Ultraviolet light-emitting diodes fabricated from N-polar AlGaN/GaN core-shell nanowires (NWs) with p-i-n structure produced electroluminescence at 365 nm with ∼5× higher intensities than similar GaN homojunction LEDs. The improved characteristics were attributed to localization of spontaneous recombination to the NW core, reduction of carrier overflow losses through the NW shell, and elimination of current shunting. Poisson-drift-diffusion modeling indicated that a shell Al mole fraction of x = 0.1 in Al Ga N effectively confines electrons and injected holes to the GaN core region. AlGaN overcoat layers targeting this approximate Al mole fraction were found to possess a low-Al-content tip and high-Al-content shell, as determined by scanning transmission electron microscopy. Photoluminescence spectroscopy further revealed the actual Al mole fraction to be NW diameter-dependent, where the tip and shell compositions converged towards the nominal flux ratio for large diameter NWs.

Mixtures of multiple surfactants that have superior performance to the individual components are highly sought-after commercially. Mixtures with a reduced Krafft point () are particularly useful as they enable applications at lower temperatures. Such an example is the soap maker's eutectic: the mixture of sodium laurate (NaL) and sodium oleate (NaOl).

Observation-based verification of regional/national methane (CH) emission trends is crucial for transparent monitoring and mitigation strategy planning. Although surface observations track the global and sub-hemispheric emission trends well, their sparse spatial coverage limits our ability to assess regional trends. Dense satellite observations complement surface observations, offering a valuable means to validate emission trends, especially in regions where emissions changes are substantial but debated.
