Helical Hybrid Nanostructure Based on Chiral M13 Bacteriophage via Evaporation-Induced Three-Dimensional Process.

The use of naturally sourced organic materials with chirality, such as the M13 bacteriophage, holds intriguing implications, especially in the field of nanotechnology. The chirality properties of bacteriophages have been demonstrated through numerous studies, particularly in the analysis of liquid crystal phase transitions, developing specific applications. However, exploring the utilization of the M13 bacteriophage as a template for creating chiral nanostructures for optics and sensor applications comes with significant challenges. In this study, the chirality of the M13 bacteriophage was leveraged as a valuable tool for generating helical hybrid structures by combining it with nanoparticles through an evaporation-induced three-dimensional (3D) printing process. Utilizing on the self-assembly property of the M13 bacteriophage, metal nanoparticles were organized into a helical chain under the influence of the M13 bacteriophage at the meniscus interface. External parameters, including nanoparticle shape, the ratio between the bacteriophage and nanoparticles, and pulling speed, were demonstrated as crucial factors affecting the fabrication of helical nanostructures. This study aimed to explore the potential of chiral nanostructure fabrication by utilizing the chirality of the M13 bacteriophage and manipulating external parameters to control the properties of the resulting hybrid structures.

Primary Reconstruction Using Fibular Strut Allograft for Distal Humerus Intra-articular Comminuted Open Fracture (AO/OTA13C2, G-A type IIIA): A Case Report.

Distal humerus intra-articular comminuted open fracture is a challenging injury, with nonunion, infection and stiffness considered as major concerns. We report a 58-year-old woman who was admitted to the emergency department from a car accident, sustaining an open wound with severe comminution of distal humerus and complete articular fracture, classified as AO/OTA 13C2 and Gustillo Anderson type IIIA. Debridement and external fixation was done first, followed by open reduction and internal fixation with fibular strut allograft. The patient showed excellent results in radiological and functional outcomes. Level of Evidence: Level V (Therapeutic).

Failure to rescue following emergency general surgery: A national analysis.

Background: Failure to rescue (FTR) is increasingly recognized as a quality metric but remains understudied in emergency general surgery (EGS). We sought to identify patient and operative factors associated with FTR to better inform standardized metrics to mitigate this potentially preventable event. Methods: All adult (≥18 years) non-elective hospitalizations for large bowel resection, small bowel resection, repair of perforated ulcer, laparotomy and lysis of adhesions were identified in the 2016-2020 National Readmissions Database. Patients undergoing trauma-related operations or procedures ≤2 days of admission were excluded. FTR was defined as in-hospital death following acute kidney injury requiring dialysis (AKI), myocardial infarction, pneumonia, respiratory failure, sepsis, stroke, or thromboembolism. Multilevel mixed-effect models were developed to assess factors linked with FTR. Results: Among 826,548 EGS operations satisfying inclusion criteria, 298,062 (36.1 %) developed at least one MAE. Of those experiencing MAE, 43,477 (14.6 %) ultimately did not survive to discharge (FTR). Following adjustment for fixed hospital level effects, only 3.5 % of the variance in FTR was attributable to center-level differences. Relative to private insurance and the highest income quartile, Medicaid insurance (AOR 1.33; 95%CI, 1.23-1.43) and the lowest income quartile (AOR 1.22; 95%CI, 1.17-1.29) were linked with increased odds of FTR.A subset analysis stratified complication-specific rates of FTR by insurance status. Relative to private insurance, Medicaid coverage and uninsured status were linked with greater odds of FTR following perioperative sepsis, pneumonia, and AKI. Conclusion: Our findings underscore the need for increased screening and vigilance following perioperative complications to mitigate disparities in patient outcomes following high-risk EGS.

Structure and Formation Mechanisms in Tantalum and Niobium Oxides in Superconducting Quantum Circuits.

