Tailoring optical absorption in silicon nanostructures from UV to visible light: A TDDFT study حسب Hassan, Walid M.I.

"…Our main findings are that: (i) The oscillator strength as a function of length is quadratic at small lengths, and then increases linearly. (ii) The exciton binding energy is seen to decrease by approximately 45% from 0.67 eV to about 0.3 eV with length increase, for a nanostructure with a cross-section diameter of approximately 12 Å. …"

STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL APPROACHES TOWARD ACTIVITY RESTORATION OF NOVEL CYSTATHIONINE BETA-SYNTHASE MUTATIONS حسب AL-SADEQ, DUAA WALID

"…In contrast, all the other CBS mutation studies did not fully retain heme and, when compared to the wild-type enzyme, exhibited more significant impairments in both the canonical cystathionine synthesis and the alternative H2S-producing reactions. This reduced activity is consistent with both in vitro and in silico evidence, which indicates that the studied CBS mutations, except p.K72I, significantly decrease the overall protein's stability, which may represent the underlying cause of their pathogenicity. …"
