The observation of a stimulated emission at interband transitions in monocrystalline n-InN layers under optical pumping is reported. The spectral position of the stimulated emission changes over a range of 1.64 to 1.9 μm with variations of free electron concentration in InN layers from 2·10 cm to 3·10 cm. The main necessary conditions for achieving the stimulated emission from epitaxial InN layers are defined. In the best quality samples, a threshold excitation power density is obtained to be as low as 400 W/cm at T = 8 K and the stimulated emission is observed up to 215 K. In this way, the feasibility of InN-based lasers as well as the potentials of crystalline indium nitride as a promising photonic material are demonstrated.

Background: Women's elevated risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) compared to men remains unclear, with gonadal hormones proposed as potential contributors. This study aimed to explore the association between follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), estradiol (E2), neuropsychological AD stages, and cerebral Aβ deposition.

Methods: A total of 679 subjects were included in the study (N = 198 for cognitively normal (CN), N = 373 for mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and N = 108 for AD dementia groups).

Background: Anxiety is prevalent among cognitively unimpaired older adults and is associated with accelerated amyloid-β-related cognitive decline and incident cognitive impairment. Investigating these mechanisms is challenging due to low pathologic burden, high individual variability, and subsyndromal level of symptoms. Recently, brain networks involved in AD were successfully localized by mapping the brain connectivity of atrophy patterns associated with memory impairment and delusions.

This study investigates the relation and Granger causality among inflation, fiscal expenditure, energy consumption, economic growth, energy efficiency, renewable energy consumption, and environmental pollution in the G7 countries utilizing the PLSTRVAR model for 1975-2022. Our findings highlight the results that inflation and fiscal expenditure have impact on environmental pollution across different regimes. On the other hand, unlike some studies in the literature, it emphasizes that renewable energy consumption may have pollution-increasing effects on environmental pollution.

We present state-to-state differential cross sections for rotationally inelastic collisions of vibrationally excited NO XΠ ( = 9) with Ar using a near-counterpropagating molecular beam geometry. These were obtained using the stimulated emission pumping technique coupled with velocity map imaging. Collision energies well over ∼1 eV were achieved and rotational excitations up to ∼Δ = 60 recorded for the first time for inelastic collisions.

Adopting low-carbon technology has become a critical method for enterprises to reduce carbon emissions and combat global warming. However, the willingness of high-energy-consuming and high-emission enterprises, such as those in the chemical industry, to adopt this technology is not high. Therefore, how to effectively stimulate these enterprises to develop and apply low-carbon technology has become an urgent challenge.
