A homogenization model is developed that describes the effective elastic constants of polycrystalline materials with constituent crystallites of general anisotropy (triclinic symmetry). The model is solved through an iterative technique where successive iterations improve the estimates of the polycrystal's elastic con…

Abstract Formamidinium lead triiodide (FAPbI3) is considered as an alternative to methylammonium lead triiodide (MAPbI3) because of its lower band gap and better thermal stability. However, owing to the large size of FA cations, it is difficult to synthesize high‐quality FAPbI3 thin films without the formation of an u…

A self-powered,solution-processed perovskite photodetector with sub-nanosecond response time is presented. Eliminating charge trapping and removing the constraints from the resistance-capacitance constant increases the response speed, which enables them to be applied in a homemade, time-resolved photoluminescence syst…

To achieve efficient organic solar cells, the design of suitable donor-acceptor couples is crucially important. State-of-the-art donor polymers used in fullerene cells may not perform well when they are combined with non-fullerene acceptors, thus new donor polymers need to be developed. Here we report non-fullerene or…

ABSTRACT Polyamide 6 (PA6)/polystyrene (PS) blends with an average particle size of 103 nm were prepared by diffusion and subsequent polymerization of styrene in water‐sorbed PA6 pellets. The pretreatment of PA6 pellets in hot water is prerequisite for successful styrene diffusion. The diffusion process involves repla…

Shape control of silica structures is demonstrated by localization of the reagents. A uniform dispersion of reagents provided straight silica rods, whereas localization of the reagents in the emulsion droplet periphery provided a new type of half-sphere/half-funnel structure. The effect of water concentration appeared…

Cancer is a disease in which cells show an atypical behavior and begin to divide abnormally without control. Furthermore, these cells can spread to other tissues and result in the development of new tumors. It is very difficult to find a treatment that discriminates between tumor cells and healthy cells because cancer…
