Design of Bio-Optical Transceiver for In Vivo Biomedical Sensor Applications.

This paper presents an enhanced version of our previously developed bio-optical transceiver, presenting a significant advancement in nanosensor technology. Using self-assembled polymers, this nanodevice is capable of electron detection while maintaining biocompatibility, an essential feature for in vivo medical biosensors. This enhancement finds significance in the field of infectious disease control, particularly in the early detection of respiratory viruses, including high-threat pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2.

Simulation and Performance Evaluation of a Bio-Inspired Nanogenerator for Medical Applications.

Providing sufficient energy for autonomous systems at the nanoscale is one of the major challenges of the Internet of Nano Things (IoNT). Existing battery technologies and conventional integrated circuits cannot be used in such small dimensions. Even if they are small enough to be used at the nano level, they still cannot be used in medical applications due to biocompatibility issues.

Design and Evaluation of a Receiver for Wired Nano-Communication Networks.

In this paper, we propose a bio-inspired receiver, which detects the electrons transmitted through a nanowire, then, it converts the detected information to blue light using bioluminescence. We simulate the construction of the nanowire, present its electrical characteristics and calculate its maximum capacity for a better design of the receiver. The designed receiver contains two parts; a part that detects the transmitted electrons, which we model by using an equivalent circuit, and a part that converts the detected electrons to blue light.

Performance Enhancement of Diffusion-Based Molecular Communication.

Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) is one of the challenges of bio-inspired diffusion-based molecular communication. The degradation of the remaining molecules from a previous transmission is the solution that biological systems use to mitigate this ISI. While most prior work has proposed the use of enzymes to catalyze the molecules degradation, enzymes also degrade the molecules carrying the information, which drastically decreases the signal strength.
