This study offers an extensive exploration into approaches for cultivating CsPbBr SCs using inverse temperature crystallization (ITC), with a specific focus on seed-induced (method (1)) and nucleation-mediated (method (2)) growth techniques. Our findings reveal that leveraging seed-assisted growth at lower temperatures yields noteworthy enhancements in the material's optical and electrical behaviors, outperforming the outcomes achieved through nucleation-driven growth. Concretely, through the employment of the space charge limited current (SCLC) technique, an evident contrast emerges in the trap-populated threshold voltage between the seed-facilitated crystal (SC) (measuring 0.

A Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) was used for the magnetic measurements and a Metal Hydrogen Reactor (MHR) supplied by a constant current through a coil was used for the hydrogen desorption reaction under the action of a magnetostatic field. Then, the hysteresis cycle, the first magnetization curve, the thermo-magnetization curves and the desorbed hydrogen mass were determined.

A curved partition shape is considered with identical rotating cylinders and an inclined magnetic field, while the right vertical wall moves with a constant speed in the -direction. Numerical simulations are performed by considering various values of Rayleigh number, Hartman number, Darcy number, inclination of the magnetic field, size of the curved partitions, and rotational speeds of the inner cylinders and their vertical locations with the cavity.

At present, we perform a density functional theory (DFT) calculations and a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) evaluation on a series of 1-(4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl) ethan-1-one and 4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-1-carbothioamide derivatives as an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitory activity. We thus propose a virtual screening protocol based on a machine-learning study.
