Materials and Wireless Microfluidic Systems for Electronics Capable of Chemical Dissolution on Demand (Adv. Funct. Mater. 92015)

Metamaterials: Snapping Mechanical Metamaterials under Tension (Adv. Mater. 39/2015).

By exploiting snap-through instabilities, D. Pasini and co-workers design a damage-tolerant mechanical metamaterial that snaps sequentially under tension, thereby accommodating a very large deformation up to 150%. On page 5931, they describe how the nonlinear mechanical response of the metamaterial can be robustly programmed by tuning the architecture of its unit cell.

rorc2 gene silencing in human th17 cells by sirna: design and evaluation of highly efficient sirna

background: rna interference-based gene silencing has recently been applied as an efficient tool for functional gene analysis. rorc2 is the key transcription factor orchestrating th17 cells differentiation, the cells that are known as the pathogenic elements in various autoimmune diseases. the aim of this study was to design efficient sirnas specific for rorc2 and to evaluate different criteria...

Design and Simulation of a Highly Efficient InGaN/Si Double-Junction Solar Cell

A solar cell is an electronic device which not only harvests photovoltaic effect but also transforms light energy into electricity. In photovoltaic phenomenon, a P-N junction is created to form an empty region.  The presented paper aims at proposing a new highly efficient InGaN/Si double-junction solar cell structure. This cell is designed to be used in a real environmental situation, so only s...

Nanostructured organosilicon luminophores and their application in highly efficient plastic scintillators

Organic luminophores are widely used in various optoelectronic devices, which serve for photonics, nuclear and particle physics, quantum electronics, medical diagnostics and many other fields of science and technology. Improving their spectral-luminescent characteristics for particular technical requirements of the devices is a challenging task. Here we show a new concept to universal solution ...
