Transparent Electrochromic Polymers with High Optical Contrast and Contrast Ratio [PDF]
JACS AuColored-to-transmissive electrochromic polymers, known for their wide selection of colors and solution processability, have gained great attraction in thin film electrochromic devices that have entered the market. However, their adoption in the real world is limited due to their limited optical transparency and contrast.

Oblique views of chest radiography from a designed rotation angle recommendation increase the contrast ratio between obscured lesions and surrounding structures [PDF]
Thoracic Cancer, 2019 Background Chest radiography (CXR) is the main tool used to detect pulmonary nodules. Lateral views of CXR are less effective and the aim of our study was to develop a rotation angle recommendation model to obtain the best oblique CXR with significantly ...