Improving the qubit's lifetime (T1) is crucial for fault-tolerant quantum computing. Recent advancements have shown that replacing niobium (Nb) with tantalum (Ta) as the base metal significantly increases T1, likely due to a less lossy native surface oxide. However, understanding the formation mechanism and nature of both surface oxides is still limited. Using aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy, we found that Ta surface oxide has fewer suboxides than Nb oxide. We observed an abrupt oxidation state transition from Ta2O5 to Ta, as opposed to the gradual shift from Nb2O5, NbO2, and NbO to Nb, consistent with thermodynamic modeling. Additionally, amorphous Ta2O5 exhibits a closer-to-crystalline bonding nature than Nb2O5, potentially hindering H atomic diffusion toward the oxide/metal interface. Finally, we propose a loss mechanism arising from the transition between two states within the distorted octahedron in an amorphous structure, potentially causing two-level system loss. Our findings offer a deeper understanding of the differences between native amorphous Ta and Nb oxides, providing valuable insights for advancing superconducting qubits through surface oxide engineering.

Thyroid and neurobehavioral effects of DiNP on GH3 cells and larval zebrafish (Danio rerio).

Diisononyl phthalate (DiNP) has been used to replace bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and is frequently found in the environment and humans. DiNP is reported for its anti-androgenic activity; however, little is known about its effects on thyroid function and neurodevelopment. In the present study, the thyroid disruption and neurobehavioral alteration potential of DiNP and its major metabolites were assessed in a rat pituitary carcinoma cell line (GH3) and embryo-larval zebrafish (Danio rerio). In GH3 cells, exposure to DiNP and its metabolites not only increased proliferation but also induced transcriptional changes in several target genes, which were different from those observed with DEHP exposure. In larval fish, a 5-day exposure to DiNP caused significant increases in thyroid hormone levels, following a similar pattern to that reported for DEHP exposure. Following exposure to DiNP, the activity of the larval fish decreased, and neurodevelopment-related genes, such as c-fos, elavl3, and mbp, were down-regulated. These changes are generally similar to those observed for DEHP. Up-regulation of gap43 and down-regulation of elavl3 gene, which are important for both thyroid hormone production and neurodevelopment, respectively, support the potential for both thyroid and behavioral disruption of DiNP. Overall, these results emphasize the need to consider the adverse thyroid and neurodevelopmental effects in developing regulations for DEHP-replacing phthalates.

Dimensionality Engineering of Magnetic Anisotropy from the Anomalous Hall Effect in Synthetic SrRuO3 Crystals.

Magnetic anisotropy in atomically thin correlated heterostructures is essential for exploring quantum magnetic phases for next-generation spintronics. Whereas previous studies have mostly focused on van der Waals systems, here we investigate the impact of dimensionality of epitaxially grown correlated oxides down to the monolayer limit on structural, magnetic, and orbital anisotropies. By designing oxide superlattices with a correlated ferromagnetic SrRuO3 and nonmagnetic SrTiO3 layers, we observed modulated ferromagnetic behavior with the change of the SrRuO3 thickness. Especially, for three-unit-cell-thick layers, we observe a significant 1500% improvement of the coercive field in the anomalous Hall effect, which cannot be solely attributed to the dimensional crossover in ferromagnetism. The atomic-scale heterostructures further reveal the systematic modulation of anisotropy for the lattice structure and orbital hybridization, explaining the enhanced magnetic anisotropy. Our findings provide valuable insights into engineering the anisotropic hybridization of synthetic magnetic crystals, offering a tunable spin order for various applications.

Advancement of electro-optical properties through changes in the physicochemical composition of hybrid thin films by doping reduced graphene oxide into a sol-gel process solution.

A hybrid thin film was fabricated by doping graphene oxide into a sol-gel solution containing a mixture of zirconium, bismuth, and indium oxide. The thin film was fabricated using a brush coating process. The graphene oxide doping ratios used were 0, 5, and 15 wt%. During the thin film fabrication process, the produced sol-gel solution generates a contractile force due to the shear stress of the brush bristles, resulting in a microgroove structure. This structure was confirmed through scanning electron microscopy analysis, which revealed the clear presence of rGO. Comparing the electrical properties of a zirconium bismuth indium oxide thin film without graphene oxide doping and a thin film doped with 15 wt% graphene oxide, the electro-optical properties were significantly improved with graphene oxide doping. In general, the threshold voltage decreased by approximately 0.42 V. In addition, bandgap measurements confirmed the improved conductivity characteristics with graphene oxide doping. Since this improvement in electro-optical properties is associated with the reduction process due to graphene oxide doping, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis was performed to assess the intensity change of each element. Based on these observations, hybrid thin films doped with graphene oxide emerge as promising candidates for next generation thin film.

