No full textCharacterization of Optical Fast Transition-Edge Sensors With Optimized Fiber Coupling
No full textEnergy resolution (Delta E), recovery time (tau(eff)), and quantum efficiency (QE) are some of the most important single photon-counting detector parameters. New applications in the quantum optics field place extreme demand on detector performances that go beyond the capabilities of established single-photon detectors. Unfortunately, it is hard to reach best results for all these parameters at the same time. Concerning transition-edge sensors (TESs) as single photon detectors, Delta E and tau(eff) are directly and inversely proportional to the transition temperature T-c, respectively. Moreover, the geometrical optical coupling between illuminating fiber and detector, the device material and the characteristics of the optical cavity or the antireflection coating, drastically influence the QE and in some cases also the Delta E. Previous TESs fabricated by Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca Metrologica were characterized by very high energy resolution (0.18 eV) but high tau(eff) and low QE. In this work, we present a Ti/Au TES with higher T-c (300 mK) that, using the optical alignment system implemented by AIST, shows an optimization of these important parameters, energy resolution of 0.26 eV, recovery time of 186 ns, and a quantum efficiency of 50% without using any optical structure deposited on the detector

The virtues of Fukuda laboratory of crystal growth
No full textAbstractThe author, dealing with crystal growth of II–VI, IV–VI and III–V compounds for more than 25 years, describes his impressions on the state of art of the basic research in the field of bulk growth of electronic materials in Japan, obtained during his stay from 1993 to 1994 as invited professor at the laboratory of Professor Tsuguo Fukuda at the Institute for Materials Research of Tohoku University in Sendai. He learned that the future generations of electronic and optical devices require original ideas and unconventional steps towards new bulk crystal growth technologies combined with a close teamwork between academic laboratories and industry
[5-HT1A gene polymorphisms contributed to antidepressant response in major depression].
No full textVariability in antidepressant response is due to genetic and environmental factors. Among genetic factors, the ones controlling for availability of the drug at the target site are interesting candidates. Rs6295C/G SNP in the 5-HT1A gene (HTR1A) has been found to affect the expression and function of HTR1A. In fact rs6295C/G is in strong linkage disequilibrium with other polymorphisms of HTR1A suggesting that those functional effects could be associated with polymorphisms other than or together with the synonymous rs6295C/G. In the present study we examined the possible association of a panel of markers in strong linkage disequilibrium of HTR1A with SSRI/SNRI response in 137 Japanese major depression subjects followed for 6 weeks. We observed a significant association of better response to antidepressant in rs10042486C/C (P < 0.0001), rs6295G/G (P < 0.0001) and rs1364043T/T (P = 0.018) genotype carriers, independently from clinical variables. Furthermore minor allele homozygous carriers in all these 3 SNPs were associated with treatment response by various assessments such as HAM-D score change over time (P = 0.001), week 2 (P < 0.0001), 4 (P = 0.007), and 6 (P = 0.048) as well as response rate (P = 0.0005) and remission rate (P = 0.004). We also pointed out the genotyping mis-definition of rs6295C/G in the previous four papers
