Published: February 2008

We grow epitaxial graphene monolayers on Ru(0001) that cover uniformly the substrate over lateral distances larger than several microns. The weakly coupled graphene monolayer is periodically rippled and it shows charge inhomogeneities in the charge distribution. Real space measurements by scanning tunneling spectroscopy reveal the existence of electron pockets at the higher parts of the ripples, as predicted by a simple theoretical model. We also visualize the geometric and electronic structure of edges of graphene nanoislands.

Neurons in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus discharge synchronously in brain state-dependent manner to transfer information. Published studies have highlighted the temporal coordination of neuronal activities between the hippocampus and a neocortical area, however, how the spatial extent of neocortical activity relates to hippocampal activity remains partially unknown. We imaged mesoscopic neocortical activity while recording hippocampal local field potentials in anesthetized and unanesthetized GCaMP-expressing transgenic mice.

Objective: To observe and measure the morphological and temporal evolutionary features of the hypersynchronous (HYP) pattern in the mesial temporal seizure.

Methods: The HYP patterns during preictal and interictal states of 16 mesial temporal epileptic patients were analyzed. The wave components of the HYP transients were firstly observed and measured.

Objectives: In the present study with a large cohort, we aimed to characterize intracerebral seizure onset patterns (SOP) of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE), with or without hippocampal sclerosis (HS) as identified via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 255 seizures of 76 consecutive patients with mTLE explored by stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG), including HS-mTLE (n = 52) and non-HS- mTLE (n = 24). Relevant results were obtained by a combination of spectral analysis and manual review.

Medication refractory focal epilepsy creates a significant challenge, with approximately 30% of patients ineligible for surgery due to the involvement of eloquent cortex in the epileptogenic network. For such patients with limited surgical options, electrical neuromodulation represents a promising alternative therapy. In this study, we investigate the potential of non-invasive temporal interference (TI) electrical stimulation to reduce epileptic biomarkers in patients with epilepsy by comparing intracerebral recordings obtained before, during, and after TI stimulation, to recordings during low and high kHz frequency (HF) sham stimulation.

Article Synopsis
  • The paper explores the use of Model-Free Predictive Control (MFPC) in power electronic systems, focusing on an improved adaptive integral sliding mode observer (AISMO) to better estimate unknown factors in an ultra-local model (ULM).
  • The proposed AISMO-MFPC aims to enhance control accuracy by estimating system parameters based on current errors, leading to independent control of the system.
  • To achieve lower current ripple, the method incorporates active vector execution time (AVET), allowing for multiple vector selections during a sampling period, which results in faster system responses and reduced harmonics.
