Multiplicative resonant enhancement of chemical detection by Ma, Wenchao, Pestourie, Raphaël, Lin, Zin, Aguirre-Soto, Alan, Sikes, Hadley D., Johnson, Steven G.

“…Optical resonances can increase the sensitivity of measurements to material perturbations and also accelerate photochemical reactions. Here, we show that these two effects can be combined multiplicatively, to enhance the detection via weak or low-concentration photochemical reactions far beyond what could previously be attained. …”

Characterizing the Impact of Oligomerization on Redox Flow Cell Performance by Weiss, Trent A, Fan, Gang, Neyhouse, Bertrand J, Moore, Evan B, Furst, Ariel, Brushett, Fikile R

“…Redox‐active oligomers (RAOs) have recently been proposed for mitigating this phenomenon while maintaining sufficient transport properties; however, to date, few studies have quantified how the chemical and electrochemical properties of RAOs influence their performance in redox flow cells. Here, we demonstrate that oligomeric derivatives of 2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidine 1‐oxyl (TEMPO) exhibit lower diffusivities than the monomeric species but retain facile charge transfer characteristics. …”

Dataset Design for Building Models of Chemical Reactivity by Raghavan, Priyanka, Haas, Brittany C, Ruos, Madeline E, Schleinitz, Jules, Doyle, Abigail G, Reisman, Sarah E, Sigman, Matthew S, Coley, Connor W

“…Perhaps the most determining factor is the composition of the training data and whether it is sufficient to train a model that can make accurate predictions over the full domain of interest. Here, we discuss the design of reaction datasets in ways that are conducive to data-driven modeling, emphasizing the idea that training set diversity and model generalizability rely on the choice of molecular or reaction representation. …”

Engineering protein thermostability using a generic activity-independent biophysical screen inside the cell by Asial, Ignacio, Cheng, Yue Xiang, Engman, Henrik, Dollhopf, Maria, Wu, Binghuang, Nordlund, Pär, Cornvik, Tobias

“…Unfortunately, identifying stabilizing mutations is not trivial since most are neutral or deleterious. Here we describe a high-throughput colony-based stability screen, which is a direct and biophysical read-out of intrinsic protein stability in contrast to traditional indirect activity-based methods. …”

A multimodal approach to analysis of steady state visually evoked potentials by Vij, Nikhil, Zuobin, Wu, Bjornsdotter, Malin, Dauwels, Justin, Vialatte, François-Benoît

“…Steady state visually evoked potentials (SSVEPs), recorded from the central nervous system of humans using electroencephalography (EEG) in response to visual stimuli, have recently gained attention in cognitive and clinical neuroscience [1]. Here, we fuse EEG SSVEPs with recordings from functional magnetic resonance imaging data (fMRI) utilizing the millisecond temporal resolution of the former and the excellent spatial resolution of the latter. …”

Dielectric metamaterials with toroidal dipolar response by Economou, Eleftherios N., Soukoulis, Costas M., Fedotov, Vassili A., Savinov, Vassili, Zheludev, Nikolay I., Basharin, Alexey A., Kafesaki, Maria

“…Toroidal multipoles are the terms missing in the standard multipole expansion; they are usually overlooked due to their relatively weak coupling to the electromagnetic fields. Here, we propose and theoretically study all-dielectric metamaterials of a special class that represent a simple electromagnetic system supporting toroidal dipolar excitations in the THz part of the spectrum. …”
