Sports concussion on the mild end of the spectrum of TBI has captured the fascination of both the public and media.
Since concussion affects all ages both genders and occurs in all sports being able to make the diagnosis quickly
and accurately is essential. The challenge physicians have in identifying concussion is that the diagnosis is often based on self-reported symptoms.
and accurate care to those who suffer TBI in sports or with daily life activities.
Since concussion can occur without loss of consciousness this can be particularly important in sideline evaluations in athletics

On a separate silicon chip they grow a thin flexible film of silicon nitride upon which they deposit the superconductor niobium nitride in a pattern useful for photon detection.

#High-temperature superconductivity in atomically thin films A research group has succeeded in fabricating an atomically thin,

. While the Tc of bulk Fese is only 8 K(-265°C a signature of higher-Tc superconductivity has been suggested in ultrathin film
The researchers at first fabricated high-quality, atomically thin Fese films Fig. 1, with thickness of between one monolayer (which corresponds to three-atoms thickness) and twenty monolayers (sixty-atoms thickness),
by using the molecular-beam-epitaxy (MBE) method*3. Then they carefully investigated the electronic structure of grown films by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES)* 4 Fig. 2. In the ARPES measurement,
which is direct evidence of the emergence of superconductivity in the films. The researchers found that the Tc estimated from the gap-closing in a monolayer film is surprisingly high (above 60 K),
While multilayer films do not show superconductivity in the as-grown state, the researchers have discovered a novel method to deposit alkali atoms onto the films
and thereby control the electron density in the film. By employing this method the researchers have succeeded in converting non-superconducting multilayer Fese films into high-Tc superconductors with Tc as high as 50 K. The present result gives a great impact to both the basic
and applied researches in superconductors. The researchers have shown clearly how the superconductivity is emerged, enhanced and controlled in atomically thin Fese films.
While the Tc achieved in this study (50-60 K) is still lower than that of the cuprate high-Tc superconductors (highest Tc?
135 K) which caused the"high-Tc fever"in the world 30 years ago, it obviously exceeds the record of other"high-Tc superconductors"such as fullerene (C60) superconductors (Tc 33 K) and Mgb2 (Tc 39k),
