Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.A Te2Se/Si heterojunction designed through atomistic simulations reduces oxide‐related traps, dark current, and noise compared with pure tellurium devices. This CMOS‐compatible platform enables short‐wave infrared detection and high‐contrast imaging in a 14 × 14 array, highlighting a scalable strategy for robust, low‐noise SWIR photodetectors and image

Urban Parks and their Cooling Potential: Evaluating how Park Characteristics Affects Land Surface Temperature [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information SciencesUrbanization significantly alters city landscapes, exacerbating the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect, where cities experience significantly higher temperatures compared to their rural surroundings due to impervious surfaces and heat emissions.

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2018 City parks, built during the Soviet period, do not meet the requirements. Parks form the culture of the city and affect the physical and spiritual health of a person. Designing parks that meet the requirements is an important task, the solution of which involves a number of functional and town-planning tasks.
