A controllable variation of the photoluminescence (PL) intensity of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) via their coupling to plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) is the potential basis for 3 Piece Queen Panel HB w/Storage FB optoelectronic and sensing applications.In this work, the effect of Au NPs on the PL of colloidal CdTe QDs is investigated in solution
Abstract Background Grazing disturbance usually affects floral display and pollination efficiency in the desert steppe, which may cause pollen limitation in insect-pollinated plants.Effective pollination is essential for the reproductive success of insect-pollinated plants and insufficient pollen transfer may result in pollen limitation.Caragana mi
The causes of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are mostly undefined; however, excitotoxic injury and astrogliosis may contribute to motor neuron (MN) degeneration.Group I metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors are over-expressed in reactive astrocytes in ALS, but the functional significance of this over-expression is presently unknown.We examin
Differences in the use of resources by similar species have been related to a reduction in the interspecific competition that allowscoexistence.Also, other factors, such as high availability of resources in the environment, vegetation structure, environmental heterogeneity, reproductive modes, and predation, can influence the use of resources and f
