Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Detection of Progesterone Receptor-Interacting Endocrine Disruptors
We report a sensitive activity-based biosensor for rapid and reliable screening of progesterone receptor (PR)-interacting endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs).
Manipulating Light's Limits: New Discoveries in Light Barriers
Our study reveals a peculiar behavior of light within photonic crystal barriers, providing new ways to control light in previously unachievable manners.
Optical Axes of Triclinic Crystals in Wanderland
Wandering of optical axes of van der Waals rhenium disulphide or diselenide are enabled by the unique disposition of excitons in their lattices and broken crystal symmetries that together lead to the decoupling of absorption and refraction dielectric permittivities.
Efficient, narrow-band, and stable electroluminescence from organoboronnitrogen-carbonyl emitter
We report a molecular-design strategy, i.e., hybridization of organoboron-nitrogen and carbonyl. OLEDs exploiting binary emitting layers achieve ultrapure emission, a maximum efficiency of over 40% with mild roll-off, and operational stability of LT95~ 137 h of the initial luminance at 1000 nits.