Anti-Pseudomonal Effect of Nephrite-Impregnated Contact Lenses.

PURPOSE: This study compared the anti-pseudomonal effects between nephrite-impregnated contact lenses (CLs) and conventional and cosmetic CLs. METHODS: After inoculation with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.aeruginosa), we counted the number of bacteria on the CL surface and observed each surface using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). To estimate potential harm of nephrite-impregnated CLs, we conducted a safety test using a rabbit model, treated with all CL types. RESULTS: Both conventional and cosmetic CLs (n = 258 ± 2.9 × 104, 368 ± 2.2 × 104) showed significantly decreased number of attached bacteria when compared with those without nephrite impregnation (n = 134 ± 0.8 × 104, 238 ± 2.5 × 104, p < 0.0001, respectively). AFM and SEM revealed that P. aeruginosa was less attached to the nephrite-impregnated CLs than to the conventional and cosmetic CLs, although those with nephrite impregnation had rougher surface. In the safety test, there were no significant differences in the findings between four groups, and the clarity and stability of all corneas were preserved. CONCLUSIONS: Nephrite may be used as a next-generation substance to reduce infectious keratitis caused by P. aeruginosa when added to CLs.

Symmetry Engineering of Epitaxial Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 Ultrathin Films.

Robust ferroelectricity in HfO2-based ultrathin films has the potential to revolutionize nonvolatile memory applications in nanoscale electronic devices because of their compatibility with the existing Si technology. However, to fully exploit the potential of ferroelectric HfO2-based thin films, it is crucial to develop strategies for the controlled stabilization of various HfO2-based polymorphs in nanoscale heterostructures. This study demonstrates how substrate-orientation-induced anisotropic strain can engineer the crystal symmetry, structural domain morphology, and growth orientation of ultrathin Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 (HZO) films. Epitaxial ultrathin HZO films were grown on the heterostructures of (001)- and (110)-oriented La2/3Sr1/3MnO3/SrTiO3 (LSMO/STO) substrate. Various structural analyses revealed that the (110)-oriented substrate promotes a higher degree of structural order (crystallinity) with improved stability of the (111)-oriented orthorhombic phase (Pca21) of HZO. Conversely, the (001)-oriented substrate not only induces a distorted orthorhombic structure but also facilitates the partial stabilization of nonpolar phases. Electrical measurements revealed robust ferroelectric properties in epitaxial thin films without any wake-up effect, where the well-ordered crystal symmetry stabilized by STO(110) facilitated better ferroelectric characteristics. This study suggests that tuning the epitaxial growth of ferroelectric HZO through substrate orientation can improve the stability of the metastable ferroelectric orthorhombic phase and thereby offer a better understanding of device applications.

Intrinsically Stretchable Floating Gate Memory Transistors for Data Storage of Electronic Skin Devices.

To propel electronic skin (e-skin) to the next level by integrating artificial intelligence features with advanced sensory capabilities, it is imperative to develop stretchable memory device technology. A stretchable memory device for e-skin must offer, in particular, long-term data storage while ensuring the security of personal information under any type of deformation. However, despite the significance of these needs, technology related to stretchable memory devices remains in its infancy. Here, we report an intrinsically stretchable floating gate (FG) polymer memory transistor. The device features a dual-stimuli (optical and electrical) writing system to prevent easy erasure of recorded data. An FG comprising an intermixture of Ag nanoparticles and elastomer and with proper energy-band alignment between the semiconductor and dielectric facilitated sustainable memory performance, while achieving a high memory on/off ratio (>105) and a long retention time (106 s) with the ability to withstand 50% uniaxial or 30% biaxial strain. In addition, our memory transistor exhibited high mechanical durability over multiple stretching cycles (1000 times), along with excellent environmental stability with respect to factors such as temperature, moisture, air, and delamination. Finally, we fabricated a 7 × 7 active-matrix memory transistor array for personalized storage of e-skin data and successfully demonstrated its functionality.

Overcoming low initial coulombic efficiencies of Si anodes through prelithiation in all-solid-state batteries.

