TL;DR: The data indicate that an increase in the abundance of a pro-inflammatory GMB taxon, Escherichia/Shigella, and a reduction in the abundances of an anti-inflammatoryTaxon, E. rectale, are possibly associated with a peripheral inflammatory state in patients with cognitive impairment and brain amyloidosis.

TL;DR: In this paper, different methods for coating SnO2 nanocrystals with a thin layer of an insulating oxide were compared, and the best results were obtained by adding a soluble metal salt.
Abstract: Coating nanocrystalline SnO2 electrodes for dye-sensitized solar cell applications with a thin layer of ZnO, TiO2, ZrO2, MgO, Al2O3, Y2O3, or other insulating oxides was found to improve dye adsorption and increase the sensitized photocurrent. The surface of the oxide coating is more basic than SnO2, which renders dye attachment by its carboxyl groups more favorable. At the same time, the photovoltage and fill factor are strongly enhanced, resulting in much better energy conversion efficiencies. This change is ascribed to inhibition of electron back transfer from SnO2 to the redox electrolyte (I3-) by the insulating oxide. The optimum coating thickness is only a few angstroms, suggesting that electron transfer from the excited dye attached to the oxide surface to the underlying SnO2 occurs by tunneling through the insulator layer. Different methods for coating SnO2 nanocrystals with a thin layer of an insulating oxide were compared. The best results were obtained by adding a soluble metal salt to the SnO2...

TL;DR: Using 2 phase-change memory devices per synapse, a 3-layer perceptron network is trained on a subset of the MNIST database of handwritten digits using a backpropagation variant suitable for NVM+selector crossbar arrays, obtaining a training (generalization) accuracy of 82.2%.
Abstract: Using two phase-change memory devices per synapse, a three-layer perceptron network with 164 885 synapses is trained on a subset (5000 examples) of the MNIST database of handwritten digits using a backpropagation variant suitable for nonvolatile memory (NVM) + selector crossbar arrays, obtaining a training (generalization) accuracy of 82.2% (82.9%). Using a neural network simulator matched to the experimental demonstrator, extensive tolerancing is performed with respect to NVM variability, yield, and the stochasticity, linearity, and asymmetry of the NVM-conductance response. We show that a bidirectional NVM with a symmetric, linear conductance response of high dynamic range is capable of delivering the same high classification accuracies on this problem as a conventional, software-based implementation of this same network.

TL;DR: In this article, localized surface plasmons and their effects on semiconductors, particularly in terms of energy transfer, scattering, and hot electron transfer, are reviewed, and the relevant physics, device geometries, and research progress in this area are discussed.
Abstract: The study of the optoelectronic effects of plasmonic metal nanoparticles on semiconductors has led to compelling evidence for plasmon-enhanced water splitting. We review the relevant physics, device geometries, and research progress in this area. We focus on localized surface plasmons and their effects on semiconductors, particularly in terms of energy transfer, scattering, and hot electron transfer.
