An Omnidirectional Polarization Detector Based on a Metamaterial Absorber

open access: yesSensors, 2016
The theory, design, simulation, fabrication, and performance of an omnidirectional polarization detector (PD) with two resonances located in the X and Ka ranges based on a metamaterial absorber (MMA) are presented in this paper. The sandwich structure of

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Hyperosmotic stress‐induced redistribution of pre‐mRNA cleavage factor I subunits is associated with shifts in alternative polyadenylation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Hyperosmotic stress triggers the relocation of the CFIm complex from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. This shift creates a nuclear ‘stoichiometric bottleneck’, limiting CFIm availability for mRNA processing. Consequently, specific mRNAs like NUDT21 and DICER1 undergo targeted 3′UTR shortening, demonstrating how spatial protein dynamics drive rapid ...

Mode-locked fiber laser using an SU8/SWCNT saturable absorber [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We report the fabrication of a saturable absorber based on SU8 single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) composite material. Thin films with a controllable thickness can be fabricated using a simple and reliable process. These films can be inserted between two

Passively Q-switched Nd:YAG laser with a MoS2 solution saturable absorber

open access: yes, 2015
This study presents a passively Q-switched Nd:YAG laser using a MoS2 solution as a saturable absorber. The prepared MoS2 solution saturable absorber features adjustable optical absorption, high heat dissipation, and non-contact damage.

Reducing Railway Track Vibrations by Applying Particle-Damping Systems

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The wheel–rail contact is an intrinsic characteristic of rail transport. This contact is one of the main reasons why rails are so efficient for transportation, mainly due to the very low friction coefficient between them and the wheels.

Effect of terahertz irradiation on DNA damage repair in living cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated the effect of terahertz (THz) wave irradiation on DNA double‐strand break (DSB) repair in living cells. We found that THz irradiation enhanced DSB repair at specific frequencies, whereas heat treatment inhibited it, indicating that this effect is nonthermal and frequency‐specific.

Study on a Novel Absorption Referigeration System at Low Cooling Temperatures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A novel absorption refrigeration system is proposed in this context using R134a+R23 mixed refrigerants and DMF solvent. The new system uses two-staged absorber in series to reduce the evaporation pressure and can obtain a lower refrigeration temperature ...
