Moreover, the results indicated that compared with the Tm + overexpression (Oe)-negative control (NC) group, the Tm + Oe-Dancr group displayed decreased apoptosis, but enhanced ERS and autophagy to restore cellular homeostasis. Compared with the Tm + Oe-NC group, the Tm + Oe-Dancr group decreased the ratio of apoptotic cells, decreased expression…[Read more]

A simple thermal annealing at 150◦C followed by exposure to air ambient conditions in epitaxial ZnO thin films produces a photoconductivity enhancement and a reduction of the energy gap. The first effect is related to a release of carriers from bulk traps while the second is caused by a gradual adsorption of species on the film surface which i…[Read more]
