Engineering of Interface Barrier in Hybrid MXene/GaN Heterostructures for Schottky Diode Applications.

The Fermi level position at the interface of a heterostructure is a critical factor for device functionality, strongly influenced by surface-related phenomena. In this study, contactless electroreflectance (CER) was utilized for the first time to investigate the built-in electric field in MXene/GaN structures with the goal of understanding the carrier transfer across the MXene/GaN interface. Five MXenes with high work functions were examined: CrC, MoC, VC, VC, and TiC.

Signet-Ring Cell/Histiocytoid Carcinoma: Report of Two Cases and Systematic Review of the Literature on the Epidemiology, Clinical Characteristics, and Pathological and Molecular Findings.

Signet-ring cell/histiocytoid carcinoma (SRCHC) is a rare appendageal tumor, mainly considering eyelids, more rarely axillae. This article describes 2 novel SRCHC cases of 71- and 66-year-old men and systematically reviews the literature on SRCHC. Of all cases reported in the literature, 73 (91.

Investigating the local structure of Ti based MXene materials by temperature dependent X-ray absorption spectroscopy.

The local structures of Ti based MXene-type electrode materials have been studied by Ti K-edge X-ray absorption fine structure measurements as a function of temperature to obtain direct information on the local bond lengths and their stiffness. In particular, the parent MAX phases TiAlC and TiAlC and their etched MXene systems are characterized and their properties compared. We find that selective etching has a substantial effect on the local structural properties of the Ti based MXene materials.

Pathway-level mutation analysis in primary high-grade serous ovarian cancer and matched brain metastases.

Brain metastases (BMs) in ovarian cancer (OC) are a rare event. BMs occur most frequently in high-grade serous (HGS) OC. The molecular features of BMs in HGSOC are poorly understood.

Use of fluorescence imaging during lymphatic surgery: A Delphi survey of experts worldwide.

Background: Fluorescence imaging with indocyanine green is increasingly used during lymphedema patient management. However, to date, no guidelines exist on when it should and should not be used or how it should be performed. Our objective was to have an international panel of experts identify areas of consensus and nonconsensus in current attitudes and practices in fluorescence imaging with indocyanine green use during lymphedema surgery patient management.
