Structural and mechanistic insights into the Rel protein of Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Singal, Bharti

“…The MtRel NTD in the presence of TGS domain showed almost similar synthetic activity as of MtRel NTD and approximately 3 fold higher than that of MtRel showing auto-inhibition by rest of the C-terminus MtRel segment. The MtRel ACT structure was determined as a dimer and the oligomeric state was further confirmed using SAXS. …”

Design of a supply- and temperature-invariant capacitive sensor interface for low power applications by Arup Kocheethra George

“…Most importantly, the CDC should operate in an ultra-low power regime. Since the full-scale capacitance change of practical capacitive sensors is limited, the CDC has to achieve sensing resolutions of several femto-farads. …”

Near-IR and mid-IR (1.55 μm – 2 μm) silicon photonics devices on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform by Zhang, Zecen

“…Furthermore, the mid-infrared (MIR, 2-15 μm) band is also very crucial as many gases and molecules have unique absorption fingerprints in this regime. Hence there is enormous interest in practical realization of passive and optoelectronic devices operating in the MIR range, including optical sensing and environmental monitoring, free-space communications, bio-medical and thermal imaging. …”

Dynamics and stability of evaporating and condensing liquid layers by Wei, Tao

“…With the 1.5-sided model, a regular non-rupture stable pattern is found in the Rayleigh–Taylor unstable layer due to local evaporation and condensation in the diffusion-limited regime. This is in sharp contrast to the prediction of the one-sided model without the convective and diffusive effects of vapor, where local rupture always occurs in finite time. …”
