Abstract: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and electroencephalography (EEG) are integrated, including re-using electrodes to perform both tDCS and EEG, and automatically alternating EEG collection and tDCS application. EEG and tDCS functionalities are integrated into a single headset. Improvements in tDCS include realizing multiple tDCS current flow configurations without repositioning electrodes, and concurrently applying multiple independent tDCS currents to a subject.

Abstract: A charge-free method of forming a nanostructure at low temperatures on a substrate. A substrate that is reactive with one of atomic oxygen and nitrogen is provided. A flux of neutral atoms of least one of oxygen and nitrogen is generated within a laser-sustained-discharge plasma source and a collimated beam of energetic neutral atoms and molecules is directed from the plasma source onto a surface of the substrate to form the nanostructure. The energetic neutral atoms and molecules in the beam have an average kinetic energy in a range from about 1 eV to about 5 eV.

Abstract: A barrier structure for use in an electrochemical stochastic membrane sensor for single molecule detection. The sensor is based upon inorganic nanopores having electrically tunable dimensions. The inorganic nanopores are formed from inorganic materials and an electrically conductive polymer. Methods of making the barrier structure and sensing single molecules using the barrier structure are also described.