All-solid-state batteries using Si as the anode have shown promising performance without continual solid-electrolyte interface (SEI) growth. However, the first cycle irreversible capacity loss yields low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) of Si, limiting the energy density. To address this, we adopt a prelithiation strategy to increase ICE and conductivity of all-solid-state Si cells. A significant increase in ICE is observed for Li1Si anode paired with a lithium cobalt oxide (LCO) cathode. Additionally, a comparison with lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NCM) reveals that performance improvements with Si prelithiation is only applicable for full cells dominated by high anode irreversibility. With this prelithiation strategy, 15% improvement in capacity retention is achieved after 1000 cycles compared to a pure Si. With Li1Si, a high areal capacity of up to 10 mAh cm-2 is attained using a dry-processed LCO cathode film, suggesting that the prelithiation method may be suitable for high-loading next-generation all-solid-state batteries.

Autonomous self-healing supramolecular polymer transistors for skin electronics.

Skin-like field-effect transistors are key elements of bio-integrated devices for future user-interactive electronic-skin applications. Despite recent rapid developments in skin-like stretchable transistors, imparting self-healing ability while maintaining necessary electrical performance to these transistors remains a challenge. Herein, we describe a stretchable polymer transistor capable of autonomous self-healing. The active material consists of a blend of an electrically insulating supramolecular polymer with either semiconducting polymers or vapor-deposited metal nanoclusters. A key feature is to employ the same supramolecular self-healing polymer matrix for all active layers, i.e., conductor/semiconductor/dielectric layers, in the skin-like transistor. This provides adhesion and intimate contact between layers, which facilitates effective charge injection and transport under strain after self-healing. Finally, we fabricate skin-like self-healing circuits, including NAND and NOR gates and inverters, both of which are critical components of arithmetic logic units. This work greatly advances practical self-healing skin electronics.

Kinetically controlled metal-elastomer nanophases for environmentally resilient stretchable electronics.

Nanophase mixtures, leveraging the complementary strengths of each component, are vital for composites to overcome limitations posed by single elemental materials. Among these, metal-elastomer nanophases are particularly important, holding various practical applications for stretchable electronics. However, the methodology and understanding of nanophase mixing metals and elastomers are limited due to difficulties in blending caused by thermodynamic incompatibility. Here, we present a controlled method using kinetics to mix metal atoms with elastomeric chains on the nanoscale. We find that the chain migration flux and metal deposition rate are key factors, allowing the formation of reticular nanophases when kinetically in-phase. Moreover, we observe spontaneous structural evolution, resulting in gyrified structures akin to the human brain. The hybridized gyrified reticular nanophases exhibit strain-invariant metallic electrical conductivity up to 156% areal strain, unparalleled durability in organic solvents and aqueous environments with pH 2-13, and high mechanical robustness, a prerequisite for environmentally resilient devices.

Suicide mortality following the implementation of tobacco packaging and pricing policies in Korea: an interrupted time-series analysis.

BACKGROUND: To prevent tobacco use in Korea, the national quitline number was added to tobacco packages in December 2012, tobacco prices were raised by 80% in January 2015, and graphic health warning labels were placed on tobacco packages in December 2016. This study evaluated the association of these tobacco packaging and pricing policies with suicide mortality in Korea. METHODS: Monthly mortality from suicide was obtained from Cause-of-Death Statistics in Korea from December 2007 to December 2019. Interrupted time-series analysis was performed using segmented Poisson regression models. Relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated adjusted for suicide prevention strategies. RESULTS: Suicide mortality was 20 per 1,000,000 in December 2007 and showed a downward trend over the study period. After the implementation of tobacco packaging and pricing policies, suicide mortality immediately declined by - 0.09 percent points (95% CI = - 0.19 to 0.01; P > 0.05) for the national quitline number, - 0.22 percent points (95% CI = - 0.35 to - 0.09; P < 0.01) for tobacco prices, and - 0.30 percent points (95% CI = - 0.49 to - 0.11; P < 0.01) for graphic health warning labels. The corresponding RRs for these post-implementation changes compared with the pre-implementation level were 0.91 (95% CI = 0.83 to 1.00), 0.80 (95% CI = 0.70 to 0.91), and 0.74 (95% CI = 0.61 to 0.90), respectively. Significant associations between tobacco control policies and suicide mortality were observed even when stratified by sex and region. CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this study provide new evidence for an association between tobacco control policies and deaths by suicide. An array of effective tobacco control policies should be considered for prevention programs targeting suicide.

