Quasi-One-Dimensional Fibrous Phosphorus: An Air-Stable Low-Symmetry Semiconductor with High Anisotropy.

Due to their novel optical and optoelectronic properties, 2D materials have received increasing interest for optoelectronics applications. However, when the width of the channel layer decreases to the nanoscale, the properties of 2D materials can be seriously influenced due to the boundary defects and the approximation of physical dimensions and mean free path of the electron. That brings many challenges to developing novel electronics.

Compact VHF/UHF Ultrawideband Discone Antenna with Consistent Pattern.

A compact VHF/UHF ultrawideband discone antenna with consistent patterns is proposed in this article. The proposed antenna consists of a disk, a modified cone, an inverted cone, four shorting probes, and two sleeves. To improve the radiation angular distortion at high frequencies, two sleeves are inserted into the discone antenna.

BP-diff: a conditional diffusion model for cuffless continuous BP waveform estimation using U-Net.

Continuous monitoring of blood pressure (BP) is crucial for daily healthcare. Although invasive methods provide accurate continuous BP measurements, they are not suitable for routine use. Photoplethysmography (PPG), a non-invasive technique that detects changes in blood volume within the microcirculation using light, shows promise for BP measurement.

Photoplethysmography-based cuffless blood pressure estimation: an image encoding and fusion approach.

Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a promising wearable technology that detects volumetric changes in microcirculation using a light source and a sensor on the skin's surface. PPG has been shown to be useful for non-invasive blood pressure (BP) measurement. Deep learning-based BP measurements are now gaining popularity.
