Quantized Microcavity Polariton Lasing Based on InGaN Localized Excitons.

Exciton-polaritons, which are bosonic quasiparticles with an extremely low mass, play a key role in understanding macroscopic quantum effects related to Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in solid-state systems. The study of trapped polaritons in a potential well provides an ideal platform for manipulating polariton condensates, enabling polariton lasing with specific formation in k-space. Here, we realize quantized microcavity polariton lasing in simple harmonic oscillator (SHO) states based on spatial localized excitons in InGaN/GaN quantum wells (QWs).

The Intermode Polariton Parametric Scattering Laser in a Strong Coupled Microcavity Via Two-Photon Absorption.

Exciton-polaritons, hybrid quasiparticles from the strong coupling of excitons and cavity photons in semiconductor microcavities, offer a platform for exploring quantum coherence and nonlinear optical properties. The unique polariton parametric scattering (PPS) laser is of interest for its potential in quantum technologies and nonlinear devices. However, direct resonant excitation of polaritons in strong-coupling microcavities is challenging.

Modeling of the neural mechanism underlying the terrestrial turning of the salamander.

In order to explore the neural mechanism underlying salamander terrestrial turning, an improved biomechanical model is proposed by modifying the forelimb structure of the existing biomechanical model. Based on the proposed improved biomechanical model, a new spinal locomotor network model is constructed which contains the interneuron networks and motoneuron pool. Control methods are also developed for the new model which increase its transient response speed, control the initial swing order of the forelimbs, and generate different walking turning gait and turning on the spot (turning without moving forward).

A new model of the spinal locomotor networks of a salamander and its properties.

A salamander is an ideal animal for studying the spinal locomotor network mechanism of vertebrates from an evolutionary perspective since it represents the transition from an aquatic to a terrestrial animal. However, little is known about the spinal locomotor network of a salamander. A spinal locomotor network model is a useful tool for exploring the working mechanism of the spinal networks of salamanders.

MoS nanosheets encapsulated in sodium alginate microcapsules as microwave embolization agents for large orthotopic transplantation tumor therapy.

In recent years, it is prevalent to treat various kinds of the tumors through microwave ablation method. However, it is still very difficult to ablate large tumors by the traditional microwave ablation therapy. In this work, an effective microwave embolization agent designed by encapsulating molybdenum sulfide nanosheets in the sodium alginate microcapsules, denoted as MSMCs, was prepared for the effective therapy of large tumor.

Ball-in-ball ZrO nanostructure for simultaneous CT imaging and highly efficient synergic microwave ablation and tri-stimuli-responsive chemotherapy of tumors.

Combined thermo-chemotherapy displays outstanding synergically therapeutic efficiency when compared with standalone thermotherapy and chemotherapy. Herein, we developed a smart tri-stimuli-responsive drug delivery system involving X@BB-ZrO NPs (X represents loaded IL, DOX, keratin and tetradecanol) based on novel ball-in-ball-structured ZrO nanoparticles (BB-ZrO NPs). The microwave energy conversion efficiency of BB-ZrO NPs was 41.

Imaging-guided synergetic therapy of orthotopic transplantation tumor by superselectively arterial administration of microwave-induced microcapsules.

It is an ambitious target to improve overall Hepatocellular Carcinoma therapeutic effects. Recently, MW ablation has emerged as a powerful thermal ablation technique, affording favorable survival with excellent local tumor control. To achieve better therapeutic effects of MW ablation, MW sensitizers are prepared for enhanced MW ablation to preferentially heat tumor territory.

Layered MoS nanoflowers for microwave thermal therapy.

Microwave (MW) hyperthermia has received great attention as an emerging green tumor thermotherapy. In this work, layered MoS nanoflowers were prepared through a simple bottom-up hydrothermal process. By coating MoS nanoflowers with bovine serum albumin (BSA-MoS), BSA-MoS exhibits low biotoxicity and excellent microwave susceptive properties in vitro.

Rosuvastatin Alleviates Type 2 Diabetic Atrial Structural and Calcium Channel Remodeling.

Recent evidence has indicated that type 2 diabetes mellitus is related to an increased risk of atrial arrhythmias, which might result from atrial structural and electrical remodeling. Inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (statins), known as lipid-lowering agents, have been shown to exert antiarrhythmic effects both in experimental models and in humans. In this study, we postulate that atrial structural and calcium channel remodeling may occur in streptozotocin-induced type 2 diabetic rats and can be alleviated by rosuvastatin (RSV) therapy.
