Quarter-Wavelength Two-Section Coaxial Stepped Impedance Resonators for Harmonics Suppression in Tx Bandpass Filters by Alexandre Bonizec, Jessica Benedicto, Jean-Francois Favennec, Eric Rius, Christophe Goujon

“…It is therefore possible to design a filter for which the harmonic frequencies of the resonators are not the same, leading to destructive recombinations in the attenuated band. This is illustrated through the design of a 6th order narrowband L-band bandpass filter with controlled attenuation up to <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$6.6\times $ </tex-math></inline-formula> F0 and a multipactor threshold of around 30 W. …”

Electroacupuncture Treatment Alleviates the Remifentanil-Induced Hyperalgesia by Regulating the Activities of the Ventral Posterior Lateral Nucleus of the Thalamus Neurons in Rats by Hong-Yan Zhao, Ling-Yu Liu, Jie Cai, Yan-Jun Cui, Guo-Gang Xing

“…Moreover, 2 Hz-EA reversed the RF-induced decrease both in PWT and PWL of rats and also abrogated the RF-induced augmentation of the spontaneous neuronal activity and the power spectral density (PSD) of the theta band oscillation in VPL LFP. These results suggested that 2 Hz-EA attenuates the remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia via reducing the excitability of VPL neurons and the low-frequency (theta band) oscillation in VPL LFP.…”
