In this work we investigated the thermal power spectrum of the electromagnetic radiation through one-dimensional stacks of alternating negative and positive refractive index layers, arranged as truncated quasiperiodic photonic structures obeying the Fibonacci (FB), Thue–Morse (TM), and double-period (DP) sequences. The thermal radiation power spectra are determined by means of a theoretical model based on a transfer matrix formalism for both normal and oblique incidence geometries, together with Kirchoff’s second law. We studied the radiation spectra by considering the case where both refractive indices of layers A and B are assumed to be a constant, as well as a more realistic case which takes into account the frequency-dependent electric permittivity ϵ and magnetic permeability μ to characterize the negative refractive index n in layer B.

The total interaction energy of the inhibitor Bz-nKRR-H bound to a serine protease of the dengue virus is mainly due to the action of Asn152, Met49, Tyr161, Asp129 and Gly151 (Met84, Met75, Asp81, Asp79 and Asp80) residues at the NS3 (NS2B) subunit.
