Scaling in a simple model for surface growth in a random medium

open access: yes, 2002
Surface growth in random media is usually governed by both the surface tension and the random local forces. Simulations on lattices mimic the former by imposing a maximum gradient $m$ on the surface heights, and the latter by site-dependent random growth

From Molecule to Aggregate: Designing AIE Nanocrystals for Low‐Power Backward Third‐Harmonic Generation Angiography

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An organic BTHG agent called OTBP with prominent crystallinity is developed. The resonant absorption at 433 nm and prominent crystallinity of OTBP enhance its BTHG efficiency when excited by a 1300 nm femtosecond laser. Tuning the size of OTBP nanocrystals based on Mie scattering theory successfully enables them to achieve high‐contrast muti‐organ ...

Reduced branching processes with very heavy tails

open access: yes, 2007
The reduced Markov branching process is a stochastic model for the genealogy of an unstructured biological population. Its limit behavior in the critical case is well studied for the Zolotarev-Slack regularity parameter $\alpha\in(0,1]$.

Local extinction and colonisation in native and exotic fish in relation to changes in land use [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Distribution patterns of many native and exotic fish species are well documented, yet little is known about the temporal dynamics of native and exotic diversity in relation to changes in land use.

Photobiological effects at Earth's surface following a 50 pc Supernova

open access: yes, 2017
We investigated the potential biological impacts at Earth's surface of stratospheric O3 depletion caused by nearby supernovae known to have occurred about 2.5 and 8 million years ago at about 50 pc distance.

Challenges and Opportunities of Upconversion Nanoparticles for Emerging NIR Optoelectronic Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The special photo‐responsiveness of upconversion nanoparticles has opened up a new path for the advancement of near‐infrared (NIR)‐responsive optoelectronics. However, challenges such as low energy‐conversion efficiency and high nonradiative losses still persist.

Diet of two species of fish family Cichlidae (Astronotus ocellatus and Cichla pinima) introduced in the Paraguaçu River, Bahia

open access: yesBiotemas, 2014
Analysis of the diet of introduced fish species allows us to understand their trophic position in the community, their level of predation, and possibly to identify the if and when they act as competitors and/or predators.

Competition between extinction and enhancement in surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy

open access: yes, 2013
Conjugated metallic nanoparticles are a promising means to achieve ultrasensitive and multiplexed sensing in intact three-dimensional samples, especially for biological applications, via surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS).

Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent
