文摘Achieving high-efficiency photoluminescence in trivalent lanthanides(Ln^(3+))requires precise crystalfield perturbation to overcome parity-forbidden 4f-transitions and suppress nonradiative decay.However,realizing such control remains challenging,even in well-optimized Ln^(3+) -doped nanocrystals.Here,by exploiting the atomically precise structure of metal nanoclusters,we demonstrate symmetry engineering in the Eu_(2)Ti_(4) nanoclusters through stepwise ligand substitution(BA/Phen→FBA/Phen→FBA/Bpy.BA:benzoicacid;Phen:1,10-phenanthroline;FBA:p-fluorobenzoicacid;Bpy:2,2'-bipyridine).The incorporation of FBA effectively suppresses nonradiative relaxation,while the flexible Bpy ligand induces symmetry reduction from D_(2d) to C_(2v) through coordination modulation,yielding a high photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY)of 91.2%in the Ln^(3+) cluster systems.The transient-absorption,Judd-Ofelt theory,crystal-field analysis,and temperature-dependent photophysical studies elucidated the underlying modulation mechanisms.Furthermore,these clusters exhibit promising potential for optoelectronic applications,offering a new design strategy for high-performance luminescent materials.

文摘At low-Reynolds-number,the performance of airfoil is known to be greatly affected by the formation and burst of a laminar separation bubble(LSB),which requires a more precise simulation of the delicate flow structures.A framework based on the interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin method and large eddy simulation approach was adopted in the present study.The performances of various subgrid models,including the Smagorinsky(SM)model,the dynamic Smagorinsky(DSM)model,the wall-adapting local-eddy-viscosity(WALE)model,and the VREMAN model,have been analyzed through flow simulations of the SD7003 airfoil at a Reynolds number of 60000.It turns out that the SM model fails to predict the emergence of LSB,even modified by the Van-Driest damping function.On the contrary,the best agreement is generally achieved by the WALE model in terms of flow separation,reattachment,and transition locations,together with the aerodynamic loads.Furthermore,the influence of numerical dissipation has also been discussed through the comparison of skin friction and resolved Reynolds stresses.As numerical dissipation decreases,the prediction accuracy of the WALE model degrades.Meanwhile,nonlinear variation could be observed from the performances of the DSM model,which could be attributed to the interaction between the numerical dissipation and the subgrid model.

文摘Harnessing solar energy to enhance the rechargeable zinc-air batteries(RZABs)performance is a promising avenue toward sustainable energy storage and conversion.Simultaneously enhancing light-absorption capacity and carrier separation efficiency in nanomaterials,as well as improving electrical conductivity and configuration for electrocatalysis,presents a formidable challenge due to inherent trade-offs and interdependencies.Here,we have developed a Janus dual-atom catalyst(JDAC)with bifunctional centers for efficient charge separation and electrocatalytic performance through a bipolar doping strategy.The in situ X-ray absorption near-edge structure and Raman spectroscopy analyses demonstrated that the Ni and Fe centers in JDAC not only function as effective sites for oxygen evolution reaction and oxygen reduction reaction,respectively,but also serve as efficient hole and electron enrichment sites,effectively suppressing photoelectron recombination while enhancing photocurrent generation.As a result,the assembled JDAC-based lightassisted RZABs exhibited extraordinary stability at large current densities.This work delivers pivotal insight to design Janus dual-atom catalysts that efficiently convert solar energy into electric and chemical energy.

文摘Algal copper uptake(i.e.,Cu bioavailability)in the euphotic zone plays a vital role in algal photosynthesis and respiration,affecting the primary productivity and the source and sink of atmospheric carbon.Algal Cu uptake is controlled by natural dissolved organic Cu(DOCu)speciation(i.e.,complexed with the dissolved organic matter)that conventionally could be tested by model prediction or molecular-level characterizations in the lab,while DOCu uptake are hardly directly assessed.Thus,the new chemistrybiology insight into the mechanisms of the Cu uptake process in algae is urgent.The DOCu speciation transformation(organic DOCu to free Cu(II)ions),enzymatic reduction-induced valence change(reduction of free Cu(II)to Cu(I)ions),and algal Cu uptake at the algae-water interface are imitated.Herein,an intelligent system with DOCu colorimetric sensor is developed for real-time monitoring of newly generated Cu(I)ions.Deep learning with whole sample image-based characterization and powerful feature extraction capabilities facilitates colorimetric measurement.In this context,the Cu bioavailability with 7 kinds of organic ligands(e.g.,amino acids,organic acids,carbohydrates)can be predicted by the mimetic intelligent biosensor within 15.0min,i.e.,the DOCu uptake and speciation is successfully predicted and streamlined by the biomimetic approach.

