Rashba effect induced localization in quantum networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We study a quantum network extending in one-dimension (chain of square loops connected at one vertex) made up of quantum wires with Rashba spin-orbit coupling. We show that the Rashba effect may give rise to an electron localization phenomenon similar to

A Biophysical Systems Approach to Identifying the Pathways of Acute and Chronic Doxorubicin Mitochondrial Cardiotoxicity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2016
The clinical use of the anthracycline doxorubicin is limited by its cardiotoxicity which is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Redox cycling, mitochondrial DNA damage and electron transport chain inhibition have been identified as potential ...

Crossover from time-correlated single-electron tunneling to that of Cooper pairs

open access: yes, 2007
We have studied charge transport in a one-dimensional chain of small Josephson junctions using a single-electron transistor. We observe a crossover from time-correlated tunneling of single electrons to that of Cooper pairs as a function of both magnetic ...

Inelastic electron transport in polymer nanofibers

open access: yes, 2008
In this paper we present theoretical analysis of the electron transport in conducting polymers. We concentrate on the study of the effects of temperature on characteristics of the transport. We treat a conducting polymers in a metal state as a network of

A Feed-Forward Circuit of Endogenous PGC-1α and Estrogen Related Receptor α Regulates the Neuronal Electron Transport Chain

open access: yesParkinson's Disease, 2016
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor  γ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) is a central regulator of cellular and mitochondrial metabolism. Cellular bioenergetics are critically important in “energy-guzzling” neurons, but the components and wiring of the ...

Impurity Scattering of Wave Packets on a Lattice

open access: yes, 2006
Quantum transport in a lattice is distinct from its counterpart in continuum media. Even a free wave packet travels differently in a lattice than in the continuum.

Unique photosynthetic electron transport tuning and excitation distribution in heterokont algae.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Heterokont algae are significant contributors to marine primary productivity. These algae have a photosynthetic machinery that shares many common features with that of Viridiplantae (green algae and land plants).

Coulomb Gap in Graphene Nanoribbons

open access: yes, 2011
We investigate the density and temperature-dependent conductance of graphene nanoribbons with varying aspect ratio. Transport is dominated by a chain of quantum dots forming spontaneously due to disorder. Depending on ribbon length, electron density, and

Plastid redox state and sugars: Interactive regulators of nuclear-encoded photosynthetic gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Feedback regulation of photosynthesis by carbon metabolites has long been recognized, but the underlying cellular mechanisms that control this process remain unclear.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...
