An improved empirical large signal model for 0.1 µm AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) process is proposed in this paper. The short channel effect including the drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) effect and channel length modulation has been considered for the accurate description of DC characteristics. In-house AlGaN/GaN HEMTs with a gate-length of 0.1 μm and different dimensions have been employed to validate the accuracy of the large signal model. Good agreement has been achieved between the simulated and measured S parameters, I-V characteristics and large signal performance at 28 GHz. Furthermore, a monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) power amplifier from 92 GHz to 96 GHz has been designed for validation of the proposed model. Results show that the improved large signal model can be used up to W band.

We report a new NMR method for treating two-site chemical exchange involving half-integer quadrupolar nuclei in a solution. The new method was experimentally verified with extensive Na ( = 3/2), K ( = 3/2), and Rb ( = 3/2) NMR results from alkali metal ions (Na, K, and Rb) in a solution over a wide range of molecular tumbling conditions. In the fast-motion limit, all allowed single-quantum NMR transitions for a particular quadrupolar nucleus are degenerate giving rise to one Lorentzian signal.

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are the key drivers of tumorigenesis and relapse. A growing body of evidence reveals the tremendous power of CSCs to directly resist innate and adaptive anti-tumor immune responses. The immunomodulatory property gives CSCs the ability to control the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME).

Background: Postoperative complications of major surgical interventions include delirium. Delirium is a risk factor for dementia, and in some cases, may signal underlying neuropathological processes. Cognitive tests that accurately predict post-operative outcomes could identify patients with cognitive vulnerabilities who may benefit from preoperative counseling and postoperative interventions.

Doublecortin-like kinase 1 (DCLK1) has been revealed to be involved in modulating cancer stemness and tumor progression, but its role in prostate cancer (PCa) remains obscure. Castration-resistant and metastatic PCa exhibit aggressive behaviors, and current therapeutic approaches have shown limited beneficial effects on the overall survival rate of patients with advanced PCa. This study aimed to investigate the biological role and potential molecular mechanism of DCLK1 in the progression of PCa.

As a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, fibrosis is the common pathway of various chronic inflammatory diseases in organs and causes death in a large number of patients. It can destroy the structure and function of organs and ultimately lead to organ failure, which is a major cause of disability and death in many diseases. However, the regulatory mechanism of organ fibrosis is not well clear and the lack of effective drugs and treatments, which seriously endangers human health and safety.
