Micromolar Concentration Affinity Study on a Benchtop NMR Spectrometer with Secondary 13C Labeled Hyperpolarized Ligands

Benchtop NMR is becoming an increasingly important tool, sometimes providing a simple and low-cost alternative to high-field NMR. The Achilles heel of NMR and even more critically of benchtop NMR is its limited sensitivity. However, when combined with hype ...

Metal Doping of Strongly Confined Halide Perovskite Nanocrystals under Ambient Conditions

Emad Oveisi, Aurélien Bornet, Pascal Alexander Schouwink

Halide perovskite nanocrystals are promising materials for optoelectronic applications. Metal doping provides an avenue to boost their performance further, e.g., by enhancing light emission, or to provide additional functionalities, such as nanoscale magne ...

New melphalan derivatives for the treatment of retinoblastoma in combination with thermotherapy

Paul Joseph Dyson, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Aurélien Bornet, Daniel Ortiz Trujillo

Of the different modalities used to treat retinoblastoma, a chemothermotherapeutic regimen combining carboplatin and thermotherapy (also termed focal therapy), and the application of melphalan as a monotherapy, are particularly successful. Some studies ind ...

Controlling Tin Halide Perovskite Oxidation Dynamics in Solution for Perovskite Optoelectronic Devices

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Paul Joseph Dyson, Zhaofu Fei, Aurélien Bornet, Roland Christopher Turnell-Ritson, Guixiang Li

As a leading contender to replace lead halide perovskites, tin-based perovskites have demonstrated ever increasing performance in solar cells and light-emitting diodes (LEDs). They tend to be processed with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solvent, which has been ...

Inhibition of influenza virus infection in mice by pulmonary administration of a spray dried antiviral drug

Francesco Stellacci, Aurélien Bornet, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva

Increasing resistance to antiviral drugs approved for the treatment of influenza urges the development of novel compounds. Ideally, this should be complemented by a careful consideration of the administration route. 6′siallyllactosamine-functionalized β-cy ...

Nonclassical Nucleation and Crystallization of LiNbO3 Nanoparticles from the Aqueous Solvothermal Alkoxide Route

Sandrine Gerber, Aurélien Bornet, Adrian Stefan Gheata

The exact molecular reaction pathway and crystallization mechanisms of LiNbO3 nanoparticles under solvothermal conditions are derived through extensive time- and temperature-resolved experiments allowing to track all the transient molecular and solid speci ...

Ligand Locking on Quantum Dot Surfaces via a Mild Reactive Surface Treatment

Raffaella Buonsanti, Aurélien Bornet, Anna Loiudice, Ona Segura Lecina

At the outermost surface of colloidal QDs are organic surface ligands which dynamically bind and release in solution to control the growth kinetics, control the size/shape of the crystals, passivate surface states, and provide colloidal stability through f ...

An automated system for fast transfer and injection of hyperpolarized solutions

Aurélien Bornet, Jonas Milani

Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (dDNP) has become a hyperpolarization method of choice for enhancing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals. Nuclear spins are polarized in solid frozen samples (in a so-called polarizer) that are subsequently dis ...

Crowding reveals fundamental differences in local vs. global processing in humans and machines

Michael Herzog, Aurélien Bornet, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Oh-Hyeon Choung

Feedforward Convolutional Neural Networks (ffCNNs) have become state-of-the-art models both in computer vision and neuroscience. However, human-like performance of ffCNNs does not necessarily imply human-like computations. Previous studies have suggested t ...
