This chapter introduces the finite element method (FEM) as a tool for solution of classical electromagnetic problems. Although we discuss the main points in the application of the finite element method to electromagnetic design, including formulation and implementation, those who seek deeper understanding of the finite element method should consult some of the works listed in the bibliography section.

Large-Scale Fabrication of Boron Nitride Nanosheets and Their Utilization in Polymeric Composites with Improved Thermal and Mechanical Properties

Damascene copper electroplating for on-chip interconnections, a process that we conceived and developed in the early 1990s, makes it possible to fill submicron trenches and vias with copper without creating a void or a seam and has thus proven superior to other technologies of copper deposition. We discuss here the relationship of additives in the plating bath to superfilling, the phenomenon that results in superconformal coverage, and we present a numerical model which accounts for the experimentally observed profile evolution of the plated metal.

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is garnering considerable attention for the swift diagnosis of pathogens and abnormal biological status, that is, cancers. In this work, a simple, fast and inexpensive optical sensing platform is developed by the design of SERS sampling and data analysis. The pretreatment of spectral measurement employed gold nanoparticle colloid mixing with the serum from patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). The droplet of particle-serum mixture formed coffee-ring-like region at the rim, providing strong and stable SERS profiles. The obtained spectra from cancer patients and healthy volunteers were analyzed by unsupervised principal component analysis (PCA) and supervised machine learning model, such as support-vector machine (SVM), respectively. The results demonstrate that the SVM model provides the superior performance in the classification of CRC diagnosis compared with PCA. In addition, the values of carcinoembryonic antigen from the blood samples were compiled with the corresponding SERS spectra for SVM calculation, yielding improved prediction results.

Optoplasmonic materials comprising both photonic and plasmonic elements are of particular interest for the development of substrates for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). In this work, a layer of analyte-carrying dielectric nano/microspheres is placed on top of a monolayer of gold nanoparticles to enhance the intensity of the electric (E-) field localization and to enrich the analyte close to the electromagnetic hot spots. Numerical simulations of the hybrid structure confirm an increased and spatially expanded E-field enhancement at the interface. Due to a decreasing filling fraction with increasing size of the dielectric spheres, simulations predict a saturated SERS enhancement for dielectric microspheres with a diameter larger than 4 μm, which is confirmed by experimental SERS measurements. The dielectric microsphere can be functionalized with surface ligands that facilitate the binding of target molecules in solution. The deposition of the analyte-loaded microspheres on the self-assembled gold nanoparticle ensures a high local concentration of analytes in the electromagnetic "hot" surface. The performance of the optoplasmonic SERS approach for detecting methamphetamine in saliva and urine is tested, and the detection of analytes at nanomolar (nM) concentrations is demonstrated.
