A Metal-Assisted Silicon Slot Waveguide for Highly Sensitive Gas Detection
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2017 A metal-assisted silicon slot waveguide for highly sensitive gas detection is proposed. To show the superiority of the proposed structure, the optical confinement factor in the gas region and the sensitivity are theoretically investigated using the 2-D ...

A growth factor signaling cascade confined to circular ruffles in macrophages [PDF]
Biology Open, 2012 Summary The formation of macropinosomes requires large-scale movements of membranes and the actin cytoskeleton. Over several minutes, actin-rich surface ruffles transform into 1–5 µm diameter circular ruffles, which close at their distal margins, creating endocytic vesicles.

CCCTC-Binding Factor Confines the Distal Action of Estrogen Receptor [PDF]
Cancer Research, 2008 Abstract Distal enhancers have recently emerged as a common mode of gene regulation for several transcription factors, including estrogen and androgen receptors, the two key regulators of breast and prostate cancer major subtypes. Despite the rapid success in genome-wide annotation of estrogen receptor-α (ERα) binding sites in cell ...

Factors Governing Helix Formation in Peptides Confined to Carbon Nanotubes [PDF]
Nano Letters, 2008 The effect of confinement on the stability and dynamics of peptides and proteins is relevant in the context of a number of problems in biology and biotechnology. We have examined the stability of different helix-forming sequences upon confinement to a carbon nanotube using Langevin dynamics simulations of a coarse-grained representation of the ...

Investigation of photonic crystal surface-emitting laser in blue band based on porous-GaN cladding [PDF]
Nanotechnology and Precision EngineeringInvestigated theoretically is a photonic-crystal surface-emitting GaN laser based on surface-etched holes with a porous-GaN cladding layer. The porous GaN has a low refractive index, supporting effective confinement to the resonant mode, and the porous ...

Form factors of baryons in a confining and covariant diquark-quark model [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2000 We treat baryons as bound states of scalar or axialvector diquarks and a constituent quark which interact through quark exchange. This description results as an approximation to the relativistic Faddeev equation for three quarks which yields an effective Bethe-Salpeter equation.

The design of local ductility for reinforced concrete elements by Eurocode 8: Confinement effectiveness factor [PDF]
Građevinski Materijali i Konstrukcije, 2019 This paper is focused on the effects of confinement of the reinforcement reinforced concrete sections, i.e. in the way that the transverse reinforcement affects the improvement of the characteristics of both the material and the affected zone of the ...
