    AbstractDye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) without using transparent conducting oxides (TCO) electrode can be produced at much lower cost with a flexible structure. A new type of DSCs using flexible stainless steel mesh sheets based electrode is reported in this research. The working electrode of DSCs is processed with conductive and flexible stainless mesh coated with metal oxides (TiO2) layer either by sputtering, sol gel or dip coating methods. Structures of the TCO-less DSCs sample is a stainless mesh for working electrode/dye sensitized TiO2 layer/liquid type electrolyte with polymer film/Pt doped Ti plate for counter electrode. The metal oxide coated stainless mesh sample showed higher photo-current conversion efficiency in general. The best cell performance in this experiment showed the efficiency of 3.11% (Voc = 0.58V, Jsc = 11.98mA/cm2, ff = 0.45)

    We present a COVID-19 DNA-RNA genetic code where A=T=U=31% and C=G=19%, which has been developed from a base matrix CUAG where C, U, A, and G are RNA bases while C, U, A, and T are DNA bases that E. Chargaff found them complementary like A=T=U=30%, and C=G=20% from his experimental results, which implied the structure of DNA double helix and its complementary combination. Unfortunately, they have not been solved mathematically yet. Therefore, in this paper, we present a simple solution by the information theory of a doubly stochastic matrix over the Shannon symmetric channel as well as prove it mathematically. Furthermore, we show that DNA-RNA genetic code is one kind of block circulant Jacket matrix. Moreover, general patterns by block circulant, upper-lower, and left-right scheme are presented, which are applied to the correct communication as well as means the healthy condition because it perfectly consists of 4 bases. Henceforth, we also provide abnormal patterns by block circulant, upper-lower, and left-right scheme, which cover the distorted signal as well as COVID-19
