Electro y dielectroforesis de nanopartículas por efecto fotovoltaico

El objetivo de esta tesis doctoral es la investigación del nuevo concepto de pinzas fotovoltaicas, es decir, del atrapamiento, ordenación y manipulación de partículas en las estructuras generadas en la superficie de materiales ferroeléctricos mediante campos fotovoltaicos o sus gradientes. Las pinzas fotovoltaicas son una herramienta prometedora para atrapar y mover las partículas en la superficie de un material fotovoltaico de una manera controlada. Para aprovechar esta nueva técnica es necesario conocer con precisión el campo eléctrico creado por una iluminación específica en la superficie del cristal y por encima de ella. Este objetivo se ha dividido en una serie de etapas que se describen a continuación. La primera etapa consistió en la modelización del campo fotovoltaico generado por iluminación no homogénea en substratos y guías de onda de acuerdo al modelo de un centro. En la segunda etapa se estudiaron los campos y fuerzas electroforéticas y dielectroforéticas que aparecen sobre la superficie de substratos iluminados inhomogéneamente. En la tercera etapa se estudiaron sus efectos sobre micropartículas y nanopartículas, en particular se estudió el atrapamiento superficial determinando las condiciones que permiten el aprovechamiento como pinzas fotovoltaicas. En la cuarta y última etapa se estudiaron las configuraciones más eficientes en cuanto a resolución espacial. Se trabajó con distintos patrones de iluminación inhomogénea, proponiéndose patrones de iluminación al equipo experimental. Para alcanzar estos objetivos se han desarrollado herramientas de cálculo con las cuales obtenemos temporalmente todas las magnitudes que intervienen en el problema. Con estas herramientas podemos abstraernos de los complicados mecanismos de atrapamiento y a partir de un patrón de luz obtener el atrapamiento. Todo el trabajo realizado se ha llevado a cabo en dos configuraciones del cristal, en corte X ( superficie de atrapamiento paralela al eje óptico) y corte Z ( superficie de atrapamiento perpendicular al eje óptico). Se ha profundizado en la interpretación de las diferencias en los resultados según la configuración del cristal. Todas las simulaciones y experimentos se han realizado utilizando como soporte un mismo material, el niobato de litio, LiNbO3, con el f n de facilitar la comparación de los resultados. Este hecho no ha supuesto una limitación en los resultados pues los modelos no se limitan a este material. Con respecto a la estructura del trabajo, este se divide en tres partes diferenciadas que son: la introducción (I), la modelización del atrapamiento electroforético y dielectroforético (II) y las simulaciones numéricas y comparación con experimentos (III). En la primera parte se fijan las bases sobre las que se sustentarán el resto de las partes. Se describen los efectos electromagnéticos y ópticos a los que se hará referencia en el resto de los capítulos, ya sea por ser necesarios para describir los experimentos o, en otros casos, para dejar constancia de la no aparición de estos efectos para el caso en que nos ocupa y justificar la simplificación que en muchos casos se hace del problema. En esta parte, se describe principalmente el atrapamiento electroforético y dielectroforético, el efecto fotovoltaico y las propiedades del niobato de litio por ser el material que utilizaremos en experimentos y simulaciones. Así mismo, como no debe faltar en ninguna investigación, se ha analizado el state of the art, revisando lo que otros científicos del campo en el que estamos trabajando han realizado y escrito con el fin de que nos sirva de cimiento a la investigación. Con el capítulo 3 finalizamos esta primera parte describiendo las técnicas experimentales que hoy en día se están utilizando en los laboratorios para realizar el atrapamiento de partículas mediante el efecto fotovoltaico, ya que obtendremos ligeras diferencias en los resultados según la técnica de atrapamiento que se utilice. En la parte I I , dedicada a la modelización del atrapamiento, empezaremos con el capítulo 4 donde modelizaremos el campo eléctrico interno de la muestra, para a continuación modelizar el campo eléctrico, los potenciales y las fuerzas externas a la muestra. En capítulo 5 presentaremos un modelo sencillo para comprender el problema que nos aborda, al que llamamos Modelo Estacionario de Separación de Carga. Este modelo da muy buenos resultados a pesar de su sencillez. Pasamos al capítulo 6 donde discretizaremos las ecuaciones que intervienen en la física interna de la muestra mediante el método de las diferencias finitas, desarrollando el Modelo de Distribución de Carga Espacial. Para terminar esta parte, en el capítulo 8 abordamos la programación de las modelizaciones presentadas en los anteriores capítulos con el fn de dotarnos de herramientas para realizar las simulaciones de una manera rápida. En la última parte, III, presentaremos los resultados de las simulaciones numéricas realizadas con las herramientas desarrolladas y comparemos sus resultados con los experimentales. Fácilmente podremos comparar los resultados en las dos configuraciones del cristal, en corte X y corte Z. Finalizaremos con un último capítulo dedicado a las conclusiones, donde resumiremos los resultados que se han ido obteniendo en cada apartado desarrollado y daremos una visión conjunta de la investigación realizada. ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is the research of the new concept of photovoltaic or optoelectronic tweezers, i.e., trapping, management and manipulation of particles in structures generated by photovoltaic felds or gradients on the surface of ferroelectric materials. Photovoltaic tweezers are a promising tool to trap and move the particles on the surface of a photovoltaic material in a monitored way. To take advantage of this new technique is necessary to know accurately the electric field created by a specifc illumination in the crystal surface and above it. For this purpose, the work was divided into the stages described below. The first stage consisted of modeling the photovoltaic field generated by inhomogeneous illumination in substrates and waveguides according to the one-center model. In the second stage, electrophoretic and dielectrophoretic fields and forces appearing on the surface of substrates and waveguides illuminated inhomogeneously were studied. In the third stage, the study of its effects on microparticles and nanoparticles took place. In particular, the trapping surface was studied identifying the conditions that allow its use as photovoltaic tweezers. In the fourth and fnal stage the most efficient configurations in terms of spatial resolution were studied. Different patterns of inhomogeneous illumination were tested, proposing lightning patterns to the laboratory team. To achieve these objectives calculation tools were developed to get all magnitudes temporarily involved in the problem . With these tools, the complex mechanisms of trapping can be simplified, obtaining the trapping pattern from a light pattern. All research was carried out in two configurations of crystal; in X section (trapping surface parallel to the optical axis) and Z section (trapping surface perpendicular to the optical axis). The differences in the results depending on the configuration of the crystal were deeply studied. All simulations and experiments were made using the same material as support, lithium niobate, LiNbO3, to facilitate the comparison of results. This fact does not mean a limitation in the results since the models are not limited to this material. Regarding the structure of this work, it is divided into three clearly differentiated sections, namely: Introduction (I), Electrophoretic and Dielectrophoretic Capture Modeling (II) and Numerical Simulations and Comparison Experiments (III). The frst section sets the foundations on which the rest of the sections will be based on. Electromagnetic and optical effects that will be referred in the remaining chapters are described, either as being necessary to explain experiments or, in other cases, to note the non-appearance of these effects for the present case and justify the simplification of the problem that is made in many cases. This section mainly describes the electrophoretic and dielectrophoretic trapping, the photovoltaic effect and the properties of lithium niobate as the material to use in experiments and simulations. Likewise, as required in this kind of researches, the state of the art have been analyzed, reviewing what other scientists working in this field have made and written so that serve as a foundation for research. With chapter 3 the first section finalizes describing the experimental techniques that are currently being used in laboratories for trapping particles by the photovoltaic effect, because according to the trapping technique in use we will get slightly different results. The section I I , which is dedicated to the trapping modeling, begins with Chapter 4 where the internal electric field of the sample is modeled, to continue modeling the electric field, potential and forces that are external to the sample. Chapter 5 presents a simple model to understand the problem addressed by us, which is called Steady-State Charge Separation Model. This model gives very good results despite its simplicity. In chapter 6 the equations involved in the internal physics of the sample are discretized by the finite difference method, which is developed in the Spatial Charge Distribution Model. To end this section, chapter 8 is dedicated to program the models presented in the previous chapters in order to provide us with tools to perform simulations in a fast way. In the last section, III, the results of numerical simulations with the developed tools are presented and compared with the experimental results. We can easily compare outcomes in the two configurations of the crystal, in section X and section Z. The final chapter collects the conclusions, summarizing the results that were obtained in previous sections and giving an overview of the research.

