Photoionization of atoms by high-order harmonics in the presence of a laser may lead to quantum interference from which information about the photoionization dynamics or the light fields can be extracted. Traditionally, this interference arises from two-photon transitions involving the absorption of consecutive harmonics combined with the absorption and stimulated emission of a laser photon. In th
Cortical interneuron deficiencies, particularly involving the somatostatin (SST) subtypes, contribute to neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. These interneurons are difficult to derive in vitro from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) due to their late embryonic development and dependence on glial interaction. To this end, we developed a three-dimensional co-culture model of hESC-derived ne
PURPOSE: Given the paucity of data regarding workplace risk of COVID-19, particularly from countries with limited lockdowns, we aimed to quantify the occupational risks of COVID-19-related hospital admission among workers in Sweden.METHODS: We identified 607,179 employed individuals, 20-69 years of age, in Skåne, Sweden. From December 31st, 2019-December 31st 2021, 2,633 incident COVID-19-related
Adolescent girls are particularly susceptible to iron deficiency due to increased iron requirements during the pubertal growth spurt, combined with iron loss following menarche. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of heavy menstrual bleeding in an adolescent population using the SAMANTA questionnaire and to explore its relationship with dietary habits and iron deficiency. This cross-sec
Single-cell and single-nuclei RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq and snRNA-seq) analyze cell-specific transcriptomes. However, only snRNA-seq applies to frozen biobanked samples. For human pancreatic islets, marker genes and reference-based cell type annotation methods are mainly from scRNA-seq datasets and may not be suitable for snRNA-seq. We compared human islet scRNA-seq and snRNA-seq data from the sam
This study presents a cryogenic resonant radio frequency (RF) transmitter coil design for magnetic field generation that utilizes electromechanical switches to match and tune the resonance frequency with capacitor banks in situ. The design enables magnetic field generation at any frequency across a wide frequency range of 25-140 MHz (560% tuning range) while operating at 1.5 K. Magnetic field gene
Although outcomes for newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) have been incrementally improved over the last decades, management of relapsed and refractory (R/R) AML remains a medical challenge. A curative intent for R/R AML usually involves chemotherapy (with or without targeted therapy) with subsequent consolidation, including allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Despite th
Developments in ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) technology have led to vast amounts of ECG data that currently need to be interpreted by human technicians. Here we tested an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm for direct-to-physician reporting of ambulatory ECGs. Beat-by-beat annotation of 14,606 individual ambulatory ECG recordings (mean duration = 14 ± 10 days) was performed by certified E
Nanowire (NW) optoelectronic and electrical devices offer unique advantages over bulk materials but are generally made by contacting entire NW arrays in parallel. In contrast, ultra-high-resolution displays and photodetectors require electrical connections to individual NWs inside an array. Here, we demonstrate a scheme for fabricating such single NW vertical devices by contacting individual NWs w
BACKGROUND: Self-reported mental stress is not consistently recognized as a risk factor for stroke. This prompted development of a novel algorithm for stress-phenotype indices to quantify chronic stress prevalence in relation to a modified stroke risk score in a South African cohort. The algorithm is based on biomarkers adrenocorticotrophic hormone, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-sensi
State-of-the-art laser frequency stabilization is limited by miniscule length changes caused by thermal noise. In this work, a cavity-length-insensitive frequency stabilization scheme is implemented using strong dispersion in a 21 mm long cavity with a europium-ion-doped spacer of yttrium orthosilicate. A number of limiting factors for slow light laser stabilization are evaluated, including the in
To extend the output DC power range of energy harvester from μW to mW, the 29.5 GHz rectifier using vertical nanowire Tunnel Field-Effect Transistor (VNW-TFET) is presented in this paper. Advantaged by the low threshold voltage, very steep characteristics, and its ability to operate below 60mV/decade, VNW-TFET is a promising device in rectifier design for low power applications. By analyzing the r
A clear understanding of the mechanisms governing the growth of nanowires is crucial to achieving control over their structures and properties. Here, we employ molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate several important phenomena in Au-catalyzed Si nanowires (SiNWs) grown via the vapor–liquid–solid method. MD simulation serves as a complementary tool for uncovering the mechanisms of nanow
The nonvolatile cryogenic memories can play an important role in realizing energy-efficient and scalable low-temperature electronics for quantum computing and future high-performance computing systems. In this article, we evaluate he cryogenic performance of HfOx-based resistive random access memory (RRAM) and demonstrate that the addition of extremely thin ∼0.5-nm AlOx barrier layers enables a h
Neuroblastoma exhibits two cellular phenotypes: therapy-sensitive adrenergic (ADRN) and therapy-resistant mesenchymal (MES). To understand treatment response, it is important to elucidate how these phenotypes impact the dynamics of cancer cell populations and whether they represent distinct cell types or dynamic cell states. Here, we use an integrated experimental and mathematical modeling approac
The high-frequency capacitive and switching response of ferroelectric Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 (HZO) is investigated on scaled ferroelectric metal-oxide-semiconductor III-V capacitors. Spanning over six orders of magnitude, the measured frequency response allows for accurate modeling of the capacitance-frequency dispersion. The steady-state ferroelectric behavior is retained even in the mm-wave frequency rang
