Electrically driven SWCNT for high-efficiency infrared emission based on the electron-phonon scattering effect.

High-performance infrared light sources have significantly influenced the fields of photonics and optoelectronics. However, achieving infrared light emission with low energy consumption, high brightness, and rapid response remains a huge challenge. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) could be an important candidate for infrared light emitters because of their superior electron mobility and phonon transport efficiency.

Metformin-induced RBMS3 expression enhances ferroptosis and suppresses ovarian cancer progression.

Metformin (Met), a widely used type II diabetes medication, has shown anti-cancer properties in various cancers. RBMS3 is a tumor suppressor implicated in several cancers, including ovarian cancer. Ferroptosis, a novel form of programmed cell death, is gaining attention in cancer research.

Stretchable MWCNTs-OH/PDMS composite elastomer with hierarchical porous structure for wideband THz absorption.

It is important to develop a wideband THz absorber for the prevention of terahertz electromagnetic pollution and information leakage. Some commonly used methods, such as metamaterials or dynamic modulation technology, have played important roles in the study of wideband THz absorbers. However, most of these absorbers are rigid or non-stretchable, which limits the practical applications in large mechanical deformation and non-plane scenarios.

Terahertz absorption properties of different graphene layers based on the Salisbury effect.

Terahertz (THz) absorbers based on the Salisbury screen have attracted significant attention for high absorption performance and simple structure. Graphene is suitable for high-performance THz absorbers due to its extraordinary electronic and optical properties. The study of graphene THz absorbers based on Salisbury screens has attracted great interest, where the number of graphene layers significantly affects the interface impedance matching and absorption efficiency.

Design and Antimalarial Evaluation of Polydopamine-Modified Methyl Artelinate Nanoparticles.

Targeted nanodrug delivery systems are highly anticipated for the treatment of malaria. It is known that can induce new permeability pathways (NPPs) on the membrane of infected red blood cells (iRBCs) for their nutrient uptake. The NPPs also enable the uptake of nanoparticles (NPs) smaller than 80 nm.

Tumor suppressor function of RBMS3 overexpression in EOC associated with immune cell infiltration.

Objectives: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is considered to be a prevalent female malignancy with both high incidence and mortality. It is reported that RNA-binding protein 3 (RBMS3) executives a tumor suppressor function in different cancers. This investigation was designed to examine the expression of RBMS3 in epithelial ovarian cancer, the effects on EOC cells, and its connection to immune cells that infiltrate tumors in the EOC microenvironment.

Tunable terahertz absorption of ion gel-graphene hybrids based on the Salisbury effect.

The gate-tunable absorption properties of graphene make it suitable for terahertz (THz) absorbers. However, the realization of a graphene-based THz absorber faces challenges between the difficulty of patterning graphene for processing and the intrinsically low absorbance of graphene with the high electric field needed to change the conductivity of graphene. This report presents an electrically tunable graphene THz absorber where a single-layer graphene film and a gold reflective layer are separated by a polyimide (PI) dielectric layer to form an easily fabricated three-layer Salisbury screen structure.

Multilayer graphene-enabled structure based on Salisbury shielding effect for high-performance terahertz absorption.

Sandwich-type structure based on Salisbury screen effect is a simple and effective strategy to acquire high-performance terahertz (THz) absorption. The number of sandwich layer is the key factor that affects the absorption bandwidth and intensity of THz wave. Traditional metal/insulant/metal (M/I/M) absorber is difficult to construct multilayer structure because of low light transmittance of the surface metal film.

Modulation of graphene THz absorption based on HAuCl doping method.

Graphene is an attractive material for terahertz (THz) absorbers because of its tunable Fermi-Level (E). It has become a research hotspot to modulate the E of graphene and THz absorption of graphene. Here, a sandwich-structured single layer graphene (SLG)/ Polyimide (PI)/Au THz absorber was proposed, and top-layer graphene was doped by HAuCl solutions.
