2D-Material-Assisted GaN Growth on GaN Template by MOCVD and Its Exfoliation Strategy.

The production of freestanding membranes using two-dimensional (2D) materials often involves techniques such as van der Waals (vdW) epitaxy, quasi-vdW epitaxy, and remote epitaxy. However, a challenge arises when attempting to manufacture freestanding GaN by using these 2D-material-assisted growth techniques. The issue lies in securing stability, as high-temperature growth conditions under metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) can cause damage to the 2D materials due to GaN decomposition of the substrate.

Stability of Graphene and Influence of AlN Surface Pits on GaN Remote Heteroepitaxy for Exfoliation.

Remote epitaxy is a promising technology that has recently attracted considerable attention, which enables the growth of thin films that copy the crystallographic characteristics of the substrate through two-dimensional material interlayers. The grown films can be exfoliated to form freestanding membranes, although it is often challenging to apply this technique if the substrate materials are prone to damage under harsh epitaxy conditions. For example, remote epitaxy of GaN thin films on graphene/GaN templates has not been achieved by a standard metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) method due to such damages.

Three-dimensional reconstruction of the luminal structure of human seminal vesicle.

The seminal vesicles are the glands of male reproductive organs that produce the fluid and nutrient constituents of semen. It has been believed for a long time that the lumen of a seminal vesicle was a single-coiled tubular structure with irregular diverticula. There are several previous reports on the symmetry, differences in morphological sizes and classification of the seminal vesicles.

Use of the orbito-occipital line as an alternative to the Frankfort line.

Frankfort horizontal line, the line passing through the orbitale and porion, is one of the most widely used intracranial landmarks in cephalometric analysis. This study investigated the use of the orbito-occipital line extending from the orbitale to the external occipital protuberance as a novel horizontal line of the skull for substituting the Frankfort horizontal line. We evaluated the reproducibility of the new landmark and measured the angle between the orbito-occipital line and the Frankfort line.

Location of the split line of the deep temporal fascia when reducing a zygomatic arch fracture.

Background: The deep temporal fascia (DTF) is known to separate into two layers that descend to attach to the zygomatic arch. When surgeons reduce an isolated fracture of the zygomatic arch through a temporal approach, the temporal incision site needs to be superior to the split line of the DTF.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-seven hemifacial cadavers were investigated after removing the skin, subcutaneous tissue, and superficial temporal fascia.

Flexible High-Efficiency CZTSSe Solar Cells on Diverse Flexible Substrates via an Adhesive-Bonding Transfer Method.

CuZnSn(S,Se) (CZTSSe) thin-film solar cells are showing great promise due to using earth-abundant and nontoxic materials and tuning the band gap through the amount of S and Se. Flexible high-efficiency CZTSSe solar cells are one of the outstanding research challenges because they currently require the use of thick glass substrates due to the high-temperature heat treatment process, and for this reason, few flexible CZTSSe solar cells have been reported. Furthermore, most researchers have used thin glass and metal substrates with little flexibility; the power conversion efficiency (PCE or η) values of the solar cells made with them have been slightly lower.

Topography of the Central Retinal Artery Relevant to Retrobulbar Reperfusion in Filler Complications.

Background: Vision loss caused by retrograde occlusion of the central retinal artery is a serious complication of cosmetic filler injections. Salvage methods that involve applying hyaluronidases in the retrobulbar space to degrade filler materials have been proposed recently for rescuing the retinal circulation in an ophthalmic emergency.

Methods: Sixty-six eyeballs and orbital contents were extracted from formalin-embalmed cadavers and dissected carefully to examine the topographic relationship of the central retinal artery and optic nerve.

Using the zygomatic arch as a reference line for clinical applications and anthropological studies.

Purpose: The Frankfurt line is the most frequently and widely used reference line in cephalometric analysis, but has shortcomings including the difficulty of landmark identification. This study investigated using the superior border of the zygomatic arch as a new external bony landmark, including measuring the angle between the new reference line and the Frankfurt line.

Methods: Facial computed tomography scans were obtained from 170 patients (100 males and 70 females) hospitalized at Konkuk University Chungju Hospital.
