Dark current analysis of InasSb-based hetero-p-i-n mid-infrared photodiode by Suo, Fei, Tong, Jinchao, Zhang, Dao Hua

“…For the typical square mesa with 350 μm side length, at the bias of -0.4 V, the dark current density is 1.78 A/cm2 for T=293 K, and reduces to 0.4 A/cm2 for T=77 K, where the room-temperature value is lower than or comparable with that of the state-of-the-art mid-infrared photodetectors. …”

Homologous Lympho-epithelial Kazal-type inhibitor domains delay blood coagulation by inhibiting factor X and XI with differential specificity by Ramesh, Karthik, Lama, Dilraj, Tan, Kang Wei, Nguyen, Van Sang, Chew, Fook Tim, Verma, Chandra Shekhar, Mok, Yu Keung

“…A model of the LEKTI-protease complex revealed that FXaB has a narrower S4 pocket compared with FXIa and hence prefers only small side-chain residues at the P4 position, such as Ala in LEKTI domain 6. Mutational studies combined with a molecular complex model suggest that both a more flexible reactive-site loop and a bulky residue at the P4 position make LEKTI domain 4 a weaker but highly selective inhibitor of FXIa.…”

Humans first: why people value animals less than humans by Caviola, L, Schubert, S, Kahane, G, Faber, NS

“…The key driver behind moral anthropocentrism was thus mere species-membership (<em>speciesism</em>). However, all else equal, participants still gave more moral weight to individuals with higher mental capacities (<em>individual mental capacity principle</em>), suggesting that the belief that humans have higher mental capacities than animals is part of the reason that they give humans moral priority. …”
