We demonstrate a novel mesh of Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZIs) for programmable optical processors. We thoroughly analyze the benefits and drawbacks of previously known meshes and compare our newly proposed mesh with these prior architectures, highlighting its unique features and advantages. The proposed mesh, referred to as Bokun mesh, is an architecture that merges the attributes of the prior topologies Diamond and Clements.

- * Sixty molars were polished, bonded with universal adhesives, restored with composite resin, and tested for bond strength, with statistical analysis revealing significant differences in adhesive performance.
- * G-Premio Bond and Single Bond demonstrated higher bond strength compared to Clearfil S3 Bond, with adhesive failures being the most common type of failure observed in all groups under microscopic examination.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in terms of prevalence and mortality, and chemotherapy is one of the most effective treatments at higher stages. However, resistance to chemotherapy is the main obstacle in the treatment of this cancer. Accumulated evidence identified the PD-L1 protein as an essential protein in the development of different cancers.

In this study, a unique combination of alkali treatment and bioactive glass sol dip coating was applied to the Ti substrate, then the mechanical properties and cell responses were investigated.
Methods: Based on the methods introduced above, the Ti substrate was treated by 6 mL of an NaOH 5 M aqueous solution for 24 h at 60 ̊C; this was followed by adding 1.
Article Synopsis
- - This study evaluates the mechanical and biological properties of bioactive glass (BG) coatings applied to titanium (Ti) to enhance its bioactivity.
- - The BG 58S coating was successfully created using a sol-dip method, showing strong adhesion to the treated Ti substrate with a bonding strength of 41.03±2.31 MPa.
- - The results indicated that the BG coating significantly improved cell viability and alkaline phosphatase activity, suggesting that the sol-dip method can effectively produce a bioactive Ti surface.
