文摘Accelerating the development of new quality productive forces(NQPF),with innovation at its core,has become essential for firm growth in the new era.Drawing on financial data from China's A-share listed companies spanning the period 2010–2023,this study empirically investigates the impact of entrepreneurial spirit on firm-level NQPF.The results indicate that entrepreneurial spirit significantly promotes firm-level NQPF.Mechanism analysis indicates that entrepreneurial effort—underpinned by technological capital accumulation,effective incentive and constraint mechanisms,and a competitive market environment—plays a mediating role in this relationship.Further heterogeneity analysis reveals that,amid China's economic transition,the positive effects of entrepreneurial spirit are more pronounced in non-state-owned enterprises,high-tech firms,and newly established firms.Accordingly,systematic efforts should be pursued across the technological,organizational,and environmental(TOE)dimensions to optimize the cultivation of entrepreneurial spirit.In particular,greater emphasis should be placed on productive entrepreneurial spirit and the constructive role of entrepreneurial effort,so as to fully leverage their contribution to the advancement of firm-level NQPF.

文摘It remains difficult to automate the creation and validation of Unified Modeling Language(UML)dia-grams due to unstructured requirements,limited automated pipelines,and the lack of reliable evaluation methods.This study introduces a cohesive architecture that amalgamates requirement development,UML synthesis,and multimodal validation.First,LLaMA-3.2-1B-Instruct was utilized to generate user-focused requirements.Then,DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B applies its reasoning skills to transform these requirements into PlantUML code.Using this dual-LLM pipeline,we constructed a synthetic dataset of 11,997 UML diagrams spanning six major diagram families.Rendering analysis showed that 89.5%of the generated diagrams compile correctly,while invalid cases were detected automatically.To assess quality,we employed a multimodal scoring method that combines Qwen2.5-VL-3B,LLaMA-3.2-11B-Vision-Instruct and Aya-Vision-8B,with weights based on MMMU performance.A study with 94 experts revealed strong alignment between automatic and manual evaluations,yielding a Pearson correlation of r=0.82 and a Fleiss’Kappa of 0.78.This indicates a high degree of concordance between automated metrics and human judgment.Overall,the results demonstrated that our scoring system is effective and that the proposed generation pipeline produces UML diagrams that are both syntactically correct and semantically coherent.More broadly,the system provides a scalable and reproducible foundation for future work in AI-driven software modeling and multimodal verification.

文摘The development of efficient photocatalysts for crucial organic transformation,such as aerobic oxidation,remains challenging.Although powdered porous materials offer abundant accessible active sites,their application in liquid-phase catalysis is often limited by insufficient light absorption and inevitable charge recombination,which are inherent drawbacks of conventional heterogeneous catalysts.Here,through rational design and nanoscale-engineering of porous aromatic frameworks(PAFs)comprising porphyrin and porous organic cage,a quasi-homogeneous porous photocatalyst with high catalytic activity and controllable dimension was developed.The interface-directed growth in oil-in-water emulsion shaped the morphology of photoactive PAFs from powders to nanoflakes,which facilitated the light absorbance and catalyst-substrate interaction.Compared with PAF powders,PAF nanoflakes exhibited superior photocatalytic activity for aerobic oxidation.For mustard gas simulant(2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide,CEES),PAF nanoflakes exhibited ultrafast detoxification rates in room air with a half-life(t_(1/2))as fast as 26s,which even exceeded other catalysts in pure oxygen.It also completely catalyzed the aerobic oxidation of thioether within 15 min,which is almost the fastest rate among any reported organic photocatalysts.Furthermore,the efficient catalytic performance under mild conditions caused by improved light enrichment,surface charge transfer and carrier lifetime was elucidated.

文摘The recovery of precious metals(PMs)from secondary resources is critical for addressing global supply-chain vulnerabilities and sustainable resource utilization.This review systematically examines the transformative potential of metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)as next-generation adsorbents for PM recovery,focusing on their synthesis,functionalization,and multiscale adsorption mechanisms.We critically analyze conventional pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical methods and highlight their limitations in terms of selectivity,energy consumption,and secondary pollution.In contrast,MOFs offer tunable porosity,abundant active sites,and tunable surface chemistry,enabling efficient PM capture via synergistic physical and chemical adsorption.Advanced modification techniques,including direct synthesis and post-synthetic modification,are reviewed to propose strategies for enhancing the adsorption kinetics and selectivity for Au,Ag,Pt,and Pd.Key structure-property relationships are established through multiscale characterization and thermodynamic models,revealing the critical roles of hierarchical porosity,soft donor atoms,and framework stability.Industrial challenges,such as aqueous stability and scalability,are addressed via Zr-O bond strengthening,hydrophobic functionalization,and support immobilization.This study consolidates the experimental and theoretical advances in MOF-based PM recovery and provides a roadmap for translating laboratory innovations into practical applications within the circular-economy framework.

