Operation Limits of Integrated Photo‐Rechargeable Batteries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study elucidates the operational limitations of integrated photo‐rechargeable batteries. We demonstrate that the photo‐charging process is fundamentally restricted not only by material‐to‐material energy level alignment but also by transient capacitive charge accumulation within the cathode framework.

Regional Characteristics of Agriculture in the State of Washington

Regional Characteristics of Agriculture in the State of Washington
ワシントン州の農業は，州内の地形的条件に応じて，コロンビア高原とピュージェット低地とに存在している．コロンビア高原は，カスケード山脈の雨かげに当たる乾燥地域で，東部から東南部にかけての小麦地区，中央部のコロンビア高原灌漑プロジェクトによる灌漑農業地区，高原西部周辺の中規模河谷の果樹地区等から構成されている．ピュージェット低地には，野菜作や酪農を主体とする都市近郊農業の発達がみられる．農業経営は，ピュージェット低地の都市近郊農場やコロンビア高原の灌漑農場を中心とする多数の小規模農場と，コロンビア高原の小麦農場・牧牛農場を中心とする巨大農場の両極が存在する．農業生産は，畜牛と小牛・果実・酪農・小麦・野菜の5部門が中心をなしている．全国的に高い地位を占める農産物は，リンゴとホップである．リンゴ ...

Electrically Coded Retinomorphic Spectrophotodetector

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐powered retinomorphic pyro‐photodetector is demonstrated that avoids machine‐learning post‐processing and covers 365–940 nm. Electrostatic balancing of built‐in potential produces an electrical wavelength code, delivering <3 nm wavelength decoding accuracy with ∼46 µs response.

Empowering Agricultural Workers Through Community Health Worker-Led Pesticide Safety Workshops in Washington State

Health Services Research and Managerial Epidemiology
Background It is difficult to reach migrant or refugee agricultural workers about pesticide exposure prevention. Here, we describe a community health worker (CHW)-led pesticide exposure prevention workshop and the impact of this program among migrant and refugee workers in Washington state. Methods A focus group of migrants and refugees participated in
