Valley-optical absorption in planar transition metal dichalcogenide superlattices by Hashemi, R., Shojaei, S., Rezaei, B., Liu, Zheng

“…By calculating the effective mass for different bands and using the Drude-Lorentz model, our approach is able to determine the oscillator strength and the effective refractive index of the structure. We found that the spin-orbit coupling has important effect on the absorption coefficient and energy bands where it reduces the absorption coefficient of the structure from typical value of [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text], also the valence band experiences a significant blue shift, while the conduction band shows minor changes due to spin orbit coupling. …”

Living with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva: radiological images of a patient with extensive heterotopic ossification by Mohammed Mostafa Kotb, Omar, Usama Farghaly, Kaliya-Perumal, Arun-Kumar

“…Radiographic evaluation with X-rays and CT scans revealed scoliosis and total fusion of almost all levels of the spine, with only a few disc spaces spared. A large mass of heterotopic bone was observed, corresponding to the location of the paraspinal muscles in the lumbar region, branching upwards and fusing with the scapulae on both sides. …”

Optical study of excitonic complexes in transition metal dichalcogenides monolayers by Bao, Di

“…Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) monolayers such as MX2 (M = Mo, W; X = S, Se) feature strong exciton properties and spin-valley physics. As a result of strong quantum- and dielectric confinement in single atomic layer of TMD materials, the photoexcited electrons and holes are tightly bound via Coulomb interaction to form excitonic complexes such as charged excitons (trions), biexcitons that offer great opportunities to study many-body physics. …”
