Reflectometric interference spectroscopy (RIfS), which is well-established in the visual regime, measures the optical thickness change of a sensitive layer caused, e.g., by binding an analyte. When operated in the mid-infrared range the sensor provides additional information via weak absorption spectra (fingerprints). The originally poor spectra are magnified by surface-enhanced infrared absorp...

BACKGROUND The purpose of presenting this case is to demonstrate the degree to which the kidney is capable of selectively excreting a massive load of sodium and water when challenged with both of these, without altering the plasma levels of other ions. CASE REPORT An 8-year-old boy was admitted in severe renal failure. Workup demonstrated a high grade obstruction of a single kidney. Following d...

Direct evidence of plasmon-enhanced H2 generation is observed in photocatalytic water reduction by using TiO2 electrospun nanofibers co-decorated with Au and Pt nanoparticles through dual-beam irradiation. The Au/Pt/TiO2 nanofibers exhibit certain activity for H2 generation under single irradiation at 420 nm that excites the defect/impurity states of TiO2. Significantly, when secondary irradiat...
