High‐Mobility and Low Carrier Concentration Transparent Conducting Oxide Rear Contact for Bifacial CIGS Solar Cells

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
This study investigates high‐mobility, low carrier concentration (CC) transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) as back contacts in bifacial Cu (In, Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells. These TCOs enhance rear‐side light absorption in CIGS and external quantum efficiency, improving overall performance by offering high transparency, low reflectance, and maintaining ...

“Steak Dry Aging”: An Innovative Approach to Producing High‐Yield, High‐Quality Dry‐Aged Beef

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated a novel steak dry‐aging (StDA) protocol in which portioned beef steaks were dry‐aged until reaching an average weight loss of 15% and subsequently wet‐aged to achieve a total aging time of either 14 or 28 days. The new protocol was compared with conventional dry aging (DA) for 28 days and unaged controls.

Titanium‐Doped In2O3: A High‐Mobility, Thermally Stable Back Contact for Bifacial Chalcopyrite Solar Cells

Solar RRL, Volume 10, Issue 6, 29 March 2026.
In2O3:Ti is identified as a thermally stable and highly near‐infrared transparent back contact for (Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)Se2 solar cells and modules. Under rear illumination, the short‐circuit current density is improved by ≈ 3 mA/cm2 as compared with a more standard In2O3:Sn back electrode.

Emergent Freestanding Complex Oxide Membranes for Multifunctional Applications

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 16, 17 March 2026.
This review surveys freestanding oxide membranes and covers fabrication and three pathways for studies and devices: strain‐free and strained membranes, and van der Waals‐integrated heterostructures. We show how coupled oxide responses map onto these routes and cross‐couple to expand behaviors.

Regulating TGO Nucleation and Growth of MCrAlX Coatings via Femtosecond Laser Remelting: The Role of Reactive Elements in the Oxidation Resistance

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT MCrAlX coatings are widely used as bond coats in thermal barrier coating systems to protect turbine blades from high‐temperature oxidation. However, their oxidation resistance is often restricted by uncontrolled microstructures, surface roughness, and aggregation of reactive elements (REs). In this study, high‐repetition‐rate femtosecond laser
