High-efficiency all-inorganic full-colour quantum dot light-emitting diodes by Yang, Xuyong, Zhang, Zi-Hui, Ding, Tao, Wang, Ning, Chen, Guo, Dang, Cuong, Demir, Hilmi Volkan, Sun, Xiao Wei

“…However, the performance for the present all-inorganic QLEDs is far inferior to that of the well-developed QLEDs with organic charge transport layers. Our all-inorganic full-colour QLEDs show the maximum brightness and efficiency values of 21,600 cd/m2 and 6.52%, respectively, which are record-breaking among the existing all-inorganic QLEDs. …”

Distributed quantum computing across an optical network link by Main, D, Drmota, P, Nadlinger, DP, Ainley, EM, Agrawal, A, Nichol, BC, Srinivas, R, Araneda, G, Lucas, DM

“…Photonic networks are well suited as a versatile and reconfigurable interconnect layer for DQC; remote entanglement shared between matter qubits across the network enables all-to-all logical connectivity through quantum gate teleportation (QGT)3, 4. …”

Measurement of mass attenuation coefficient of paraffin wax by using low energy x-ray by Daud, Nurul Shazliana Mohamad

“…This study explores the mass attenuation coefficient properties of paraffin wax at kilovoltage x-ray energies and compares these properties with those of solid water phantom, water, and Perspex, which are commonly used to mimic human tissue. Using the Half-Value Layer (HVL) method, we determined the effective energies for 60, 81, and 125 kVp, finding values of 35.22, 37.57, and 41.20 keV, respectively. …”

Upper mantle rheology from GRACE and GPS postseismic deformation after the 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake by Banerjee, Paramesh, Panet, I., Mikhailov, V., Diament, M., Grijalva, K., Pollitz, Fred F.

“…The observed GPS displacements and gravity variations are well explained by a model of viscoelastic relaxation plus a small amount of afterslip at the downdip extension of the coseismically ruptured fault planes. Our model uses a 60 km thick elastic layer above a viscoelastic asthenosphere with Burgers body rheology. …”

Automated detection and localization of myocardial infarction with staked sparse autoencoder and TreeBagger by Zhang, Jieshuo, Lin, Feng, Xiong, Peng, Du, Haiman, Zhang, Hong, Liu, Ming, Hou, Zengguang, Liu, Xiuling

“…Novel techniques in deep learning networks are proposed for the staked sparse autoencoder (SAE) and the bagged decision tree (TreeBagger), achieving significant improvement in detection and localization of myocardial infarction (MI) from single-lead electrocardiograph (ECG) signals. With our layer-wise training strategies, the SAE-based diagnostic feature extraction network can automatically and steadily extract the deep distinguishing diagnostic features of the single-lead ECG signals and avoid the vanishing gradient problem. …”

Effect of hydraulic retention time on performances of gravity-driven membrane (GDM) reactor for seawater pretreatment by Lee, Seonki, Nötzli, Peter Andreas, Burkhardt, Michael, Wu, Bing, Chong, Tzyy Haur

“…Extending HRT benefited to reduce irreversible fouling, but cake layer fouling was maximized at HRT of 54 h. As different HRTs led to significantly dissimilar microbial community structure and cake layer composition, such higher cake layer resistance at HRT of 54 h was attributed to homogenous nature of the biofilm, which contained greater amount of organics and less abundance of Nematoda (dominant predator). …”
