Strain and charge co-mediated magnetoelectric coupling are expected in ultra-thin ferromagnetic/ferroelectric multiferroic heterostructures, which could lead to significantly enhanced magnetoelectric coupling. It is however challenging to observe the combined strain charge mediated magnetoelectric coupling, and difficult in quantitatively distinguish these two magnetoelectric coupling mechanisms. We demonstrated in this work, the quantification of the coexistence of strain and surface charge mediated magnetoelectric coupling on ultra-thin Ni0.79Fe0.21/PMN-PT interface by using a Ni0.79Fe0.21/Cu/PMN-PT heterostructure with only strain-mediated magnetoelectric coupling as a control. The NiFe/PMN-PT heterostructure exhibited a high voltage induced effective magnetic field change of 375 Oe enhanced by the surface charge at the PMN-PT interface. Without the enhancement of the charge-mediated magnetoelectric effect by inserting a Cu layer at the PMN-PT interface, the electric field modification of effective magnetic field was 202 Oe. By distinguishing the magnetoelectric coupling mechanisms, a pure surface charge modification of magnetism shows a strong correlation to polarization of PMN-PT. A non-volatile effective magnetic field change of 104 Oe was observed at zero electric field originates from the different remnant polarization state of PMN-PT. The strain and charge co-mediated magnetoelectric coupling in ultra-thin magnetic/ferroelectric heterostructures could lead to power efficient and non-volatile magnetoelectric devices with enhanced magnetoelectric coupling.
Histologic diagnosis of mycosis fungoides may be difficult, especially in lymph nodes that show changes frequently associated with chronic skin disease. As an alternative approach to diagnosis, we have analyzed the configuration of DNA for the beta T-cell receptor genes in biopsy tissues from 14 patients with mycosis fungoides. Clonal rearrangements of these genes were found in each specimen tht contained histologically unambiguous mycosis fungoides. Clonal rearrangements were also found in seven of nine lymph nodes removed from patients with mycosis fungoides and considered histologically to contain only benign lymphadenopathy. Matching rearrangements of beta T-cell receptor genes were detected in benign lymph nodes and histologically involved tissues when paired specimens were available from the same cases. Our findings provide molecular evidence for the clonal T-cell origin of mycosis fungoides and indicate the high incidence of extracutaneous disease in patients with palpable lymphadenopathy. In addition, this study demonstrates that the detection of rearranged T-cell receptor genes can be a sensitive and practical method for the diagnosis and characterization of T-cell neoplasms.
This large, phase III study demonstrates comparable efficacy of DA Q2W and EA QW. Less frequent dosing offers potential benefits for patients, caregivers and health care providers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
