Recent Advances in Graphene Homogeneous p–n Junction for Optoelectronics

Spin-orbit effects in a graphene bipolar pn junction

A graphene pn junction is studied theoretically in the presence of both intrinsic and Rashba spin-orbit couplings. We show that a crossover from perfect reflection to perfect transmission is achieved at normal incidence by tuning perpendicular electric field. By further studying angular dependent transmission, we demonstrate that perfect reflection at normal incidence can be clearly distinguish...

Graphene photonics and optoelectronics

611 Electrons propagating through the bidimensional structure of graphene have a linear relation between energy and momentum, and thus behave as massless Dirac fermions1–3. Consequently, graphene exhibits electronic properties for a two-dimensional (2D) gas of charged particles described by the relativistic Dirac equation, rather than the non-relativistic Schrödinger equation with an eff ective...

Recent Advances in Hemophilia Gene Therapy

Heterogeneous loss of function mutations at F8 and F9 genes causes X-linked recessive bleeding disorders, hemophilia A (HA) and hemophilia B (HB), respectively. HA is clinically indistinguishable from HB and accounts for more than 80% of hemophilia cases; the former affects 1/5000 and the latter 1/25000 male births worldwide. In Iran, it is estimated that around 4300 HA and 900 HB patients are ...
