Measurement of Mass Attenuation Coefficients for Some Potassium Compounds

Bilecik Şeyh Edebali Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi, 2019
In this study, the mass attenuation coefficients of some potassium compounds (KH 2 PO 4 , KNO 3 , K 2 S 2 O 8 , KOH, K 2 HPO 4 , K 2 SO 4 , KCl, KIO 3, and KI) have been measured by using Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer (EDXRFS) and a high-resolution Si(Li) detector.

Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.

Strain‐Programmable Luminescent Adhesive Patch With Tartrazine‐Mediated Optical Skin Clearing for Photochemical Tissue Bonding

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We propose a suture‐complementary approach that integrates optical skin clearing with a strain‐programmable luminescent adhesive patch. Hyaluronic acid promotes transdermal delivery of tartrazine to improve optical clearing and stabilizes its interaction with a photosensitizer. Optical clearing increases the penetration depth of visible light into skin,

Beyond the Edge: Charge‐Transfer Excitons in Organic Donor‐Acceptor Cocrystals

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Complex excitonic landscapes in acene–perfluoroacene cocrystals are unveiled by polarization‐resolved optical spectroscopy and many‐body theory. This systematic study of a prototypical model system for weakly interacting donor–acceptor compounds challenges common views of charge‐transfer excitons, providing a refined conceptual framework for ...
