Spin-dependent transport in metal/semiconductor tunnel junctions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
This paper describes a model as well as experiments on spin-polarized tunnelling with the aid of optical spin orientation. This involves tunnel junctions between a magnetic material and gallium arsenide (GaAs), where the latter is optically excited with ...

Research on Shield Tunnelling Parameters Correlation in Composite Strata

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2022
Shield tunnelling has become the development direction of tunnel construction due to its safety, economy, and speed. The complex formation has complicated geological changes, including soft rock, hard rock, and soft and hard inhomogeneous formation.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Study on the Effect of Natural Wind on the Smoke Spread Law of Extra-Long Tunnel Fires with Inclined Shafts for Air Supply and Exhaust

open access: yesBuildings
High-temperature smoke generated by tunnel fires is the most important factor causing casualties. To explore the influence of natural wind on fire smoke movement in an extra-long highway tunnel based on the Taihang Mountain Tunnel, the distribution law ...

Tools for numerical modelling of tunnelling interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The ongoing development in the world's urban areas inevitably leads to the construction of structures in close proximity to already driven tunnels. Care should be taken to ensure that construction is carried out without damaging the tunnels or any other ...
