Vacuum electrospray deposition for face-on orientation and interface preservation in organic photovoltaics by Younjoo Lee, Junkyeong Jeong, Kwanwook Jung, Jeihyun Lee, Yungsik Youn, Soohyung Park, Hyunbok Lee, Yeonjin Yi

“…In this study, we successfully utilized vacuum electrospray deposition (VESD) to achieve favourable face-on stacking geometries while preserving the integrity of the interfaces in poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT): [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) bulk heterojunction (BHJ) films. Unlike conventional spin-coated (SC) P3HT: PCBM BHJ films, which predominantly exhibit an edge-on orientation, VESD facilitates a beneficial face-on orientation, improving vertical charge transport through enhanced π-π stacking interactions. …”

The sorption of Tebuconazole and Linuron from an Aqueous Environment with a Modified Sludge-Based Biochar: Effect, Mechanisms, and Its Persistent Free Radicals Study by Jingjie Yang, Hongwei Sun, Yucan Liu, Xiaohan Wang, Kamran Valizadeh

“…Both Cr6+ (r = −0.793∗∗/ −0.943∗∗) and humic acid (r = −0.798∗∗/ −0.947∗∗) significantly inhibited the adsorption amount of tebuconazole and linuron onto the biochar. Electron spin resonance signals (ESR) indicated that environmentally persistent radicals (EPFRs) are preferentially formed at lower pyrolysis temperatures and lower transition metal concentrations. …”

Depth-electrode stimulation and concurrent functional MRI in humans: Factors influencing heating with body coil transmission by Hiroyuki Oya, Ralph Adolphs, Matthew A. Howard, J. Michael Tyszka

“…We report a series of temperature measurements conducted in human brain phantoms at two independent imaging centers to characterize factors effecting RF heating of electrically long leads with body coil transmission at 3 Tesla for temporal RMS RF transmit fields (B1+rms) up to 3.5 µT including multiband echo planar imaging and 3D T2w turbo spin echo imaging. Under all conditions tested, with one exception, the temperature rise measured immediately adjacent to electrode contacts in a head-torso phantom with body coil RF transmission was less than 0.75 °C. …”

Gemological and Spectral Characteristics of Gem-Quality Blue Gahnite from Nigeria by Yifang Chen, Junhao Zheng, Mingmei Lu, Ziqi Liu, Zhengyu Zhou

“…The UV-vis absorption spectra located at 444 nm and 489 nm are the most obvious, which are caused by the d-d electron leap of TFe2+ (5E ⟶ 5T2), and the blue-gray tones of the samples are mainly caused by the spin-forbidden electronic transitions in TFe2+ and MFe2+ ↔ MFe3+; the weak absorption peak at 609 nm was determined to be associated with Co2+ by derivative spectra.…”

A Dynamic Design Methodology for Large-Scale Complex Nonlinear Systems Based on Orthogonal Decomposition Technique by Qi-Bin Wang, Si-Yang Piao, Ming-Wei Piao, Peng Dang, Qiu-Ze Li, Jing-Ying Ren

“…The researching viewpoint of hunting kinematics makes the investigations on the geometric nonlinearity of the wheel-rail contacts contrary to the hypothesis of small creepage and no spin. Since the technical prototype of German ICE3 serial bogies has the design default of the primary hunting phenomenon, the improved design of the wheel-rail relationship has simply abandoned the high-quality technical resources of wheel-rail matching conditions at low conicity. …”
