Image-Guided Surgical and Pharmacotherapeutic Routines
Medical procedures have moved from a direct fully invasive “hand-eye” pairing process to a minimal invasive (MI) process with robot-imaging pairing in a closed-loop treatment architecture. Acts related to the invasive nature mainly concern surgical interventions (SIs) and the restricted dispensing of drugs. Currently, both of these procedures can use MI image-guided (IG) robotics, which enables patient comfort and safety, and medical staff accuracy and efficiency.

Silicon-Based Avalanche Photodiodes in Medical Imaging
Avalanche photodiodes have emerged as a promising technology with significant potential for various medical applications. Avalanche photodiodes offer distinct advantages over traditional photodetectors, including a higher responsivity, faster response times, and superior signal-to-noise ratios. These characteristics make avalanche photodiodes particularly suitable for medical-imaging modalities that require a high detection efficiency, excellent timing resolution, and enhanced spatial resolution.

Near-Body Medical Devices Subject to Electromagnetic Field Perturbation
The disturbances caused by electromagnetic field (EMF) noise of medical devices used near living tissues, as well as the corresponding functional control via the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of these devices are analyzed. These are minimally invasive and non-ionizing devices allowing various healthcare actions involving monitoring, assistance, diagnoses and image-guided medical interventions.

Imaging Biomarkers
Imaging biomarkers (IBs) have been proposed in medical literature that exploit images in a quantitative way, going beyond the visual assessment. These IBs can be used in the diagnosis, prognosis, and response assessment of several pathologies and are very often used for patient management pathways.

Source/Drain Ohmic Contact with β-Ga2O3
β-Ga2O3, with excellent bandgap, breakdown field, and thermal stability properties, is considered to be one of the most promising candidates for power devices including field-effect transistors (FETs) and for other applications such as Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) and solar-blind ultraviolet photodetectors. Ohmic contact is one of the key steps in the β-Ga2O3 device fabrication process for power applications.

Tunneling and Blocking Oxides on Memory Cells
Flash memory is an electronic, non-volatile information storage device that can be electrically erased and reprogrammed. Ideally, the information stored in such a device should be preserved for long when the power is switched off. There are two flash memories designs at present: floating gate and charge trapping. Both of them work by storage of electrical charges in the space above the channel of the MOSFET. The charge storage volume of the flash cell, either poly-Si floating gate or charge trapping dielectric/dielectric stack is confined between blocking and tunnel oxides for electrical insulation from the gate electrode and Si substrate. Blocking and tunnelling oxides are important parts of the flash memory cells, as they affect retention, endurance and program/erase speed performance.

Figures of Merit for Photodetectors
Photodetector are devices used to convert light signals into electrical signals and have a wide range of applications in optical communication, imaging and industrial security. With the emergency of new materials, new kinds of photodetectors are developed, such as van der Waals heterojunction photodetectors. In order to assess the performance of photodetectors, several key parameters are introduced.

Biogas Valorisation to Biomethane
Biogas consists of mainly methane, as a source of energy, and impurities such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide, water, and siloxanes. These impurities, such as hydrogen sulphide, reduce the biogas energy content and corrode equipment that store, transport, or utilise biogas.

Biomedical Applications of Random Lasing
A disordered photonic medium is one in which scatterers are distributed randomly. Light entering such media experiences multiple scattering events, resulting in a “random walk”-like propagation. Micro- and nano-scale structured disordered photonic media offer platforms for enhanced light–matter interaction, and in the presence of an appropriate gain medium, coherence-tunable, quasi-monochromatic lasing emission known as random lasing can be obtained.
