Yang, A.Q. Liu, L.K. Chin, X.M. Zhang, D.P. Tsai, C.L. Lin, C. Lu, G.P. Wang and N.I. Zheludev | | | By controlling the flow or composition of liquids, optofluidics provides numerous possibilities for devices, and so has great potential for transformation optics. Here, a multi-mode optofluidic waveguide is presented, which manipulates light to produce controllable chirped focussing and interference. | | | 31 Jan | Nat Commun 3:651 doi:10.1038/ncomms1662 (2012) | | | Physical sciences Fluids and plasma physics | | | Optical physics | | Abstract | Full Text | PDF (878 kB) |

| Synergistic toughening of composite fibres by self-alignment of reduced graphene oxide and carbon nanotubes OPEN | | | Min Kyoon Shin, Bommy Lee, Shi Hyeong Kim, Jae Ah Lee, Geoffrey M. Spinks, Sanjeev Gambhir, Gordon G. Wallace, Mikhail E. Kozlov, Ray H. Baughman and Seon Jeong Kim | | | Composite fibres made of polymers reinforced by carbon nanotubes are known for their exceptional toughness. Shin et al. make these composites even tougher, by self-aligning carbon nanotubes and reduced graphene oxide flakes within the polymer matrix. | | | 31 Jan | Nat Commun 3:650 doi:10.1038/ncomms1661 (2012) | | | Chemical sciences Materials science | | | Nanotechnology | | Abstract | Full Text | PDF (1,348 kB) |

| Activation of TRPC6 channels is essential for lung ischaemia–reperfusion induced oedema in mice OPEN | | | Norbert Weissmann, Akylbek Sydykov, Hermann Kalwa, Ursula Storch, Beate Fuchs, Michael Mederos y Schnitzler, Ralf P. Brandes, Friedrich Grimminger, Marcel Meissner, Marc Freichel, Stefan Offermanns, Florian Veit, Oleg Pak, Karl-Heinz Krause, Ralph T. Schermuly, Alison C Brewer, Harald H.H.W. Schmidt, Werner Seeger, Ajay M. Shah, Thomas Gudermann, Hossein A. Ghofrani and Alexander Dietrich | | | The signalling cascade involved in lung ischaemia–reperfusion-induced oedema is poorly understood. Using knockout mice, Weissmann et al. propose a model in which reactive oxygen species production by endothelial NOX2 leads to phospholipase C-γ activation, DAG kinase inhibition and subsequent TRPC6 activation. | | | 31 Jan | Nat Commun 3:649 doi:10.1038/ncomms1660 (2012) | | | Biological sciences Biochemistry | | | Cell biology Medical research | | | Molecular biology | | Abstract | Full Text | PDF (1,389 kB) |

| Loss of flight promotes beetle diversification OPEN | | | Hiroshi Ikeda, Masaaki Nishikawa and Teiji Sota | | | The loss of flight in some insect lineages may promote allopatric differentiation and result in a high speciation rate. Here, using the carrion beetle, loss of flight is shown to accelerate allopatric speciation with higher genetic differentiation than for flight-capable species. | | | 31 Jan | Nat Commun 3:648 doi:10.1038/ncomms1659 (2012) | | | Biological sciences Ecology | | | Evolution Zoology | | Abstract | Full Text | PDF (967 kB) |

| Enhanced sea-ice export from the Arctic during the Younger Dryas | | | Christelle Not and Claude Hillaire-Marcel | | | The Younger Dryas cold period is thought to have occurred mainly due to the release of fresh water into the North Atlantic from the glacial Lake Agassiz. Here, sedimentary and geochemical data from the central Arctic Ocean support the hypothesis of a northward route drainage event from Lake Agassiz during the Younger Dryas. | | | 31 Jan | Nat Commun 3:647 doi:10.1038/ncomms1658 (2012) | | | Earth sciences | | | Abstract | Full Text | PDF (719 kB) |
| Time-resolved ultrafast photocurrents and terahertz generation in freely suspended graphene OPEN | | | Leonhard Prechtel, Li Song, Dieter Schuh, Pulickel Ajayan, Werner Wegscheider and Alexander W. Holleitner | | | Graphene's broad bandwidth makes it promising as a photodetector, but common electronics cannot analyse the currents at high frequencies. Here, using photocurrent measurements, laser-induced carrier generation effects in freely suspended graphene and at graphene–metal interfaces are clarified up to 1 THz. | | | 31 Jan | Nat Commun 3:646 doi:10.1038/ncomms1656 (2012) | | | Physical sciences Applied physics | | | Condensed matter Nanotechnology | | | Optical physics | | Abstract | Full Text | PDF (1,822 kB) |
