Pseudospin, an additional degree of freedom emerging in graphene as a direct consequence of its honeycomb atomic structure, is responsible for many of the exceptional electronic properties found in this material. This paper is devoted to providing a clear ...
During an instruction miss a processor is unable to fetch instructions. The more frequent instruction misses are the less able a modern processor is to find useful work to do and thus performance suffers. Online transaction processing (OLTP) suffers from h ...
Mutationally corrupted cancer (stem) cells are the driving force of tumor development and progression. Yet, these transformed cells cannot do it alone. Assemblages of ostensibly normal tissue and bone marrow-derived (stromal) cells are recruited to constit ...
Transcription factors have two functional constraints on their evolution: (1) their binding sites must have enough information to be distinguishable from all other sequences in the genome, and (2) they must bind these sites with an affinity that appropriat ...
Batteries, fuel cells and solar cells, among many other high-current-density devices, could benefit from the precise meso-to macroscopic structure control afforded by the silica sol-gel process. The porous materials made by silica sol-gel chemistry are typ ...
Several Hall sensor configurations have been integrated in CMOS 0.35 mu m technology and analyzed in terms of offset at room temperature and offset drift. We searched for the best geometry that would minimize the offset and its corresponding drift. The tar ...

Metal oxide nanoparticles and their applications (e.g. in nano-electronics, nano-optics or drug delivery) have seen a growing interest in the past decades. Traditional procedures to synthesize, functionalize and integrate nanoparticles in devices mostly ha ...
The manner in which 90. ferroelectric-ferroelastic domains respond to changes in temperature has been mapped in BaTiO3 single crystals using atomic force microscopy. Domain periodicity remains unaltered until approximately 2 degrees C below the Curie tempe ...
Like photonic crystals have revolutionized the way of manipulating optical waves at the sub-micron scale, phononic crystals have more recently played similar decisive role for sound waves, or more generally elastic waves. Then, the idea of coupling light a ...
