The photon-energy conversion covering the full spectral wave band is crucial for detecting and storing information. Schottky junctions in nanoscale such as TiO:Ag enable multicolor photochromism and information storage in the visible region. However, the photoelectrons from the UV-excited semiconductor cause the loss of information. It has become a big challenge to the data memory of Schottky junctions extending from the visible to UV band. Herein, we construct a stacked heterojunction structure of TaO/TiO:Ag as a full wave band holographic memory. Coherent green laser beams are utilized to inscribe a Fourier transform hologram, followed by burning a computer-generated hologram in a focused UV laser spot array. The holographic array based on UV photothermal effect presents high refractive index modulation in the stacked layered oxide film. Meanwhile, the excellent UV protection of TaO/TiO heterojunctions makes it possible to fully preserve previously written Fourier transform holographic data. Information cross talk between the two kinds of holograms is almost inhibited. This work provides a bright way for high-density data storage, wideband optical detection, and advanced manufacturing of micro-optical components.

Purpose: To reassess the anatomic basis of optic disc pit maculopathy (OPM) using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) and to characterize the broader structural abnormalities comprising the optic pit complex.
Methods: Sixteen patients with OPM were imaged using a high-resolution SS-OCT system (DREAM OCT). Cross-sectional and volume-rendered scans were analyzed for lamina cribrosa defects, intraneural cavitations, and pathways for fluid entry into or beneath the retina.

The nanoscale environment within the void spaces of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can significantly influence the photoredox catalytic activity of encapsulated visible-light photoredox catalysts (PCs). To compare two isostructural PC@In-MOF systems, three cationic Ru(II) polypyridine complexes were successfully encapsulated within the mesoscale channels of the anionic framework of InTATB (HTATB = 4,4',4''--triazine-2,4,6-triyltribenzoic acid), which features a doubly interpenetrated framework structure. This encapsulation yielded three heterogenized visible-light PCs, RuL@InTATB, where L = 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), or 2,2'-bipyrazine (bpz).

Powered air-purifying respirators (PAPR) have become an increasingly utilized form of respiratory protection against highly infectious aerosols. In the United States, PAPRs have been used in high-level clinical isolation settings to care for patients infected with viral hemorrhagic fevers and, more recently, during the COVID-19 pandemic. PAPRs have long been used for biocontainment care and experienced increased use during the pandemic because they provide full-face visibility and eye and respiratory protection.

LiNiMnO (LNMO) is a promising material for the cathode of lithium-ion batteries (LiBs); however, its high operating voltage causes stability issues when used with carbonate battery electrolytes. Ionic liquids are a viable alternative to conventional carbonate solvents due to their thermal stability and electrochemical window. This work reports the performance of LNMO/Li half cells with an ionic liquid electrolyte (ILE) composed of 0.

In this work, carbon nanodots (CNDs) were synthesized via a pyrolysis carbonization method using petals. The synthesized CNDs exhibit optical absorption in the UV region, with a tail extending out into the visible range. When these CNDs interact with Ho ions through charge transfer processes, they form an RE-CNDs hybrid (Rare Earth-CNDs hybrid), resulting in fluorescence quenching in an aqueous solution.
