In this study, we report the observation of various conduction mechanisms in mechanically exfoliated PbSnSe based on temperature-dependent current and voltage characteristics. A transition from direct tunneling to Fowler-Nordheim tunneling in PbSnSe was observed at 2.63 V. At lower temperatures, the 3D Mott variable range hopping model fits the data, yielding a density of states of ∼8.80 × 10 eV cm at 2 V. The values of and were 64 meV and 22.7 nm, respectively, at 250 K. The Poole-Frenkel conduction was observed in the Au/PbSnSe/Au device and the dielectric constant of PbSnSe was calculated to be 1.4. At intermediate voltages, a space charge limited current with an exponential distribution of traps was observed and a trap density of ∼9.53 × 10 cm and a trap characteristic temperature of 430 K were calculated for the Au/PbSnSe/Au device.

Purpose: Workers' compensation claims can negatively affect the wellbeing of injured workers. For some, these negative effects continue beyond finalisation of the workers' compensation claim. It is unclear what factors influence wellbeing following finalisation of a workers' compensation claim.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide with high recurrence rates and resistance to conventional therapies. Recent studies have highlighted the pivotal role of oral cancer stem cells (OCSCs) in driving treatment resistance and tumor recurrence. OCSCs possess unique properties, including self-renewal, differentiation potential, and resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, which contribute to their ability to survive treatment and initiate tumor relapse.

Firearm-related scenarios can be highly complex, involving multiple shooters, firearms, types of ammunition, victims, and various impact zones. Obtaining the maximum amount of information to connect each piece of the puzzle is crucial for resolving these cases. Currently, new tools are being developed in the forensic field that facilitate both fieldwork and laboratory analysis, enabling the estimation of trajectories, identification of shooters, and more.

A convenient and efficient transition-metal-free method has been developed for the C(sp)-H alkoxylation/aryloxylation of 1,4-quinones by direct cross-dehydrogenative coupling with readily available alcohols and phenols in the presence of TEMPO under simple and mild conditions. The method allowed the installation of a wide range of alkoxy/aryloxy groups, exhibited high functional group tolerance, showed a broad substrate scope, afforded good to excellent yields of products in a simple one-pot operation, and could be performed on a gram scale. Mechanistic investigation indicated the involvement of the radical pathway.
