Observation of strongly enhanced photoluminescence from inverted cone-shaped silicon nanostructures. [corrected].

abstract：:The transcriptional responses of yeast cells to diverse stresses typically include gene activation and repression. Specific stress defense, citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation genes are activated, whereas protein synthesis genes are coordinately repressed. This view was achieved from comparative transcript...
