Both singlet and triplet populations of the TADF compound 4CzIPN are quenched upon interaction with dinitrotoluene by photoinduced electron transfer. However, their quenching rate is different, with the triplet excitons being more efficiently quenched due to a combination of their longer lifetime and larger population.

Scent Goes Digital: The Role of Insect Odorant Binding Proteins in Modern Technology
This review delves into bioinspired olfactory biosensors, focusing on insect odorant binding proteins (OBPs) as core elements of hybrid bionic platforms for volatile compound detection. Highlighting the development of the biological electronic nose (BE‐NOSE), it examines current prototypes, outlines advantages over conventional methods, and explores ...

Beyond Moral Outrage: The Role of the Ingroup in Online Condemnations
ABSTRACT Although expressions of condemnation are pervasive on social media and often shape the narratives of traditional news outlets, brands continue to struggle with predicting and managing these responses effectively. To address this challenge, it is crucial to first understand the underlying reasons for such behavior.

Millimeter-wave detection of landmines
Millimeter wave absorption relative to background soil can be used for detection landmines with little or no metal content. At these frequencies, soil and landmine absorb electromagnetic energy differently. Stepped frequency measurements from 20 GHz to 60 GHz were used to detect buried surrogate landmines in the soil.
