  • Publication number: 20250113699
    Abstract: A tetrachromatic perovskite image sensor includes a quartz layer, two perovskite p-i-n-i-p components, and two optical transparent electrodes. The first perovskite p-i-n-i-p component, on one side of the quartz layer, detects ultraviolet and blue light, with two photodetection layers corresponding to detection to ultraviolet and blue wavelength intervals. The second component, on the opposite side, detects green and red light, with layers for detecting green and red wavelength intervals. Optical transparent electrodes on both sides of the quartz layer apply bias collectively to both perovskite p-i-n-i-p components.

  • Patent number: 11952581
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the production of polyunsaturated fatty acids in an organism by introducing, into the organism, nucleic acids which encode polypeptides with ?5-elongase activity. Advantageously, these nucleic acids can be expressed in the organism together with further nucleic acids which encode polypeptides of the biosynthesis of the fatty acid or lipid metabolism. Especially advantageous are nucleic acids which encode ?6-desaturases, ?5-desaturases, ?4-desaturases and/or ?6-elongases. These desaturases and elongases are advantageously derived from Thalassiosira, Euglena or Ostreococcus. The invention furthermore relates to a process for the production of oils and/or triacylglycerides with an elevated content of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, and oils and/or triacylglycerides thus obtained.
