This work demonstrates a highly modular, fully regioselective, and high-yielding route to accessing a variety of multiarylated thiophene motifs. Specifically, this method was used to generate unique diarylated (2,5 or 3,5 or 4,5), triarylated (2,3,5 or 2,4,5 or 3,4,5), and tetra-arylated (2,3,4,5) thiophenes, and branched oligothiophenes. Our approach ena ...

Objectives: This study evaluated the effects of delayed post-polymerization on color, degree of conversion (DC), flexural strength (FS), and cellular response of a 3D-printed dental interim resin. Methods: Specimens were divided into six groups based on delays of 0 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, and 10 h before post-polymerization. Color was characterized using ...

Vision Transformers (ViTs), inspired by their success in natural language processing, have recently gained attention for heart sound classification (HSC). However, most of the existing studies on HSC rely on single-stream architectures, overlooking the advantages of multi-resolution features. While multi-stream architectures employing early or late fusion ...

In this study, we propose a novel hybrid framework for assessing the invasiveness of an in-house dataset of 114 pathologically proven lung adenocarcinomas presenting as subsolid nodules on Computed Tomography (CT). Nodules were classified into group 1 (G1), which included atypical adenomatous hyp ...

Recently, all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries (ASSLIBs), which exhibit improved safety and enhanced energy density compared to conventional commercialized lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), thereby have garnered extensive research interest. Among the promising cathode candidates, Mn-based spinel cathodes LiMn2O4 (LMO) and LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO), with the uniq ...
