Measuring Size of Gooseberry Fruits

open access: yesJournal of the American Pomological Society, 1965
In most investigations of a practical nature involving fruit crops, measurements of fruit size are of unique importance because the ultimate aim of the fruit grower is to produce high yields of marketable fruit, an aim which usually depends heavily upon a certain minimum fruit size for achievement. The methods utilized for measurement of this important

Thermodynamic Limits to Molecular Doping in Conjugated Polymers: A Perspective on Phase Behavior and Miscibility

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular doping of conjugated polymers is fundamentally constrained by thermodynamic phase behavior. This Perspective reframes doping efficiency and stability in terms of miscibility limits, binodals, and solvus boundaries, highlighting the role of effective interaction parameters and charge transfer.
