A thorough discussion of the various features of the photoluminescence spectra of undoped,
p‐doped and n‐doped Al x Ga 1−x As (0≤x≤1) alloys is given. This review covers spectral …

We demonstrate optical orientation in Ge/SiGe quantum wells and study their spin properties.
The ultrafast electron transfer from the center of the Brillouin zone to its edge allows us to …

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) binds to a family of G-protein coupled receptors termed Y 1 , Y 2 , Y 3
, Y 4 , Y 5 , and y 6 . The use of various receptor subtype-selective agonists and antagonists …

Direct-gap and indirect-gap transitions in strain-compensated Ge/SiGe multiple quantum
wells with Ge-rich SiGe barriers have been studied by optical transmission spectroscopy and …

GR231118, BW1911U90, Bis(31/31′){[Cys 31 , Trp 32 , Nva 34 ] neuropeptide Y(31–36)} (T-190)
and [Trp–Arg–Nva–Arg–Tyr] 2 -NH 2 (T-241) are peptide analogs of the C-terminus of …

We have previously shown [Cys-Trp-Arg-Nva-Arg-Tyr-NH 2 ] 2 , 1, to be a moderately selective
neuropeptide Y (NPY) Y 4 receptor agonist. Toward improving the selectivity and potency …

The neuropeptide Y (NPY) Y 5 receptor has been proposed to mediate several physiological
effects of NPY, including the potent orexigenic activity of the peptide. However, the lack of …

Galanin mediates diverse physiological functions in digestive, endocrine, and central nervous
systems through G‐protein‐coupled receptors. Two galanin receptors have been cloned …

A series of pyrazoloquinoline analogs have been synthesized and shown to bind to PDE10
with high affinity. From the SAR study and our lead optimization efforts, compounds 16 and …

Spin orientation of photoexcited carriers and their energy relaxation are investigated in bulk
Ge by studying spin-polarized recombination across the direct band gap. The control over …
