And the formation mechanism of the scattering resonance states of this reaction was well interpreted with the partial potential energy surface. The scattering resonance states of this reaction should belong to Feshbach resonance because of the coupling of the vibrational mode and the translational mode. With the one-dimensional square potential well model, the resonance width and lifetime of the I＋HI（v=0）→IH（v＇=0）＋I state-to-state reaction were calculated, which preferably explained the high-resolved threshold photodetachment spectroscopy of the IHI- anion performed by Neumark et al..展开更多

IOL power calculation methods have evolved and innovated throughout time, from early theoretical and regression formulas to nonlinear formulas for estimating effective lens position (ELP), multivariable formulas, and innovative formulas that use optical principles and AI-based online formulas. This paper thoroughly discusses the development and iteration of traditional IOL calculation formulas, the emergence of new IOL calculation formulas, and the selection of IOL calculation formulas for different patients in the era of refractive cataract surgery, serving as a reference for “personalized” IOL implantation in clinical practice.展开更多

The microstructural evolution and wettability of the HEA filler were analyzed, with particular attention to the surface energy, interfacial stability, and electronic properties of the HEA filler/rare earth silicate coating system, as determined by density functional theory (DFT). As Nb diffused into the interface and the ErNbO_(4) phase formed, the wetting angle gradually decreased to 23.12° The effective wetting and spreading of the HEA brazing filler on the rare earth silicate coating surface are strongly correlated with the formation of the ErNbO_(4) phase at the interface. Furthermore, DFT calculations reveal that the interfacial bonding energy between the BCC' and FCC' phases and the ErNbO_(4) phase, after the wetting reaction, is significantly higher than the bonding energy between the initial filler and Er_(2)Si_(2)O_(7). This finding suggests that the formation of the ErNbO_(4) phase improves the wetting and spreading behavior of the filler.展开更多

文摘Achieving the detachment of divertor can help to alleviate excessive heat load and sputtering problems on the target plates,thereby extending the lifetime of divertor components for fusion devices.In order to provide a fast but relatively reliable prediction of plasma parameters along the flux tube for future device design,a one-dimensional(1D)modeling code for the operating point of impurity seeded detached divertor is developed based on Python language,which is a fluid model based on previous work(Plasma Phys.Control.Fusion 58045013(2016)).The experimental observation of the onset of divertor detachment by neon(Ne)and argon(Ar)seeding in EAST is well reproduced by using the 1D modeling code.The comparison between the 1D modeling and two-dimensional(2D)simulation by the SOLPS-ITER code for CFETR detachment operation with Ne and Ar seeding also shows that they are in good agreement.We also predict the radiative power loss and corresponding impurity concentration requirement for achieving divertor detachment via different impurity seeding under high heating power conditions in EAST and CFETR phase II by using the 1D model.Based on the predictions,the optimized parameter space for divertor detachment operation on EAST and CFETR is also determined.Such a simple but reliable 1D model can provide a reasonable parameter input for a detailed and accurate analysis by 2D or three-dimensional(3D)modeling tools through rapid parameter scanning.

文摘Based on the vibrational potential curves coupled with the minimum energy reaction path, the partial potential energy surface of the reaction I＋HI→IH＋I was constructed at the QCISD（T）//MP4SDQ level with pseudo potential method. And the formation mechanism of the scattering resonance states of this reaction was well interpreted with the partial potential energy surface. The scattering resonance states of this reaction should belong to Feshbach resonance because of the coupling of the vibrational mode and the translational mode. With the one-dimensional square potential well model, the resonance width and lifetime of the I＋HI（v=0）→IH（v＇=0）＋I state-to-state reaction were calculated, which preferably explained the high-resolved threshold photodetachment spectroscopy of the IHI- anion performed by Neumark et al..

