Purpose. Outcome measurement is an integral part of delivering rehabilitation services in community settings. However, measurement is of little value if instruments are chosen ad hoc and are not administered consistently. The purpose of this study was to develop...

Vacuum ultra-violet spectroscopic ellipsometry study of single- and multi-phase nitride protective films.

Journal of physics. Condensed matter : an Institute of Physics journal

Aouadi SM, Bohnhoff A, Amriou T, Williams M, Hilfiker JN, Singh N, Woollam JA.
PMID: 21690857
J Phys Condens Matter. 2006 Aug 16;18(32):S1691-701. doi: 10.1088/0953-8984/18/32/S01. Epub 2006 Jul 25.

This paper reports on a systematic investigation of the optical properties of Ta(1-x)Zr(x)N single-phase and ZrN-Ag multi-phase films fabricated by unbalanced magnetron sputtering using vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopic ellipsometry (VUV-SE). VUV-SE is a newly developed technique that was used to...

Targeting Endothelial Cells with Multifunctional GaN/Fe Nanoparticles.

Nanoscale research letters

Braniste T, Tiginyanu I, Horvath T, Raevschi S, Andrée B, Cebotari S, Boyle EC, Haverich A, Hilfiker A.
PMID: 28799116
Nanoscale Res Lett. 2017 Aug 10;12(1):486. doi: 10.1186/s11671-017-2262-y.

In this paper, we report on the interaction of multifunctional nanoparticles with living endothelial cells. The nanoparticles were synthesized using direct growth of gallium nitride on zinc oxide nanoparticles alloyed with iron oxide followed by core decomposition in hydrogen...

Connectivity as a Predictor of Responsiveness to Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in People with Stroke: Protocol for a Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial.

JMIR research protocols

PMID: 30341044
JMIR Res Protoc. 2018 Oct 18;7(10):e10848. doi: 10.2196/10848.

BACKGROUND: Stroke can have devastating consequences for an individual's quality of life. Interventions capable of enhancing response to therapy would be highly valuable to the field of neurological rehabilitation. One approach is to use noninvasive brain stimulation techniques, such...

Outgrowing endothelial and smooth muscle cells for tissue engineering approaches.

Journal of tissue engineering

Kolster M, Wilhelmi M, Schrimpf C, Hilfiker A, Haverich A, Aper T.
PMID: 28540031

In recent years, circulating progenitors of endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells were identified in the peripheral blood. In our study, we evaluated the utilization of both cell types isolated and differentiated from peripheral porcine blood in terms for...

Robust Extraction of Hyperbolic Metamaterial Permittivity using Total Internal Reflection Ellipsometry.

ACS photonics

Zhang C, Hong N, Ji C, Zhu W, Chen X, Agrawal A, Zhang Z, Tiwald TE, Schoeche S, Hilfiker JN, Guo LJ, Lezec HJ.
PMID: 30997368
ACS Photonics. 2018;5. doi: 10.1021/acsphotonics.8b00086.

Hyperbolic metamaterials are optical materials characterized by highly anisotropic effective permittivity tensor components having opposite signs along orthogonal directions. The techniques currently employed for characterizing the optical properties of hyperbolic metamaterials are limited in their capability for robust extraction...

Dehydration improves biomechanical strength of bioartificial vascular graft material and allows its long-term storage.

Innovative surgical sciences

Aper T, Wilhelmi M, Boer U, Lau S, Benecke N, Hilfiker A, Haverich A.
PMID: 31579785
Innov Surg Sci. 2018 Jul 23;3(3):215-224. doi: 10.1515/iss-2018-0017. eCollection 2018 Sep.

INTRODUCTION: We have recently reported about a novel technique for the generation of bioartificial vascular grafts based on the use of a compacted fibrin matrix. In this study, we evaluated the effects of a dehydration process on the biomechanical...

An analysis of trunk kinematics and gait parameters in people with stroke.

African journal of disability

Titus AW, Hillier S, Louw QA, Inglis-Jassiem G.
PMID: 29707514
Afr J Disabil. 2018 Mar 29;7:310. doi: 10.4102/ajod.v7i0.310. eCollection 2018.

BACKGROUND: Approximately two out of three people with stroke experience gait problems. Trunk movement control and symmetry is an important prerequisite for functional walking gait. Movement control, measured objectively as kinematics during walking gait, is rarely investigated.OBJECTIVE: To describe...

Tunable plasmonic resonances in Si-Au slanted columnar heterostructure thin films.

Scientific reports

Kılıç U, Mock A, Feder R, Sekora D, Hilfiker M, Korlacki R, Schubert E, Argyropoulos C, Schubert M.
PMID: 30635603
Sci Rep. 2019 Jan 11;9(1):71. doi: 10.1038/s41598-018-37153-x.

We report on fabrication of spatially-coherent columnar plasmonic nanostructure superlattice-type thin films with high porosity and strong optical anisotropy using glancing angle deposition. Subsequent and repeated depositions of silicon and gold lead to nanometer-dimension subcolumns with controlled lengths. We...
