Studies of InGaNâGaN multiquantum-well green-light-emitting diodes grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition
InGaN(3nm)âGaN(5nm) three period multiquantum green-light-emitting diodes(LEDs) grown by the metalorganic chemical vapor deposition technique have been studied using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), double crystal high resolution x-ray diffraction (HRXRD) and low temperature photoluminescence. HRTEM analysis showed that the defect density gradually decreased in the growth direction with increasing thickness. Self-assembled quantum dot-likestructures in the wells and black lumps between the well and barrier due to In segregation and strain contrast were observed, respectively. The HRXRD spectrum of the green LEDstructure was simulated using the kinematical theory method to obtain the composition and thickness of the well and barrier. The quantum-well (QW) green emission peak 2.557eV at 10K showed âSâ shaped shift like a redâblueâred shift with variation of the temperature in the photoluminescence spectra due to potential fluctuations caused by inhomogeneous alloy distribution in the wells. The activation energy of 49meVobtained from the QW green emission line indicated deepening of the localization of the carriers
Contribution of the cyclic nucleotide gated channel subunit, CNG-3, to olfactory plasticity in Caenorhabditis elegans.
In Caenorhabditis elegans, the AWC neurons are thought to deploy a cGMP signaling cascade in the detection of and response to AWC sensed odors. Prolonged exposure to an AWC sensed odor in the absence of food leads to reversible decreases in the animal's attraction to that odor. This adaptation exhibits two stages referred to as short-term and long-term adaptation. Previously, the protein kinase G (PKG), EGL-4/PKG-1, was shown necessary for both stages of adaptation and phosphorylation of its target, the beta-type cyclic nucleotide gated (CNG) channel subunit, TAX-2, was implicated in the short term stage. Here we uncover a novel role for the CNG channel subunit, CNG-3, in short term adaptation. We demonstrate that CNG-3 is required in the AWC for adaptation to short (thirty minute) exposures of odor, and contains a candidate PKG phosphorylation site required to tune odor sensitivity. We also provide in vivo data suggesting that CNG-3 forms a complex with both TAX-2 and TAX-4 CNG channel subunits in AWC. Finally, we examine the physiology of different CNG channel subunit combinations
A biologically inspired network design model
A network design problem is to select a subset of links in a transport network that satisfy passengers or cargo transportation demands while minimizing the overall costs of the transportation. We propose a mathematical model of the foraging behaviour of slime mould P. polycephalum to solve the network design problem and construct optimal transport networks. In our algorithm, a traffic flow between any two cities is estimated using a gravity model. The flow is imitated by the model of the slime mould. The algorithm model converges to a steady state, which represents a solution of the problem. We validate our approach on examples of major transport networks in Mexico and China. By comparing networks developed in our approach with the man-made highways, networks developed by the slime mould, and a cellular automata model inspired by slime mould, we demonstrate the flexibility and efficiency of our approach
The in-plane paraconductivity in La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4 thin film superconductors at high reduced-temperatures: Independence of the normal-state pseudogap
The in-plane resistivity has been measured in (LSxCO)
superconducting thin films of underdoped (), optimally-doped
() and overdoped () compositions. These films were grown
on (100)SrTiO substrates, and have about 150 nm thickness. The in-plane
conductivity induced by superconducting fluctuations above the superconducting
transition (the so-called in-plane paraconductivity, ) was
extracted from these data in the reduced-temperature range
10^{-2}\lsim\epsilon\equiv\ln(T/\Tc)\lsim1. Such a
was then analyzed in terms of the
mean-field--like Gaussian-Ginzburg-Landau (GGL) approach extended to the
high- region by means of the introduction of a total-energy cutoff,
which takes into account both the kinetic energy and the quantum localization
energy of each fluctuating mode. Our results strongly suggest that at all
temperatures above Tc, including the high reduced-temperature region, the
doping mainly affects in LSxCO thin films the normal-state properties and that
its influence on the superconducting fluctuations is relatively moderate: Even
in the high- region, the in-plane paraconductivity is found to be
independent of the opening of a pseudogap in the normal state of the underdoped
films.Comment: 35 pages including 10 figures and 1 tabl
An emergent quasi-2D metallic state derived from the Mott insulator framework
Recent quasi-2D systems with judicious exploitation of the atomic monolayer
or few-layer architecture exhibit unprecedented physical properties that
challenge the conventional wisdom on the condensed matter physics. Here we show
that the infinite layer SrCuO2 (SCO), a topical cuprate Mott insulator in the
bulk form, can manifest an unexpected metallic state in the quasi-2D limit when
SCO is grown on TiO2-terminated SrTiO3 (STO) substrates. Hard x-ray core-level
photoemission spectra demonstrate a definitive Fermi level that resembles the
hole doped metal. Soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy also reveals features
analogous to those of a hole doped Mott insulator. Based on these results, we
conclude that the hole doping does not occur at the interfaces between SCO and
STO; instead, it comes from the transient layers between the chain type and the
planar type structures within the SCO slab. The present work reveals a novel
metallic state in the infinite layer SCO and invites further examination to
elucidate the spatial extent of this state.Comment: 31 pages, 11 figures. Physical Review B, in pres
Structural Basis for Auto-Inhibition of the NDR1 Kinase Domain by an Atypically Long Activation Segment.
The human NDR family kinases control diverse aspects of cell growth, and are regulated through phosphorylation and association with scaffolds such as MOB1. Here, we report the crystal structure of the human NDR1 kinase domain in its non-phosphorylated state, revealing a fully resolved atypically long activation segment that blocks substrate binding and stabilizes a non-productive position of helix αC. Consistent with an auto-inhibitory function, mutations within the activation segment of NDR1 dramatically enhance in vitro kinase activity. Interestingly, NDR1 catalytic activity is further potentiated by MOB1 binding, suggesting that regulation through modulation of the activation segment and by MOB1 binding are mechanistically distinct. Lastly, deleting the auto-inhibitory activation segment of NDR1 causes a marked increase in the association with upstream Hippo pathway components and the Furry scaffold. These findings provide a point of departure for future efforts to explore the cellular functions and the mechanism of NDR1
ESTABLISHMENT OF HD MAPS VERIFICATION AND VALIDATION PROCEDURE WITH OPENDRIVE AND AUTOWARE (LANELET2) FORMATS
Mobile mapping technologies, for example multi-sensor integration and multi-platform mapping technology, have developed and improved over recent decades, various applications such as conventional mapping scenarios, rapid disaster response, smart city, and autonomous vehicle application arise synchronously. Especially, autonomous driving vehicles have made enormous progress. High-definition (HD) maps are key for autonomous driving because of their high accuracy and rich information of road scenes. However, how to make sure that HD maps are suitable for autonomous vehicle requirement is an important topic. The HD maps guidelines and standards in Taiwan are released since 2018 and mainly focus on point cloud and shape file format. In this paper, a procedure for the verification and validation of HD maps for OpenDRIVE and Autoware (Lanelet2) is proposed. It discusses about the verification strategies, suggestion review item, recommendation tools, and process. As shown by our preliminary results, the proposed process can conform not only in closed area but also public road. These issues can help reducing HD maps production costs. When the foundation of HD maps accomplishes, the autonomous driving techniques can naturally complement. The vision of full automation vehicle will come true rapidly in the future
