Summary: A one-step deposition of anti-reflective silicon dioxide coating on solar cover glass was achieved using an atmospheric pressure plasma jet. A two-dimensional moving platform was used for coating large area cover glass. At an input power of 40 W, the temperature of the cover glass remained low at 59.4 degrees C. The impact of different motion patterns on the anti-reflective properties of the film was thoroughly studied. Upon assembling the solar cells, a notable efficiency enhancement from 24.03% to 24.28% was observed. This method shows promising prospects for repairing malfunctioning solar cell modules with anti-reflective films in photovoltaic power plants.

Summary: Zwitterions are neutrally charged molecules with equal numbers of cationic and anionic groups, and their exceptional fouling resistance makes them excellent membrane materials. This study focuses on synthesizing thin-film composite ultrafiltration membranes with ultra-thin hydrogel selective layers using a novel method called Interfacially Initiated Free Radical Polymerization. The researchers found that incorporating two zwitterionic monomers in the hydrogel selective layers led to increased water permeance without significant decrease in protein rejection, and all tested hydrogel selective layer membranes showed excellent oil fouling resistance.

Summary: This article investigates the surface modification of polyethylene (PE) using atmospheric pressure plasma jets. The results show that the use of a premixed gas containing 90% argon and 10% CH4 leads to a smaller jet length, a shift in the transition point from laminar to turbulent regime, and the appearance of CH, H-2 and C-2 emissions. Surface treatment of PE using both laminar and turbulent regimes improves its hydrophilicity due to the incorporation of oxygen groups (C=O), but the use of pure argon plasma induces surface degradation compared to Ar/CH4 plasma due to higher excited species.

Summary: Modern lifestyle diseases (LSD) such as cancer, diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular, and thyroid disease are commonly seen among people of different age groups. One of the root causes of these diseases is the type of food that we consume. Staple crops are grown with the use of agrochemicals, which leave traces in our food. Additionally, the food is processed using saturated fats, toxic chemicals, and additives, compromising its nutritional value and weakening the immune system.

Summary: In this study, plasma treatments were applied to PLA and PLA/PAni solutions prior to electrospinning, improving their viscosity and conductivity, and resulting in uniform and well-elongated nanofibers. The nanofibers were further treated with a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) treatment, which significantly increased their surface wettability. The presence of conducting PAni in the scaffolds further promoted the behavior of PC-12 cells, leading to an increase in neurite density.

Summary: Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a new type of photoactive organic semiconductors with ordered structures and high surface areas. The band gaps of COFs can be tuned by the choice of building blocks and linkages, making them tailor-made for specific (photocatalytic) applications. However, there are still many unexplored building blocks for COFs as photocatalytic moieties, and the scope of photocatalyzed reactions by COFs is limited.

Summary: Covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) based on polydentate ligands are promising catalyst supports that combine the reactivity of homogeneous catalysts with the robustness and recyclability of heterogeneous ones. In this study, a rhodium (III) complex was immobilized on a bipyridine-based CTF for the transfer hydrogenation of N-heteroarenes in water using sodium formate as the hydrogen source. The immobilized catalyst showed excellent activity for various quinoxalines and other N-heteroarenes, and maintained high activity during recycling, making it suitable for continuous flow synthesis.

Summary: This study investigated the structures of two Se chains confined inside single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), revealing that the chains were linear and parallel. The covalent bond between Se and SWCNT was found to be stronger than that between Se and trigonal Se (t-Se). The interaction between chains was attributed to the overlap of electronic orbitals, and the disappearance of this overlap in the encapsulated Se chains enhanced the covalent bonds.

Summary: In this study, we elucidate the hopping mechanism of hydrogen at intermediate temperature using a combination of experimental data and theoretical calculations. We find that the transition from thermal hopping to quantum tunneling is attributed to resonant tunneling, which is achieved through the resonant tunneling of discrete vibrational states between the edge octahedral site and the tetrahedral site. We also demonstrate that the tunneling rate can be tuned by energy level matching.
