Unraveling heterogeneity in transcriptome and its regulation through single-cell multi-omics technologies by Xing, Qiao Rui, Cipta, Nadia Omega, Hamashima, Kiyofumi, Liou, Yih-Cherng, Koh, Cheng-Gee, Loh, Yuin-Han

“…To deconstruct the heterogeneity, a multitude of single-cell toolkits measuring various cellular contents, including genome, transcriptome, epigenome, and proteome, have been developed. More recently, multi-omics single-cell techniques enable the capture of molecular footprints with a higher resolution by simultaneously profiling various cellular contents within an individual cell. …”

A flat carborane with multiple aromaticity beyond Wade–Mingos’ rules by Lu, Wei, Do, Dinh Cao Huan, Kinjo, Rei

“…While recent computational studies propose that the increase of skeletal electrons of polyhedral clusters leads to the flat structure beyond the PSEPT, little experimental evidence has been demonstrated. Herein, we report the synthesis of a C2B4R4 carborane 2 featuring a flat ribbon-like structure. …”

1 × N (N = 2, 8) Silicon selector switch for prospective technologies at the 2 μm waveband by Sia, Brian Jia Xu, Li, Xiang, Qiao, Zhongliang, Guo, Xin, Zhou, Jin, Littlejohns, Callum G., Liu, Chongyang, Reed, Graham T., Wang, Wanjun, Wang, Hong

“…As an elementary cell (N = 2), an insertion loss as low as 1.1 dB, P π of 23 mW, 10-90% switching time of lower than 38 μs and a crosstalk of lower than -25 dB from 1880 to 1955 nm has been determined. In order to prove scalability, the 1 × 8 switch (N = 8) is demonstrated, indicating crosstalk as low as -21 dB, considering all possible switching configurations across the abovementioned wavelength region. …”
