In Situ Study of Resistive Switching in a Nitride‐Based Memristive Device

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In situ TEM biasing experiment demonstrates the volatile I‐V characteristic of MIM lamella device. In situ STEM‐EELS Ti L2/L3 ratio maps provide direct evidence of the oxygen vacancies migrations under positive/negative electrical bias, which is critical for revealing the RS mechanism for the MIM lamella device.

An All‐Optical Driven Bio‐Photovoltaic Interface for Active Control of Live Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐photovoltaic Interface (BIO‐PV‐I) for live cell manipulation is presented. BIO‐PV‐I can be activated non‐invasively and remotely to control the spatial motility, adhesion, and morphology of cells adhering to it. BIO‐PV‐I uses a patterned light‐induced electric potential in iron‐doped lithium niobate crystals whose light‐driven and reversible nature,

Combined effects of parasitism and anthropogenic stressors on behaviour and biomarkers in the freshwater amphipod Gammarus fossarum: Dominant and additive effects prevail

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Chemical contaminants, elevated temperature, and parasitism are expected to impose multiple stresses on aquatic organisms. Their sublethal effects on fitness may be mediated through multiple traits, and combine in additive or interactive ways.
