Contact Lens Materials: A Materials Science Perspective
More is demanded from ophthalmic treatments using contact lenses, which are currently used by over 125 million people around the world. Improving the material of contact lenses (CLs) is a now rapidly evolving discipline.

Fiber-Based SERS-Fluidic Polymeric Platforms for Improved Optical Analysis of Liquids
Downsizing surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) within microfluidic devices has opened interesting perspectives for the development of low-cost and portable (bio)sensors for the optical analysis of liquid samples. Despite the research efforts, SERS-

A Perfect Lens for Ballistic Electrons: A Kane's Model [PDF]
The analogy between electromagnetic waves and ballistic electrons within the Kane's model is developed and subsequently applied to a theoretical description of a quantum version of a metamaterial planar lens. Restrictions imposed on the perfect lens and the poor man's lens by available semiconductor band structures are discussed.

Sharing the burden : on the division of parental care and vocalizations during incubation [PDF]
In species with biparental care, individuals only have to pay the costs for their own parental investment, whereas the contribution of their partner comes for free. Each parent hence benefits if its partner works harder, creating an evolutionary conflict

Lens coloboma treated with lens surgery [PDF]
A 5-year-old boy was referred to our clinic due to an abnormal visual acuity test at school. His corrected visual acuity was counting fingers in the left eye. A nasal side deficiency of the lens substituted by a membrane was found. Lens coloboma was diagnosed. After making a 3 mm limbal incision, the colobomatous lens was removed by anterior continuous

Strong Noise Rejection in VLC Links under Realistic Conditions through a Real-Time SDR Front-End
One of the main challenges in the deployment of visible light communication (VLC) in realistic application fields, such as intelligent transportation systems (ITSs), is represented by the presence of large background noise levels on top of the optical ...

Differentiation state-specific mitochondrial dynamic regulatory networks are revealed by global transcriptional analysis of the developing chicken lens. [PDF]
The mature eye lens contains a surface layer of epithelial cells called the lens epithelium that requires a functional mitochondrial population to maintain the homeostasis and transparency of the entire lens.

Contact Lens Technology: From Fundamentals to Applications
Contact lenses are ocular prosthetic devices used by over 150 million people worldwide. Primary applications of contact lenses include vision correction, therapeutics, and cosmetics. Contact lens materials have significantly evolved over time to minimize
