Remarkable SERS Activity Observed from Amorphous ZnO Nanocages by Wang, Xiaotian, Shi, Wenxiong, Huang, Weifeng, Lin, Jie, Ma, Guanshui, Li, Shuzhou, Guo, Lin, Jin, Zhao

“…The efficient ICTP can even generate π bonding in Zn−S bonds peculiar to the mercapto molecule adsorbed a‐ZnO NCs, which has been verified through the X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) characterization. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time such remarkable SERS activity has been observed within amorphous semiconductor nanomaterials, which could open a new frontier for developing highly sensitive and stable SERS technology.…”

Investigating circular dorsal ruffles through varying substrate stiffness and mathematical modeling by LeDuc, Philip R., Zeng, Yukai, Lai, Tanny, Koh, Cheng Gee, Chiam, Keng-Hwee

“…It has been observed that CDR formation leads to stress fibers disappearing near the CDRs. Since stress fiber formation can be modified by substrate stiffness, we examined the effect of substrate stiffness on CDR formation by seeding NIH 3T3 fibroblasts on glass and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrates of varying stiffnesses from 20 kPa to 1800 kPa. …”

Ultralow-threshold two-photon pumped amplified spontaneous emission and lasing from seeded CdSe/CdS nanorod heterostructures by Xing, Guichuan, Liao, Yile, Wu, Xiangyang, Chakrabortty, Sabyasachi, Liu, Xinfeng, Yeow, Edwin Kok Lee, Sum, Tze Chien, Chan, Yinthai

“…Importantly, by exploiting this unique property of the seeded nanorods exhibiting strong quantum confinement even at relatively large rod sizes, a near reciprocal relation between the 2ASE threshold and the 2PA action cross-section (σ2η) (where η is the quantum yield) was found and validated over a wide volume range for II-VI semiconductor nanostructures. …”

Modelling cross-docking in a three-level supply chain with stochastic service and queuing system: MOWFA algorithm by Rostami, Parinaz, Avakh Darestani, Soroush, Movassaghi, Mitra

“…Therefore, three metaheuristics, including multi‐objective water flow, non‐dominated sorting genetic, and a multi‐objective simulated annealing algorithm have been used to find near‐optimal solutions to the problem. After adjusting the parameters of the algorithms using the Taguchi method, the results obtained from the algorithms were analyzed with a statistical test and the performance of the algorithms was evaluated. …”
