Semiconductor nanowires have demonstrated exciting properties for nanophotonics, sensors, energy technologies and end-of-roadmap and beyond-roadmap electronic devices. Fabrication schemes for nanowires are varied, but they fall into three general categorie ...

III-V semiconductor nanowires deterministically placed on top of silicon electronic platform would open many avenues in silicon-based photonics, quantum technologies and energy harvesting. For this to become a reality, gold-free site-selected growth is nec ...

During wound healing, the distribution, availability, and signaling of growth factors (GFs) are orchestrated by their binding to extracellular matrix components in the wound microenvironment. Extracellular matrix proteins have been shown to modulate angiog ...

An overarching computational framework unifying several optical theories to describe the temporal evolution of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) during a seeded growth process is presented. To achieve this, we used the inexpensive and widely available optical exti ...

Nanoscale variations in the composition of an AlxGa1−xAs shell around a GaAs nanowire affect the nanowire functionality and can lead to the formation of localized quantum emitters. These composition fluctuations can be the consequence of variations of crys ...

Transected axons fail to regrow across anatomically complete spinal cord injuries (SCI) in adults. Diverse molecules can partially facilitate or attenuate axon growth during development or after injury1,2,3, but efficient reversal of this regrowth failure ...

Cells need to reliably control their proteome composition to maintain homeostasis and regulate growth. How protein synthesis and degradation interplay to control protein expression levels remains unclear. Here, we combined a tandem fluorescent timer and pu ...

On-site biological hand washing water treatment can improve global access to safe hand washing water, but requires a thorough understanding of the chemical composition of the water to be treated, and an effective treatment strategy. This study first presen ...

Thioredoxins (Trxs) are antioxidant proteins that are conserved among all species. These proteins have been extensively studied and perform reducing reactions on a broad range of substrates. Here, we identified Caulobacter crescentus Trx1 (CCNA_03653; CcTr ...

This thesis is dedicated to the growth and characterization of the optoelectronic properties of III-V semiconductor nanostructures namely nanowires and nanoscale membranes. III-V semiconductors possess promising intrinsic properties like direct band gap, h ...

Controlling the growth direction of nanowires is of strategic importance both for applications where nanowire arrays are contacted in parallel and for the formation of more complex nanowire networks. We report on the existence of tilted InAs nanowires on ( ...

Today, silicon is the most used material in photovoltaics, with the maximum conversion efficiency getting very close to the Shockley-Queisser limit for single-junction devices. Integrating silicon with higher band-gap ternary III-V absorbers is the path to ...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in a severing of axonal connections that leads to permanent sensorimotor deficits. In cases of incomplete injury, rehabilitation paradigms have been reported to be successful in improving behavioral outcome in humans with S ...
