Light scattering yet transparent electrodes are important for photovoltaics as they increase device efficiency by prolonging light path lengths. Here, we present a novel single step route to highly textured Al doped ZnO thin films on glass substrates that show a minimum resistivity of ∼3 × 10 Ω cm and high visible light transmittance of 83% while still maintaining high haze factor of 63%. Roughness was imparted into the ZnO films during the synthetic process using acetylacetone and deionized water as additives. The highly hazy yet visible and near infrared transparent nature of the conductive ZnO:Al films allow it to be potentially used as an electrode material in amorphous and microcrystalline silicon solar cells.

Metal-organic frameworks have received extensive development in the past three decades, which are generally constructed via the reaction between inorganic building units and commercially available or presynthesized organic linkers. However, the presynthesis of organic linkers is usually time-consuming and unsustainable due to multiple-step separation and purification. Therefore, methodology development of a new strategy is fundamentally important for the construction and further exploration of the applications of MOFs.

Copper-based electrocatalysts are recognized as crucial catalysts for CO electroreduction into multi-carbon products. However, achieving copper-based electrocatalysts with adjustable valences via one-step facile synthesis remains a challenge. In this study, Cu/CuO heterostructure is constructed by adjusting the anion species of the Cu ions-containing electrolyte during electrodeposition synthesis.

Involutional lower eyelid ectropion is a common disorder of the elderly population. Several surgical approaches have been described in the literature to address the multifactorial nature of this condition, each targeting different factors contributing to its development. Nevertheless, no single procedure has proven to be superior to the others.

Metasurface-based imaging is attractive due to its low hardware costs and system complexity. However, most of the current metasurface-based imaging systems require stochastic wavefront modulation, complex computational post-processing, and are restricted to 2D imaging. To overcome these limitations, we propose a scanning virtual aperture imaging system.

In the domain of autonomous driving, trajectory prediction plays a pivotal role in ensuring the safety and reliability of autonomous systems, especially when navigating complex environments. Unfortunately, trajectory prediction suffers from uncertainty problems due to the randomness inherent in the driving environment, but uncertainty quantification in trajectory prediction is not widely addressed, and most studies rely on deep ensembles methods. This study presents a novel uncertainty-aware multimodal trajectory prediction (UAMTP) model that quantifies aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties through a single forward inference.
