Anion-induced N-doping of naphthalenediimide polymer semiconductor in organic thin-film transistors (2018)

Abstract Molecular doping is an important strategy to improve the charge transport properties of organic semiconductors in various electronic devices. Compared to p-type dopants, the development of n-type dopants is especially challenging due to poor dopant stability against atmospheric conditions. In this article, we report the n-doping of the milestone naphthalenediimide-based conjugated polymer P(NDI2OD-T2) in organic thin film transistor devices by soluble anion dopants. The addition of the dopants resulted in the formation of stable radical anions in thin films, as confirmed by EPR spectroscopy. By tuning the dopant concentration via simple solution mixing, the transistor parameters could be readily controlled. Hence the contact resistance between the electrodes and the semiconducting polymer could be significantly reduced, which resulted in the transistor behaviour approaching the desirable gate voltage-independent model. Reduced hysteresis was also observed, thanks to the trap filling by the dopant. Under optimal doping concentrations the channel on-current was increased several fold whilst the on/off ratio was simultaneously increased by around one order of magnitude. Hence doping with soluble organic salts appears to be a promising route to improve the charge transport properties of n-type organic semiconductors.

3D Photonic Nanostructures via Diffusion-Assisted Direct fs Laser Writing (2012)

We present our research into the fabrication of fully three-dimensional metallic nanostructures using diffusion-assisted direct laser writing, a technique which employs quencher diffusion to fabricate structures with resolution beyond the diffraction limit. We have made dielectric 3D nanostructures by multiphoton polymerization using a metal-binding organic-inorganic hybrid material, and we covered them with silver using selective electroless plating. We have used this method to make spirals and woodpiles with 600 nm intralayer periodicity. The resulting photonic nanostructures have a smooth metallic surface and exhibit well-defined diffraction spectra, indicating good fabrication quality and internal periodicity. In addition, we have made dielectric woodpile structures decorated with gold nanoparticles. Our results show that diffusion-assisted direct laser writing and selective electroless plating can be combined to form a viable route for the fabrication of 3D dielectric and metallic photonic nanostructures.
High-Quality Silicon Oxide Film Formed by Diffusion Region Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition and Oxygen Radical Treatment Using Microwave-Excited High-Density Plasma (2003)

In this study, we present the results on silicon oxide films deposited using a Kr/O2/SiH4 high-density and low-ion-energy plasma at low temperature (400°C). The results demonstrate that the post-treatment using the Kr/O2 plasma can eliminate bulk traps related to hydroxylic groups in the films. The silicon oxide films deposited using the high-density low-ion-energy Kr/O2/SiH4 plasma exhibit excellent properties, e.g., low fixed charge density (4 ×1010 cm-2) and high breakdown electric field (>12 MV/cm) and high charge-to-breakdown. Those properties of the deposited films have approached the electrical characteristics of high temperature thermal oxide films. On a poly-Si substrate, a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) silicon oxide film that has a high breakdown field and low leakage current is also obtained.
Differential expression of TGF-β receptors in rabbit zone II flexor tendon wound healing (2000)

Conclusions: We have established cultures for three cell populations involved in flexor tendon wound healing: synovial sheath fibroblasts, epitenon tenocytes, and endotenon tenocytes. The active gene expression of TGF-Beta isoforms by both extrinsic synovial sheath fibroblasts and intrinsic tenocytes [epitenon and endotenon] suggests dual mechanisms of flexor tendon wound healing which may be modulated to promote scarless tendon healing.
Genomic prediction for growth using a low-density SNP panel in dromedary camels (2021)

