The filterless single-pixel imaging technology is anticipated to hold tremendous competitiveness in diverse imaging applications. Nevertheless, achieving single-pixel color imaging without a filter remains a formidable challenge. Here a lead-free perovskite hemispherical photodetector is reported for filterless single-pixel color imaging.

Advanced photodetectors are crucial for high-fidelity optical communication. However, the tradeoff between high external quantum efficiency (EQE) and high light fidelity (Li-Fi) frequency often limits data transmission accuracy and timeliness. Here, we report a photodetector consisting of lead sulfide (PbS) colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) with near-infrared responsiveness and perovskite frameworks responsible for the charge transport to overcome the EQE × Li-Fi constraint.

In traditional optical wireless communication (OWC) systems, the simultaneous use of multiple sets of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and photodetectors (PDs) increases the system complexity and instability. Here we report bifunctional light-emitting photodetectors (LEPDs) fabricated with quasi-2D perovskite (F-PEA)CsPbIBr as light-emitting/detecting layers for efficient, miniaturized, and intelligent bidirectional OWC. By simply changing the solvent composition of the precursor solution and using antisolvent engineering, we manipulated the crystal orientation and phase distribution of (F-PEA)CsPbIBr, realizing high irradiance (4.

A highly adaptable asymmetric synthetic route toward dihydronaphthalene lignans was developed, with its application to the syntheses of negundin B and vitexin 1/6 described herein. This developed pathway proceeded through an enantioselective aldol reaction to establish the contiguous stereocenters present in the final structures with subsequent functional group transformations yielding (-)-negundin B and (-)-vitexin 1/6. The enantioselective synthesis of vitexin 1/6 allowed the correction of absolute configuration, which has been widely incorrectly reported.

Article Synopsis
  • Isolated Rickettsia japonica from a febrile patient in Lu'an City, China, in 2013.
  • Found a seroprevalence of 54.8% for R. japonica in the rural population of Anhui Province based on a study of 902 individuals.
  • Detected a 0.5% prevalence of R. japonica in Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks from a sample of 935 ticks, confirming the presence of both the bacteria and its tick vector in China.

Article Synopsis
  • An investigation was conducted in Anhui Province, where 56 rodents (44 Apodemus agrarius and 12 Niviventer niviventer) were trapped to study Orientia tsutsugamushi infection.
  • The overall infection rate among the captured rodents was found to be 23.2%, with Apodemus agrarius showing a higher detection rate (27.3%) compared to Niviventer niviventer (8.3%).
  • Two genotypes (Karp and Gilliam strains) of the pathogen were identified, marking the first report of these strains in non-endemic regions of Anhui Province and confirming Apodemus agrarius as the primary host for O. tsutsugamushi.

Human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the major causes of death worldwide. To investigate the relative importance of active and passive targeting strategies, the synthesis, characterization, in vitro uptake, and in vivo biodistribution of specific sulfapyridine HPMA (HPMA: N-(2-hydroxypropyl methacrylamide)) copolymer (sulfapyridine: SPD) conjugates, nonspecific HPMA copolymer conjugates, and DTPA are described in this study. The poly(HPMA)-SPD-DTPA (DTPA: diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid), poly(HPMA)-DTPA, and DTPA conjugates were radiolabeled with the radionuclide (99m)Tc and tested for uptake by cultured H22 cells.