文摘This study presents a novel polyoxometalate(POM)constructed crystalline inorganic framework,featuring a 2D layered architecture with irregular porosity and inherent proton sources.This unique configuration establishes an intrinsic hydrogen bonding network that facilitates proton hopping(Grotthuss mechanism),achieving a[100]directional proton conductivity of 1.75×10^(-3)S cm^(-1)under a low relative humidity(RH)of 35%at 298 K.Notably,under elevated conditions(338 K,95%RH),it attains a superprotonic conductivity of 1.61 S cm^(-1),representing one of the highest values recorded for framework materials to date.Analysis of the molecular structure,pore geometry characteristics and topological connectivity,and water vapor adsorption experiment(offering proton diffusion coefficient),indicates that the exceptional water-mediated proton dynamics stem from the interlayer S-shaped irregular pore channels,which probably induce a siphon-like effect to significantly enhance the transport of hydrated protons under the vehicle mechanism.This work not only proposes a POM strategy for constructing 2D inorganic frameworks but also reveals the irregular pore channel-enhanced proton dynamics,providing new insights into the optimization of proton conductors.

文摘Polyimide-linkage covalent organic frameworks(PI-COFs),as a subclass of the COFs material family,featuring the unique combination of excellent thermal stability of polyimide,tunable pore sizes,as well as high crystallinity and surface area of COFs,are expected to be a novel type of promising crystalline porous material with potential applications in adsorption and separation,catalysis,chemical sensing,and energy storage.Therefore,it is increasingly important to summarize polyimide-linkage in COFs and related applications and provide in-depth insight to accelerate future development.In this review,we offer a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in PI-COFs,emphasizing their synthesis methods,design principles and applications.Finally,our brief outlooks on the current challenges and future developments of PI-COFs are provided.Overall,this review aims to guide the recent and future development of PI-COFs.

文摘Cellulose frameworks have emerged as promising materials for light management due to their exceptional light-scattering capabilities and sustainable nature.Conventional biomass-derived cellulose frameworks face a fundamental trade-off between haze and transparency,coupled with impractical thicknesses(≥1 mm).Inspired by squid’s skin-peeling mechanism,this work develops a peroxyformic acid(HCOOOH)-enabled precision peeling strategy to isolate intact 10-μm-thick bamboo green(BG)frameworks—100×thinner than wood-based counterparts while achieving an unprecedented optical performance(88%haze with 80%transparency).This performance surpasses delignified biomass(transparency<40%at 1 mm)and matches engineered cellulose composites,yet requires no energy-intensive nanofibrillation.The preserved native cellulose I crystalline structure(64.76%crystallinity)and wax-coated uniaxial fibril alignment(Hermans factor:0.23)contribute to high mechanical strength(903 MPa modulus)and broadband light scattering.As a light-management layer in polycrystalline silicon solar cells,the BG framework boosts photoelectric conversion efficiency by 0.41%absolute(18.74%→19.15%),outperforming synthetic anti-reflective coatings.The work establishes a scalable,waste-to-wealth route for optical-grade cellulose materials in next-generation optoelectronics.

文摘Three-dimensional supramolecular organic frameworks with precisely tunable pore sizes are highly demanded for a wide range of applications,e.g.,encapsulating enzymes to enhance their stability,activity,and reusability.However,precise control and tune the pore size of such frameworks still remains a significant challenge to date.In this study,we constructed supramolecular polymer frameworks using rigid tetrahedral star polyisocyanides with tunable length and sufficiently narrow distribution as building block.First,a series of tetrahedral four-arm star polyisocyanides with controlled chain lengths and narrow molecular weight distributions was prepared via the Pd(Ⅱ)-catalyzed living isocyanide polymerization.Then 2-ureido-4[1H]-pyrimidinone(Upy) unit was installed onto each chain-end of polyisocyanide arms via post-polymerization functionalization.Leveraging the supramolecular hydrogen bonding interactions between the terminal Upy units,well-ordered supramolecular polymer frameworks were readily obtained.Notably,the pore size was dependent on the chain length of the polyisocyanide arms.Precisely control the chain length of polyisocyanide arms,supramolecular polymer frameworks with pore sizes ranging from 5.06 nm to 9.72 nm were achieved.These frameworks,with tunable and large pore apertures,demonstrated exceptional capabilities in encapsulating enzymes of different sizes,such as lipase(TL),horseradish peroxidase(HRP),and glucose oxidase(GOx).The encapsulated enzymes exhibited significantly enhanced catalytic activity and durability.Moreover,the frameworks' tunable and large pore apertures facilitated the co-encapsulation of multiple enzymes,enabling efficient dual-enzyme cascade reactions.

