We report narrow band gap bipolar host materials, CbPr-3 (9,9'-[(3,3'-Biphenyl-3.3'-yl-bipyridine)-1,3-biphenyl]bis-9H-carbazole) and Bim-4 (9,9'-[5-(1-phenyl-1H-benzimadazol-2yl)-1,3-phenylene] bis-9H-carbazole), for blue phosphorescent OLEDs application. These two bipolar hosts have high triplet energy of > 2.9 eV, capable of reducing the driving voltages and improving efficiencies. Significant low driving voltages of 7.4 and 6.6 V were obtained for CbPr-3 and Bim-4 hosts, compared with 9.0 V of the commonly used host, mCP (1,3-bis(9-carbazolyl)benzene). At a given constant luminance of 1000 cd/m2, the power efficiency of both the bipolar host devices was enhanced by 2.5 times.

Background: The human gut mycobiome, a minor but integral component of the gut microbiome, has emerged as a significant player in host homeostasis and disease development. While bacteria have traditionally been the focus of gut microbiome studies, recent evidence suggests that fungal communities (mycobiota) may also play a crucial role in modulating health, particularly in neuropsychiatric disorders.
Objective: This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of current knowledge on the relationship between the gut mycobiome and neuropsychiatric disorders, exploring the potential of targeting fungal communities as a novel therapeutic strategy.

Crystalline organic semiconductors, recognized for their highly ordered structures and high carrier mobility, have emerged as a focal point in the field of high-performance optoelectronic devices. Nevertheless, the intrinsic unipolar properties, characterized by imbalanced hole and electron transport capabilities, have continuously represented a significant challenge in the advancement of high-performance crystalline thin-film organic light-emitting diodes (C-OLEDs). Here, a bipolar solid-solution thin film with a maintained crystal structure has been fabricated using 2-(4-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)-1(3,5-difluorophenyl)-1H-phenanthro [9,10-d]imidazole (2FPPICz) and 4-(1-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)-N,N-diphenylaniline (2Fn) via a weak epitaxial growth (WEG) process, exhibiting nearly equivalent hole and electron mobilities (10-10 cm V s).

We have previously shown that the transplantation of stem cell-derived retinal organoid (RO) sheets into animal models of end-stage retinal degeneration can lead to host-graft synaptic connectivity and restoration of vision, which was further improved using genome-edited Islet1 ROs (gROs) with a reduced number of ON-bipolar cells. However, the details of visual function restoration using this regenerative therapeutic approach have not yet been characterized. Here, we evaluated the electrophysiological properties of end-stage rd1 retinas after transplantation (TP-rd1) and compared them with those of wild-type (WT) retinas using multi-electrode arrays.

The further success of OLED beyond conventional low-luminance display applications has been hampered by the low power efficiency (PE) at high luminance. Here, we demonstrate the strategic implementation of an exceptionally high-PE, high-luminance OLED using a phosphor-assisted thermally-activated-delayed-fluorescence (TADF)-sensitized narrowband emission. On the basis of a TADF sensitizing-host possessing a fast reverse intersystem crossing, an anti-aggregation-caused-quenching character and a good bipolar charge-transporting ability, this design achieves not only a 100% exciton radiative consumption with decay times mainly in the sub-microsecond regime to mitigate exciton annihilations for nearly roll-off-free external quantum efficiency, but also narrowband emission with both small energetic loss during energy transfer and resistive loss with increasing luminance.

The gut microbiota is a community of microorganisms that live in the digestive tract of living beings and form bidirectional symbiotic relationships with them. It is known that gut bacteria play an important role in maintaining the functioning of the host organism, and disruption in the normal composition of the gut microbiota can contribute to the development of many diseases. The study of microbiota has been gaining popularity in recent years, and its influence on the course of various pathological conditions is becoming more and more undeniable.
