CsBiAgI is a lead-free inorganic perovskite material exhibits exceptional photoelectric characteristics and great environmental stability. HTL/CsBiAgIis/ETLs solar cells was investigated numerically by using SCAPS 1-D Capacitance Simulator. IGZO, TiO, WO, MoO, and SnO have been chosen as ETLs, while CuO, CuI, and MoO are as HTLs.

Introduction Serum urea and creatinine levels are the most commonly recognized parameters for evaluating renal impairment in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Therefore, this study evaluated the correlation between urea and creatinine levels and thiamin levels in patients with type 1 DM (T1DM) and type 2 DM (T2DM). Methods This multi-center, cross-sectional study was conducted at diabetic outpatient clinics in Karachi.

The plasmonic properties of rod-shaped Au nanoparticles make them promising for numerous applications. The synthesis recipes for Au nanorods are well established and their longitudinal plasmon peak can be tuned over a wide wavelength range. Herein, we demonstrate that the longitudinal plasmon peak of gold NWs (NWs), which are bent nanorods, can be finely tuned in the near-infra-red region.

Article Synopsis
  • Nanomaterial-based gas sensors, specifically using boron carbide (BC), can analyze breath to help diagnose diseases by detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) like formaldehyde and methanol.
  • The study assesses various properties of VOC adsorption on BC, including adsorption energy and recovery time, using density functional theory.
  • Results indicate that BC can effectively function as a room temperature biosensor for human breath analysis, showcasing a semiconducting nature with minor band gap variations upon VOC adsorption.