文摘The separation of propylene(C_(3)H_(6))and propane(C_(3)H_(8))presents a significant industrial challenge due to their similar molecular dimensions and physicochemical properties.Among various separation methods,molecular sieving emerges as the most promising approach,but it will be significantly compromised at high temperatures due to the significant thermal motion.Here,we report a thermally robust zinc-based metal-organic framework(MOF)that can be synthesized on sub-kilogram scale and achieve exceptional C_(3)H_(6)/C_(3)H_(8) separation performances across a broad temperature range(298–353 K).Unlike conventional MOFs suffering from thermal lattice expansion to give poorer selectivity,this new MOF gives the adsorption capacity of C_(3)H_(6)essentially unchanged and that of C_(3)H_(8) negligible at elevated temperatures,outperforming most state-of-the-art adsorbents,in virtue of multiple hydrogen bonds at the aperture.Column breakthrough experiments confirmed the excellent separation capability,and showed no performance degradation over multi-round adsorption-desorption cycles at 353 K.This study addresses the critical challenge of the trade-off between temperature and selectivity in adsorptive separation,which offers new insights into the design of porous structures for highly effective separation at high temperatures.

文摘Small angle x-ray scattering(SAXS)is an advanced technique for characterizing the particle size distribution(PSD)of nanoparticles.However,the ill-posed nature of inverse problems in SAXS data analysis often reduces the accuracy of conventional methods.This article proposes a user-friendly software for PSD analysis,GranuSAS,which employs an algorithm that integrates truncated singular value decomposition(TSVD)with the Chahine method.This approach employs TSVD for data preprocessing,generating a set of initial solutions with noise suppression.A high-quality initial solution is subsequently selected via the L-curve method.This selected candidate solution is then iteratively refined by the Chahine algorithm,enforcing constraints such as non-negativity and improving physical interpretability.Most importantly,GranuSAS employs a parallel architecture that simultaneously yields inversion results from multiple shape models and,by evaluating the accuracy of each model's reconstructed scattering curve,offers a suggestion for model selection in material systems.To systematically validate the accuracy and efficiency of the software,verification was performed using both simulated and experimental datasets.The results demonstrate that the proposed software delivers both satisfactory accuracy and reliable computational efficiency.It provides an easy-to-use and reliable tool for researchers in materials science,helping them fully exploit the potential of SAXS in nanoparticle characterization.

文摘Redox-active porous aromatic frameworks(PAFs)have emerged as hopeful candidates for sodium-ion batteries(SIBs)in view of their porous structures,chemical stability and tunable architectures.Herein,we successfully synthesized two redox-active PAFs(PAF-305 and PAF-306)with different nitrogen-containing motifs,and demonstrated their application as cathode materials for SIBs.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations reveal that nitrogen-rich PAF-305 exhibits a lower lowest unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO)energy level(-3.35 eV)and a narrower energy gap(E_(g))(2.40 eV)compared with nitrogen-poor PAF-306.As expected,PAF-305 displays outstanding electrochemical performance,comprising a high reversible capacity of 145.2 mAh g^(-1)at 0.05 A g^(-1)and satisfactory cycling stability with 92% capacity retention over 1000 cycles at 0.2 A g^(-1).Remarkably,PAF-305 maintains robust electrochemical properties across a wide temperature range(-20℃ to 50℃).Through a combination of experimental characterizations and theoretical calculations,the sodium-ion storage mechanism of PAF-305 is elucidated.This study not only provides a promising strategy for exploring other redox-active organic units in the design of novel PAFs,but also expands the potential applications of PAFs in energy storage systems.

