Enhanced Scintillation with Uncorrelated TL and OSL Signals in LiCaAlF6:Eu Nanoparticles Enables Unprecedented Multimodal Radiation Dosimetry

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the coexistence of independent OSL and TL signals, demonstrating that the material preserves TL information even after complete OSL zeroing, enabling a dual dosimetric readout within the same material. Abstract The development of multimodal dosimeters capable of preserving independent luminescent signals is a ...

Light Therapy Alleviates Addiction‐Related Symptoms and Reshapes Habenula and Midbrain Pathways

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates light therapy for treating Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD). Functional MRI (fMRI) data reveal that light therapy enhances brain connectivity, particularly between the habenula and the medial orbitofrontal cortex (mOFC). These changes are associated with reduced withdrawal symptoms and addiction severity, highlighting the ...

Wide‐Range Adaptive Metal Oxide for Hydrogen Sulfide Detection From Earth to Space‐Like Environments

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a gas sensing platform based on Cu‐doped SnO2 microspheres that operates reliably from ambient to space‐like conditions. The sensor maintains performance across vacuum and cryogenic environments, bypassing traditional oxygen‐mediated mechanisms, utilizing direct chemisorption and interfacial charge transfer.
