Inducing and tuning Kondo screening in a narrow-electronic-band system.

ABSTRACT: Although the single-impurity Kondo physics has already been well understood, the understanding of the Kondo lattice where a dense array of local moments couples to the conduction electrons is still far from complete. The ability of creating and tuning the Kondo lattice in non-f-electron systems will be great helpful for further understanding the Kondo lattice behavior. Here we show that the Pb intercalation in the charge-density-wave-driven narrow-electronic-band system 1T-TaS₂ induces a transition from the insulating gap to a sharp Kondo resonance in the scanning tunneling microscopy measurements. It results from the Kondo screening of the localized moments in the 13-site Star-of-David clusters of 1T-TaS₂. As increasing the Pb concentration, the narrow electronic band derived from the localized electrons shifts away from the Fermi level and the Kondo resonance peak is gradually suppressed. Our results pave the way for creating and tuning many-body electronic states in layered narrow-electronic-band materials.

Project description:Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory and hyperproliferative immune-mediated skin disorder. Narrow-band UVB (NB-UVB) phototherapy is a convenient first-line treatment of psoriasis, though the mechanisms underlying its efficacy have not been completely elucidated. In order to improve our understanding of NB-UVB phototherapy, gene expression profiling was used to characterize gene expression in lesional epidermis from psoriasis patients undergoing NB-UVB phototherapy. Increased expression of melanogenesis pathway genes was observed to be the earliest response. At the end of treatment, genes involved in diverse biological processes were affected, such as pigmentation, cell adhesion, ectodermal development and metabolism. The relationship between gene expression and treatment outcome was further studied using Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA). Gene ontology analysis showed that genes responding to phototherapy and highly correlated to treatment outcome were involved in oxidation reduction, growth and mitochondria organization. In particular SPATA18, a key regulator of mitochondria quality, was found to be significantly downregulated in psoriasis, and its upregulation following phototherapy was required for optimal clinical improvement. Our data suggest that oxidation reduction is a critical event for the resolution of psoriatic plaques. Twelve patients diagnosed with plaque type psoriasis were recruited to the study. NB-UVB irradiation was administered to the whole body two to three times a week. Treatment comprising approximately 24 sessions was given during two to three months. A total of six 4 mm diameter punch biopsies were taken from lesions on each psoriasis patient: two prior to UV treatment (pre-UV), two at the middle stage of UV treatment (after about one month of treatment, mid-UV) and two before the last treatment session (post-UV). Twelve healthy age-, sex- and skin type-matched volunteers were also recruited and two punch biopsies were taken from the buttocks. RNA was extracted from Laser capture microdissected epidermis.