Thyroid and sex hormone disrupting effects of DEHTP at different life stages of zebrafish (Danio rerio).

Di(2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate (DEHTP) is an alternative plasticizer widely used in numerous consumer products, replacing di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP). Hence, DEHTP has been frequently detected in the environment and humans. As a structural isomer and functional analog of DEHP, DEHTP is a suspected endocrine disruptor. Here, we evaluated thyroid-disrupting effects of DEHTP using embryo-larval and adult male zebrafish. We also investigated its sex hormone disruption potential in the adult zebrafish. After 5- and 7-days of exposure to DEHTP, significant increases in whole-body thyroid hormonal levels were observed in the larval fish. Down-regulation of several thyroid-regulating genes, including trh, tshß, nis, and dio2, was observed, but only after 5-day exposure. Following a 21-day exposure, the adult male zebrafish exhibited a significant decrease in total triiodothyronine and an increase in thyroid-stimulating hormones. Potential changes in the deiodination of thyroid hormones, supported by the up-regulation of two deiodinases, dio1 and dio3a, along with the down-regulation of dio2, could explain the thyroid hormone changes in the adult zebrafish. Moreover, significant trends of decrease in estradiol and 11-ketotestosterone, along with increase of testosterone (T), were observed in the adult zebrafish. Up-regulation of several steroidogenic genes may explain elevated T, while exact mechanisms of action warrant further investigation. Our results demonstrate that DEHTP can cause disruptions of thyroid and sex hormones at different life stages in zebrafish.

Phase Change Heterostructure Memory with Oxygen-Doped Sb2Te3 Layers for Improved Durability and Reliability through Nano crystalline Island Formation.

Phase-change random access memory represents a notable advancement in nonvolatile memory technology; however, it faces challenges in terms of thermal stability and reliability, hindering its broader application. To mitigate these issues, doping and structural modification techniques such as phase-change heterostructures (PCH) are widely studied. Although doping typically enhances thermal stability, it can adversely affect the switching speed. Structural modifications such as PCH have struggled to sustain stable performance under high atmospheric conditions. In this study, these challenges are addressed by synergizing oxygen-doped Sb2Te3 (OST) with PCH technology. This study presents a novel approach in which OST significantly improves the crystallization temperature, power efficiency, and cyclability. Subsequently, the integration of the PCH technology bolsters the switching speed and further amplifies the device's reliability and endurance by refining the grain size (≈7 nm). The resultant OST-PCH devices exhibit exceptional performance metrics, including a drift coefficient of 0.003 in the RESET state, endurance of ≈4 × 108 cycles, an switching speed of 300 ns, and 67.6 pJ of RESET energy. These findings suggest that the OST-PCH devices show promise for integration into embedded systems, such as those found in automotive applications and Internet of Things devices.

The Peripapillary Retina - A Common Juncture in Stargardt Disease and Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension.

PURPOSE: To present the multimodal imaging and functional exam findings in a case of combined Stargardt disease and idiopathic intracranial hypertension. METHODS: The patient was evaluated with multimodal imaging including color fundus photography, short wavelength autofluorescence, spectral domain optical coherence tomography as well as functional testing such as Humphrey visual fields and full-field electroretinogram. RESULTS: A 35-year-old woman was referred for evaluation of bilateral transient visual obscurations over the course of 2 months. Optic disc edema was observed in both eyes as well as a bulls-eye maculopathy with pisciform flecks. Magnetic resonance imaging and subsequent lumbar puncture confirmed a diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension. Fundus autofluorescence demonstrated hyperautofluorescent flecks surrounding both the macula and the disc. Genetic testing and full-field electroretinogram confirmed a diagnosis of Stargardt disease. Notably, the peripapillary retina was not spared as is frequently seen in Stargardt disease, possibly due to the impact of disc edema in the area. The patient was treated with increasing doses of acetazolamide and familial testing for Stargardt disease was recommended. CONCLUSION: Both Stargardt disease and idiopathic intracranial hypertension are separately rare diseases with common anatomic intersection at the peripapillary retina. Stargardt disease typically spares the peripapillary retina; however, in the present case shows some evidence of peripapillary involvement. This finding suggests some relationship between disc edema due to idiopathic intracranial hypertension and the natural history of Stargardt disease.

