Three new multi-carbazole derivatives (2C–4C) with a twisted and zigzag-shape structure were designed, synthesized and used as sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The results showed that this non-planar structure of 2C–4C, combined with multi alkyl chains, can efficiently inhibit dye aggregation and charge recombination, which gave DSSCs with a high open circuit voltage (Voc) and a...

Journal of Applied Physics, Volume 132, Issue 22, December 2022. Thermoreflectance based techniques, such as pump–probe thermoreflectance (pump–probe TR) and thermoreflectance thermal imaging (TTI), have emerged as the powerful and versatile tools for the characterization of wide bandgap (WBG) and ultrawide bandgap (UWBG) semiconductor thermal transport properties and device temperatures, respecti...
In addition to coding proteins, RNA molecules, especially long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), have well‐established functions in regulating gene expression. The number of studies focused on the roles played by different types of lncRNAs in a variety of plant biological processes has markedly increased. These lncRNA roles involve plant vegetative and reproductive growth and responses to biotic and abio...
Steady-state extramedullary hematopoiesis during adulthood is an emerging field of great interest. The meninges contain both innate and adaptive immune cells, which provide immunosurveillance of the central nervous system (CNS). Hematopoietic progenitors that give rise to meningeal immune cells remain elusive. Here, we report that steady-state meninges of adult mice host hematopoietic stem cells (...
An efficient and economical 4D printing approach that adopts multispeed fused deposition modeling technique to directly construct complex 3D structures from flat precursory patterns is proposed.
4D printing is an advanced technology that aims to endow the additively manufactured objects with time dependent transformations. Despite the great progress in the last decade, however, there are still s...
The goal of this study was to identify potentially important factors for the dental health though heterogeneous effects of risk factors within Chinese adolescent populations with different characteristics by analyzing the repeated cross-sectional data collected in the 3rd (2005) and 4th (2015) National Oral Health Survey. We studied the relationships between the decayed, missing and filled permane...
