Temperature Measurement Sites

1.5K
A thermometer measures body temperature. The common sites for measuring body temperature are the oral cavity, axillary region, temporal artery, and skin surface, such as the forehead, abdomen, and axilla. True core body temperature is assessed in the rectum, tympanic membrane, pulmonary artery, esophagus, and urinary bladder.
Oral: When assessing oral temperature, the thermometer tip should be placed under the tongue in the posterior sublingual pocket. It offers accurate readings and can be...

IR Spectrometers

1.1K
There are two main infrared (IR) spectrophotometers: dispersive IR spectrometers and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometers. In a dispersive IR spectrometer, a beam of infrared radiation produced by a hot wire is divided into two parallel equal-intensity beams using mirrors. One beam passes through the sample, while another is a reference beam. The beams then move through the monochromator, which separates the radiations into a continuous spectrum of different frequencies. The...

Body temperature can be assessed using various devices and measured in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Glass-bulb Thermometer:
Glass-bulb thermometers are hollow glass tubes with a bulb tip containing liquid such as ethanol or mercury. Historically, glass bulb mercury thermometers were the standard device to measure body temperature. Today, mercury thermometers are prohibited in many countries due to the hazardous effects of mercury and the risk of exposure if the glass bulb breaks. In general,...

Area of Science:

  • Photonics and Nanotechnology
  • Sensor Technology
  • Optical Metamaterials

Background:

  • Metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguides are crucial for plasmonic devices.
  • Fano resonance, arising from coupled narrow and wideband modes, offers sharp spectral features for sensing.

  • To investigate the sensor's performance for refractive index sensing.
  • To explore the potential of the designed structure as a temperature sensor.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized the finite element method (FEM) for numerical simulation and characterization of the nanoscale sensor.
  • Analyzed the Fano resonance phenomenon resulting from the interaction between discrete and continuous modes.
  • Evaluated sensor sensitivity and figure of merit (FOM) based on simulation results.