Combined effects of smoking and alcohol consumption on the risk of liver cancer according to metabolic syndrome: A nested case-control study in South Korea.

Tobacco and alcohol may interact to increase the risk of liver cancer, which might be modified by other risk factors. Their combined effects in the context of metabolic syndrome (MetS) remain unclear. Given the increasing prevalence of MetS, this nested case-control study was conducted to evaluate the combined effects of smoking and alcohol consumption on liver cancer risk with stratification by MetS. We included 15,352 liver cancer patients and 92,112 matched controls who attended the nationwide general health examination during 2009-2019, using a customized database (N = 5,545,835) from the Korean National Health Insurance Service. Liver cancer risk according to smoking and alcohol consumption was estimated using conditional multivariable logistic regression. Additive and multiplicative interactions between these two factors were assessed. Results showed that in men, dual current users were at a significantly higher risk of liver cancer compared with dual nonusers, adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.61, 95% confidence interval: (1.50, 1.72). Interactions were detected between light-to-moderate alcohol consumption (0.1-28 g/day) and heavy smoking (>20 pack-years) on additive scale, relative excess risk due to interaction = 0.34 (0.16, 0.51), attributable proportion = 0.22 (0.11, 0.33), synergy index = 2.75 (1.85, 3.66), and multiplicative scale, aOR for the product term = 1.28 (1.11, 1.49). An additive interaction was also revealed between light-to-moderate drinking and light-to-moderate smoking in the MetS subgroup. In women, light-to-moderate drinking/nonsmoking was negatively associated with the risk in the non-MetS subgroup. In conclusion, a holistic health promotion program should target male dual users of tobacco cigarettes and alcohol, including light-to-moderate users, especially those with MetS.

Multicenter integrated analysis of noncoding CRISPRi screens.

The ENCODE Consortium's efforts to annotate noncoding cis-regulatory elements (CREs) have advanced our understanding of gene regulatory landscapes. Pooled, noncoding CRISPR screens offer a systematic approach to investigate cis-regulatory mechanisms. The ENCODE4 Functional Characterization Centers conducted 108 screens in human cell lines, comprising >540,000 perturbations across 24.85 megabases of the genome. Using 332 functionally confirmed CRE-gene links in K562 cells, we established guidelines for screening endogenous noncoding elements with CRISPR interference (CRISPRi), including accurate detection of CREs that exhibit variable, often low, transcriptional effects. Benchmarking five screen analysis tools, we find that CASA produces the most conservative CRE calls and is robust to artifacts of low-specificity single guide RNAs. We uncover a subtle DNA strand bias for CRISPRi in transcribed regions with implications for screen design and analysis. Together, we provide an accessible data resource, predesigned single guide RNAs for targeting 3,275,697 ENCODE SCREEN candidate CREs with CRISPRi and screening guidelines to accelerate functional characterization of the noncoding genome.

Multichannel Hierarchical Analysis of Time-Resolved Hyperspectral Data for Advanced Colorimetric E-Nose.

The colorimetric sensor-based electronic nose has been demonstrated to discriminate specific gaseous molecules for various applications, including health or environmental monitoring. However, conventional colorimetric sensor systems rely on RGB sensors, which cannot capture the complete spectral response of the system. This limitation can degrade the performance of machine learning analysis, leading to inaccurate identification of chemicals with similar functional groups. Here, we propose a novel time-resolved hyperspectral (TRH) data set from colorimetric array sensors consisting of 1D spatial, 1D spectral, and 1D temporal axes, which enables hierarchical analysis of multichannel 2D spectrograms via a convolution neural network (CNN). We assessed the outstanding classification performance of the TRH data set compared to an RGB data set by conducting a relative humidity (RH) concentration classification. The time-dependent spectral response of the colorimetric sensor was measured and trained as a CNN model using TRH and RGB sensor systems at different RH levels. While the TRH model shows a high classification accuracy of 97.5% for the RH concentration, the RGB model yields 72.5% under identical conditions. Furthermore, we demonstrated the detection of various functional volatile gases with the TRH system by using experimental and simulation approaches. The results reveal distinct spectral features from the TRH system, corresponding to changes in the concentration of each substance.
