A reduced signal-to-noise reduced photodetector has been designed using single-and double-quantum well structures as well as phonon assisted transitions. To increase electron carriers, delta-doping is used in the first single well. In this contribution, the energy levels of the single-well-double-well structure are prescribed by determining the energy spectrum for the interface phonon potentials and...
Background: Despite the devastating impact of mosquito‐borne illnesses on human health, very little is known about mosquito developmental biology, including development of the mosquito visual system. Mosquitoes possess functional adult compound eyes as larvae, a trait that makes them an interesting model in which to study comparative developmental genetics. Here, we functionally characterize visual...
Herein, we consider examine the possibility of photodetectors with reduced signal-to-noise based on a three quantum well structure with one single well and one double well. This structure facilitates photon detection through the following sequence of events: photon absorption, phonon emission, and then photon absorb of a photon having the same wavelength as the first one. Even though this design two...
Survival in the wild requires organismal adaptations to the availability of nutrients. Endosomes and lysosomes are key intracellular organelles that couple nutrition and metabolic status to cellular responses, but how they detect cytosolic ATP levels is not well understood. Here, we identify an endolysosomal ATP-sensitive Na + channel (lysoNa ATP ). The channel is a complex formed...