文摘In sub nanometer carbon nanotubes,water exhibits unique dynamic characteristics,and in the high-frequency region of the infrared spectrum,where the stretching vibrations of the internal oxygen-hydrogen(O-H)bonds are closely related to the hydrogen bonds(H-bonds)network between water molecules.Therefore,it is crucial to analyze the relationship between these two aspects.In this paper,the infrared spectrum and motion characteristics of the stretching vibrations of the O-H bonds in one-dimensional confined water(1DCW)and bulk water(BW)in(6,6)single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWNT)are studied by molecular dynamics simulations.The results show that the stretching vibrations of the two O-H bonds in 1DCW exhibit different frequencies in the infrared spectrum,while the O-H bonds in BW display two identical main frequency peaks.Further analysis using the spring oscillator model reveals that the difference in the stretching amplitude of the O-H bonds is the main factor causing the change in vibration frequency,where an increase in stretching amplitude leads to a decrease in spring stiffness and,consequently,a lower vibration frequency.A more in-depth study found that the interaction of H-bonds between water molecules is the fundamental cause of the increased stretching amplitude and decreased vibration frequency of the O-H bonds.Finally,by analyzing the motion trajectory of the H atoms,the dynamic differences between 1DCW and BW are clearly revealed.These findings provide a new perspective for understanding the behavior of water molecules at the nanoscale and are of significant importance in advancing the development of infrared spectroscopy detection technology.
文摘As cataract surgery progresses from “restoration of sight” to “refractive correction”, precise prediction of intraocular lens (IOL) power is critical for enhancing postoperative visual quality in patients. IOL power calculation methods have evolved and innovated throughout time, from early theoretical and regression formulas to nonlinear formulas for estimating effective lens position (ELP), multivariable formulas, and innovative formulas that use optical principles and AI-based online formulas. This paper thoroughly discusses the development and iteration of traditional IOL calculation formulas, the emergence of new IOL calculation formulas, and the selection of IOL calculation formulas for different patients in the era of refractive cataract surgery, serving as a reference for “personalized” IOL implantation in clinical practice.

文摘Using the Bose-Fermi mapping method,we obtain the exact ground state wavefunction of one-dimensional(1D)Bose gas with the zero-range dipolar interaction in the strongly repulsive contact interaction limit.Its ground state density distributions for both repulsive and attractive dipole interactions are exhibited.It is shown that in the case of the finite dipole interaction the density profiles do not change obviously with the increase of dipole interaction and display the typical shell structure of Tonks-Girardeau gases.As the repulsive dipole interaction is greatly strong,the density decreases at the center of the trap and displays a sunken valley.As the attractive dipole interaction increases,the density displays more oscillations and sharp peaks appear in the strong attraction limit,which mainly originate from the atoms occupying the low single particle levels.

文摘Two-dimensional(2D)transition metal sulfides(TMDs)are emerging and highly well received 2D materials,which are considered as an ideal 2D platform for studying various electronic properties and potential applications due to their chemical diversity.Converting 2D TMDs into one-dimensional(1D)TMDs nanotubes can not only retain some advantages of 2D nanosheets but also providing a unique direction to explore the novel properties of TMDs materials in the 1D limit.However,the controllable preparation of high-quality nanotubes remains a major challenge.It is very necessary to review the advanced development of one-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide nanotubes from preparation to application.Here,we first summarize a series of bottom-up synthesis methods of 1D TMDs,such as template growth and metal catalyzed method.Then,top-down synthesis methods are summarized,which included selfcuring and stacking of TMDs nanosheets.In addition,we discuss some key applications that utilize the properties of 1D-TMDs nanotubes in the areas of catalyst preparation,energy storage,and electronic devices.Last but not least,we prospect the preparation methods of high-quality 1D-TMDs nanotubes,which will lay a foundation for the synthesis of high-performance optoelectronic devices,catalysts,and energy storage components.

文摘Adjustable or programmable metamaterials offer versatile functions,while the complex multi-dimensional regulation increases workload,and hinders their applications in practical scenarios.To address these challenges,we present a mechanically programmable acoustic metamaterial for real-time focal tuning via one-dimensional phase-gradient modulation in this paper.The device integrates a phase gradient structure with concave cavity channels and an x-shaped telescopic mechanical framework,enabling dynamic adjustment of inter-unit spacing(1 mm-3 mm)through a microcontroller-driven motor.By modulating the spacing between adjacent channels,the phase gradient is precisely controlled,allowing continuous focal shift from 50 mm to 300 mm along the x-axis at 7500 Hz.Broadband focusing is also discussed in the range6800 Hz-8100 Hz,with transmission coefficients exceeding 0.5,ensuring high efficiency and robust performance.Experimental results align closely with simulations,validating the design's effectiveness and adaptability.Unlike conventional programmable metamaterials requiring multi-dimensional parameter optimization,this approach simplifies real-time control through single-axis mechanical adjustment,significantly reducing operational complexity.Due to the advantages of broadband focusing,simple control mode,real-time monitoring,and so on,the device may have extensive applications in the fields of acoustic imaging,nondestructive testing,ultrasound medical treatment,etc.

