Employing High-temperature-grown SrZrO$_3$ Buffer to Enhance the Electron Mobility in La:BaSnO$_3$-based Heterostructures

Kavli Affiliate: Darrell G. Schlom | First 5 Authors: Prosper Ngabonziza, Jisung Park, Wilfried Sigle, Peter A. van Aken, Jochen Mannhart | Summary: We report a synthetic route to achieve high electron mobility at room temperature in epitaxial La:BaSnO$_3$/SrZrO$_3$ heterostructures prepared on several oxide substrates. Room-temperature mobilities of 157, 145, and 143 cm$^2$V$^{-1}$s$^{-1}$ are achieved […]

Wet Compaction to a Blue Nugget: a Critical Phase in Galaxy Evolution

Sharon Lapiner, Avishai Dekel, Jonathan Freundlich, Omri Ginzburg, Fangzhou Jiang | Summary: [[{“value”:”We utilize high-resolution cosmological simulations to reveal that high-redshift galaxies tend to undergo a robust `wet compaction’ event when near a `golden’ stellar mass of $sim 10^{10} M_{odot}$. This is a gaseous shrinkage to a compact star-forming phase, a `blue nugget’ (BN), followed […]

Neuronal Transcriptome Disruption, Tau Accumulation and Synapse Loss in Alzheimer’s Knock-in Mice Require Cellular Prion Protein

Kavli Affiliate: Stephen Strittmatter | Authors: Austin Stoner, Li Fu, LaShae Nicholson, Chao Zheng, Takuya Toyonaga, Joshua Spurrier, Will Laird, Zhengxin Cai and Stephen M. Strittmatter | Summary: Background Cellular prion protein (PrPC) is a high-affinity cell-surface receptor for Amyloid-β oligomers (Aßo). In certain overexpression models of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), pharmacology and genetics demonstrate its […]
