We correct two minor errors in the manuscript. The effective diameter of the ring modulator should be 62.5 μm rather than 65 μm. The factor, g, in the FOM for comparing between the O- and C-band results should be 0.83 instead of 0.7.

Article Synopsis
  • The text discusses the challenges of achieving ideal bandgaps for double-junction tandem solar cells and highlights how Cu(In,Ga)Se (CIGSe) can closely match the desired bandgap of 1.00 eV by adjusting its composition.
  • It describes a method to improve the open circuit voltage by introducing Ga gradients in the absorber layer, which helps mitigate issues like interfacial carrier recombination.
  • The study presents a narrow-bandgap CIGSe solar cell that achieved a record efficiency of 20.26% and emphasizes the importance of controlling gallium diffusion to enhance performance in tandem solar cell applications.

Concomitant with the rupture of the cloacal membrane, the perineal skin epithelium thickens (see accompanying article). In this study, we establish in female embryos and foetuses that the thick skin area divides into ventral and dorsal areas at ~14 weeks and gradually becomes restricted to the vaginal vestibule and anal canal thereafter. The dense mesenchymal core of the labia minora, which forms at ~8 weeks, extends dorsally to the anal canal as a midline reinforcement.

Unstable trauma lesion of the spinopelvic junction, including U-shaped sacral fractures and Tile C pelvic ring disruptions, require surgical stabilization in order to realign the bone arches of the pelvis thus reducing the upcoming orthopaedic impairment during sitting, standing, and walking positions, decompress the nerves roots of the cauda equina in a view of reducing neurological impairment, and allow early weight bearing. Even though posterior open modified triangular spinopelvic fixation is particularly efficient for treating unstable trauma lesions of the spinopelvic junction, it may not be sufficient alone in order to prevent long-term counter-nutation, i.e.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of a novel method for occipitocervical fixation (OCF) through the endonasal corridor.

Methods: Thin-cut computed tomography scans were obtained for 5 cadaveric specimens. Image segmentation was used to reconstruct 3D models of each O-C1 joint complex.

Unstable traumas of the spinopelvic junction, which include displaced U-shaped sacral fractures (Roy-Camille type 2 and type 3) and Tile C vertical shear pelvic ring disruptions, occur in severe traumas patients following high speed traffic accident or fall from a height. These unstable traumas of the spinopelvic junction jeopardize one's ability to stand and to walk by disrupting the biomechanical arches of the pelvis, and may also cause cauda equina syndrome. Historically, such patients were treated with bed rest and could suffer a life-long burden of orthopedic and neurological disability.
