    Abstract: ... Well-defined and technically relevant domain configurations are sought in patterned magnetic thin films. We used Magnetic Force Microscopy to investigate these in square-patterned Permalloy films. The films were prepared using dc sputter deposition by varying the Argon pressure from 1.5×10−3 to 30.0×10−3 mbar. The Landau domain configuration was found in films prepared at 1.5×10−3 mbar pressure. With an increase in pressure, tulip and irregular domains were consecutively formed. Based on magnetic and structural characterizations, an increase in coercivity and a decrease in Permalloy film density were observed at the same time. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.

  8. Aesthetically acceptable, breath friendly triboelectric face masks: design, fabrication and its efficacy

    Abstract: ... Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, several attempts have been made worldwide to control the spread of the virus. It is widely accepted that wearing face masks in public and workplaces suppresses the transmission of the virus. Highly effective face masks, e.g. N95, have a high filtration efficiency but with a large pressure drop, which does not allow one to wear the mask comfortably for long hours. A larger population wearing a moderate efficiency mask can also cut the transmission at large. Herein, mask panels from readily available fabrics are developed, that can generate triboelectricity, which enhances the filtration efficiency by around 18% without compromising the pressure drop—allowing one to wear the mask for an extended period. The unique cup-shaped design of the mask provides a snug fit with no speech distortion or fogging on the glasses.
