Size-suppressed dielectrics of Ge nanocrystals : skin-deep quantum entrapment by Goh, Eunice S. M., Yang, H. Y., Liu, Y., Chen, Tupei, Sun, Changqing

“…Here we show that theoretical reproduction of the measured dielectric suppression of Ge nanocrystals asserts that the dielectric suppression originates from the shorter and stronger bonds at the skin-deep surface, the associated local densification and quantum entrapment of energy. Coordination-imperfection induced local quantum entrapment perturbs the Hamiltonian that determines the band gap and hence, the process of electron polarization consequently.…”

Oral Carbon Monoxide Enhances Autophagy Modulation in Prostate, Pancreatic, and Lung Cancers by Bi, Jianling, Witt, Emily, McGovern, Megan K., Cafi, Arielle B., Rosenstock, Lauren L., Pearson, Anna B., Brown, Timothy J., Karasic, Thomas B., Absler, Lucas C., Machkanti, Srija, Boyce, Hannah, Gallo, David, Becker, Sarah L., Ishida, Keiko, Jenkins, Joshua, Hayward, Alison, Scheiflinger, Alexandra, Bodeker, Kellie L., Kumar, Ritesh, Shaw, Scott K., Jabbour, Salma K., Lira, Vitor A., Henry, Michael D., Tift, Michael S., Otterbein, Leo E., Traverso, Giovanni, Byrne, James D.

“…Recognizing that smoking is associated with elevated circulating levels of carbon monoxide (CO), it is hypothesized that supplemental CO can amplify autophagy inhibition. A novel, gas‐entrapping material containing CO in a pre‐clinical model is applied and demonstrated that CO can dramatically increase the cytotoxicity of autophagy inhibitors and significantly inhibit the growth of tumors when used in combination. …”

Freezing behaviour of impact droplet on cooled super-hydrophilic mesh and silicon wafer by Chang, Chern Jie

“…A brief extension of the investigation is conducted on a novel pressed-mesh substrate (stainless steel mesh pressed into sheet aluminium) and it is shown that macro-scale mesh properties such as a higher open-area-ratio leads to lesser droplet spreading and more bubble entrapment on impact. This bubble entrapment leads to lower heat transfer rate and slower freezing, showing that macro-scale geometrical features can be used to influence freezing rate.…”
