Chiral-specific interaction of light with organic materials is important but typically arises from circular polarization-dependent absorption of specific optical transitions, resulting in narrow effective wavelength ranges. This study presents a scalable and universal concept for broadband circular dichroism (CD) enabled by strained conducting polymer thin films that possess in-plane hyperbolic optical behavior (i.e., optically metallic and dielectric properties along orthogonal directions). It is shown that off-axis stacking of two or more such thin films provides broadband CD that varies with the hyperbolic bandwidth and stacking geometry. By contrast to traditional chiroptical materials, the CD can also be modulated by redox-tuning of the hyperbolic polymer properties, opening for broadband dynamic chiroptical components.

We report the cosolvency effect of formamidinium lead triiodide (FAPbI) in a mixture of γ-butyrolactone (GBL) and 2-methoxyethanol (2ME), a phenomenon where FAPbI shows higher solubility in the solvent blend than in either alone. We found that FAPbI exhibits 10× higher solubility in 30% 2ME in GBL than in 2ME alone and 40% higher solubility than in GBL alone at 90 °C. This enhanced solubility is attributed to the disruption of the hydrogen bonding network within 2ME, allowing its hydroxyl and ether groups to interact more freely with the solute.

Type 1 diabetic (T1D) patients are life-long dependent on insulin therapy to keep their blood glucose levels under control. An alternative cell-based therapy for exogenous insulin injections is clinical islet transplantation (CIT). Currently the widespread application of CIT is limited, due to risks associated with the life-long use of immunosuppressive drugs to prevent rejection of donor cells.

While amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide (α-IGZO) thin film transistors (TFTs) are practical alternatives to silicon-based TFTs, their field-effect mobility (∼50 cm/(V s), depending on deposition conditions) remains insufficient to meet the growing demands of high-resolution active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) displays. The need for high-performance oxide TFTs with mobility ≥100 cm/(V s) has become critical to meet the evolving display industry's requirements. This study explored the development of high-mobility hexagonal homologous compound (HC) indium zinc tin oxide (IZTO) TFTs as an alternative to α-IGZO TFTs.

Electronic noses have been widely used in industrial production, food preservation, agricultural product storage, environmental monitoring, and other fields. However, due to the cross-sensitivity of gas-sensing responses, accurately measuring the concentration of mixed gases remains challenging. To address this issue, this study attempts to determine the number of state variables that produce the cross-influence based on the experimental data, establish the state space model from the equivalent circuit model, and obtain model parameters through parameter correlation iterative algorithms and a Kalman filter.
