Critical Coupling in Semi‐Trasparent Fano Resonators for Photothermal Converters

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An ultrathin metal–insulator multilayer architecture is engineered to exploit Fano‐resonant critical coupling, completely suppressing optical reflectance while achieving a balanced 50:50 trade‐off between absorbance and transmittance. Upon laser excitation at resonance, the metamaterial generates intense localized heat (ΔT≈550∘C$\Delta T {\approx }550^\

Situation analysis of parasitological and entomological indices of onchocerciasis transmission in three drainage basins of the rain forest of South West Cameroon after a decade of ivermectin treatment

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Community-Directed Treatment with Ivermectin (CDTI) is the main strategy adopted by the African Programme for Onchocerciasis control (APOC). Recent reports from onchocerciasis endemic areas of savannah zones have demonstrated the feasibility ...

Endosomal Escape of siRNA Polyplexes: A Molecular Dynamics Perspective on Underlying Mechanisms

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular dynamics simulations reveal distinct endosomal escape mechanisms of siRNA nanoparticles, ranging from electrostatic membrane attachment to hydrophobic membrane fusion. Hydrophobic residues and anionic endosomal lipids emerge as key determinants of membrane disruption, linking molecular interactions to experimental delivery performance and ...

Programming Neuromorphic Plasticity Through Ionic and Electronic Coupling in Organic Electrochemical Transistors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Neuromorphic plasticity in OECTs is governed by the post‐stimulus evolution of coupled ionic and electronic states. Semiconductor chemistry and morphology, electrolyte composition and interfaces, and device architecture regulate ion injection, transport, confinement, and release, shifting responses from rapidly relaxing STP to metastable memory and ...

Parasite assemblages of Cape horse mackerel (Trachurus capensis Castelnau, 1861) from the northern and southern Benguela [PDF]

, 2013
A survey of parasites infecting Cape horse mackerel, Trachurus capensis Castelnau, 1861, from both the southern and northern Benguela ecosystems was conducted to test the hypothesis of discrete stocks in each subsystem.

A Particle‐Level Dual‐Polymer Interphase for Coupled Interfacial and Contact Stabilization of Zinc Metal Powder Anodes in Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A particle‐level dual‐polymer interphase of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) stabilizes zinc metal powder anodes by coupling CMC‐mediated water regulation with PAA‐derived Zn2+ affinity. This synergy suppresses hydrogen evolution, corrosion, and byproduct accumulation while preserving electrode‐level electrical contact ...

Anti‐Inflammatory and Neuroactive Effects of Polymer‐Coated Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Functionalized With Interleukin 4 for Spinal Cord Injury

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Polymer‐coated IONPs functionalized with IL‐4 display respective neuroactive and anti‐inflammatory actions on neural progenitor cells and macrophages/microglia in vitro. When examined chronically in a rat experimental model of spinal cord injury, rGO scaffolds carrying these nanosystems adequately integrate into the lesion, significantly reduce ...
