NIR-II-excited off-on-off fluorescent nanoprobes for sensitive molecular imaging in vivo by Yufu Tang, Yuanyuan Li, Chunxu He, Zhen Wang, Wei Huang, Quli Fan, Bin Liu

“…As a proof-of-concept study, we herein report a near-infrared-II (NIR-II, 1.0-1.7 μm) light-excited “off-on-off” NIR-II fluorescent probe (NDP). It has near-ideal zero initial probe fluorescence but can turn on its NIR-II fluorescence in liver cancer tissues and then turn off the fluorescence again upon migration from cancer to normal tissues to minimize background interference. …”

Novel multi-rate multicast congestion control algorithm by ZHANG Deng-yin, WANG Qian-qian, LI Jun, WANG Ru-chuan

“…A novel congestion control mechanism based on packet-bunch probe and TCP throughput formula（PTMCC） was proposed.This receiver-driven multi-rate multicast congestion control mechanism probes available bandwidth by packet-bunch and gets TCP-friendly rate by TCP throughput formula.A new rate adjustment algorithm was also designed.Simulation results show that the PTMCC make good performance on convergence,TCP-friendliness and response to congestion.…”

A Precessing-Coin-like Rotary Actuator for Distal Endoscope Scanners: Proof-of-Concept Study by Nirvana Gharib, Mohammad Reza Yousefi Darestani, Kenichi Takahata

“…This scanner uses a magnetic rotor designed to have a mirror surface on its backside, being electromagnetically driven to roll around the cone-shaped hollow base to create a motion just like a precessing coin. An optical probing beam directed from the probe’s optic fiber is passed through the hollow cone to be incident and bent on the back mirror of the rotating inclined rotor, circulating the probing beam around the scanner for full 360° sideway imaging. …”
