Electron Diffusion Length Effect on Direction of Irradiance in Transparent FAPbBr Perovskite Solar Cells.

Transparent photovoltaics for building integration represent a promising approach for renewable energy deployment. These devices require transparent electrodes to manage transmittance and to ensure proper cell operation. In this study, transparent FAPbBr-based perovskite solar cells optimized via a passivation treatment were demonstrated with average visible transmittance values above 60% and light utilization efficiencies up to 5.

Hypoxia in Human Obesity: New Insights from Inflammation towards Insulin Resistance-A Narrative Review.

Insulin resistance (IR), marked by reduced cellular responsiveness to insulin, and obesity, defined by the excessive accumulation of adipose tissue, are two intertwined conditions that significantly contribute to the global burden of cardiometabolic diseases. Adipose tissue, beyond merely storing triglycerides, acts as an active producer of biomolecules. In obesity, as adipose tissue undergoes hypertrophy, it becomes dysfunctional, altering the release of adipocyte-derived factors, known as adipokines.

Unravelling the Role of Structural Factors in the Luminescence Properties of Persulfurated Benzenes.

Room temperature phosphorescence rarely occurs from pure organic molecules, especially in the solid-state. A strategy for the design of highly emissive organic phosphors is still hard to predict, thus impeding the development of new functional materials with the desired optical properties. Herein, we analyze a family of alkyl and aryl-substituted persulfurated benzenes, the latter representing a class of organic solid-state triplet emitters able to show very high emission quantum yield at room temperature.

Women Skin Microbiota Modifications during Pregnancy.

Several studies have shown fluctuations in the maternal microbiota at various body sites (gut, oral cavity, and vagina). The skin microbiota plays an important role in our health, but studies on the changes during pregnancy are limited. Quantitative and qualitative variations in the skin microbiota in pregnant woman could indeed play important roles in modifying the immune and inflammatory responses of the host.
