Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the perovskite oxides XSnO3 (where X is Ca, Mg, or Sr) and investigates their structural, electronic, and optical properties using density functional theory with the FP-LAPW method.
  • It reveals that XSnO3 compounds have robust crystal structures, with key parameters like lattice constants, band gap, density of states, and optical properties thoroughly analyzed.
  • The findings indicate these compounds possess semi-metallic characteristics and highlight their potential for applications in electronics and optoelectronics.

Gall bladder diaphragm is a rare congenital malformation of the gall bladder, entailing its segmentation in several chambers. Functioning as a non-return valve, it interferes with drainage, leading to gallstone formation and cholecystitis. We are reporting a rare case of acute cholecystitis with a double vesicular diaphragm.

Nanoscale materials with inter-correlation characteristics are fundamental for developing high performance devices and applications. Hence theoretical research into unprecedented two-dimensional (2D) materials is crucial for improving understanding, especially when piezoelectricity is merged with other unique properties such as ferroelectricity. In this work, an unexplored 2D Janus family BMX (M = Ga, In and X = S, Se) corresponding to group-III ternary chalcogenides has been explored.

Materials such as oxide and halide perovskites that simultaneously exhibit spontaneous polarization and absorption of visible light are called photoferroelectrics. They hold great promise for the development of applications in optoelectronics, information storage, and energy conversion. Devices based on ferroelectric photovoltaic materials yield an open-circuit voltage that is much higher than the band gap of the corresponding active material owing to a strong internal electric field.
