Tailoring Mechanical Reliability in Transparent ZnO-Zincone Thin-Film Electrodes with Organic Interlayer Interfaces and Thickness.

To address the inherent brittleness of conventional transparent conductive oxides, researchers have focused on enhancing their flexibility. This is achieved by incorporating organic films to construct organic-inorganic hybrid layer-by-layer nanostructures, where the interlayer thickness and interface play pivotal roles in determining the properties. These factors are contingent on the type of material, processing conditions, and specific application requirements, making it essential to select the appropriate conditions.

ROBINA: Rotational Orbit-Based Inter-Node Adjustment for Acoustic Routing Path in the Internet of Underwater Things (IoUTs).

The Internet of Underwater Things (IoUTs) enables various underwater objects be connected to accommodate a wide range of applications, such as oil and mineral exportations, disaster detection, and tracing tracking systems. As about 71% of our earth is covered by water and one-fourth of the population lives around this, the IoUT expects to play a vital role. It is imperative to pursue reliable communication in this vast domain, as human beings' future depends on water activities and resources.
