Role of dislocations in nitride laser diodes with different indium content
Scientific Reports, 2021 In this work we investigate the role of threading dislocations in nitride light emitters with different indium composition. We compare the properties of laser diodes grown on the low defect density GaN substrate with their counterparts grown on sapphire ...

Plasmons in AlGaN/GaN grating-gate structure probing with 300 K background illumination
AIP Advances, 2023 We show that terahertz plasmons in AlGaN/GaN grating-gate structures efficiently modulate the reflection of room temperature thermal radiation, leading to spectra that are in agreement with the measurements of plasmon absorption using high-power external

Age-stratified and blood-pressure-stratified effects of blood-pressure-lowering pharmacotherapy for the prevention of cardiovascular disease and death: an individual participant-level data meta-analysis [PDF]
, 2021 Background The effects of pharmacological blood-pressure-lowering on cardiovascular outcomes in individuals aged 70 years and older, particularly when blood pressure is not substantially increased, is uncertain.

The impact of point defects in n-type GaN layers on thermal decomposition of InGaN/GaN QWs
Scientific Reports, 2021 The aim of this paper is to give an experimental evidence that point defects (most probably gallium vacancies) induce decomposition of InGaN quantum wells (QWs) at high temperatures.
