ED - Singh, Chandan T1 - Tri-sodium citrate stabilized gold nanocubes for plasmonic glucose sensing N2 - We report a two-step process for the immobilization of gold nanocubes (Au-NCs) on a glass surface using a combination of extraction and exchange reaction using poly (sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS) and trisodium citrate (TSC). Cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) stabilized gold nanocubes (CTAC/Au-NCs) synthesized by a microfluidic synthesis procedure were successfully deposited on silane-modified glass substrate after extraction of excess CTAC using chloroform followed by exchange of CTAC to TSC on the surface of Au-NCs. Further, TSC/Au-NCs were found to be highly stable and suitable for microfluidic sensing of different glucose concentrations using localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectroscopy offering an improved sensitivity (126.37 nm/RIU).

Planar-biaxial fatigue tests were carried out on a servohydraulic tension-compression testing machine with and without phase shift using a cruciform specimen geometry with fixed principal stress axes. In phase and out of phase tensiontorsion tests were performed using tube shape specimens on a servohydraulic tensiontorsion testing machine. Microstructural investigations were performed by transmission electron microscopy as well as by scanning electron microscope. For all proportional load cases the equivalent strain amplitude based on a maximum shear strain energy criterion results in a similar hardening behavior and in fatigue life times within a scatter band of three. Out of phase loading results in additional cyclic hardening and reduced life time. Planar glide structures were observed in all tested cases as well as areas of pronounced strain localization in the torsional load cases. No evidence of transition to wavy glide behavior was observed. T2 - ICMFF10 - 10.
