Voltage jump studies of planar bilayers doped with colicin A revealed two classes of time and voltage dependent conductance induced by colicin A. The first type of conductance, asymmetrically voltage dependent, measured as a time dependent process, was in agreement with previously described conductances of bilayers doped with colicin A or colicin E1. The second class of conductance appeared as a voltage dependent instantaneous conductance. The significance of this new type of conductance is discussed.

Superlattices from twisted graphene mono- and bilayer systems give rise to on-demand many-body states such as Mott insulators and unconventional superconductors. These phenomena are ascribed to a combination of flat bands and strong Coulomb interactions. However, a comprehensive understanding is lacking because the low-energy band structure strongly changes when an electric field is applied to vary the electron filling.

Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (TBLG) has emerged as a versatile platform to explore correlated electron phases driven primarily by low-energy flat bands in moiré superlattices. While techniques for controlling the twist angle between graphene layers have spurred rapid experimental progress, understanding the effects of doping inhomogeneity on electronic transport in correlated electron systems remains challenging. In this work, we investigate the interplay of confinement and doping inhomogeneity on the electrical transport properties of TBLG by leveraging device dimensions and twist angles.

Article Synopsis
  • Bile salts act as biosurfactants in the gastrointestinal tract, helping to emulsify and absorb fat-soluble nutrients and drugs.
  • The study utilized giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) to investigate the permeation behavior of bile salts and their mixed micelles, using sodium cholate (NaC) and various lipophilic substances.
  • Findings showed that below the critical micelle concentration (CMC), NaC causes endocytic changes in GUVs, while above the CMC, mixed micelles interact with the membrane differently, forming aggregates that migrate into the GUV, with variations observed depending on the type of lipophilic component used.
