Article Abstract
The vector radiative transfer problem in a vertically multilayer scattering medium with spatial changes in the index of refraction is solved by the natural element method (NEM). The top boundary of the multilayer medium is irradiated by a collimated beam. In our model, the angular space is discretized by the discrete ordinates approach, and the spatial discretization is conducted by the Galerkin weighted residuals approach. In the solution procedure, the collimated component for the Stokes parameters is first solved by NEM, and then it is embedded into the vector radiative transfer equation for the diffuse component as a source term. To keep the consistency of the directions in all the layers, angular interpolation of the Stokes parameters at the interfaces is adopted. The NEM approach for the collimated component is first validated. Then, the classical coupled atmosphere-water system irradiated by different states of collimated beam is examined to verify the numerical performance of the method. Numerical results show that the NEM is accurate, flexible, and effective in solving polarized radiative transfer in a multilayer medium. Finally, polarized radiative transfer in a four-layer system is investigated and analyzed.

Near-infrared (NIR)-triggered type-I photosensitizers are crucial to address the constraints of hypoxic tumor microenvironments in phototherapy; however, significant challenges remain. By selecting an electron-deficient unit, a matched energy gap in the upper-level state is instrumental in boosting the efficiency of intersystem crossing for the type-I electron transfer process. 2-Cyanothiazole, an electron acceptor, is covalently linked with N, N-diphenyl-4-(thiophen-2-yl)aniline to yield a multifunctional photosensitizer (TTNH) that exhibits intrinsic NIR absorbance and compatible T energy levels, facilitating both radiative and nonradiative transitions.

Dipole molecules (DMs) show great potential in defect passivation for printable mesoscopic perovskite solar cells (p-MPSCs), although the crystallization process of p-MPSCs is more intricate and challenging than planar perovskite solar cells. In this work, a series of non-volatile multifunctional DMs are employed as additives to enhance the crystallization of perovskites and improve both the power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability of the devices. This enhancement is achieved by regulating the side groups of benzoic acid molecules with the electron-donating groups such as guanidine (─NH─C(═NH)─NH), amino (─NH) and formamidine (─C(═NH)─NH).

7,7'-Diazaisoindigos are π-conjugated compounds but with poor luminescence properties. Their poor luminescence is generally attributed to the twisting around the central C-C bond in the excited state which favors non-radiative decay. We have found an unusual high fluorescence quantum yield (Φ ≈ 15 %) in a N,N‑Octyl-7,7'-diazaisoindigo derivative incorporating two triphenylamine (TPA) subunits at 5,5'-positions (called compound 12).

Nanoparticles prepared by soy protein isolate (SPI)-oat β-glucan (OG) extrudates (E-SPI-OG) could encapsulate quercetin and improve its bioaccessibility. This study systematically investigated the binding mechanism between E-SPI-OG and quercetin in nanoparticles using multi-spectroscopic techniques. The results revealed that fluorescence quenching via static type occurred during the interaction between E-SPI-OG and quercetin, accompanied by the occurrence of non-radiative energy transfer (binding distance was 2.

The current investigation explores tri-hybrid mediated blood flow through a ciliary annular model, designed to emulate an endoscopic environment. The human circulatory system, driven by the metachronal ciliary waves, is examined in this study to understand how ternary nanoparticles influence wave-like flow dynamics in the presence of interfacial nanolayers. We also analyze the effect of an induced magnetic field on Ag-Cu-/blood flow within the annulus, focusing on thermal radiation, heat sources, buoyancy forces and ciliary motion.
