...
• Design of a compliant gripper with multimode jaws 

  Hao, Guangbo; Li, Haiyang; Nayak, Abhilash; Caro, Stephane (American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2018)

  This paper presents the design of a multimode compliant gripper, using the singularities of the four-bar mechanism with equilateral links. The mobility of the compliant gripper can be reconfigurable to grasp a variety of ...
• Nanoscale fissure formation in AlxGa1–xN/GaN heterostructures and their influence on Ohmic contact formation 

  Smith, Matthew D.; Thomson, D.; Zubialevich, Vitaly Z.; Li, Haoning; Naresh-Kumar, G.; Trager-Cowan, C.; Parbrook, Peter J. (John Wiley & Sons Inc., 2017)

  Nanoscale surface fissures on AlxGa1-xN/GaN (15nm/1 mu m) heterostructures grown by metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) were imaged using tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electron channelling contrast ...
• Single facet semiconductor laser with deep etched V-notch reflectors integrated with an active multimode interference reflector 

  Dernaika, Mohamad; Caro, Ludovic; Kelly, Niall P.; Peters, Frank H. (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017)

  A single mode laser based on novel deep etched V-notch reflectors is presented in this paper. The reported device has a stable single mode operation and a side mode suppression ratio of 37 dB. The laser is widely tunable ...
• A geiger-mode APD photon counting system with adjustable dead-time and interchangeable detector 

  Deng, Shijie; Gordon, Declan; Morrison, Alan P. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016-01-01)

  A Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode (GM-APD) photon counting system is presented in this letter. The system provides a maximum counting rate of 35 Mcounts/s and is capable of directly displaying the counting rate and data ...
