Selection of the optimal intensity normalization region for FDG-PET studies of normal aging and Alzheimer's disease.

abstract：:Oxide heterointerfaces are ideal for investigating strong correlation effects to electron transport, relevant for oxide-electronics. Using hot-electrons, we probe electron transport perpendicular to the La₀.₇Sr₀.₃MnO₃ (LSMO)- Nb-doped SrTiO₃ (Nb:STO) interface and find the characteristic hot-electron attenuation lengt...