For thousands of years, camels have produced meat, milk, and fiber in harsh desert conditions. For a sustainable development to provide protein resources from desert areas, it is necessary to pay attention to genetic improvement in camel breeding. By using genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) method we produced over 14,500 genome wide markers to conduct a genome- wide association study (GWAS) for investigating the birth weight, daily gain, and body weight of 96 dromedaries in the Iranian central desert. A total of 99 SNPs were associated with birth weight, daily gain, and body weight (p-value < 0.002). Genomic breeding values (GEBVs) were estimated with the BGLR package using (i) all 14,522 SNPs and (ii) the 99 SNPs by GWAS. Twenty-eight SNPs were associated with birth weight, daily gain, and body weight (p-value < 0.001). Annotation of the genomic region (s) within ± 100 kb of the associated SNPs facilitated prediction of 36 candidate genes. The accuracy of GEBVs was more than 0.65 based on all 14,522 SNPs, but the regression coefficients for birth weight, daily gain, and body weight were 0.39, 0.20, and 0.23, respectively. Because of low sample size, the GEBVs were predicted using the associated SNPs from GWAS. The accuracy of GEBVs based on the 99 associated SNPs was 0.62, 0.82, and 0.57 for birth weight, daily gain, and body weight. This report is the first GWAS using GBS on dromedary camels and identifies markers associated with growth traits that could help to plan breeding program to genetic improvement. Further researches using larger sample size and collaboration of the camel farmers and more profound understanding will permit verification of the associated SNPs identified in this project. The preliminary results of study show that genomic selection could be the appropriate way to genetic improvement of body weight in dromedary camels, which is challenging due to a long generation interval, seasonal reproduction, and lack of records and pedigrees.
Unattractive Consequences: Litigation From Facial Dermabrasion and Chemical Peels (2014)

Out-of-court settlements and jury-awarded damages were considerable in cases where physicians practicing various (or multiple) specialties were named as defendants. These findings emphasize the need for physicians to thoroughly document potential complications prior to treatment, during the informed-consent process. Additionally, general considerations should be taken into account, such as patient expectations and the potential need for other procedures, which may enhance pretreatment communication and ultimately minimize liability. Finally, it is important to stress that physicians may be held liable for procedures performed by nonphysician ancillary staff.
Calculations of the CD spectrum of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease (1997)

CD spectra of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNase A) and its subtilisin-modified from (RNase S) have been calculated, based upon high-resolution structures from x-ray diffraction. All known transitions in the peptide and side-chain groups, especially the aromatic and disulfide groups, have been included. Calculations have been performed with both the matrix method and with first-order perturbation theory. A newly developed method for treating the electrostatic interactions among transition charge densities and between static charge distributions and transition charge densities is used. The effects of local electrostatic fields upon the group transition energies are included for all transitions. Rotational strengths generated by the matrix method were combined with Gaussian band shapes to generate theoretical CD spectra. The calculated spectra reproduce the signs and approximate magnitudes of the near-uv CD bands of both RNase A and S. Agreement is most satisfactory for the negative 275 nm band, dominated by tyrosine contributions. In agreement with two previous studies by other workers, coupling between Tyr 73 and Tyr 115 is the single most important factor in this band. The positive band observed near 240 nm is dominated by disulfide contributions, according to our results. The far-uv CD spectrum is poorly reproduced by the calculations. The observed 208 nm band, characteristic of alpha-helices, is absent from the calculated spectrum, probably because the helices in RNase are short. A strong positive couplet centered near 190 nm is predicted but not observed. Possible reasons for these incorrect predictions of the current theoretical model in the far-uv are discussed.
Protein separation using preparative‐scale dynamic field gradient focusing (2008)

Dynamic field gradient focusing uses an electric field gradient to separate and concentrate proteins in native buffers. A prototype preparative-scale dynamic field gradient focusing apparatus reproducibly separated hemoglobin and bovine serum albumin with a mean resolution of 2.64+/-0.503. Run-to-run variations in the hemoglobin's focal point and peak width appeared to be related to fluctuations in the shape of the electric field, rather than the 5% accuracy of the pump that provided the counter-flow in the separation annulus. The variation in the electric field gradient was probably due to the formation and expansion of an ion-depleted region at the top of the separation annulus.
[Latent alveolitis in systemic disease. The transition between the normal and the pathological]. (1990)

