Pesticides and Methods For Treating Cercospora Leaf Spot Disease
Cercospora leaf spot (CLS), caused by Cercospora beticola, is the most widespread and destructive foliar disease in sugar beet crops, often leading to yield losses of up to 50%. Traditional control methods rely on fungicide sprays and resistant cultivars. However, fungicide-resistant fungal strains, environmental wash-off due to rain, and frequent reapplication...

Aerosol Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition of Silicon Thin Films
Silicon thin films play a crucial role in the solar and microelectronics industries. Currently, these films are primarily produced using expensive low-pressure plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), which relies on gaseous silanes but suffers from low precursor utilization efficiency. The instability and low vapor pressure of liquid hydrosilanes...

Silicon Nanowires by Electrospinning Liquid Silane-Containing Precursors
Scientists at North Dakota State University (NDSU) have developed a process for continuous high-volume production of silicon micro- and nano-wires based on electrospinning. The technology is based on the ability to use liquid silane as a starting material, so the length of the wires is essentially unlimited. The wires can be produced with a variety...
