A scalable method for direct laser patterning of 2D films on transparent substrates like polycarbonate and glass is presented. This technique eliminates the need for photolithography and solvents, enabling the fabrication of functional devices like strain gauges, supercapacitors, and photodetector arrays.

Silicon Nanowire Mats Enable Advanced Bioelectrical Recordings in Primary DRG Cell Cultures
SiNW mat‐based MEA (NW_MEA) enables continuous intracellular recordings from neurons in primary rat DRG cell cultures, identifying C‐fiber nociceptors. Supported by an astrocyte feeder layer, SiNW mat promotes DRG neuron and glial cell growth, preserving in vivo‐like cell characteristics and allowing drug‐modulated activity monitoring.

Business cycle synchronization within the European Union: A wavelet cohesion approach [PDF]
In this paper, we map the process of business cycle synchronization across the European Union. We study this synchronization by applying wavelet techniques, particularly the cohesion measure with time-varying weights. This novel approach allows us to study the dynamic relationship among selected countries from a different perspective than the usual ...
