Holobiont Evolution: Mathematical Model with Vertical vs. Horizontal Microbiome Transmission [PDF]
, 2020 A holobiont is a composite organism consisting of a host together with its microbiome, such as a coral with its zooxanthellae. To explain the often intimate integration between hosts and their microbiomes, some investigators contend that selection ...

An optical modulator based on a single strongly coupled quantum dot - cavity system in a p-i-n junction [PDF]
, 2009 We demonstrate an optical modulator based on a single quantum dot strongly coupled to a photonic crystal cavity. A vertical p-i-n junction is used to tune the quantum dot and thereby modulate the cavity transmission, with a measured instrument-limited ...
