Light incident upon materials can induce changes in their electrical conductivity, a phenomenon referred to as photoresistance. In semiconductors, the photoresistance is negative, as light-induced promotion of electrons across the bandgap enhances the number of charge carriers participating in transport. In superconductors and normal metals, the photoresistance is positive because of the destruction of the superconducting state and enhanced momentum-relaxing scattering, respectively.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to develop a new scoring system for assessing unstable spinal gunshot wounds, as existing classifications are insufficient for this type of injury.
  • It will analyze clinical and CT data from patients with thoracolumbar spinal injuries and use the Delphi method for expert collaboration to enhance the accuracy of this classification.
  • The research highlights the need for specialized approaches due to the unique nature of gunshot wounds, which differ from typical closed spinal injuries in terms of injury mechanism and treatment strategies.

Twist-controlled moiré superlattices (MSs) have emerged as a versatile platform for realizing artificial systems with complex electronic spectra. The combination of Bernal-stacked bilayer graphene (BLG) and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) can give rise to an interesting MS, which has recently featured a set of unexpected behaviors, such as unconventional ferroelectricity and the electronic ratchet effect. Yet, the understanding of the electronic properties of BLG/hBN MS has, at present, remained fairly limited.

The present systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to compare the safety and efficacy of the two approaches for primary spinal cord tumors (PSCTs) in adult patients (laminoplasty [LP] vs. laminectomy [LE]). LE is one of the most common procedures for PSCTs.