文摘Manganese dioxide(MnO_(2))electrode material possesses the advantages of high energy density,structural diversity and high modification potential.This allows it become one of the important cathodes for aqueous zinc ion battery.However,the applications are limited by the poor electrical conductivity,narrow layer spacing and the ease of dissolution.Herein,we prepare MnO_(2)-PVP@0.03GO composites by the co-modification of polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP)pre-insertion layer and graphene oxide(GO)self-assembly layer.The Zn//MnO_(2)-PVP@0.03GO cells deliver a discharge specific capacity of 442 mAh/g at a current density of 0.2 A/g.It also maintains 100%capacity for 1000 times cycling at 1 A/g.The assembled soft package batteries demonstrate superior flexibility and adaptability under different bending conditions.

文摘Long-term excessive nitrogen(N)application neither increases nor enhances grain yield and N use efficiency(NUE)of maize,yet the mechanisms involving root morphological and physiological characteristics remain unclear.This study aimed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying stagnant grain yield under excessive N application by examining root morphological and physiological characteristics.A 10-year N fertilizer trial was conducted in Jilin Province,Northeast China,cultivating maize at three N fertilizer levels(zero N,N0;recommended N,N2;and high N level,N4)from 2019 to 2021.Two widely cultivated maize genotypes,‘Xianyu 335’(XY335)and‘Zhengdan 958’(ZD958),were evaluated.Grain yield,N content,root morphology,and physiological characteristics were analyzed to assess the relationships between N uptake,N utilization,plant growth,and root systems under different N treatments.Compared to N0,root biomass,post-silking N uptake,and grain yield improved significantly with increased N input,while no significant differences emerged between recommended N and high N.High N application enhanced root length and root surface area but decreased root activity(measured by TTC(2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride)method),nitrate reductase activity,and root activity absorbing area across genotypes.Root length and root to shoot ratio negatively affected N uptake(by-1.2 and-24.6%),while root surface area,root activity,nitrate reductase activity,and root activity absorbing area contributed positively.The interaction between cultivar and N application significantly influenced NUE.XY335 achieved the highest NUE(11.6%)and N recovery efficiency(18.4%)through superior root surface area(23.6%),root activity(12.5%),nitrate reductase activity(8.3%),and root activity absorbing area(6.9%)compared to other treatments.Recommended N application enhanced Post N uptake,NUE,and grain yield through improved root characteristics,while high N application failed to increase or decreased NUE by reducing these parameters.This study demonstrates that root surface area,root activity,nitrate reductase activity,and root activity absorbing area limit NUE increase under high N application.

文摘OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of α-lipoic acid(ALA) plus epalrestat combination therapy in the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN). DATA SOURCES: The electronic databases of Pub Med, Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Library, the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, the Wanfang Database and the Chinese Biomedical Database were used to retrieve relevant studies without language restrictions. The search was conducted from the inception of each database to 7 October 2016. The key terms were(diabetic peripheral neuropathy or diabetic neuropathy or DPN) AND(α-lipoic acid or lipoic acid or thioctic acid) AND epalrestat. DATA SELECTION: All of the eligible studies met the following inclusion criteria:(1) Randomized controlled trials that compared efficacy and safety of epalrestat plus ALA combination therapy versus epalrestat or ALA monotherapy in patients with DPN.(2) The minimum duration of treatment was 2 weeks.(3) The DPN patients were diagnosed using the World Health Organization standardized type 2 diabetes mellitus and DPN criteria.(4) Studies contained at least one measure that could reflect the efficacy of the drug and nerve conduction velocities. Studies in which the control group used epalrestat or ALA combined with other drugs were excluded. Statistical analyses were performed using STATA software for meta-analysis. OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcomes were the therapeutic efficacy, median motor nerve conduction velocity(MNCV), median sensory nerve conduction velocity(SNCV), peroneal MNCV and peroneal SNCV.RESULTS: Twenty studies with 1894 DPN patients were included, including 864 patients in the ALA plus epalrestat group, 473 in the ALA group and 557 in the epalrestat group. The efficacy of ALA plus epalrestat combination therapy was superior to ALA and epalrestat monotherapies(RR = 1.29, 95% CI: 1.21–1.38; RR = 1.43, 95% CI: 1.34–1.54, respectively). ALA plus epalrestat combination therapy also significantly improved median MNCV(WMD = 5.41, 95% CI: 2.07–8.75), median SNCV(WMD = 5.87, 95% CI: 1.52–10.22), peroneal MNCV(WMD = 5.59, 95% CI: 2.70–8.47) and peroneal SNCV(WMD = 4.57, 95% CI: 2.46–6.68).CONCLUSION: ALA plus epalrestat combination therapy was superior to ALA and epalrestat monotherapies for clinical efficacy and nerve conduction velocities in patients with DPN.
