The advancement of organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials has attracted considerable interest owing to their extensive applications. Their distinct advantages, including a metal-free composition, low toxicity, and facile synthesis under ambient conditions, make them highly desirable. This study examines the delayed fluorescence (DF) and RTP of metal-free, amorphous indenophenanthridine (IND)-based derivatives (1-10) and provides insights into molecular functionalisation and host matrix effects on delayed emission (RTP and DF). IND derivatives have been used in bioimaging and organic analyte detections; however, their delayed emission mechanism photophysical processes are poorly understood. This work examines the derivatives' physicochemical properties and time-resolved photophysics to determine how molecular structure, host interaction, and delayed emission properties relate. The described IND compounds show RTP and/or TTA (triplet-triplet annihilation) delayed fluorescence depending on the host environment. This research lays the groundwork for designing and developing new materials with increased RTP efficiency for future applications by detailing the detailed RTP processes and the crucial function of the host matrix.

Carbon credits feature prominently in corporate climate strategies and have sparked public debate about their potential to delay companies' internal decarbonisation. While industry reports claim that credit purchasers decarbonise faster, rigorous evidence is missing. Here, we provide an in-depth analysis of 89 multinational companies' historical emission reductions and climate target ambitions.

Time-resolved data acquisition is crucial for compositional analysis using Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS). It can be managed by adjusting the delay time and gate width of the spectrometer. This study describes the compositional analysis of molybdenum (Mo) ore utilizing charge coupled device (CCD) and intensified charge-coupled device (ICCD) based LIBS systems.

Helicene-based circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) materials suffer from severely low color purity in circularly polarized organic light-emitting diodes (CP-OLEDs). Here, a novel molecular engineering strategy is introduced by replacing helicene containing continuous fused benzene rings with a multiple resonance (MR) framework comprising discontinuous fused benzene rings. This approach effectively suppresses high-frequency C─C bond stretching vibrations and enhances short-range charge transfer, enabling high color purity, CPL activity, and efficient thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF).

Unlabelled: Encephalitis is a potentially life-threatening condition with infectious or autoimmune aetiologies. Autoimmune encephalitis includes paraneoplastic variants associated with specific onconeural antibodies such as anti-Hu, frequently linked to malignancies. Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is the leading infectious cause in adults.

Several studies implicate circadian rhythm disturbances in Alzheimer's disease. However, very little is known about how circadian rhythms are associated with Alzheimer's pathological biomarkers in older adults at early stages of the disease, and how these relationships map onto cognition. This cross-sectional study used 24-h accelerometry data to investigate the relationships between circadian rhythms, amyloid-β (Aβ), tau, and cognition in 68 older adults with objective early cognitive impairment.
