Structural or crystal asymmetry is a necessary condition for the emergence of zero-bias photocurrent in light detectors. Structural asymmetry has been typically achieved via p-n doping, which is a technologically complex process. Here, we propose an alternative approach to achieve zero-bias photocurrent in two-dimensional (2D) material flakes exploiting the geometrical nonequivalence of source and drain contacts.

Despite the photoconductivity of most novel 2d materials having been studied both theoretically and experimentally, the same is not true for 2d p-n junctions that are necessary blocks of most electronic devices. Here, we study the sub-terahertz photocoductivity of gapped bilayer graphene with electrically induced p-n junctions.

Material And Methods: During 2020-2021 8 patients aged 40 to 70 years with secondary postoperative lymphedema of the maxillofacial region were treated in the Central Research Institute of Dentistry and Maxillofacial Surgery. The article presents the clinical and ultrasound results of a study of the effectiveness of the lymphotropic therapy in the treatment of patients with secondary lymphedema of the maxillofacial region.
Background: Inflammatory complications are the most prevalent problems after surgical extraction of mandibular third molars. The main options for prevention are prophylactic antibiotics usage before surgery or in the postoperative period; a method of postoperative management of a tooth socket, implying healing by primary or secondary closure. Each of the postoperative management types has advantages and disadvantages.

The small size, high maneuverability, ability to fly at predetermined coordinates, simple construction, and affordable price have made UAVs a popular choice for diverse aerial applications. However, the small size and the ability to fly close to the terrain make the detection and tracking of UAVs challenging.
