Studies on the performance bounds and design of current-steering DACs by Chacón, Oscar Morales

“…Yet, higher frequency synthesis results in augmented power consumption, which can significantly impact the wireless network if multiple DACs are utilized, e.g., in massive multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) antenna systems with digital beamforming as well as in end-user’s handheld devices subject to a less prolonged battery life. Moreover, advances in digital signal processing and integrated-circuit fabrication, leading to reduced power consumption and cost as well as more flexibility in software-defined radio transmitters have motivated the displacement of analog/RF circuits to the digital domain. …”

A tandem-locked chemiluminescent probe for imaging of tumor-associated macrophage polarization by Huang, Jingsheng, Xu, Mengke, Cheng, Penghui, Yu, Jie, Wu, Jiayan, Pu, Kanyi

“…Through a combined molecular engineering approach via both atomic alternation and introduction of electron-withdrawing groups, near-infrared (NIR) chemiluminophores are screened out to possess record-long emission (over 800 nm), record-high CL quantum yield (2.7 % einstein/mol), and prolonged half-life (7.7 h). Based on an ideal chemiluminophore, the tandem-locked probe (DPDGN) is developed to only activate CL signal in the presence of both tumour (γ-glutamyl transpeptidase) and M1 macrophage biomarkers (nitric oxide). …”
