Allergic Contact Dermatitis Induced by Modern Wound Dressings: A Comprehensive Analysis of Risks and Allergenic Components. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Modern wound dressings have revolutionised wound care, offering optimal healing environments. However, their widespread use has led to a significant increase in allergic reactions, particularly among patients with chronic leg ulcers. The complex chemical compositions of these dressings can trigger allergic responses.

In-situ bandaged Josephson junctions for superconducting quantum processors [PDF]
Shadow evaporation is commonly used to micro-fabricate the key element of superconducting qubits - the Josephson junction. However, in conventional two-angle deposition circuit topology, unwanted stray Josephson junctions are created which contribute to dielectric loss.

Aluminum air bridges for superconducting quantum devices realized using a single step electron-beam lithography process [PDF]
In superconducting quantum devices, air bridges enable increased circuit complexity and density as well as mitigate the risk of microwave loss arising from mode mixing. We implement aluminum air bridges using a simple process based on single-step electron-beam gradient exposure.
