We report record DC and RF performance in deeply-scaled self-aligned gate (SAG) GaN-HEMTs operating in both depletion-mode (D-mode) and enhancement-mode (E-mode). Through aggressive lateral scaling of the gate length (Lg) and the source-drain distance (Lsd) using a novel self-aligned gate technology and engineering of…
In this study, Cu/Cu2O hollow microspheres (HMs) were fabricated by over-reduction of copper(II) with ethylene glycol under solvothermal conditions. The resultant products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The results reveal that the reaction time and t…
An implementation of two-photon absorption matrix elements using the approximate second-order coupled-cluster singles and doubles model CC2 is presented. In this implementation we use the resolution-of-the-identity approximation for the two-electron repulsion integrals to reduce the computational cost. To avoid storag…
Generation of structural color is one of the essential functions realized by living organisms, and its industrial reproduction can result in numerous applications. From this viewpoint, the mechanisms, materials, analytical methods and fabrication technologies of the structural color are reviewed in this paper. In part…
In this paper, the key topics of tunable structural color in biology and material science are overviewed. Color in biology is considered for selected groups of tropical fish, octopus, squid and beetle. It is caused by nanoplates in iridophores and varies with their spacing, tilting angle and refractive index. These ex…
BACKGROUND: The piRNA pathway has been shown in model organisms to be involved in silencing of transposons thereby providing genome stability. In D. melanogaster the majority of piRNAs map to these sequences. The medically important mosquito species Aedes aegypti has a large genome size, a high transposon load which i…
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate the intestinal mucus-penetrating properties and intestinal cellular uptake of two types of liposomes modified by Pluronic F127 (PF127). METHODS: The two types of liposomes, ie, PF127-inlaid liposomes and PF127-adsorbed liposomes, were prepared by a thin-film hydrati…
Ideal biomaterials for bone grafts must be biocompatible, osteoconductive, osteoinductive and have appropriate mechanical properties. For this, the development of synthetic bone substitutes mimicking natural bone is desirable, but this requires controllable mineralization of the collagen matrix. In this study, densifi…
In this work, 3-D Tri-gate and ultra-thin body planar InGaAs quantum well field effect transistors (QWFETs) with high-K gate dielectric and scaled gate-to-source/gate-to-drain (LSIDE) have been fabricated and compared. For the first time, 3-D Tri-gate InGaAs devices demonstrate electrostatics improvement over the ultr…
A technologically simple optical fiber cross-section structure with a negative-curvature hollow-core has been proposed for the delivery of the CO2 laser radiation. The structure was optimized numerically and then realized using Te20As30Se50 (TAS) chalcogenide glass. Guidance of the 10.6 µm СО2-laser radiation through…
We report two-dimensional quantum transport in SrMnBi${}_{2}$ single crystals. The linear energy dispersion leads to unusual nonsaturated linear magnetoresistance since all Dirac fermions occupy the lowest Landau level in the quantum limit. The transverse magnetoresistance exhibits a crossover at a critical field ${B}…
Oyster shell is a crucial component of healthy oyster reefs. Shell planting has been a main component of oyster restoration efforts in many habitats and has been carried out on scales from individual and grassroots efforts to multiagency efforts across entire estuaries. However, the cycling and lifetime of the shell t…
Monochloropropanediol (MCPD) fatty acid esters are process contaminants generated during the deodorisation of edible oils. In particular, MCPD diesters are found in higher abundance in refined palm oil than other edible oils. In the present study, a series of model reactions mimicking palm oil deodorisation has been c…
The spontaneous emission characteristics of green- and red-emitting InGaN quantum wells (QWs) on ternary InGaN substrate are analyzed, and the radiative recombination rates for the QWs grown on ternary substrate were compared with those of InGaN QWs on GaN templates. For green- and red-emitting InGaN QWs on In0.15Ga0.…
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are cyclic oligosaccharides composed of D-glucopyranoside units linked by glycosidic bonds. Their main property is the ability to modify the physicochemical and biological characteristics of low-soluble drugs through the formation of drug:CD inclusion complexes. Inclusion complexation requires that…
Monodisperse 35 nm FeO nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized and oxidized in a dry air atmosphere into core/shell FeO/Fe(3)O(4) NPs with both FeO core and Fe(3)O(4) shell dimensions controlled by reaction temperature and time. Temperature-dependent magnetic properties were studied on FeO/Fe(3)O(4) NPs obtained from the…
The review summarizes the abundant information on the 35 identified peptidoglycan (PG) hydrolases of Escherichia coli classified into 12 distinct families, including mainly glycosidases, peptidases, and amidases. An attempt is also made to critically assess their functions in PG maturation, turnover, elongation, septa…
This manuscript got started when one of us (G.H.M.) presented a lecture at the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications at the University of Minnesota. The presentation included a photograph of Rayleigh and made frequent mention of the Ohnesorge number. When the other of us (M.R.) enquired about a picture of Ohne…
BACKGROUND: Although there are a number of reports regarding the toxicity evaluation of inorganic nanoparticles, knowledge on biodegradable nanomaterials, which have always been considered safe, is still limited. For example, the toxicity of chitosan nanoparticles, one of the most widely used drug/gene delivery vehicl…
Flash nonvolatile memory has been widely applied in portable electronic products. However, traditional flash memory is expected to reach physical limits as its dimensions are scaled down; the charges stored in the floating gate can leak out more easily through a thin tunneling oxide, causing a serious reliability issu…
