Integrated optical transmitter with micro-transfer-printed widely tunable III-V-on-Si laser
We demonstrate a C-band optical transmitter with an integrated widely-tunable III-V-on-silicon laser on the imec iSiPP50G platform using micro-transfer printing. Back-to-back operation at 40 Gbit/s non-return-to-zero On-Off keying over the C-band is presented
Recent advances quantifying the large wood dynamics in river basins: New methods and remaining challenges

Recent advances quantifying the large wood dynamics in river basins: New methods and remaining challenges. Reviews of Geophysics. doi:10.1002/2015RG000514Large wood is an important physical component of woodland rivers and significantly influences river morphology. It is also a key component of stream ecosystems. However, large wood is also a source of risk for human activities as it may damage infrastructure, block river channels, and induce flooding. Therefore, the analysis and quantification of large wood and its mobility are crucial for understanding and managing wood in rivers. As the amount of large-wood-related studies by researchers, river managers, and stakeholders increases, documentation of commonly used and newly available techniques and their effectiveness has also become increasingly relevant as well. Important data and knowledge have been obtained from the application of very different approaches and have generated a significant body of valuable information representative of different environments. This review brings a comprehensive qualitative and quantitative summary of recent advances regarding the different processes involved in large wood dynamics in fluvial systems including wood budgeting and wood mechanics. First, some key definitions and concepts are introduced. Second, advances in quantifying large wood dynamics are reviewed; in particular, how measurements and modeling can be combined to integrate our understanding of how large wood moves through and is retained within river systems. Throughout, we present a quantitative and integrated meta-analysis compiled from different studies and geographical regions. Finally, we conclude by highlighting areas of particular research importance and their likely future trajectories, and we consider a particularly underresearched area so as to stress the future challenges for large wood research. ©2016.

Microcrystalline tribenzoylcellulose: a high-performanc liquid chromatographic sorbent for the separation of enantiomers
Flüssigkeits-Chromatographie an Triacetylcellulose 7: Characterization of a sorbent for the separation of enantiomers
Microcrystalline triacetylcellulose (dp = 10–20 μm) was used for analytical liquid chromatography at pressures around 50 bar. 1,3,5-Tri-tert.-butylbenzene is proposed as a compound which is not retained on this sorbent. Thus, reliable information about porosity, linear flow-rates, u, and relative retentions become available for the first time. An attempt was made to obtain the plate height, H, dependence upon u in ethanol. For three racemates, comparable data with four eluents were obtained and discussed with a view to future separtions of enantiomers. A general increase of H values of the enantiomers with increasing k′ is found for triacetylcellulose as a sorbent
