Femtosecond laser interaction with fused silica in surface structuring by Tan, Tong Tat

“…Femtosecond laser has been considered as an advanced technique for microfabrication and micromachining of various multi-functional structures in dielectric materials through multi-photon absorption because of its high-quality and damage-free processing. However, femtosecond beam-glass interaction can be very complex when coupled with the non-linear effect of air and this is not well understood. …”

Carbon–cement supercapacitors as a scalable bulk energy storage solution by Chanut, Nicolas, Stefaniuk, Damian, Weaver, James C., Zhu, Yunguang, Shao-Horn, Yang, Masic, Admir, Ulm, Franz-Josef

“…Texture analysis reveals that the hydration reactions of cement in the presence of carbon generate a fractal-like electron-conducting carbon network that permeates the load-bearing cement-based matrix. The energy storage capacity of this space-filling carbon black network of the high specific surface area accessible to charge storage is shown to be an intensive quantity, whereas the high-rate capability of the carbon-cement electrodes exhibits self-similarity due to the hydration porosity available for charge transport. …”

SARS-CoV-2 evolution during treatment of chronic infection by Kemp, SA, Collier, DA, Datir, RP, Ferreira, IATM, Gayed, S, Jahun, A, Hosmillo, M, Rees-Spear, C, Mlcochova, P, Lumb, IU, Roberts, DJ, Chandra, A, Temperton, N, Sharrocks, K, Blane, E, Modis, Y, Leigh, KE, Briggs, JAG, van Gils, MJ, Smith, KGC, Bradley, JR, Smith, C, Doffinger, R, Ceron-Gutierrez, L, Barcenas-Morales, G, Pollock, DD, Goldstein, RA, Smielewska, A, Skittrall, JP, Gouliouris, T, Goodfellow, IG, Gkrania-Klotsas, E, Illingworth, CJR, McCoy, LE, Gupta, RK

“…In vitro, the spike double mutant bearing both ΔH69/ΔV70 and D796H conferred modestly decreased sensitivity to convalescent plasma, while maintaining infectivity levels that were similar to the wild-type virus.The spike substitution mutant D796H appeared to be the main contributor to the decreased susceptibility to neutralizing antibodies, but this mutation resulted in an infectivity defect. …”

Molecular pathways leading to sleep and wakefulness in Drosophila by Christodoulou, K

“…In the chronically sleep-deprived flies bearing a mutation for the crossveinless-c (cv-c) gene, the dFB neurons were previously found in electrical quiescence as well. …”

Variations in the composition and biochemical attributes of Eucalyptus camaldulensis L. leaves essential oil as function of drying methods by Saleem, Misbah, Shaheen, Muhammad Ashraf, Qadir, Rahman, Saba, Iram, Rehman, Muhammad Misbah ur, Paracha, Rizwan Nasir, Ahmad, Nazir, Riaz, Muhammad, Anwar, Farooq

Response of geostationary communications satellite solid-state power amplifiers to high-energy electron fluence by Lohmeyer, Whitney, Carlton, Ashley, Wong, Frankie, Bodeau, Michael, Kennedy, Andrew, Cahoy, Kerri

“…We also find that the accumulated voltages reached are high enough to compromise components in the amplifier system, for example, the direct current (DC) blocking capacitor. An electron beam test using a representative coaxial cable terminated in a blocking capacitor showed that discharges could occur with peak voltages and energies sufficient to damage active RF semiconductor devices.…”