Mapping of a Myosin-binding Domain and a Regulatory Phosphorylation Site in M-Protein, a Structural Protein of the Sarcomeric M Band

The myofibrils of cross-striated muscle fibers contain in their M bands cytoskeletal proteins whose main function seems to be the stabilization of the three-dimensional arrangement of thick filaments. We identified two immunoglobin domains (Mp2–Mp3) of M-protein as a site binding to the central region of light meromyosin. This binding is regulated in vitro by phosphorylation of a single serine residue (Ser76) in the immediately adjacent amino-terminal domain Mp1. M-protein phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent kinase A inhibits binding to myosin LMM. Transient transfection studies of cultured cells revealed that the myosin-binding site seems involved in the targeting of M-protein to its location in the myofibril. Using the same method, a second myofibril-binding site was uncovered in domains Mp9–Mp13. These results support the view that specific phosphorylation events could be also important for the control of sarcomeric M band formation and remodeling.

GRO J1008−57: an (almost) predictable transient X-ray binary

A study of archival RXTE, Swift, and Suzaku pointed observations of the transient high-mass X-ray binary GRO J1008−57 is presented. A new orbital ephemeris based on pulse arrival-timing shows the times of maximum luminosities during outbursts of GRO J1008−57 to be close to periastron at orbital phase − 0.03. This makes the source one of a few for which outburst dates can be predicted with very high precision. Spectra of the source in 2005, 2007, and 2011 can be well described by a simple power law with high-energy cutoff and an additional black body at lower energies. The photon index of the power law and the black-body flux only depend on the 15–50 keV source flux. No apparent hysteresis effects are seen. These correlations allow us to predict the evolution of the pulsar’s X-ray spectral shape over all outbursts as a function of just one parameter, the source’s flux. If modified by an additional soft component, this prediction even holds during GRO J1008−57’s 2012 type II outburst.

No anticorrelation between cyclotron line energy and X-ray flux in 4U 0115+634

We report on an outburst of the high mass X-ray binary 4U 0115+634 with a pulse period of 3.6 s in 2008 March/April as observed with RXTE and INTEGRAL. During the outburst the neutron star’s luminosity varied by a factor of 10 in the 3–50 keV band. In agreement with earlier work we find evidence of five cyclotron resonance scattering features at ~10.7, 21.8, 35.5, 46.7, and 59.7 keV. Previous work had found an anticorrelation between the fundamental cyclotron line energy and the X-ray flux. We show that this apparent anticorrelation is probably due to the unphysical interplay of parameters of the cyclotron line with the continuum models used previously, e.g., the negative and positive exponent power law (NPEX). For this model, we show that cyclotron line modeling erroneously leads to describing part of the exponential cutoff and the continuum variability, and not the cyclotron lines. When the X-ray continuum is modeled with a simple exponentially cutoff power law modified by a Gaussian emission feature around 10 keV, the correlation between the line energy and the flux vanishes, and the line parameters remain virtually constant over the outburst. We therefore conclude that the previously reported anticorrelation is an artifact of the assumptions adopted in the modeling of the continuum.

Luminosity dependent accretion state change in GRO J1008–57

In a former publication, we have analyzed the transient neutron star X-ray binary GRO J1008–57 using all available RXTE-, Swift-, and Suzaku-data. As we have found, the source’s spectral components, i.e., a power-law with high exponential cutoff and a black-body, are strongly correlated with the hard X-ray flux (15–50 keV). We update the analytical description of these dependence, including a change in the photon index behaviour from a flat to a logarithmic function. The flux, where the change occurs, is consistent with the onset of the black-body emission. Thus, a change of the accretion state always occurs in GRO J1008–57 at a particular flux level.

The accretion environment in Vela X-1 during a flaring period using XMM-Newton

We present analysis of 100 ks contiguous XMM-Newton data of the prototypical wind accretor Vela X-1. The observation covered eclipse egress between orbital phases 0.134 and 0.265, during which a giant flare took place, enabling us to study the spectral properties both outside and during the flare. This giant flare with a peak luminosity of 3.92+0.42-0.09 × 1037 erg s-1 allows estimates of the physical parameters of the accreted structure with a mass of ~1021 g. We have been able to model several contributions to the observed spectrum with a phenomenological model formed by three absorbed power laws plus three emission lines. After analysing the variations with orbital phase of the column density of each component, as well as those in the Fe and Ni fluorescence lines, we provide a physical interpretation for each spectral component. Meanwhile, the first two components are two aspects of the principal accretion component from the surface of the neutron star, the third component seems to be the X-ray light echo formed in the stellar wind of the companion.

Probing large-scale wind structures in Vela X–1 using off-states with INTEGRAL

Vela X–1 is the prototype of the class of wind-fed accreting pulsars in high-mass X-ray binaries hosting a supergiant donor. We have analysed in a systematic way 10 years of INTEGRAL data of Vela X–1 (22–50 keV) and we found that when outside the X-ray eclipse, the source undergoes several luminosity drops where the hard X-rays luminosity goes below ∼3 × 1035 erg s−1, becoming undetected by INTEGRAL. These drops in the X-ray flux are usually referred to as ‘off-states’ in the literature. We have investigated the distribution of these off-states along the Vela X–1 ∼ 8.9 d orbit, finding that their orbital occurrence displays an asymmetric distribution, with a higher probability to observe an off-state near the pre-eclipse than during the post-eclipse. This asymmetry can be explained by scattering of hard X-rays in a region of ionized wind, able to reduce the source hard X-ray brightness preferentially near eclipse ingress. We associate this ionized large-scale wind structure with the photoionization wake produced by the interaction of the supergiant wind with the X-ray emission from the neutron star. We emphasize that this observational result could be obtained thanks to the accumulation of a decade of INTEGRAL data, with observations covering the whole orbit several times, allowing us to detect an asymmetric pattern in the orbital distribution of off-states in Vela X–1.