文摘Progressive skin fibrosis ultimately results in irreversible contractures,causing both joint dysfunction and cosmetic deformity.The key pathological features of skin fibrosis include persistent inflammation and abnormal accumulation of the extracellular matrix(ECM),with epithelialmesenchymal transition(EMT)playing a critical role in disease progression.However,current therapeutic strategies for cutaneous fibrosis are largely palliative and often require repeated interventions,with limited efficacy.Celastrol(Cel)exerts anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects in skin tissue,but its clinical application is limited by poor bioavailability and a narrow therapeutic window.Tetrahedral framework nucleic acid(tFNA),a novel nanocarrier system,exhibits multiple advantages,including enhanced cellular uptake,improved cell viability,and intrinsic anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory properties.Therefore,this study applied tFNA-Cel complex(TCC)as an advanced nanotherapeutic agent,designed to exert a synergistic anti-fibrotic effect.In this study,an in vitro model of skin fibrosis was established using human keratinocyte(HaCaT)cells treated with 5 ng mL^(-1) transforming growth factor beta(TGF-β)for 24 h.The results showed that TCC significantly inhibited EMT progression by reducingα-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)levels and increasing E-cadherin level.Compared to tFNA or Cel alone,TCC exhibited superior anti-fibrotic effects in the fibrosis model,as evidenced by modulation of SMAD family member 2(SMAD2)signaling and collagen I expression.Furthermore,the TCC group showed lower levels of nuclear factorκB p65(NF-κB p65),BCL-2-associated X protein(Bax),and reactive oxygen species(ROS)compared to the Cel or tFNA groups.These findings highlight TCC as a promising treatment for skin fibrosis,with its synergistic anti-fibrotic effects providing new therapeutic avenues.
文摘CO_(2)reduction technology can promote the resource utilization of carbon and help alleviate global warming and energy supply pressure.It is an effective way to achieve energy conversion and utilization.Covalent organic frameworks(COFs)are porous crystalline materials formed by connecting organic monomers through covalent bonds.They have the characteristics of functional diversity and rich chemical properties.Their advantages,such as high porosity,a wide range of visible light absorption,and excellent charge separation efficiency,give them good potential in CO_(2)capture,separation,and conversion.Currently,Cu is a key metal in the catalytic CO_(2)reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR)for the preparation of high-value-added chemicals.The preparation of highly stable and large-pore Cu-based COFs using COFs as an ideal sacrificial template for loading Cu can be used to develop high-performance electrocatalysts and photocatalysts.In this review,we discuss the latest advancements in this field,including the development of various Cu-based COFs and their applications as catalysts for CO_(2)RR.Here,we mainly introduce the synthesis strategies,some important characterization information,and the applications of electrocatalytic and photocatalytic CO_(2)conversion using these previously reported Cu-based COFs.
文摘Test case prioritization and ranking play a crucial role in software testing by improving fault detection efficiency and ensuring software reliability.While prioritization selects the most relevant test cases for optimal coverage,ranking further refines their execution order to detect critical faults earlier.This study investigates machine learning techniques to enhance both prioritization and ranking,contributing to more effective and efficient testing processes.We first employ advanced feature engineering alongside ensemble models,including Gradient Boosted,Support Vector Machines,Random Forests,and Naive Bayes classifiers to optimize test case prioritization,achieving an accuracy score of 0.98847 and significantly improving the Average Percentage of Fault Detection(APFD).Subsequently,we introduce a deep Q-learning framework combined with a Genetic Algorithm(GA)to refine test case ranking within priority levels.This approach achieves a rank accuracy of 0.9172,demonstrating robust performance despite the increasing computational demands of specialized variation operators.Our findings highlight the effectiveness of stacked ensemble learning and reinforcement learning in optimizing test case prioritization and ranking.This integrated approach improves testing efficiency,reduces late-stage defects,and improves overall software stability.The study provides valuable information for AI-driven testing frameworks,paving the way for more intelligent and adaptive software quality assurance methodologies.

文摘The practical deployment of lithium metal batteries remains severely constrained,especially under elevated temperatures.Although metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)improve the thermal stability of liquid electrolytes by capturing them in well-ordered sub-nanopores,interparticle voids between MOF particles readily absorb liquid electrolyte,obscuring our understanding of the intrinsic role of nanopores in directing Li^(+)transport.To address this challenge,we introduce a one-dimensional(1D)MOF model architecture that eliminates interparticle effects and enables direct observation of Li^(+)solvation and de-solvation dynamics.Comparative studies of 1D HKUST-1 and ZIF-8 uncover distinct transport behaviors,supported by both experimental measurements and neural network potential-based molecular dynamics simulations.Building on these insights,we construct a hierarchical core-shell MOF architecture by integrating ZIF-8(core)and HKUST-1(shell)onto a hybrid fiber scaffold.This design harnesses the complementary strengths of both MOFs to achieve continuous ion pathways,directional Li^(+)conduction,and improved thermal and electrochemical resilience.

文摘The recovery of gold from waste electronic and electric equipment(WEEE) has gained great attention with the increased number of WEEE,because it can largely alleviate the pressure on the environment and resources.Covalent organic frameworks(COFs) are ideal adsorbents for gold recovery owing to their large surface area,good stability,easily functionalized ability,periodic structures,and definitive nanopores.Herein,a cyano-functionalized COF(COF-CN) with high crystallinity was large-scale prepared under mild conditions for the recovery of gold.The introduction of cyano groups enable COF-CN to exhibit excellent gold recovery performance,which possesses fast adsorption kinetics,high cycling stability,and adsorption capacity up to 663.67 mg/g.Excitingly,COF-CN showed extremely high selectivity for gold ions,even in the presence of various competing cations and anions.The COF-CN maintained excellent selectivity and removal efficiency in gold recovery experiments from WEEE.The facile synthesis of COF-CN and its outstanding selectivity in actual samples make it an attractive opportunity for practical gold recovery.
