In vivo X-ray microtomography locally affects stem radial growth with no immediate physiological impact
Pascal Turberg, Charlotte Grossiord, Hervé Cochard, Laura Mekarni
Microcomputed tomography (mu CT) is a nondestructive X-ray imaging method used in plant physiology to visualize in situ plant tissues that enables assessments of embolized xylem vessels. Whereas evidence for X-ray-induced cellular damage has been reported, ...
Oxford Univ Press Inc2024Characterization of a flexible a-Si:H detector for in vivo dosimetry in therapeutic x-ray beams
Sylvain Dunand, Jonathan Emanuel Thomet, Luca Massimiliano Antognini, Matthew James Large
BackgroundThe increasing use of complex and high dose-rate treatments in radiation therapy necessitates advanced detectors to provide accurate dosimetry. Rather than relying on pre-treatment quality assurance (QA) measurements alone, many countries are now ...
Hoboken2024Hydrogenated amorphous silicon high flux x-ray detectors for synchrotron microbeam radiation therapy
Sylvain Dunand, Matthew James Large, Giulia Rossi
Objective. Microbeam radiation therapy (MRT) is an alternative emerging radiotherapy treatment modality which has demonstrated effective radioresistant tumour control while sparing surrounding healthy tissue in preclinical trials. This apparent selectivity ...
IOP Publishing Ltd2023Modulation of the nanoscale motion rate of Candida albicans by X-rays
Sandor Kasas, María Inés Villalba
IntroductionPatients undergoing cancer treatment by radiation therapy commonly develop Candida albicans infections (candidiasis). Such infections are generally treated by antifungals that unfortunately also induce numerous secondary effects in the patient. ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2023X-ray qualification of hydrogenated amorphous silicon sensors on flexible substrate
Sylvain Dunand, Mikaël Martino, Luca Massimiliano Antognini, Matthew James Large
Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) is a well known material for its radiation resistance and for the possibility of deposition on flexible substrates like Polyimide (PI), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or polyethylene naphthalate (PEN). Due to the p ...
IEEE2023High-Resolution Photoemission Study of Neutron-Induced Defects in Amorphous Hydrogenated Silicon Devices
Sylvain Dunand, Matthew James Large, Giulia Rossi
In this paper, by means of high-resolution photoemission, soft X-ray absorption and atomic force microscopy, we investigate, for the first time, the mechanisms of damaging, induced by neutron source, and recovering (after annealing) of p-i-n detector devic ...
MDPI2022Influence of Fin and Finger Number on TID Degradation of 16-nm Bulk FinFETs Irradiated to Ultrahigh Doses
This article investigates the fin- and finger-number dependence of the total ionizing dose (TID) degradation in 16-nm bulk Si FinFETs at ultrahigh doses. n- and p-FinFETs designed with different numbers of fins and fingers are irradiated up to 500 Mrad(SiO ...
IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC2022Beware of beam damage under reaction conditions: X-ray induced photochemical reduction of supported VOx catalysts during in situ XAS experiments
Davide Ferri, Anna Zabilska, Olga Safonova
In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is a powerful technique for the investigation of heterogeneous catalysts and electrocatalysts. The obtained XAS spectra are usually interpreted from the point of view of the investigated chemical processes, there ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2022Satellite-Based Personal UV Dose Estimation
Athanasios Nenes, David Vernez
Epidemiology and public health research relating to solar ultraviolet (UV) exposure usually relies on dosimetry to measure UV doses received by individuals. However, measurement errors affect each dosimetry measurement by unknown amounts, complicating the ...
2021Fabrication and characterization of cuminaldehyde-loaded electrospun gliadin fiber mats
This work's objective was to develop a novel type of gliadin electrospun fiber with antibacterial properties by incorporating cuminaldehyde in the fibrous structure. Gliadin fibers containing various concentrations of cuminaldehyde were fabricated via an e ...
