ate equations could be useful. This finding suggests that sitting REE and SMR can be easily estimated from individual characteristics and applied in clinical settings.Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting has been studied extensively as an environmentally friendly technology for hydrogen production using solar energy. WO3is considered a promising semiconducting material for photoanodes due to its high electron mobility, good hole diffusion length, and chemical stability. Periodic nanostructures of WO3have been investigated for enhancing the PEC performance of WO3-based photoanodes. In this study, facile fabrication of periodic nanostructures of WO3was achieved using reverse nanoimprint lithography, and the multilayer stacking of nanopatterned WO3film was also confirmed. The multilayer nanopatterned WO3films were used as photoanodes for PEC water splitting. The performance of the fabricated photoanode in PEC was 2 times higher than that of planar WO3film due to its higher light absorbance and lower charge transfer resistance.In practice, modifying the fundamental properties of low-dimensional materials should be realized before incorporating them into nanoscale devices. In this paper, we systematically investigate the nitrogen (N) doping and oxygen vacancy (OV) effects on the electronic and magnetic properties of the beryllium oxide (BeO) monolayer using first-principles calculations. Pristine BeO single layer is a non-magnetic insulator with an indirectK-Γ gap of 5.300 eV. N doping induces a magnetic semiconductor nature, where the spin-up and spin-down band gaps depend on the dopant concentration and N-N separation. Creating one OV leads to the energy gap reduction of 31.06% with no spin-polarization, which is due to the abundant 2p electrons of the Be atoms nearest the OV site. The further increase to two OVs and varying the OV-OV distance affect the band gap values, however the spin independence is retained. The magnetic semiconducting behavior is also obtained by the simultaneous N doping and OV presence. Calculations reveal significant magnetization of the BeO@1N, BeO@2N-n, BeO@NOV-nsystems, which is produced mainly by the spin-up N-2p state. Except for the BeO@NOV-1 and BeO@NOV-2, whose magnetic properties are created by the spin-up 2p state of the Be atoms closest to the OV site. The variation of the N-N and N-OV distances keeps the ferromagnetic ordering in the BeO@2N and BeO@NOV layers. Results presented herein may propose efficient methods to artificially modify the physical properties of BeO monolayer, leading to the formation of novel two-dimensional (2D) materials for optoelectronic and spintronic applications.An ordered, crack-free array of anatase TiO2nanotubes were prepared via anodization and annealing at 550 °C. Oxygen vacancies are known to improve photocatalytic activity in TiO2and were introduced using a facile low vacuum annealing. Stoichiometric and nonstoichiometric films were followed by a conformal Pt deposition at 250 °C using atomic layer deposition resulting in a current rectifying device, or Schottky diode. Here, we investigated the current-voltage effects of a post thermal treatment using 350 °C and 400 °C. This paper presents reproducible improvements in the charge transport behavior after a 350 °C post-fabrication annealing process. Oxygen vacancies resulted in the formation of a shunt resistance behavior of 105Ω and no overall performance improvements compared to stoichiometric films. Additionally, thermal treatments offered trap-based shifts from multiple trap distributions to a single trap distribution. This work hereby provides valuable experimental observations into understanding the effects of oxygen vacancies and effectively modifying the electronic properties of a conformal Pt/TiO2-xnanostructured junction using a facile post-thermal treatment.Purpose.Accurate localization and labeling of vertebrae in computed tomography (CT) is an important step toward more quantitative, automated diagnostic analysis and surgical planning. In this paper, we present a framework (called Ortho2D) for vertebral labeling in CT in a manner that is accurate and memory-efficient.Methods. Ortho2D uses two independent faster R-convolutional neural network networks to detect and classify vertebrae in orthogonal (sagittal and coronal) CT slices. The 2D detections are clustered in 3D to localize vertebrae centroids in the volumetric CT and classify the region (cervical, thoracic, lumbar, or sacral) and vertebral level. A post-process sorting method incorporates the confidence in network output to refine classifications and reduce outliers. Ortho2D was evaluated on a publicly available dataset containing 302 normal and pathological spine CT images with and without surgical instrumentation. Labeling accuracy and memory requirements were assessed in comparison to other recently r consumption, permitting further performance boosts via application to high-resolution CT.At the Belgian Nuclear Research Centre (SCK CEN) more than 850 employees advance the peaceful applications of ionizing radiation through research, services and education and training. Several initiatives are taken to guarantee a safe working environment, one of them being a compulsory introductory safety training for all new employees, followed by refresher courses. With the objective to increase the flexibility for the participants, and to optimize the teaching time of lecturers, the training format is adapted from face-to-face training to blended learning in which a significant amount of online learning is introduced. To appraise the perception and effectiveness of the original face-to-face training and the newly developed e-learning modules, and to compare both, information is gathered on two levels. Firstly, to monitor the perception of the participants regarding the face-to-face and e-learning formats an online questionnaire was launched. Dihydroethidium in vitro Secondly to evaluate the knowledge gain (difference between pre- and post-test results), the participants were requested to answer the same set of technical/scientific questions before and after the training. Results of the perception study show that the e-learning format was well received by the learners. For both learning formats an overall knowledge gain was noticed. The highest knowledge gain was noticed for the e-learning format. The results on perception and effectivity of the e-learning format confirm the further use of this format.
