High Temperature-Resistant Transparent Conductive Films for Photoelectrochemical Devices Based on W/Ag Composite Nanonetworks.

The traditional Ag nanowire preparation means that it cannot meet the demanding requirements of photoelectrochemical devices due to the undesirable conductivity, difficulty in compounding, and poor heat resistance. Here, we prepared an Ag nanonetwork with superior properties using a special template method based on electrospinning technology. The transparent conductive films based on Ag nanonetworks have good transmittance in a wide range from ultraviolet to visible.

Full near-ultraviolet response photoelectrochemical ultraviolet detector based on TiOnanocrystalline coated stainless steel mesh photoanode.

In order to solve the 'ultraviolet (UV) filtering problem' caused by traditional sandwich-type structure in photoelectrochemical (PEC) UV detector, we design a special electrode based on stainless steel mesh, which integrates the light absorption layer and the electron collection electrode in a simple way. In combination with an UV-transparent quartz substrate, UV light can directly reach the active material. The improved detector shows good visible-blind, self-powered, and linear response characteristics.

Ruthenium(ii)-catalyzed synthesis of indazolone-fused cinnolines via C-H coupling with diazo compounds.

A robust, efficient and scalable method for the synthesis of 12H-indazolo[2,1-a]cinnolin-12-ones was developed. Significantly, a less developed cationic complex [Ru(p-cymene)(MeCN)3(SbF6)2] was found to be effective for this transformation. In this reaction, a tandem pathway of C-H ruthenation, Ru(ii)-carbene formation, migratory insertion and condensation was involved.

Manufacturing and Delivering Genome-Editing Proteins.

Genome-editing technologies have revolutionized the biomedical sciences by providing researchers with the ability to quickly and efficiently modify genes. While programmable nucleases can be introduced into cells using a variety of techniques, their delivery as purified proteins is an effective approach for limiting off-target effects. Here, we describe step-by-step procedures for manufacturing and delivering genome-modifying proteins-including Cas9 ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) and TALE and zinc-finger nucleases-into mammalian cells.
