Implementation of a graphene quantum Hall Kelvin bridge-on-a-chip for resistance calibrations.

The unique properties of the quantum Hall effect allow one to revisit traditional measurement circuits with a new flavour. In this paper we present the first realization of a quantum Hall Kelvin bridge for the calibration of standard resistors directly against the quantum Hall resistance. The bridge design is particularly simple and requires a minimal number of instruments.

Flow induced by acoustic streaming on surface-acoustic-wave devices and its application in biofouling removal: a computational study and comparisons to experiment.

All transducers used in biological sensing suffer from fouling resulting from nonspecific binding of protein molecules to the device surface. The acoustic-streaming phenomenon, which results from the fluid motion induced by high-intensity sound waves, can be used to remove these nonspecifically bound proteins to allow more accurate determinations and reuse of these devices. We present a computational and experimental study of the acoustic-streaming phenomenon induced by surface acoustic waves.
