This work reports a high-performance InGaN-based red-emitting LED with a strain-release interlayer (SRI) consisting of an InGaN stress-release layer (SRL) and an AlN dislocation confinement layer (DCL) in unintentionally doped GaN (u-GaN). The SRL introduces a tensile strain which could decrease the in-plane compressive stress of the u-GaN layer, while the DCL could reduce the dislocation density and thus improve the crystal quality of the u-GaN layer. Consequently, a high-efficiency InGaN-based red-emitting LED with a peak wavelength of 651 nm and an external quantum efficiency of 6.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFTachycardia-bradycardia syndrome (TBS) is a variant of sick sinus syndrome (SSS) characterized by alternating tachycardia and bradycardia. A few cases of SSS secondary to structural lesions in the medulla have been reported, but there has never been a reported case of the rare sign akin to TBS following acute non-medullary brainstem infarction. Furthermore, new-onset cardiac arrhythmias in stroke often presented in one continuous pattern - either as bradycardia or tachycardia, but instances of an alternating fashion have been rarely reported.
