Magnetophotoluminescence of Modulation-Doped CdTe Multiple Quantum Wells.

Modulation-doped CdTe quantum wells (QWs) with CdMgTe barriers were studied by photoluminescence (PL) and far-infrared Fourier spectroscopy under a magnetic field at 4.2 K and by Raman spectroscopy at room temperature. Two samples were tested: a sample which contained ten QWs (MQW) and a sample with one QW (SQW).

Active Case Finding Among Homeless People as a Means of Reducing the Incidence of Pulmonary Tuberculosis in General Population.

The incidence of tuberculosis (TB) declined more than two-fold, compared with the national average, in the northeastern region of Poland in the period of 2003-2012. During that time, four programs of active case finding of TB were conducted as part of which a total of 944 homeless individuals were examined and 21 cases of active TB were detected. The objective of the present study was to find out whether the observed beneficial epidemiological trend could be a result of those programs.
