However, there are many challenging issues related to calibration, energy consumption, and cost in implementing a digital beamforming structure in an LSAS. In a practical LSAS deployment, hybrid digitalanalog beamforming structures with active antennas can be used. In this paper, we investigate the optimal antenna configuration in an N ＆#215; M beamforming structure, where N is the number of transceivers, M is the number of active antennas per transceiver, where analog beamforming is introduced for individual transceivers and digital beamforming is introduced across all N transceivers. We analyze the green point, which is the point of maximum EE on the EESE curve, and show that the logscale EE scales linearly with SE along a slope of lg2/N. We investigate the effect of M on EE for a given SE value in the case of fixed NM and independent N and M. In both cases, there is a unique optimal M that results in optimal EE. In the case of independent N and M, there is no optimal （N, M） combination for optimizing EE. The results of numerical simulations are provided, and these results support our analysis.展开更多

Different than conventional disposal at landfills, waste is penetrated by synthetic roots that serve dual mission for biogas collection and leachate recirculation. RA-MSW roots are permeable hydropho- bic polymer material that are formed on-place or prefabricated at factory from recyclable material available on the dumping area. Since the material is hydrophobic, it does not contain water in the voids providing more space for gas transport and collection. The roots are also interchangeably used for leachate recirculation where the parameters of wa- ter content, nutrients, pH, and temperature are optimized to enhance biogas production simultaneously with leachate treatment. RA-MSW provides new approach of waste management and control;it has new virtues of landfill operation;new material medium for biogas collection;new biocell design configuration;new manipulation for leachate and biogas. The approach adds new merits for solid waste management, bio-energy utilization, and the concept of 5 R’s cycle for MSW management.展开更多

However, multiple measurements and adjustments are usually required for conventional schemes, which inevitably reduces the quality of phase imaging. Here, based on multi-channel metasurface and quantum entanglement source, a simple and integrated quantum analog operation system is proposed to realize quantitative phase reconstruction with a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) under a low signal photon level. Without additional measurements and adjustments, four differential images necessary for the phase reconstruction are captured simultaneously. The non-local correlation of entangled photon pairs enables to remotely manipulate working modes of the system. Besides, the consistency of entangled photon pairs in time domain makes it possible to achieve a high SNR imaging by trigger detection. The results may potentially empower the application of metasurfaces in optical chip, wave function reconstruction, and label-free biology imaging.展开更多

文摘The removal of cesium-137(^(137)Cs)from nuclear wastewater remains crucial due to its radioactivity and high solubility in water,which pose serious risk to human health and the environment.Aiming at selective capture of Cs^(+) from wastewater,a core-shell adsorbent,Prussian blue analog@y-alumina(PBA@Al_(2)O_(3))pellets were synthesized using the hydrothermal-stepwise deposition method.The coreshell PBA@Al_(2)O_(3)pellets showcased a PBA loading of 25%and demonstrated a maximum adsorption capacity of 15.65 mg·g^(-1).The adsorption data was consistent with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model.It effectively reduced bulk Cs^(+) concentrations from an initial 6.62 mg·L^(-1)to 2 μg·L^(-1),achieving a removal efficiency of 99.97%and distribution coefficient(Kd)of 1.265×10^(6)ml·g^(-1),surpassing the performance of other PBA-based materials.The material also indicated good mechanical properties and cesium ion removal rates of 99.7%across a wide pH range(1.82 to 11.12).Furthermore,PBA@Al_(2)O_(3)exhibited consistent removal rate of over 99%and good selectivity(SF=50-1600)towards Cs^(+) even in the presence of interfering ions such as Na^(+),K^(+),Mg^(2+),and Ca^(2+)ions.The Kd(Cs^(+))for PBA@Al2O3 in simulated seawater and groundwater were 9.92×10^(3)and 2.23×10^(4)ml·g^(-1),where the removal rates reached 96.1%and 98.2%,respectively.XPS confirms that the adsorption mechanism is the ion exchange between Cs^(+) and K^(+)ions.This study underscores the significant potential of inorganic core-shell pellets adsorbents as promising agents for the selective capture of Cs^(+) from wastewater.

文摘Phase reconstruction plays a pivotal role in biology, medical imaging, and wavefront sensing. However, multiple measurements and adjustments are usually required for conventional schemes, which inevitably reduces the quality of phase imaging. Here, based on multi-channel metasurface and quantum entanglement source, a simple and integrated quantum analog operation system is proposed to realize quantitative phase reconstruction with a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) under a low signal photon level. Without additional measurements and adjustments, four differential images necessary for the phase reconstruction are captured simultaneously. The non-local correlation of entangled photon pairs enables to remotely manipulate working modes of the system. Besides, the consistency of entangled photon pairs in time domain makes it possible to achieve a high SNR imaging by trigger detection. The results may potentially empower the application of metasurfaces in optical chip, wave function reconstruction, and label-free biology imaging.

