340-GHZ HETEROGENEOUSLY-INTEGRATED THZ IMAGER WITH 4°-BEAMWIDTH 16×16 IPD ANTENNA ARRAY FOR LENSLESS TERAHERTZ IMAGING APPLICATIONS

340-GHz Heterogeneously-Integrated THz Imager With 4°-Beamwidth 16×16 IPD Antenna Array for Lensless Terahertz Imaging Applications

A low-cost and planar heterogeneously-integrated 340-GHz THz imager is proposed for lensless THz imaging applications.The proposed THz imager is composed of a Flywheel Housing $16 imes 16$ antenna array realized in an integrated-passive-device (IPD) technology, an IPD-to-CMOS THz interconnect, and a power detector implemented in a 0.18- $mu ext{m}

A rabbit humerus model of plating and nailing osteosynthesis with and without Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis

The local mechanical environment at a fracture is known to influence biological factors such as callus formation, immune cell recruitment and susceptibility to infection.Infection models incorporating a fracture are therefore required to evaluate prevention and treatment of infection after osteosynthesis.The aim of this study was to create humane,
