Hyperbolic-secant mode coupling [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
This work presents a new solution of the coupled mode equations for a hyperbolic secant spatial variation of the coupling between two modes. An analytic expression is given for the transmission coefficient for arbitrary complex differential propagation ...

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Mode coupling between first- and second-order whispering-gallery modes in coupled microdisks

open access: yes, 2007
The mode characteristics for two coupled microdisks are investigated by the finite-difference time-domain technique. In the two coupled micodisks, mode coupling between the same order whispering-gallery modes (WGMs) results in coupled WGMs with split ...

Planar Photonic Crystal Nanocavities with Active Quantum Nanostructures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Extreme photon localization is applicable to constructing building blocks in photonic systems and quantum information systems. A finding fact that photon localization in small space modifies the radiation process was reported in 1944 by Purcell, and ...

Tunable Near-Infrared Transparent Bands Based on Cascaded Fabry–Perot Cavities Containing Phase Change Materials

open access: yesPhotonics
In this paper, we construct a near-infrared Fabry–Perot cavity composed of two sodium (Na) layers and an antimony trisulfide (Sb2S3) layer. By cascading two Fabry–Perot cavities, the transmittance peak splits into two transmittance peaks due to the ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Coupled modes at interfaces: A review

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 2002
Wave-to-wave coupling may arise when an acoustic pulse selects a Rayleigh mode of the same speed and both travel together swapping energy across an interface. A distinctive coupled signal called Ti was observed at the Hawaii-2 Observatory from earthquakes on the Blanco and Mendocino Fracture Zones, off the coast of North America.

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Investigation of mode coupling in a microdisk resonator for realizing directional emission

open access: yes, 2009
Mode coupling between the whispering-gallery modes (WGMs) is numerically investigated for a two-dimensional microdisk resonator with an output waveguide. The equilateral-polygonal shaped mode patterns can be constructed by mode coupling in the microdisk,