文摘The oxygen evolution reaction(OER),a critical half-reaction in water electrolysis,has garnered significant attention.However,sluggish OER kinetics has emerged as a major impediment to efficient electrochemical energy conversion.There is an urgent need to design novel electrocatalysts with optimized OER kinetics and enhanced intrinsic activity to improve overall OER performance.Herein,one-dimensional(1D)nanocomposites with high electrocatalytic activity were developed through the deposition of CoFePBA nanocubes onto the surface of MnO_(2) nanowires.The electronic structure of the nanocomposite surface was modified,and the synergistic effects between transition metals were leveraged to enhance catalytic activity through the deposition of Prussian blue analog(PBA)nanocubes on manganese dioxide nanowires.Specifically,CoFePBA featured an open crystal structure that offiered numerous electrochemical active sites and efficient charge transfer pathways.Additionally,the synergistic interactions between Co and Fe significantly reduced the OER overpotential.Additionally,the 1D rigid MnO_(2) acted as protective armor,ensuring the stability of active sites within CoFePBA during the OER.The synthesized MnO_(2)@CoFePBA achieved an overpotential of 1.614 V at 10 mA/cm^(2) and a small Tafel slope of 94 mV/dec and demonstrated stable performance for over 200 h.This work offers new insights into the rational design of various PBA-based nanocomposites with high activity and stability.

文摘The effects of pressure on the structural stability,elasticity,electronic properties,and thermodynamic properties of Al,Al_(3)Cu,Al_(2)Cu,Al_(4)Cu_(9),AlCu_(3),and Cu were investigated using first-principles calculations.The experimental results indicate that the calculated equilibrium lattice constant,elastic constant,and elastic modulus agree with both theoretical and experimental data at 0 GPa.The Young's modulus,bulk modulus,and shear modulus increase with increasing pressure.The influence of pressure on mechanical properties is explained from a chemical bond perspective.By employing the quasi-harmonic approximation model of phonon calculation,the temperature and pressure dependence of thermodynamic parameters in the range of 0 to 800 K and 0 to 100 GPa are determined.The findings demonstrate that the thermal capacity and coefficient of thermal expansion increase with increasing temperature and decrease with increasing pressure.This study provides fundamental data and support for experimental investigations and further theoretical research on the properties of aluminum-copper intermetallic compounds.

文摘The vacuum reactive wetting and brazing of Er_(2)Si_(2)O_(7)/MoSi_(2) coatings were investigated using a (CoFeNiCrMn)_(88)Nb_(12) high-entropy alloy (HEA) brazing filler. The microstructural evolution and wettability of the HEA filler were analyzed, with particular attention to the surface energy, interfacial stability, and electronic properties of the HEA filler/rare earth silicate coating system, as determined by density functional theory (DFT). As Nb diffused into the interface and the ErNbO_(4) phase formed, the wetting angle gradually decreased to 23.12° The effective wetting and spreading of the HEA brazing filler on the rare earth silicate coating surface are strongly correlated with the formation of the ErNbO_(4) phase at the interface. Furthermore, DFT calculations reveal that the interfacial bonding energy between the BCC' and FCC' phases and the ErNbO_(4) phase, after the wetting reaction, is significantly higher than the bonding energy between the initial filler and Er_(2)Si_(2)O_(7). This finding suggests that the formation of the ErNbO_(4) phase improves the wetting and spreading behavior of the filler.

