Near 13% Efficient Semitransparent Cu(In,Ga)S2 Solar Cells With Band Gap of 1.6 eV on Transparent Back Contact

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates progress in the development of wide‐bandgap CIGS solar cells featuring a transparent back contact, for the application of top cell in tandem devices. A semitransparent device with a bandgap of 1.6 eV achieved a power conversion efficiency of nearly 13% on an ITO back contact.

Water-holding properties and electrochemical characterization of the soil under the Grand Deliverance Hall of the Chongshan Temple, Taiyuan City, China: providing the basis for preventing groundwater erosion in historic buildings

Heritage Science
Many historic buildings are at serious risk of deterioration due to changes in the moisture content of the soil under the buildings. Based on the typical deterioration problems of the Grand Deliverance Hall and the cultural relics in the hall, this study

Waves of range dynamics and gene flow characterize the biogeographic history of Litsea elongata, a dominant tree in East Asian evergreen broadleaved forests

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Evergreen broadleaved forests (EBLFs) represent an iconic vegetation type in subtropical montane East Asia, but they are experiencing intensifying anthropogenic pressure and increasing habitat fragmentation. Here, using a dominant and widespread tree species characteristic of East Asian EBLFs, we examine its phylogeographic history and evaluate what it

Assessing the potential for insecticide cross‐resistance to a novel insecticide in the Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata) using phenotypic and transcript expression analysis

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Phenotypic and transcriptional responses to imidacloprid and isocycloseram were examined across U.S. populations of the Colorado potato beetle, showing evidence of phenotypic cross‐resistance alongside population‐level variation in detoxification gene expression.

Mimic Grasping: A Modular and Flexible Programming‐by‐Demonstration Robotic Grasping Solution

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Industry 5.0 concept guides the industry to the premise of sustainability, resilience and human‐centric solutions. The last related pillar tries to create solutions to empower the people in production line processes since solutions should be designed to be easy to use and easy to learn without discarding the working people. In this regard,

Analysis of the influence of moisture content on water absorption and suction in soil studies erodibility

, 2010
O estudo da erodibilidade ganha importância quando se tratam de solos localizados em regiões tropicais, caracterizadas por altas pluviosidades e evaporações que dificilmente permitem ao maciço atingir um estado de saturação em campo. A erodibilidade e as

Exploiting Device Deformability for Fluid and Particle Manipulation

Small, EarlyView.
Deformable devices enable fluid and particle manipulation modes that are inaccessible to rigid platforms. This review examines soft materials and architectures that translate controlled deformation into microscale fluid operations such as pumping, valving, mixing, and particle handling.

Clinical periodontal diagnosis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...
