Impact of treatment planning target volumen (PTV) size on radiation induced diarrhoea following selenium supplementation in gynecologic radiation oncology - a subgroup analysis of a multicenter, phase III trial [PDF]
, 2013 Background: In a previous analysis (Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 70:828-835,2010), we assessed whether an adjuvant supplementation with selenium (Se) improves Se status and reduces the radiation-induced side-effects of patients treated by adjuvant ...

Boosting Polysulfide Conversion on Fe‐Doped Nickel Diselenide Toward Robust Lithium–Sulfur Batteries
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work reports an advanced functional material based on Fe‐doped nickel diselenides toward robust lithium–sulfur batteries, demonstrating that Fe‐rich cores and surface doping enhance the density of states at the Fermi level and introduce unpaired electrons for the improvement of the LiPS adsorption and catalytic conversion. Abstract Sulfur offers a

Increasing the Collection Efficiency in Selenium Thin-Film Solar Cells Using a Closed-Space Annealing Strategy [PDF]
ACS Appl. Energy Mater. 2024, 7, 12, 5209-5215Elemental selenium is a promising wide-bandgap ($E_\mathrm{G}\approx$ 1.95 eV) photovoltaic material for the next generation of thin-film solar cells. To realize high-efficiency selenium solar cells, it is crucial to optimize the crystallization process of the selenium thin-film photoabsorber.

MBE grown microcavities based on selenium and tellurium compounds [PDF]
, 2013 In this work, we present three groups of microcavities: based on selenium compounds only, based on tellurium compounds only, and structures based on mixed selenium and tellurium compounds. We focus on their possible applications in the field of optoelectronic devices and fundamental physics (VCSELs, narrow range light sources, studies of cavity ...

Direct MD simulation of liquid-solid phase equilibria for two-component plasmas [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 85, 066405 (2012), 2011 We determine the liquid-solid phase diagram for carbon-oxygen and oxygen-selenium plasma mixtures using two-phase MD simulations. We identified liquid, solid, and interface regions using a bond angle metric. To study finite size effects, we perform 27648 and 55296 ion simulations.

Tunable Thermoshrinkable Hydrogels for 4D Fabrication of Cell‐Seeded Channels
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A thermoresponsive polymer with methacrylate groups for photo‐cross‐linking, based on polyethylene glycol, N‐isopropylacrylamide, and 2‐hydroxyethyl acrylate is synthetized to yield hydrogels that shrink upon temperature increase. The new polymer enables the fabrication of cell‐laden perfusable channels with diameters below 200 µm by combining ...

Amorphous Selenium Mie Resonators for Infrared Meta-Optics [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Applying direct growth and deposition of optical surfaces holds great promise for the advancement of future nanophotonic technologies. Here, we report on a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique for depositing amorphous selenium (a-Se) spheres by desorption of selenium from Bi2Se3 and re-adsorption on the substrate.
