A randomised, controlled, observer-masked trial of corneal cross-linking for progressive keratoconus in children: the KERALINK protocol

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2019
Introduction The KERALINK trial tests the hypothesis that corneal cross-linking (CXL) treatment reduces the progression of keratoconus in comparison to standard care in patients under 17 years old.

Transducer Materials Mediated Deep Brain Stimulation in Neurological Disorders

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses advanced transducer materials for improving deep brain stimulation (DBS) in neurological disorders. These materials respond to light, ultrasound, or magnetic fields, enabling precise, less invasive neuromodulation. Their stimulus‐responsive properties enhance neural control and adaptive therapy, paving the way for next‐generation ...

Formation of 2D Electron Gas at a Non‐Polar Perovskite Oxide Interface: SrHfO3/BaSnO3

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Through experiments and Poisson‐Schrödinger simulations, 2D electron gas formed at the non‐polar SrHfO3/BaSnO3 interface is observed. A large conduction band offset enables modulation doping by the intrinsic deep donors in SrHfO3, resulting in carrier confinement in BaSnO3 without relying on interfacial polarization or termination‐layer engineering ...
