High performance germanium on silicon photodiodes for back-end-of-line photonic integration by Marzen, S, Postelnicu, E, Michel, J, Wada, K, Kimerling, LC

“…We have fabricated high performance, vertical incidence Ge-on-Si photodiodes under thermal budget constraints with as-grown diodes achieving an internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of 38% and a dark current density of Jd = 272 μA/cm2 at a reverse bias of Vr = 5 V and a wavelength of λ = 1310 nm. The photodiode design incorporates a remote heterointerface, demonstrating that Ge material quality is sufficiently high for minority carriers to diffuse to the Ge/Si interface. …”

Heterogeneity within colorectal cancer cell lines and epigenetic regulation of CD24 by Ibn Ayub, M

“…Interestingly, when maintained for a long time in culture (around passage 50, which is equivalent to &amp;Tilde;7 months), CD24 expression went through a gradual change in these clones, which became more evident from subclones of LS174T_Clone 2^CD24- (Chapter 6) and clones from another CRC cell line SW480 (chapter 5 and 6). To understand the mechanism of this dynamic change in the expression of CD24, it was first shown that no mutation could be responsible for this phenomenon. …”

Ultra-wideband transmission line bandpass filters with sharpened roll-off skirts by Quek, Alwyn Chiao Liang

“…The design consists of a ring resonator in the middle connected by interdigital coupled lines fed from both sides of the network. This ring resonator is studied to relocate its first four resonant modes within the 3.1 to 10.6 GHz passband, whereas placing the fifth resonant mode at the coupling transmission zero of the interdigital coupled lines that drive this MMR at both sides of the network. …”
