Ultra‐bright Cd0.27Zn0.73S/7 ML‐ZnS core/shell quantum dots exhibit a photoluminescence quantum yield exceeding 96% and a fourfold enhancement in radioluminescence intensity compared to CsPbBr3. Variable‐temperature photophysical analysis reveals that the narrowband emission originates from direct recombination of edge excitons.

This review critically reassesses our prior hypothesis and proposes a revised anatomical model of the fusion fascia that is broadly applicable to GI cancer surgeries grounded in the principles of mesenteric resection. Our synthesis suggests that the fusion fascia is neither a dense connective tissue membrane nor a remnant of mesothelial fusion, but ...
