Band-edge-induced Bragg diffraction in two-dimensional photonic crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Two-dimensional photonic crystals composed of two orthogonal volume diffraction gratings have been photogenerated in photopolymers. When the read beam is set at the Bragg angle, the diffraction efficiency of the transmission grating is strongly enhanced ...

Extrasynaptic neurotransmission in the modulation of brain function. Focus on the striatal neuronal-glial networks

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2012
Extrasynaptic neurotransmission is an important short distance form of volume transmission (VT) and describes the extracellular diffusion of transmitters and modulators after synaptic spillover or extrasynaptic release in the local circuit regions ...

Local control of striatal dopamine release

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
The mesolimbic and nigrostriatal dopamine (DA) systems play a key role in the physiology of reward seeking, motivation and motor control. Importantly, they are also involved in the pathophysiology of Parkinson’s and Huntington’s disease, schizophrenia ...

DELIRIUM FROM THE GLIOCENTRIC PERSPECTIVE

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Delirium is an acute state marked by disturbances in cognition, attention, memory, perception, and sleep-wake cycle which is common in elderly. Others have shown an association between delirium and increased mortality, length of hospitalization, cost ...

A New Method to Measure the Post-Reionization Ionizing Background from the Joint Distribution of Lyman-$\alpha$ and Lyman-$\beta$ Forest Transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The amplitude of the ionizing background that pervades the intergalactic medium (IGM) at the end of the epoch of reionization provides a valuable constraint on the emissivity of the sources which reionized the Universe. While measurements of the ionizing

The Neurobiology of Imagination: Possible Role of Interaction-Dominant Dynamics and Default Mode Network

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
This work aims at presenting some hypotheses about the potential neurobiological substrate of imagery and imagination. For the present purposes, we will define imagery as the production of mental images associated with previous percepts, and imagination ...

Extrasynaptic exocytosis and its mechanisms: a source of molecules mediating volume transmission in the nervous system

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2012
We review the evidence of exocytosis from extrasynaptic sites in the soma, dendrites and axonal varicosities of central and peripheral neurons of vertebrates and invertebrates, and how it may contribute to signaling in the nervous system.

EBIC/TEM investigations of process-induced defects in EFG silicon ribbon [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
Electron bombardment induced conductivity and scanning transmission electron microscopy observations on unprocessed and processed edge-defined film-fed growth ribbon show that the phosphorus diffused junction depth is not uniform, and that a variety of ...

Dopaminergic transmission in the rat retina: evidence for volume transmission

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Neuroanatomy, 1996
The study was designed to determine whether dopaminergic neurotransmission in the retina can operate via volume transmission. In double immunolabelling experiments, a mismatch as well as a match was demonstrated in the rat retina between tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and dopamine (DA) immunoreactive (ir) terminals and cell bodies and dopamine D2 receptor ...

Multi-objective optimization model of transmission error of nonlinear dynamic load of double helical gears

open access: yesNonlinear Engineering, 2023
In order to address the impact of reduced transmission stability and reliability caused by volume reduction on the quality of gear transmission, this article proposes a multi-objective optimization model for nonlinear dynamic load transmission errors of ...
