The expression of the analytical solution contains only some one-dimensional integral which can be calculated easily. Numerical results show that Mie series of plane wave scattering by an isotropic LHM sphere is a special case of the present method. Some numerical results of electromagnetic scattering of a uniaxial anisotropic sphere by a plane wave are given.展开更多

Both the magnetic and nonmagnetic impurities are assumed to be randomly distributed on small fractions of the sites, while the nonmagnetic impurities have a strong potential yielding a unitary-limit scattering. We derive in details the expressions of diffusive π modes in the retarded-retarded (or advanced- advanced) channel, which result from the existence of particle-hole symmetry. The quantum interference correction to the density of states is calculated. While the magnetic-impurity scattering suppresses the quantum correction from π-mode cooperon, it does not affect the contribution of π-mode diffuson.展开更多

Methods: A total of 34 Wistar rats were divided into 8 groups randomly: Non-operated group (n = 4) , sham-operated group (n = 6) , and operated group, receiving right middle cerebral artery occlusion ( MCAO) for 15 and 30 min, and 1,3,6 and 24 h respectively (6 subgroups, n =4). All groups were imaged with DWI and T2WI. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) , relevant density (rd) and relevant area (rs) of hyperintensity of the lesions on DWI and T2WI were measured. Relevant ADC (rADC) , relevant area of immunohistochemical staining for AQP4 (rS) , optical density of AQP4 hybridization (a) were calculated. After that the animals were sacrificed and perfused at different time intervals, correlations between DWI, ADC, and AQP4 expression (rS, a) in ischemic tissue was made. Results: There was a significant correlation between rS and a ( r = 0. 949 ). The abnormal high intensity was found in DWI of the ipsilateral MAC territory at 15 min after MCAO. The ADC value decreased quickly within 1 h after MCAO, the rd and rs of DWI increased rapidly and the expression of AQP4 increased quickly, too. However, there was no change on the T2WI. In the period of time (15 min - 1 h) , the AQP4 expression( a) had a strong relation to the rd and rs( r = 0. 914, 0. 895). With the progress of the time, the ADC value of MCAO decreased further to (2.1±0.6)×10-4 mm2/s at 3 h, and then followed an increased slowly till 24 h, but the rd and the rs as well as the expression of AQP4 continuously increased during the stage. The T2WI detected the lesion at the average time (1.4 h) after MCAO, and the rs of T2WI was less than that of DWI at the same time in the same layer (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The results imply that high expression of AQP4 may play a key role in ischemic brain edema. It is, certainly, one of the important reasons of the DWI molecular biologic mechanism in the cerebral ischemia.展开更多

The coexistence of Fe and Ag in the same nanostructure, for instance, is interesting for nanophotonics, nanomedicine, and catalysis. However, alloying of Fe and Ag is inhibited for thermodynamic reasons. Here, we describe the synthesis of Fe-doped Ag NPs via laser ablation in liquid solution, bypassing thermodynamics constraints. These NPs have an innovative structure consisting of a scaffold of face-centered cubic metal Ag alternating with disordered Ag-Fe alloy domains, all arranged in a truffle-like morphology. The Fe-Ag NPs exhibit the plasmonic properties of Ag and the magnetic response of Fe-containing phases, and the surface of the Fe-Ag NPs can be functionalized in one step with thiolated molecules. Taking advantage of the multiple properties of Fe-Ag NPs, the magnetophoretic amplification of plasmonic properties is demonstrated with proof-of-concept surface-enhanced Raman scattering and photothermal heating experiments. The synthetic approach is of general applicability and virtually permits the preparation of a large variety of multi-element NPs in one step.展开更多
