Enhanced Carrier Dynamics and Excitation of Optically Stimulated Artificial Synapse Using van der Waals Passivation Layers.

Advances in the semiconductor industry have been limited owing to the constraints imposed by silicon-based CMOS technology; hence, innovative device design approaches are necessary. This study focuses on "more than Moore" approaches, specifically in neuromorphic computing. Although MoS devices have attracted attention as neuromorphic computing candidates, their performances have been limited due to environment-induced perturbations to carrier dynamics and the formation of defect states.

Pharmacokinetic analysis using single dilution assays: enhancing precision, reducing errors and increasing throughput.

Background: Technologies such as ELISA, MSD, and Gyrolab have been employed for quantifying protein therapeutics in clinical trials. However, these technologies have limitations with dynamic range often requiring multiple dilution steps, introducing potential errors and variability.

Results/methodology: A pharmacokinetics assay was successfully developed on the NUcleic acid Linked Immuno-Sandwich Assay (NULISA) platform with a concentration dynamic range exceeding 6 logs.

Surgical management of ovarian fibromas in young patients with Gorlin syndrome: a case series and review of the literature.

Objective: To characterize the presentation and surgical management of ovarian fibromas among a case series of pediatric and adolescent patients with Gorlin syndrome.

Design: Retrospective case series.

Setting: Tertiary-care hospital.

Speech-mediated manipulation of da Vinci surgical system for continuous surgical flow.

Unlabelled: With the advent of robot-assisted surgery, user-friendly technologies have been applied to the da Vinci surgical system (dVSS), and their efficacy has been validated in worldwide surgical fields. However, further improvements are required to the traditional manipulation methods, which cannot control an endoscope and surgical instruments simultaneously. This study proposes a speech recognition control interface (SRCI) for controlling the endoscope via speech commands while manipulating surgical instruments to replace the traditional method.

Controlled Structural Activation of Iridium Single Atom Catalyst for High-Performance Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis.

Iridium single atom catalysts are promising oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts for proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE), as they can reduce the reliance on costly Ir in the OER catalysts. However, their practical application is hindered by their limited stability during PEMWE operation. Herein, we report on the activation of Ir-doped CoMnO in acidic electrolyte that leads to enhanced activity and stability in acidic OER for long-term PEMWE operation.
