A three-dimensional numerical tool is developed to calculate the potential distribution, electric field, and conductance for any types of conductance probes immersed in the wavy liquid film with various shapes of its free surface. The tool is validated against various analytical solutions. It is applied to find out the characteristics of the wire-wire probe, the flush-wire probe and the flush-flush probe in terms of resolution, linearity, and sensitivity. The wire-wire probe shows high resolution and excellent linearity for various film thickness, but comparably low sensitivity for low film thickness fixed. The flush-wire probe shows good linearity and high sensitivity for varying film thickness, but resolution degrading with an increase in film thickness. In order to check the applicability of the three types of probes in the real situation, the Korteweg-de Vries(KdV) two-dimensional solitary wave is simulated. The wire-wire probe is strongly affected by the installation direction of the two wires; when the wires are installed perpendicularly to the flow direction, the wire-wire probe shows large distortion of the solitary wave. In order to measure the transverse profile of waves, the wire-wire probes and the flush-wire probes are required to be separately installed 2mm and 2mm, respectively.

The E-field intensity by mobile handsets in a phantom is measured by a 3 axes miniature probe. The detected DC voltage by a Schottky diode in a probe has nonlinear characteristics by itself. If a pertinent diode compression point (DCP) is applied for the compensation specific absorption rate(SAR) as much as 200 W/kg can be measured with a good measurement accuracy.

A handheld sheet resistance meter that can easily and quickly measure the sheet resistance of indium tin oxide films was developed. The dual-configuration four-point probe method was adopted for this instrument, which measured sheet resistance in the range from $0.26{\Omega}/sq$. to $2.6k{\Omega}/sq$. with 0.3 % ~ 0.5 % uncertainty. The screen of the instrument displayed the sheet resistance when the probe was in contact with the sample surface and the value continued to be displayed during the probe contact. Even after separating the probe from the surface, the value was still displayed on the screen and could be read easily. A feature of the instrument was the use of the dual-configuration technique to reduce edge effects markedly compared with the single-configuration technique and its ease of operation without applying correction factors for sample size and thickness.

Rhodamine B Hydrazide as a novel fluorescent and colorimetric probe exhibiting remarkably selective fluorescence enhancement toward Hg²⁺ ion over other 16 metal ions is herein introduced. The probe reacts with Hg²⁺ ion followed by its spirolactam ring-opening to give a remarkable enhancement of absorption maximum at 550 nm as well as an enhanced fluorescence intensity at 580 nm in aqueous media. Upon titration with Hg²⁺ ion in various concentration of 10~200 uM, we found that the probe shows a marked color change from colorless to pink, enabling naked-eye detection toward mercury ion. In addition, in the presence of Hg²⁺ ion, the probe gave rise to change from non-florescence to strong orange fluorescence (Off-On) with a good linearity of R²=0.97. This preliminary results demonstrate that the fluorescent chemosensor we herein introduced can open a new strategy for marked selective and sensitive detection of mercury ions in contaminated soil containing various metal ions.

We developed a wireless gamma-ray probe based on radiation photon counting method to diagnose and detect remaining lesions after surgery, and its effectiveness was evaluated using calibration sources and a phantom. The probe was designed and miniaturized using a semi-conductor-based radiation sensor, and a Bluetooth remote communication module was used to implement the wireless diagnosis and detection system. Moreover, a remote monitoring system was implemented to monitor affected areas during diagnosis and surgery. To assess the effectiveness of the developed probe in this study, calibration sources $^{57}Co$, $^{133}Ba$, $^{22}Na$ and $^{137}Cs$ and a chicken breast phantom were used. Furthermore, the probe's detection response to gamma ray was confirmed through evaluation. Its clinical applicability was verified by assessing the response linearity and detection direction according to gamma-ray intensity, as well as the detection efficiency according to the depth of the gamma source in the phantom.

A simple and low cost stylus profiler made of ferrite cores is developed. The devised profiler consists of a contact probe, a measuring transducer, a signal processing unit, and a motorized stage. The contact probe attached to 4-bar spring maintains sufficient stiffness to protect disturbances. An overlap-area type inductive position sensing system is selected as a measuring transducer, which has high sensitivity, repeatability and linearity. The transducer is composed of coil bundles and ferrite cores which have good electromagnetic characteristics in spite of low cost. The repeatability of the profiler with the proposed inductive sensing system is better than 50nm. Experimental results are shown that the proposed profiler can measure the line or 3D profile of an object with sub-micron features.

In our present work, we developed a GMI (giant magnetoimpedance) sensor system to detect magnetic fields in the milli gauss range based on the asymmetric magnetoimpedance (AGMI) effect in Co-based amorphous ribbon with self bias field produced by field-annealing in open air. The system comprises magnetoimpedance sensor probe, signal conditioning circuits, A/D converter, USB controller, notebook computer, and program for measurement and display. Sensor probe was constructed by wire-bonding the cobalt based amorphous ribbon with dimensions $10\;mm\;{\times}\;1\;mm\;{\times}\;20\;{\mu}m$ on a printed circuit board. Negative feedback was used to remove the hysteresis and temperature dependence and to increase the linearity of the system. Sensitivity of the milli gauss meter was 0.3 V/Oe and the magnetic field resolution and environmental noise level were less than 0.01 Oe and 2 mOe, respectively, in an unshielded room.

As one of the most hazardous and deadliest pathogens, Listeria monocytogenes (LM) posed various serious diseases to the human being, thus designing effective strategy for its detection is of great significance. In this work, by preparing Ti₃C₂T_x MXenes nanoribbon (Ti₃C₂T_xR) as carrier and selecting thionine (Th) acted simultaneously as signal probe and functional monomer, a LM pathogen-imprinted polymers (PIP) integrated probe electrochemical sensor was design to monitor LM for the first time, that was carried out through the electropolymerization of Th on the Ti₃C₂T_xR/GCE surface in the existence of LM. Upon eluting the templates from the LM imprinted cavities, the fabricated PIP/Ti₃C₂T_xR/GCE sensor can rebound LM cells effectively. By recording the peak current of Th as the response signal, it can be weakened when LM cell was re-bound to the LM imprinted cavity on PIP/Ti₃C₂T_xR/GCE, and the absolute values of peak current change increase with the increasement of LM concentrations. After optimizing three key parameters, a considerable low analytical limit (2 CFU mL^-1) and wide linearity (10-10⁸ CFU mL^-1) for LM were achieved. In addition, the experiments demonstrated that the PIP/Ti₃C₂T_xR sensor offers satisfactory selectivity, reproducibility and stability.

Based on the co-linearity in the Triticeae, comparative RFLP analysis of 2M chromosome of Ae. comosa Sibth et Sm. was performed with 2MS and 2M additional lines of Triticum aestivum L. cv. Chinese Spring. Among the wheat RFLP probes conserved in the short arms of wheat chromosome 2, those above psr912 were located on the long arms of 2M in Aegilops comosa. The rest probes on the short arm and all the probe sequences on the long arm of group 2 chromosome in wheat were conserved on the equivalent chromosomal position in Aegilops comosa. So, it is apparent that some chromosomal segment from the short arm had been transferred to long arm while reconstructing 2M chromosome relative to wheat chromosomes. The break-point was located between psr912 and psr131 of the short arm. This rearrangement of chromosome 2M might be a molecular evidence of the M genome speciation from an ancestral type.
