'Surprising' hidden activity of semiconductor material spotted by researchers

New research suggests that materials commonly overlooked in computer chip design actually play an important role in information processing, a discovery that could lead to faster and more efficient electronics. Using advanced imaging techniques, an international team led by Penn State researchers found that the material that a semiconductor chip device is built on, called the substrate, responds to changes in electricity much like the semiconductor on top of it. The researchers worked with the semiconductor material, vanadium dioxide, which they said shows great potential as an electronic switch. They also studied how vanadium dioxide interacts with the substrate material titanium dioxide and said they were surprised to discover that there seems to be an active layer in the substrate that behaves similarly to the semiconductor material on top of it when the semiconductor switches between an insulator—not letting electricity flow—and a metal—letting electricity flow.

In the Orinoco it occurs on the rocks periodically washed by the floods, and in those parts alone where the stream is rapid; or, as the Indians say, 'the rocks are black where the waters are white.'

When sodium hypochlorite (bleach) solution is added to luminol, a chemical reaction occurs that releases energy in the form of light. This is called chemiluminescence. The bleach solution acts as an oxidizing agent, which means it takes electrons away from the luminol molecule. This causes the luminol molecule to become excited, and it releases the energy as light.

The luminol molecule is made up of two amino groups, a carbonyl group, and an azo group. The amino groups are electron-rich, while the carbonyl group is electron-poor. The azo group is a conjugated system, which means that the electrons in the double bonds can move freely from one atom to another.

When sodium hypochlorite (bleach) solution is added to luminol, the bleach molecules react with the amino groups of the luminol molecule. This reaction takes electrons away from the luminol molecule, which causes the luminol molecule to become oxidized. The oxidized luminol molecule is in an excited state, which means that it has more energy than it normally does.

The excited luminol molecule then releases the extra energy as light. This light is called chemiluminescence. The light emitted by the chemiluminescence reaction is blue because the luminol molecule has a blue fluorescence.

The chemiluminescence reaction between luminol and sodium hypochlorite is catalyzed by the presence of a metal ion, such as iron or copper. The metal ion helps to stabilize the excited state of the luminol molecule, which makes it more likely to release the extra energy as light.

The chemiluminescence reaction is very sensitive to impurities, so it is important to use pure chemicals. The reaction can also be affected by the pH of the solution. The optimal pH for the reaction is around 9.

The chemiluminescence reaction between luminol and sodium hypochlorite can be used to detect blood, as the iron in hemoglobin can catalyze the reaction. The reaction is also used in some commercial products, such as glow sticks and emergency lights.

I hope you enjoyed learning about this. ❤️🙏

Of course I love how Benoit Blanc is so shamelessly, fabulously, himself. How he’s gayer than a tree full of monkeys on nitrous oxide [GNU Terry Pratchett]. How he doesn’t hide that his brain is peculiar, for better or for worse. How he picks the cases he likes.

But I also love that in Glass Onion Rian Johnson shows us that Blanc can choose to be himself because he’s protected by his privilege of rich, upper-class, white man.

Which in turn leads me to notice how in both movies Blanc uses his privilege to protect a working-class woman and a Black woman, but he always refuses to be their saviour. He just creates the conditions in which they can choose to be themselves and save themselves—and punish their oppressors.

[Edit: A couple of people pointed out that Marta is actually white, even if the Thrombeys would probably disagree. I’d add that Helen isn’t exactly working-class, she’s simply less rich than the Disruptors shitheads. Anyway: I apologise—I’ve edited the post.]

Engineered MgO nanoparticles: A promising path to synergistic cartilage and bone therapy

In a recent study published in Science Advances, researchers from Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital and others have unveiled a promising approach for treating osteoarthritis (OA) using engineered magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles. Osteoarthritis, a widespread joint disorder affecting millions globally, has long lacked efficient and cost-effective therapeutic solutions. The new method involves targeted regulation of magnesium ions (Mg2+) to address both bone and cartilage issues associated with OA synergistically. This innovation not only demonstrates the potential of magnesium in halting cartilage damage but also showcases the effectiveness of MgO nanoparticles encapsulated in microspheres for sustained release, providing a more convenient and durable treatment option.

Ceramic Membranes are a form of Artificial Membrane made by depositing Colloidal Metal Hydroxide Solutions on porous supports.

Ceramic Membranes are a versatile solution for a wide variety of applications. They are durable and offer a low cost of ownership. Because their pore sizes are so small, they are ideal for bulk processing. A ceramic membrane is an excellent choice for the separation of gases and liquids. Its high permeability allows it to filter large volumes of liquids. It is also easy to install on a manifold.

Artificial membranes consisting of inorganic materials are known as Ceramic Membranes (such as alumina, silicon carbide or some glassy materials). They're employed in liquid filtration membrane activities. The ceramic membrane may be divided into alumina, titania, zirconium oxides, and others based on the material type. Ceramic Membranes are used in a variety of applications, including water and wastewater treatment, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage processing, chemical processing, biotechnology, and more. Ceramic membranes are used in ultrafiltration, microfiltration, nanofiltration, and other technologies. The worldwide ceramic membrane Demand is predicted to increase due to rising demand for ceramic membranes in a variety of applications, such as water and wastewater treatment projects.
