Conformational changes involved in signal transduction in avian cryptochromes by Gehrckens, AS

“…</p> <p>Finally, by mapping conformational changes found in molecular dynamics simulations onto changes observed in a previous HDX-MS data set on the <em>Drosophila</em> cryptochrome, a few gaps left by the incomplete coverage of the current experimental data were filled by acquiring information on the phosphate-binding loop and the protrusion motif, two regions which have also been found to undergo light-induced structural changes for the avian cryptochromes investigated. …”

Investigation on the role of Sb doping on grain growth and properties of solution-processed CuIn(S,Se)2 by Ho, John Chun Wan

“…The enhanced lifetimes can be attributed to defect related recombination from less grain boundaries and the higher density of secondary (204)/(220) grain orientations which has lower density of non-radiative recombination centers. Conductive AFM mapping on Sb doped device with best device performance shows similar current map under positive bias and minimal current when the tip bias is negative, illustrating minimal leakage current in the device. …”
