High-detectivity ultraviolet photodetectors based on laterally mesoporous GaN (2017)
Journal Article
Liu, L., Yang, C., Patanè, A., Yu, Z., Yan, F., Wang, K., Lu, H., Li, J., & Zhao, L. (2017). High-detectivity ultraviolet photodetectors based on laterally mesoporous GaN. Nanoscale, 24, https://doi.org/10.1039/c7nr01290j

Photodetectors for the ultraviolet (UV) range of the electromagnetic spectrum are in great demand for several technologies, but require the development of novel device structures and materials. Here we report on the high detectivity of UV photodetect... Read More about High-detectivity ultraviolet photodetectors based on laterally mesoporous GaN.

Simple bounds on fluctuations and uncertainty relations for first-passage times of counting observables (2017)
Journal Article
Garrahan, J. P. (2017). Simple bounds on fluctuations and uncertainty relations for first-passage times of counting observables. Physical Review E, 95(3), Article 032134. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreve.95.032134

Recent large deviation results have provided general lower bounds for the fluctuations of time-integrated currents in the steady state of stochastic systems. A corollary are so-called thermodynamic uncertainty relations connecting precision of estima...

Functional neuroimaging predictors of self-reported psychotic symptoms in adolescents (2017)
Journal Article
Bourque, J., Spechler, P. A., Potvin, S., Whelan, R., Banaschewski, T., Bokde, A. L., Bromberg, U., Büchel, C., Quinlan, E. B., Desrivières, S., Frouin, V., & Gowland, P. (2017). Functional neuroimaging predictors of self-reported psychotic symptoms in adolescents. American Journal of Psychiatry, 174(6), 566-575. https://doi.org/10.1176/appi.ajp.2017.16080897

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the neural correlates of psychotic-like experiences in youth on measures of inhibitory control, reward anticipation and emotion processing. A secondary aim was to test whether these neuro-functional correlat... Read More about Functional neuroimaging predictors of self-reported psychotic symptoms in adolescents.

Accessible biometrics: a frustrated total internal reflection approach to imaging fingerprints (2017)
Journal Article
Smith, N. D., & Sharp, J. S. (2017). Accessible biometrics: a frustrated total internal reflection approach to imaging fingerprints. Science and Justice, 57(3), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scijus.2017.03.003

Fingerprints are widely used as a means of identifying persons of interest because of the highly individual nature of the spatial distribution and types of features (or minuta) found on the surface of a finger. This individuality has led to their wid... Read More about Accessible biometrics: a frustrated total internal reflection approach to imaging fingerprints.

³¹P magnetization transfer magnetic resonance spectroscopy: assessing the activation induced change in cerebral ATP metabolic rates at 3 T (2017)
Journal Article
Chen, C., Stephenson, M. C., Peters, A., Morris, P. G., Francis, S. T., & Gowland, P. A. (2018). ³¹P magnetization transfer magnetic resonance spectroscopy: assessing the activation induced change in cerebral ATP metabolic rates at 3 T. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 79(1), 22-30. https://doi.org/10.1002/mrm.26663

Purpose: In vivo ³¹P MRS magnetization transfer (MT) provides a direct measure of neuronal activity at the metabolic level. This work aims to use functional ³¹P MRS-MT to investigate the change in cerebral ATP metabolic rates in healthy adults upon r...

We apply deep recurrent neural networks, which are capable of learning complex sequential information, to classify supernovae (code available at https://github.com/adammoss/supernovae). The observational time and filter fluxes are used as inputs to t... Read More about Deep recurrent neural networks for supernovae classification.

Task Workflow Design and its impact on performance and volunteers' subjective preference in Virtual Citizen Science (2017)
Journal Article
Sprinks, J., Wardlaw, J., Houghton, R., Bamford, S., & Morley, J. (2017). Task Workflow Design and its impact on performance and volunteers' subjective preference in Virtual Citizen Science. International Journal of Human-Computer Studies, 104, 50-63. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhcs.2017.03.003

© 2017 The Authors Virtual citizen science platforms allow non-scientists to take part in scientific research across a range of disciplines. What they ask of volunteers varies considerably in terms of task type, variety, user judgement required and u...

Engineering p-n junctions and bandgap tuning of InSe nanolayers by controlled oxidation (2017)
Journal Article

Exploitation of two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) crystals can be hindered by the deterioration of the crystal surface over time due to oxidation. On the other hand, the existence of a stable oxide at room temperature can offer prospects for s...

Galaxy Zoo: star formation versus spiral arm number (2017)
Journal Article

Spiral arms are common features in low-redshift disc galaxies, and are prominent sites of star formation and dust obscuration. However, spiral structure can take many forms: from galaxies displaying two strong ‘grand design’ arms to those with many ‘... Read More about Galaxy Zoo: star formation versus spiral arm number.
