Cooperativity Can Enhance Cellular Signal Detection
Jianmin Sun, Michael Grabe
Most sensory cells use surface receptors to detect environmental stimuli and initiate downstream signaling. Cooperative interactions among sensory receptors is known to play a cruc…
Physical limits on cellular directional mechanosensing
Roland Bouffanais, Jianmin Sun, Dick K. P. Yue
Many eukaryotic cells are able to perform directional mechanosensing by directly measuring minute spatial differences in the mechanical stress on their membranes. Here, we explore…
Effective Magnetic Fields in Graphene Superlattices
Jianmin Sun, H. A. Fertig, L. Brey
We demonstrate that the electronic spectrum of graphene in a one-dimensional periodic potential will develop a Landau level spectrum when the potential magnitude varies slowly in s…
Bilayer Quantum Hall Ferromagnet in a Periodic Potential
Jianmin Sun, Ganpathy Murthy, H. A. Fertig +1
The bilayer quantum Hall system at a total filling of has long resisted explanation in terms of a true counterflow superfluid, though many experimental features can be seen…
