A neural network interatomic potential for the phase change material GeTe

, 2012
GeTe is a prototypical phase change material of high interest for applications in optical and electronic non-volatile memories. We present an interatomic potential for the bulk phases of GeTe, which is created using a neural network (NN) representation ...

Refining the NaV1.7 pharmacophore of a class of venom‐derived peptide inhibitors via a combination of in silico screening and rational engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

Advanced solid–solid phase change thermal storage material

Nano Research Energy
The practicality of conventional solid–liquid phase change materials (PCMs) is adversely restricted by liquid phase leakage, large volume expansion, shape instability, and severe corrosion in high-temperature thermal management systems.

Inducing Chalcogenide Phase Change with Ultra-Narrow Carbon Nanotube Heaters [PDF]

Appl. Phys. Lett. 95, 243103 (2009), 2009
Carbon nanotube (CNT) heaters with sub-5 nm diameter induce highly localized phase change in Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) chalcogenide. A significant reduction in resistance of test structures is measured as the GST near the CNT heater crystallizes. Effective GST heating occurs at currents as low as 25 uA, significantly lower than in conventional phase change ...

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae amino acid transporter Lyp1 has a broad substrate spectrum

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yeast Amino acid Transporter family members mediate the import of amino acids, ranging from substrate specialists to generalists. Here, we show that the specialist transporter, Lyp1, has a broader substrate spectrum than previously described, with affinity constants spanning from micromolar to millimolar.

Progressive amorphization of GeSbTe phase-change material under electron beam irradiation

, 2019
Fast and reversible phase transitions in chalcogenide phase-change materials (PCMs), in particular, Ge-Sb-Te compounds, are not only of fundamental interests, but also make PCMs based random access memory (PRAM) a leading candidate for non-volatile ...
