Cross-neutralizing antibodies bind a SARS-CoV-2 cryptic site and resist circulating variants
The emergence of numerous variants of SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19, has presented new challenges to the global efforts to control the COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we obtain two cross-neutralizing antibodies (7D6 and...
Realization of III-Nitride c-Plane microLEDs Emitting from 470 to 645 nm on Semi-Relaxed Substrates Enabled by V-Defect-Free Base Layers
We examine full InGaN-based microLEDs on c-plane semi-relaxed InGaN substrates grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) that operate across a wide range of emission wavelengths covering nearly the entire visible spectrum. By employing a periodic InGaN...
On the occasion of the 80th birthday of Professor Yitai Qian: Celebrating 60 years of innovation in solid-state chemistry and nanoscience
Professor Yitai Qian, a pioneer in nanomaterials, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and a professor at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), has committed his entire career to the development of solid-state chemistry and...
All-optical synthesis of an arbitrary linear transformation using diffractive surfaces
Spatially-engineered diffractive surfaces have emerged as a powerful framework to control light-matter interactions for statistical inference and the design of task-specific optical components. Here, we report the design of diffractive surfaces to all-optically...
Keplerate Ag192 Cluster with 6 Silver and 14 Chalcogenide Octahedral and Tetrahedral Shells
Silver clusters with more than 2 concentric silver shells are scarce. Here, we enable self-assembly and crystallize SD/Ag192a, a highly symmetric silver chalcogenide cluster (SCC) with 192 silver cations in 6 shells and 136 anionic groups in 14 shells. All but 1 of...
Design and validation of an intraoperative autofluorescence lifetime imaging device
As we know, fluorescence lifetime imaging has demonstrated the ability to accurately detect materials and tissue constituents. Current fluorescence lifetime systems rely on accurate temporal sampling to capture the tails of the decaying emission. These data are often...
A Newly Created Meso-, Micro-, and Nano-Scale Rough Titanium Surface Promotes Bone-Implant Integration
Titanium implants are the standard therapeutic option when restoring missing teeth and reconstructing fractured and/or diseased bone. However, in the 30 years since the advent of micro-rough surfaces, titanium’s ability to integrate with bone has not improved...
Murine maternal dietary restriction affects neural Humanin expression and cellular profile
To understand the cellular basis for the neurodevelopmental effects of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), we examined the global and regional expression of various cell types within murine (Mus musculus) fetal brain. Our model employed maternal calorie...
