Advancing Health Equity for Medical Devices
Proposed reforms to the FDA's Breakthrough Medical Devices program provide an opportunity to examine challenges and potential solutions for addressing health disparities in medical device development.
A direct observation of up-converted room-temperature phosphorescence in an anti-Kasha dopant-matrix system
It is common sense that emission maxima of phosphorescence spectra (λP) are longer than those of fluorescence spectra (λF). We report a serendipitous finding of up-converted room-temperature phosphorescence with λP < λF and phosphorescence lifetime > 0.1 s in dopant-matrix systems.