Alveolitis, an accumulation of inflammatory and immune cells in the alveolar structures, is the essential anatomical lesion associated with the development of pulmonary fibrosis. Broncho-alveolar lavage enables the detection of an alveolitis in patients without any respiratory disorder but having known pathology which can frequently lead to interstitial pneumonia, (certain systemic diseases). The cellular analysis of the bronchoalveolar lavage enabled two types of latent alveolitis to be identified: a lymphocytic alveolitis is very frequent during the course of extra-thoracic sarcoidosis, Crohn's disease, primary biliary cirrhosis, Sjögren-Gougerot syndrome, acute systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid disease. A polymorphonuclear neutrophil alveolitis with or without an associated lymphocytosis which confirmed the almost exclusive attribute of either scleroderma, dermatopolymyositis or Sharp's syndrome. The role of alveolar macrophages is shown to be essential by the secretion of free oxygen radicals, chemotactic factor for polymorphonuclear neutrophils and for fibroblasts proliferation factors (fibronectin, fibroblastic growth factor). The significant and prognostic value of latent alveolitis remains poorly understood. A prolonged follow up of patients shows that the existence of a polymorpho-nuclear alveolar neutrophilia or of secretions containing fibronectin and free oxygen radicals from the alveolar macrophages is associated with a progressive deterioration of respiratory function. In summary the evidence of latent alveolitis in asymptomatic patients leads to the hope that in the future early therapeutic intervention may be instituted before the development of irreversible anatomical lesions.
A Higher-Order Programmable Amplitude and Timing Error Shaping Bandpass DEM for Nyquist-Rate D/A Converters (2021)

This paper presents a programmable amplitude and timing error shaping bandpass dynamic- element-matching (DEM) for Nyquist-rate D/A converters. Amplitude and timing-skew errors are shaped using two different loop-filters employed within the DEM structure. The systematic-duty-cycle errors are eliminated from the DAC spectrum using a controlled set of 'ON' transitions for any choice of the input-signal over the Nyquist band. The loop-filter order within the DEM can be selected to 2, 4 or 6 and the DAC errors can be shaped over a narrow or wide band for any choice of center-frequency. This work demonstrates that for a 12-bit segmented Nyquist DAC (5T-7B), the in-band SFDR and IMD3 is >80dBs for the DEM configurations.

Ion beams of carbon clusters and multiply charged fullerenes produced with electron cyclotron resonance ion sources (2005)

The production of carbon cluster ions by injecting C60 fullerene vapor into different electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion sources (MONO1001/2.45GHz and CAPRICE∕14GHz) is described. The extracted ion mass spectra show a bimodal distribution, well known from collisions between electrons or ions and fullerenes. In addition to small carbon clusters and even-numbered fullerene ions, odd-numbered clusters with (n&amp;gt;30) are detected with low intensities. In particular, we have analyzed the mass spectra as a function of the rf power applied to the ECR plasma. Optimum power values are found for the production of individual carbon cluster ions, which increase with decreasing cluster size. Whereas at low power the production of fullerene ions dominates, the intensity of the very small carbon clusters is found to strongly increase with the injected power. This difference in the power dependence is used to vary and to determine the beam composition for ions with identical mass/charge ratios.
WILE: A very low cost web-based integrated learning environment (2008)

Today, Learning Management Systems (LMS), both commercial and open source, are available to implement web-based learning environments, yet they require large servers, a team of support staff, and have expensive licensing costs. Open source LMS alternatives often run on leaner machines, but hiring a team to support the system can be costly. The complexity and cost of undertaking the implementation of an LMS can often be taxing on a smaller institution, but they must offer an LMS to compete with other institutions. WILE (Web-Integrated Learning Environment) is an LMS that uses combinations of either free or low-cost services already available on the Internet. WILE is available anywhere there is an Internet connection through a standard web browser. Fully exploiting the idea of Web 2.0, WILE is a mashup of different services to create a complete web-based environment, different from the wide range of LMS products currently on the market. WILE is a mashup of Google Apps, Google Docs, Google Groups, Gmail, Engrade, and ClassMarker. All the required LMS services are encapsulated into a single âweb desktopâ using Ext JS v2.0. This paper describes the motivation behind the new approach of building an LMS from near zero-cost web services that resulted in WILE. The Web 2.0 background that inspired the building of WILE is described, as well as its design and implementation. At the end of the development, it was found that WILE fulfils 87% of the requirements of a fully functional LMS.
Six-degree-of-freedom displacement sensing method using a diffraction grating as a cooperative target (2002)

A novel six-degree-of-freedom displacement sensing method utilizing typical features of a diffraction grating is presented. It employs a laser source, three position sensitive detectors, a circular diffraction grating, and several optical components. Six-degree-of-freedom displacement is calculated from the coordinates of diffracted rays on the detectors. A forward and an inverse problem were solved to compute the full pose of an object through kinematic analysis. Experimental results show maximum full scale error of less than 0.5% for translation and 0.6% for rotation.
PROTEIN KINASE D (2008)

