The aim of the present study was to perform a detailed morphological analysis of an injectable platelet rich fibrin after combination with two different particulate hydroxyapatite-based granules, a porous zirconia block, and laser-textured zirconia or titanium surfaces. Blood samples were harvested from three participants to prepare the flowable injectable PRF in contact or not with particulate hydroxyapatite (Hap), bone mineral granules (DBBM), porous zirconia blocks, laser-textured titanium or zirconia surfaces. Optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to evaluate the fibrin network density, fibrin fibers’ diameter, blood cells, and the interaction of PRF with the biomaterials. Histomorphometry of the flowable PRF was also performed using the hematoxylin–eosin staining protocol. Specimens were independently evaluated by two blinded and well-trained researchers in histomorphometry and microscopy. Particulate Hap and DBBM shown different morphological aspects by SEM analyses since DBBM revealed macro- and micro-scale pores while Hap revealed a dense structure. Hydroxyapatite and DBBM granules were entirely embedded by the fibrin-network in the presence of leukocytes and blood platelets. The zirconia porous structured was filled with PRF and its components. Also, the laser-structured zirconia or implant surfaces were entirely coated with the PRF fibrin network embedding leukocytes and blood platelets. Laser-textured titanium surfaces revealed macro- and micro-scale irregularities that increase the surface area and retention of the injectable PRF. Histomorphometric analyses revealed complementary details on the distribution of lymphocytes, red blood cells, and fibrin associated with platelet aggregation. The flowing and viscosity of an injectable platelet rich fibrin provided an agglomeration of synthetic or xenogeneic particulate bone substitutes and the coating of porous zirconia and textured implant surfaces as inspected by scanning electron microsc

NaOsO3 exhibits an unusual metal-insulator transition (MIT) that has been touted as Slater type, though there are observations that do not entirely conform to this typing. Consistent with a Slater transition, the cell volume and crystal symmetry show no change on cooling through the transition, but both a and b axes in this Pbnm orthorhombic perovskite show a clear kink, and the splitting between them enlarges slightly. Since atomic positions, determined by fitting the intensity of state-of-the-art neutron diffraction data, exhibit no anomalies within the measurement uncertainty, the origin of the a−b splitting and the kink in the data have not yet been elucidated. Understanding the origin of these subtle structural changes across the transition temperature may provide understanding about the electronic behavior. In this paper, we connect local structural changes to changes in the lattice parameters through (1) well-established structural modeling and (2) density functional theory (DFT) calculations. This approach successfully reveals a subtle but significant change of the O-Os-O bond angle on cooling through TMIT. A Madelung energy calculation suggests that this bond angle change signals electron localization in the t2g orbital complex, and this is verified by DFT, which shows an electronic transition from itinerant to localized electronic behavior along with the bond angle shift. In this detailed structural study, we add an important though heretofore overlooked element in the microscopic picture of the MIT in NaOsO3.

In this study, a Terahertz (THz) band antenna which can regulate its own resonant frequency without the requirement of manual adjustment is simulated. A polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) substrate is applied onto a rectangular graphene patch antenna. With a voltage potential applied onto the PVDF, the patch antenna can attenuate its frequency by physically changing the shape of the antenna, and in turn its resonant frequency. These antennas are within a 0.1 THz band between 1.32 THz to 1.22 THz measured from a radial bend of a flat surface to r = 75 μm, fitting into a return loss (S11) above -30 dB. Although the return loss did not show consistency, the resonating frequency shifted at a linear rate relative to the cylindrical bending.