文摘Control of hyperfine interaction strength of shallow donors in Si is one of the central issues in realizing Kane quantum computers.First-principles calculations on the hyperfine Stark shift of shallow donors are challenging since large supercells are needed to accommodate the delocalized donor wave functions.In this work,we investigated the hyperfine Stark shift and its strain tunability for shallow donors P and As in Si using the potential patching method based on first-principles density functional theory calculations.The good agreement between our calculations and experimental results confirms that the potential patching method is a feasible and accurate first-principles approach for studying wave-function-related properties of shallow impurities,such as the Stark shift parameter.It is further shown that the application of strain expands the range of hyperfine Stark shift and helps improve the response of shallow donor based qubit gates.The results could be useful for developing quantum computing architectures based on shallow donors in Si.
文摘Steel-concrete composite beams,due to their superior mechanical properties,are widely utilized in engineering structures.This study systematically investigates the calculation methods for internal forces and load-bearing capacity of composite beams based on elastic theory,with a focus on the transformed section method and its application under varying neutral axis positions.By deriving the geometric characteristics of the transformed section and incorporating a reduction factor accounting for slip effects,a computational model for sectional stress and ultimate load-bearing capacity is established.The results demonstrate that the slip effect significantly influences the flexural load-bearing capacity of composite beams.The proposed reduction factor,which considers the influence of the steel beam’s top flange thickness,offers higher accuracy compared to traditional methods.These findings provide a theoretical foundation for the design and analysis of composite beams,with significant practical engineering value.

文摘One-dimensional nano-grating standard(ODNGS)is widely recognized as a crucial nanometric standard for metrological technology.However,achieving the ultratiny size of ODNGS with high consistent uniformity and low roughness by conventional processes such as the inductively coupled plasma(ICP)etching methodpresents a significant challenge in obtaining accurate calibration values.In this work,a 50-nm ODNGS with a conformal buffer layer(Al_(2)O_(3))is successfully obtained,indicating outstanding stability and abrasion resistance.Remarkably,the introduction of hydrogen silsesquioxane(HSQ)and amorphous Al_(2)O_(3)simultaneously guarantees an incredibly small expanded uncertainty(0.5 nm)and repeatability of the standard uniformity(less than 0.3 nm)in the grating dimensions.TheⅠ-Ⅴcurves of ODNGS with an Al_(2)O_(3)buffer layer at room temperature(RT)and200℃are depicted respectively to showcase the sustained favorable insulation properties.Notably,the nanostructure fluctuation,line edge roughness(LER)and line width roughness(LWR)of the standard can be decreased obviously by 64.1%,63%and 70%,respectively.Our results suggest that the ODNGS with Al_(2)O_(3)exhibits exceptional precision and robust calibration reliability for calibrating nanoscale measuring instruments.It holds tremendous potential for manufacturing high-precision nanostructures and grating arrays with precisely controllable dimensions,which will play a pivotal role in the fabrication of microfluidics chips,metasurface and photodetectors in the future.

文摘Understanding the adsorption behavior of heavy metals and metalloids on clay minerals is essential for remediating heavy metal-contaminated soils.The adsorption of heavy metals and metalloids on illite(001)and sodium montmorillonite(Na-MMT)(001)surfaces was investigated using first-principles calculations in this study,especially As atom and H_(3)AsO_(3) molecule.The adsorption energies of the As atom were−1.94 eV on the illite(001)and−0.56 eV on the Na-MMT(001),whereas,the adsorption energies of the H_(3)AsO_(3) molecule were−1.40 eV on illite(001)and−1.01 eV on Na-MMT(001).The above results indicate that the adsorption was more energetically favorable on illite(001).Additionally,compared to Na-MMT(001),there were more significant interactions between the atoms/molecules on the illite(001).After As atom and H_(3)AsO_(3) molecule adsorption,the electrons were transferred from mineral surface atoms to the adsorbates on both illite(001)and Na-MMT(001)surfaces.Moreover,the adsorption of As atom on illite(001)and Na-MMT(001)surfaces were more energy favorable compared to Hg,Cd,and Cr atoms.Overall,this work provides new insights into the adsorption behavior of As atoms and As molecules on illite and Na-MMT.The results indicate that illite rich soils are more prone to contamination by arsenic compared to soils primarily composed of Na-MMT minerals.
