Published: June 2018

A monolith photodetector is presented that utilizes the material properties of MAPbI perovskite for self-powered operation and achieves improved stability by composting with polystyrene. The self-powered operation makes this device suitable for remote applications and in smart systems. Improved stability of more than 20 days, with performance maintained by over 80% under ambient conditions, is achieved by incorporating polystyrene without additional fabrication steps. A plain MAPbI device in comparison shows a performance degradation of 70-85% within 4 days of operation. The incorporation of polystyrene also improves the current detectivity of the device by over 70 times compared to plain perovskite.

RNA pesticides have emerged as a promising alternative to conventional chemical pesticides due to their high specificity and minimal environmental impact. However, the instability of RNA molecules in the environment and the challenges associated with their effective delivery to target pests limit their broader application. This study addresses these challenges by developing a dual delivery system using chitosan (CS) and Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) to enhance the delivery and efficacy of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and cycloxaprid against , a vector of citrus greening disease.

Astaxanthin (AST), as a natural antioxidant, has broad application prospects in medicine and health products. However, its highly unsaturated structure and significant lipophilic characteristics limit its dispersibility and bioavailability, thereby restricting its application in food, medicines, and nutraceuticals. To overcome these limitations, researchers have proposed the use of nano delivery systems.
