Polymer solar cells are fabricated with systematic variation of the phase purity. Photovoltaic tests demonstrate that devices with ca. 10% of mixed phases outperform pure-phase devices. Photophysical studies reveal the effects of mixed phase on charge generation and recombination. These

We present total, elastic, and inelastic cross sections for positron and electron scattering from tetrahydrofuran (THF) in the energy range between 1 and 5000 eV. Total cross sections (TCS), positronium formation cross sections, the summed inelastic integral cross sections (ICS)

Urinary bile acids from a 3-mo-old boy with cholestatic jaundice were analyzed by ion exchange chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). This suggested the presence of labile sulfated cholenoic acids with an allylic hydroxyl group, a conclusion supported by analysis
