Optical properties of semi-conductive MXene Sc2COx, CsPbBr3 nanoplatelets and quantum dots by Chen, Qiran

“…A higher density of the injected carrier is needed for smaller quantum dots to get a positive optical gain. The peak of optical gain has a blue shift as the size of a quantum dot decreases. …”

Tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy versus non‐surgical treatment for chronic/recurrent acute tonsillitis by Burton, MJ, Glasziou, PP, Chong, LY, Venekamp, RP

“…It is clear that some children get better without any surgery, and that whilst removing the tonsils will always prevent 'tonsillitis', the impact of the procedure on 'sore throats' due to pharyngitis is much less predictable. …”
