Photothermal attogram spectroscopy Nat. Photon. (IF 35.0) Pub Date : 2023-09-29 Giampaolo Pitruzzello
Photothermal spectroscopy measures the absorption spectra of materials by recording the wavelength-dependent heat generated upon the absorption of light. A heat sink converts the absorbed heat into a measurable quantity, such as an electrical signal in the case of thermoelectric sensors. The sensitivity of the technique critically depends on the thermal capacitance of the sensor, as this determines

Monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells are of great appeal as they promise high power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) at affordable cost. In state-of-the-art tandems, the perovskite top cell is electrically coupled to a silicon heterojunction bottom cell via a self-assembled monolayer (SAM), anchored on a transparent conductive oxide (TCO), which enables efficient charge transfer between the

The sex-specific factor SOA controls dosage compensation in Anopheles mosquitos Nature (IF 64.8) Pub Date : 2023-09-28 Agata Izabela Kalita, Eric Marois, Magdalena Kozielska, Franz J. Weissing, Etienne Jaouen, Martin M. Möckel, Frank Rühle, Falk Butter, M. Felicia Basilicata, Claudia Isabelle Keller Valsecchi
The Anopheles mosquito is one of thousands of species in which sex differences play a central role in their biology, as only females need a blood meal in order to produce eggs. Sex differentiation is regulated by sex chromosomes, but their presence creates a dosage imbalance between males (XY) and females (XX). Dosage compensation (DC) can re-equilibrate the expression of sex-chromosomal genes, but

As flexible electronic devices continue to scale down, the extraneous response of the electrical contacts/leads to the mechanical modulation becomes non-negligible, making it increasingly difficult to accurately determine the device's intrinsic response. This poses an important challenge for dynamic characterization of flexible electronics. Here, we demonstrate a new scheme that can effectively isolate
