The concurrent enhancement of the short-circuit current (JSC) and open-circuit voltage (VOC) is a key problem in the preparation of efficient organic solar cells (OSCs). In this paper, we report...
An internal and marginal fit between prosthesis and abutment is an important factor of the durability of dental prosthesis. In this paper, we have proposed the use of swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT) as a novel application for non-ionized and high-resolution measurements of internal and marginal discrepancies at anatomically critical four points, such as occlusal, angle, axial, and margin during prosthesis attachment. A tooth model was fabricated by a 3D printing technique, and the dental prosthesis was designed using dental CAD software. The cross-sectional images along with intensity peak profile analysis of the sample were acquired using the OCT system for measurements of fit. The demonstrated qualitative and quantitative evaluations can be well-utilized for assessment of the internal and marginal fit of dental prosthesis.

Solution-processable precrystalline nanowires (NWs) of conjugated polymers (CPs) have garnered significant attention in fundamental research based on crystallization-driven self-assembly and in the roll-to-roll fabrication of optoelectronic devices such as organic...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
