Soto H, Tong MA, Domínguez JC, Muraoka R.
PMID: 29041496
Opt Express. 2017 Sep 04;25(18):22066-22081. doi: 10.1364/OE.25.022066.

We have inserted into an unbiased semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) a powerful control beam, with photon energy slightly smaller than that of the band-gap of its active region, for exciting two-photon absorption and the quadratic Stark effect. For the...

BACKGROUND: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is a major side effect of anti-cancer drugs, and our knowledge of its mechanisms is lacking. Several models for chemotherapy-induced neuropathy have been introduced. However, the outcomes of these models differ significantly among laboratories. Our...

Low-dimensional ScO2 with tunable electronic and magnetic properties: first-principles studies.

Journal of physics. Condensed matter : an Institute of Physics journal

Zhang H, Tong CJ, Wu J, Yin WJ, Zhang YN.
PMID: 26571138

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted extensive attention due to their appealing properties for device applications. In this work, we explored the structure stability, electronic structure and magnetism of low-dimensional scandium dioxides, ScO2, by using the first-principles calculations. The...

Numerical study of weak polybase brushes grafted on neutral or charged spherical surface by the self-consistent field theory.

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids

PMID: 25459349
Langmuir. 2014 Dec 23;30(50):15301-8. doi: 10.1021/la503526a. Epub 2014 Dec 12.

The self-consistent field theory (SCFT) is employed to numerically study the response of weak polybase type polymer chains grafted on a sphere to electric fields generated by the uniform positive or negative charges on the grafting substrate in the...

Impact of phytic acid on nutrient bioaccessibility and antioxidant properties of dehusked rice.

Journal of food science and technology

Lee HH, Loh SP, Bong CF, Sarbini SR, Yiu PH.
PMID: 26604353
J Food Sci Technol. 2015 Dec;52(12):7806-16. doi: 10.1007/s13197-015-1918-9. Epub 2015 Jun 23.

Whole grains consumption promotes health benefits, but demonstrates controversial impacts from phytic acid in meeting requirements of good health. Therefore, this study was aimed to determine the nutrient bioaccessibility and antioxidant properties of rice cultivars named "Adan" or "Bario"...

BACKGROUND: Advanced inoperable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) conferring a grave prognosis may benefit from yttrium-90 ((90)Y) radioembolization.METHODS: Thirty patients with advanced inoperable HCC including those with any lesion >8 cm in maximal diameter or multiple bi-lobar lesions (totally more than...

Dynamical control on helicity of electromagnetic waves by tunable metasurfaces.

Scientific reports

Xu HX, Sun S, Tang S, Ma S, He Q, Wang GM, Cai T, Li HP, Zhou L.
PMID: 27272350
Sci Rep. 2016 Jun 08;6:27503. doi: 10.1038/srep27503.

Manipulating the polarization states of electromagnetic (EM) waves, a fundamental issue in optics, attracted intensive attention recently. However, most of the devices realized so far are either too bulky in size, and/or are passive with only specific functionalities. Here...

Axons take a dive: Specialized contacts of serotonergic axons with cells in the walls of the lateral ventricles in mice and humans.

Neurogenesis (Austin). 2014 Jan 01;1(1). doi: 10.4161/neur.29341.

In the walls of the lateral ventricles of the adult mammalian brain, neural stem cells (NSCs) and ependymal (E1) cells share the apical surface of the ventricular-subventricular zone (V-SVZ). In a recent article, we show that supraependymal serotonergic (5HT)...
