Function Junction

Carrier-selective contacts play a crucial role in improving the performance of silicon solar cells by reducing recombination losses. This study explores the use of sub-stoichiometric molybdenum oxide (MoOx) as a holeselective contact material deposited via thermal evaporation.

Ebook "Tight junctions" highlight the importance of understanding TJ physiology in order to develop effective strategies for the treatment of pathological conditions such as cancer and autoimmune diseases. The first chapter of this book describes the evolution of the transporting epithelium from primitive metazoans to mammalian epithelia. Then, Chapters 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 review the characteristics and functionality of difi^erent proteins of theTJ studied in cell culture models, natural epithelia, mutant mice and heritable human diseases.

In this work, we propose fullerene molecule C20 as an anchor to fabricate a robust aromatic molecular junction. The electron transport properties of this fullerene terminated aromatic molecular device at zero bias and finite bias voltage are investigated by using non-equilibrium Green's function combined with density functional theory.

This book focuses on the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) content standards for Algebra. The activities are divided into four main sections based on the NCTM Algebra standards. Students will learn to understand patterns, relations, and functions. For grades 3–5, this includes describing, extending, and making generalizations about geometric and numeric patterns as well as representing and analyzing patterns and functions using words, tables, and graphs.

The objective of this project was to develop \(Ti{O_2}\) based multifunctional substrates through silver decoration, while simultaneously enhancing the photocatalytic performance of \(Ti{O_2}\) in the substrate. Employing Ag nanoparticles introduced additional functionality to the system, namely surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), thus enabling the detection of trace amounts of organic molecules prior to their degradation, all with the same substrate.

The emergence of epithelia was the foundation of metazoan expansion. Epithelial tissues are a hallmark of metazoans deeply rooted in the evolution of their complex developmental morphogenesis processes. However, studies on the epithelial features of non-bilaterians are still sparse and it remains unclear whether the last common metazoan ancestor possessed a fully functional epithelial toolkit or if it was acquired later during metazoan evolution.

Recent work has shown that the gap junction protein connexin43 (Cx43) is upregulated in cells of the joint during osteoarthritis (OA). Here we examined if the OA-associated increase in Cx43 expression impacts the function of synovial fibroblasts by contributing to the production of catabolic and inflammatory factors that exacerbate joint destruction in arthritic disease.
