We present the study of thermal and optical properties of 15.5 pair of GaAlAsSb/AlAsSb layers deposited upon a GaSb substrate by photothermal deflection spectroscopy. This stacking of layers constitutes a distributed Bragg mirror.

In this contribution, we apply our newly developed ball-milling platform, which combines Raman spectroscopy and thermal (IR) imaging, as well as acoustic and high-speed optical video recordings, to the synthesis and transformation of citric acid-isonicotinamide (1:2) cocrystal polymorphs in transparent PMMA jars. Particularly, we demonstrate how Raman, temperature, acoustic, and video data are complementary and enable detection and connection of chemical and physical events happening during ball-milling in a time-resolved manner. Importantly, we show that the formation of the three cocrystal polymorphs can be detected through acoustic analyses solely.

Effective storage and utilization of limited donor corneal resources are in high demand to alleviate the shortage of donor corneal tissue. Here, we designed a static air-lifted organ culture system equipped with a protective coverage membrane, namely, an air-lifted OC-P system, to provide a biomimetic physiological environment for full-thickness corneal preservation. The air-lifted OC-P system features a unique collagen-based protective coverage membrane that can offer a moist, oxygen-rich environment for corneal epithelium, produce an appropriate intraocular pressure onto the cornea by gravity, and facilitate the maintenance of the organ culture medium level for nutrient supply during corneal preservation.

Electroluminescent (EL) devices consisting of a single metal-semiconductor contact and a gate effect structure have garnered significant attention in the field of perovskite light-emitting devices. This interest is largely due to the thermal stability of the active layer and the simplicity of the device structure. However, the application of these devices in large-area light-emitting applications is hindered by the inherently low carrier mobility in perovskite materials.

Thermal co-evaporation of halide perovskites is a solution-free, conformal, scalable, and controllable deposition technique with great potential for commercial applications, particularly in multi-junction solar cells. Monolithic triple-junction perovskite solar cells have garnered significant attention because they can achieve very high efficiencies. Nevertheless, challenges arise in fabricating these devices, as they require multiple layers and precise current matching across complex absorber stacks.

The current demand for highly sensitive, optical sensors in biodiagnostics has prompted the development of ultrathin metal coatings on a range of substrates. Given the potential attenuation of the signal from a plasmonic sensor for the detection of fluorescent molecules when an adhesion layer between the substrate and coating is employed, this study examines the impact of various factors on the adhesion strength between gold coatings and substrates comprising glass and cyclo-olefin-polymer (COP). The objective is to identify potential configurations for high adhesion strength, thereby eliminating the need for an adhesion layer in the fabrication of optical sensors with gold coatings for diagnostic applications or to utilize a minimal adhesion layer thickness.
