Here we demonstrate materials and operating conditions that allow for high-resolution printing of layers quantum dots (QDs) with precise control over thickness submicron lateral resolution capabilities use as active QD light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The shapes thicknesses the patterns exhibit systematic dependence on dimensions nozzle ink composition in ways nearly arbitrary, when exploited a fully automated tool. Homogeneous arrays QDs serve basis corresponding LEDs excellent performance....
Low modulus, compliant systems of sensors, circuits and radios designed to intimately interface with the soft tissues human body are growing interest, due their emerging applications in continuous, clinical-quality health monitors advanced, bioelectronic therapeutics. Although recent research establishes various materials mechanics concepts for such technologies, all existing approaches involve simple, two-dimensional (2D) layouts constituent micro-components interconnects. Here we introduce...
Although a direct causative pathway from the gene mutation to selective neostriatal neurodegeneration remains unclear in Huntington's disease (HD), one putative pathological mechanism reported play prominent role pathogenesis of this neurological disorder is mitochondrial dysfunction. We examined mitochondria preferentially vulnerable striatal calbindin-positive neurons moderate-to-severe grade HD patients, using antisera against markers COX2, SOD2 and cytochrome c. Combined calbindin marker...
Phase-change random access memory (PRAM) is considered as one of the most promising candidates for future memories because its good scalability and cost-effectiveness [1]. Besides implementations with standard interfaces like NOR flash or LPDDR2-NVM, application-oriented approaches using PRAM main-memory storage-class have been researched [2-3]. These studies suggest that noticeable merits can be achieved by in improving power consumption, system cost, etc. However, relatively low chip...
Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder previously thought to be of primary neuronal origin, despite ubiquitous expression mutant huntingtin (mHtt). We tested the hypothesis that mHtt expressed in astrocytes may contribute pathogenesis HD. To better understand contribution HD vivo , we developed novel mouse model using lentiviral vectors results selective into striatal astrocytes. Astrocytes expressing progressive phenotype reactive was characterized by marked decreased...
Dual-functioning displays, which can simultaneously transmit and receive information energy through visible light, would enable enhanced user interfaces device-to-device interactivity. We demonstrate that double heterojunctions designed into colloidal semiconductor nanorods allow both efficient photocurrent generation a photovoltaic response electroluminescence within single device. These dual-functioning, all-solution-processed double-heterojunction nanorod light-responsive light-emitting...
