In situ nanoscopy of single-grain nanomorphology and ultrafast carrier dynamics in metal halide perovskites by Zizlsperger, M, Nerreter, S, Yuan, Q, Lohmann, KB, Sandner, F, Schiegl, F, Meineke, C, Gerasimenko, YA, Herz, LM, Siday, T, Huber, MA, Johnston, MB, Huber, R

“…The record-breaking efficiencies of metal halide perovskite solar cells have been linked to effective charge-carrier diffusion, yet the exact nature of charge-carrier out-of-plane transport remains notoriously difficult to explain. …”

Income change and sympathy for right-wing populist parties in the Netherlands: the role of gender and income inequality within households by Roll, Y, De Graaf, N

“…For both men and women, household income change is negatively linked with sympathies towards RWP parties. These results lend partial support to both the socialisation and economic dominance theories. …”

De novo transcriptome assembly and discovery of drought-responsive genes in white spruce ( Picea glauca ) by Ribeyre, Z, Depardieu, C, Prunier, J, Pelletier, G, Parent, GJ, Mackay, J, Droit, A, Bousquet, J, Nolet, P, Messier, C

“…Many transcripts that had predicted functions associated with photosynthesis, cell wall organization, and water transport were down-regulated under drought conditions, while transcripts linked to abscisic acid response and defense response were up-regulated. …”

Insertion of core CpG island element into human CMV promoter for enhancing recombinant protein expression stability in CHO cells by Mariati, Yeo, Jessna H. M., Koh, Esther Y. C., Ho, Steven C. L., Yang, Yuansheng

“…Low levels of CpG methylation within both WT hCMV and MR1 were observed in all the analyzed cell lines and the methylation levels did not correlate to the expression stability, suggesting IE enhances expression stability by other mechanisms other than preventing methylation.…”

Circulating current control scheme of modular multilevel converters supplying passive networks under unbalanced load conditions by Zhang, Huaitian, Wickramasinghe, Harith R., Jing, Long, Li, Jinke, Pou, Josep, Konstantinou, Georgios

“…Load imbalances in the supply of passive loads with modular multilevel converter (MMC)-based medium (MVDC) and high voltage (HVDC) dc-links are inevitable. In such applications, the maximum-allowable voltage ripples and peak arm currents define the operating limits of the MMCs. …”

Hydrophosphination as a valuable tool to chiral diphosphines and their derivatives by Teo, Ronald Hong Xiang

“…Next, the synthesis of C-chiral diphosphines from naturally occurring curcumin and derivatives was attempted and the cytotoxicity of the diphosphine metal complexes was evaluated and compared against cisplatin and curcumin in the MKN74 and MCF7 cancer cell-lines. Lastly, the challenges associated with the generation of chiral phosphine-phosphino-chalcogenide and their complexes were discussed in detail and an example of the catalytic property of the phosphine-phosphino-chalcogenide metal complexes was illustrated.…”

15th-century printed Italian editions of Aesopian texts by Malaspina, M

“…</p> <p>The <em>Conclusions</em> focus on the originality of certain texts created specifically for the press, on the people who played an important role in the composition and printing of Aesopian texts, on the identification of new lines of transmission in print, on the distinction and analysis of different iconographic lines of descent in the illustrated editions, and on the discovery of noteworthy cases of provenance evidence, which suggest how the consumption of Aesopian Italian incunables transversely engaged people at different social and cultural levels.…”

Wolbachia-mosquito interactions and engineered female-specific lethality for Aedes-arbovirus control by Molloy, JC
