Ultrafast Floquet engineering of Fermi-polaron resonances in charge-tunable monolayer WSe devices.

Fermi polarons are emerging quasiparticles when a bosonic impurity immersed in a fermionic bath. Depending on the boson-fermion interaction strength, the Fermi-polaron resonances exhibit either attractive or repulsive interactions, which impose further experimental challenges on understanding the subtle light-driven dynamics. Here, we report the light-driven dynamics of attractive and repulsive Fermi polarons in monolayer WSe devices.

PIEZO acts in an intestinal valve to regulate swallowing in C. elegans.

Sensations of the internal state of the body play crucial roles in regulating the physiological processes and maintaining homeostasis of an organism. However, our understanding of how internal signals are sensed, processed, and integrated to generate appropriate biological responses remains limited. Here, we show that the C.

A FMRFamide-like neuropeptide FLP-12 signaling regulates head locomotive behaviors in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Neuropeptides play a critical role in regulating behaviors across organisms, but the precise mechanisms by which neuropeptides orchestrate complex behavioral programs are not fully understood. Here, we show that the FMRFamide-like neuropeptide FLP-12 signaling from the SMB head motor neurons modulates head locomotive behaviors, including stomatal oscillation in Caenorhabditis elegans. lim-4 mutants, in which the SMB neurons are not properly specified, exhibited various head and body locomotive defects, including stomatal oscillation.

A Review on Gas Indicators and Sensors for Smart Food Packaging.

Real-time monitoring of changes in packaged food is crucial to ensure safety and alleviate environmental issues. Accordingly, the development of indicators and sensors for smart packaging has long been anticipated, especially for gases related to food deterioration and microbial growth. However, the characteristics of indicators and sensors used in food packaging cannot be adjusted according to the specific food type, making it essential to select and apply suitable indicators and sensors for each type of food.
