Ion doping behavior of stöber silica-nanosynthesis and application by Song, Xiaohui

“…The new breakthrough helps us to view silica as counter ions trapped inside which is critical to porosity. The elemental analysis, EDX line scan and TEM provide evidence to above hypothesis. …”

Using machine learning to discover candidate localised transcripts from microscopy and genome-wide bioinformatics data by Kiourlappou, M

“…</p> <p>Firstly, I present a YFP protein trap microscopy screen conducted collaboratively by members of the Davis lab for 200 genes in the <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em> larval nervous system. …”

Localized structural and bulk effects in hybrid organic-inoraginc perovskites by Wong, Walter Pei De

“…DFT simulations provided an indication that charge carriers in MAPbI3 exists as localized polarons, thus, the experimental studies seek spectroscopic evidence for the existence for these self-trapped polaronic states. Through a combination of steady state photoinduced absorption, transient absorption and transient photocurrent measurements, this chapter has confirmed the existence of theoretically predicted polaronic states in MAPbI3 which finds its origins in the ‘soft’ lead – iodide bond. …”

Dynamics in blue emitting metal halide perovskites for light emitting diodes by Karlsson, Max

“…Successful implementation in LEDs has been attributed to efficient carrier funneling from large bandgap (donor) regions to low bandgap regions (acceptors) resulting in improved luminescence yields due to trap state filling from the locally increased carrier density. …”

Dynamics and stability of evaporating and condensing liquid layers by Wei, Tao

“…In the (1+1)-dimensional [(1+1)D] simulation, well-defined capillary ridges can be observed on both sides of the valley under positive gravity (G > 0) and main and secondary droplets are expected to be seen under negative gravity (G < 0), while a ridge can be trapped in a large-scale drained region in both cases. …”

Investigation of charge transport in nanofiber based solar cells by Sabba Dharani

“…Therefore one dimensional nanostructures are being explored as a replacement for nanoparticles with the aim of improving charge transport by providing a directional path for charge percolation and by reducing the surface traps and density of grain bound- aries associated with nanoparticles. …”

Effects of microwave frying on physicochemical properties of edible oils and quality of potato chips by Elfaitouri, Taher A.Houssein

“…The oil distribution in microwaved potato chips fried under different microwave frying conditions showed that a crust developed during microwave frying. Oil was trapped only in intercellular spaces, which was strongly linked to the microstructure (not only in intercellular spaces but also over some cells). …”

Interface engineering for organic−inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells by Foo, Shini

“…To address these challenges, intensive developments have been made recently to interfacial engineering so as to reduce the amount of undesirable trap states in OIHP solar cells. Although significant progress has been made to improve the device performance and stability of OIHP solar cells using interfacial engineering, the preferable properties of passivation material utilized at various interfaces are often overlooked. …”

Development of human enterovirus 71 nano calcium phosphate adjuvanted candidate vaccine for parenteral and mucosal delivery by Saeed Ahmed, Mohamed Ibrahim

“…The alginate formulations had no effect on the IgA levels, it seems the vaccine epitopes were trapped in the alginate composite. The effect of joint dual immunization parenteral and mucosal routes (nano-CaP-HEV71 killed-virus (ID) and vaccine encapsulated in chitosan through the buccal delivery) to the same animals induced enhanced both types of systemic and mucosal antibody responses, as displayed in serum IgG and salivary IgA antibody levels towards the vaccine. …”