Protein kinase D (PKD) has emerged as a major target in the signal transduction pathways of acute pancreatitis. Previous studies in our laboratory have demonstrated a role for PKD in NF-κB activation induced by cholecystokinin-8 (CCK). To determine whether PKD also mediated aberrant zymogen activation, isolated rat pancreatic acinar cells were stimulated with supraphysiologic concentrations of cholecystokinin (0.1 μM) for one hour, following a two hour pre-incubation with a novel small molecule PKD inhibitor CRT066101. CRT066101 dose-dependently inhibited CCK-induced PKD activation and autophosphorylation at Ser916 with IC50 ∼3.75-5 μM but had no effect on PKC-dependent phosphorylation of the PKD activation loop (Ser744/748). Importantly, we observed that CCK-induced trypsinogen and chymotrypsinogen activation were significantly decreased by the inhibitor (∼76% and 71% from maximal; p < 0.02 and 0.008 respectively; n = 6). Similarly, the inhibitor reduced CCK-induced amylase secretion from ∼14% to ∼8%. The inhibitor did not affect basal zymogen activation or secretion. Our results indicate that CRT066101 is a potent and specific PKD inhibitor, and identify PKD as a potential mediator of zymogen activation and secretion induced by CCK in pancreatic acinar cells.
Multiple access wiretap channel with cribbing (2017)

This paper Introduces the discrete memoryless multiple access wiretap channel with noiseless cribbing, where the cribbing may be either causal or strictly causal. We derive lower bounds for secrecy rates for both causal and strictly causal cribbing under either a decode-forward or partial-decode-forward strategy. Our results recover the achievable rate regions of the MAC wiretap and MAC with cribbing, and demonstrate improvement of secrecy rate due to cribbing. An outer bound is presented for this channel under causal cribbing, which also serves as an outer bound for strictly causal case.
NDDR-CNN: Layerwise Feature Fusing in Multi-Task CNNs by Neural Discriminative Dimensionality Reduction (2019)

In this paper, we propose a novel Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) structure for general-purpose multi-task learning (MTL), which enables automatic feature fusing at every layer from different tasks. This is in contrast with the most widely used MTL CNN structures which empirically or heuristically share features on some specific layers (e.g., share all the features except the last convolutional layer). The proposed layerwise feature fusing scheme is formulated by combining existing CNN components in a novel way, with clear mathematical interpretability as discriminative dimensionality reduction, which is referred to as Neural Discriminative Dimensionality Reduction (NDDR). Specifically, we first concatenate features with the same spatial resolution from different tasks according to their channel dimension. Then, we show that the discriminative dimensionality reduction can be fulfilled by 1×1 Convolution, Batch Normalization, and Weight Decay in one CNN. The use of existing CNN components ensures the end-to-end training and the extensibility of the proposed NDDR layer to various state-of-the-art CNN architectures in a "plug-and-play" manner. The detailed ablation analysis shows that the proposed NDDR layer is easy to train and also robust to different hyperparameters. Experiments on different task sets with various base network architectures demonstrate the promising performance and desirable generalizability of our proposed method. The code of our paper is available at https://github.com/ethanygao/NDDR-CNN.

Three-dimensional reconstruction in free-space whole-body fluorescence tomography of mice using optically reconstructed surface and atlas anatomy (2009)

We present a 3-D image reconstruction method for free-space fluorescence tomography of mice using hybrid anatomical prior information. Specifically, we use an optically reconstructed surface of the experimental animal and a digital mouse atlas to approximate the anatomy of the animal as structural priors to assist image reconstruction. Experiments are carried out on a cadaver of a nude mouse with a fluorescent inclusion (2.4-mm-diam cylinder) implanted in the chest cavity. Tomographic fluorescence images are reconstructed using an iterative algorithm based on a finite element method. Coregistration of the fluorescence reconstruction and micro-CT (computed tomography) data acquired afterward show good localization accuracy (localization error 1.2+/-0.6 mm). Using the optically reconstructed surface, but without the atlas anatomy, image reconstruction fails to show the fluorescent inclusion correctly. The method demonstrates the utility of anatomical priors in support of free-space fluorescence tomography.