文摘The photophysical properties of fluorescent nucleobase analogs play a crucial role in nucleic acids detection and the investigation of their structural and functional characteristics.In this study,we computationally designed a series of quasiintrinsic fluorescent probes according to natural guanine(G)for selectively identifying covalent N^(4)-acetylcytosine(4acC),a base that is highly correlated with active transcription and gene expression.This work aims to gain insight into the role of 4acC in biological regulation with minimal perturbation to the native DNA structure.The results indicate that these Ganalogs possess extended π-conjugation in comparison with the natural guanine,which could yield efficient fluorescence emission and red-shifted absorption.Especially,the 8-thienyl-2’-deoxyguanosine(ThG)exhibits the highest fluorescence intensity and avoids self-absorption on account of the large Stokes shifts(>67 nm).What is more,the fluorescence of ThG is unaffected to base pairing with natural cytosine,while the obvious fluorescence quenching is observed by virtue of the excited state intermolecular charge transfer after pairing with 4acC,so it is supposed as a promising biosensor for monitoring the fluorescence changes in the absence or presence of the 4acC.Additionally,the impact of binding deoxyribose on photophysical properties is explored to guarantee the biological applicability of the bright G-analogs in real environment.

文摘With the advancement of artificial intelligence,optic in-sensing reservoir computing based on emerging semiconductor devices is high desirable for real-time analog signal processing.Here,we disclose a flexible optomemristor based on C_(27)H_(30)O_(15)/FeOx heterostructure that presents a highly sensitive to the light stimuli and artificial optic synaptic features such as short-and long-term plasticity(STP and LTP),enabling the developed optomemristor to implement complex analogy signal processing through building a real-physical dynamic-based in-sensing reservoir computing algorithm and yielding an accuracy of 94.88%for speech recognition.The charge trapping and detrapping mediated by the optic active layer of C_(27)H_(30)O_(15) that is extracted from the lotus flower is response for the positive photoconductance memory in the prepared optomemristor.This work provides a feasible organic−inorganic heterostructure as well as an optic in-sensing vision computing for an advanced optic computing system in future complex signal processing.

文摘Bimetallic oxides are promising electrocatalysts due to their rich composition,facile synthesis,and favorable stability under oxidizing conditions.This paper innovatively proposes a strategy aimed at constructing a one-dimensional heterostructure(Fe–NiO/NiMoO_(4) nanoparticles/nanofibers).The strategy commences with the meticulous treatment of NiMoO_(4) nanofibers,utilizing in situ etching techniques to induce the formation of Prussian Blue Analog compounds.In this process,[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(3-)anions react with the NiMoO_(4) host layer to form a steady NiFe PBA.Subsequently,the surface/interface reconstituted NiMoO_(4) nanofibers undergo direct oxidation,leading to a reconfiguration of the surface structure and the formation of a unique Fe–NiO/NiMoO_(4) one-dimensional heterostructure.The catalyst showed markedly enhanced electrocatalytic performance for the oxygen evolution reaction.Density functional theory results reveal that the incorporation of Fe as a dopant dramatically reduces the Gibbs free energy associated with the rate-determining step in the oxygen evolution reaction pathway.This pivotal transformation directly lowers the activation energy barrier,thereby significantly enhancing electron transfer efficiency.
文摘BACKGROUND Infection by the hepatitis B virus(HBV)represents a significant global sociosanitary burden.While liver transplantation(LT)is an important therapeutic option,treatments that prevent HBV reinfection are necessary.The combination of anti-hepatitis B immunoglobulin(HBIG)and nucleoside/nucleotide analogs(NA)is the standard post-transplant treatment;however,there are limitations in using HBIG,particularly its cost.We present two illustrative clinical cases as examples of post-transplant management using dual NA therapy,unaccompanied by HBIG.CASE SUMMARY The first case involves a 42-year-old man with HBV-related cirrhosis,who,in the context of a diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma and hepatopulmonary syndrome,underwent LT without viremia at the time of transplantation.A lack of availability of HBIG led to the combined use of two NAs,entecavir,and tenofovir alafenamide—resulting in the negativization of hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg)and maintenance of a negative viral load in the post-transplant period.In the second case,a 63-year-old woman presented with acute hepatic failure due to HBV with viremia during transplantation.Combined therapy with entecavir and tenofovir alafenamide,again due to the unavailability of HBIG,ultimately led to the negativization of HBsAg and viral load.CONCLUSION These cases suggest the efficacy of dual NA therapy in post-transplant HBV management,emphasizing the need to reconsider traditional treatment approaches.

文摘With the rapid development of new energy and the high proportion of new energy connected to the grid,energy storage has become the leading technology driving significant adjustments in the global energy landscape.Electrochemical energy storage,as the most popular and promising energy storage method,has received extensive attention.Currently,the most widely used energy storage method is metal-ion secondary batteries,whose performance mainly depends on the cathode material.Prussian blue analogues(PBAs)have a unique open framework structures that allow quick and reversible insertion/extraction of metal ions such as Na^(+),K^(+),Zn^(2+),Li^(+)etc.,thus attracting widespread attention.The advantages of simple synthesis process,abundant resources,and low cost also distinguish it from its counterparts.Unfortunately,the crystal water and structural defects in the PBAs lattice that is generated during the synthesis process,as well as the low Na content,significantly affect their electrochemical performance.This paper focuses on PBAs’synthesis methods,crystal structure,modification strategies,and their potential applications as cathode materials for various metal ion secondary batteries and looks forward to their future development direction.

文摘By the random distribution of metals in a single phase,entropy engineering is applied to construct dense neighboring active centers with diverse electronic and geometric structures,realizing the continuous optimization of multiple primary reactions for oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)and oxygen evolution reaction(OER).Many catalysts developed through entropy engineering have been built in nearly equimolar ratios to pursue high entropy,hindering the identification of the active sites and potentially diluting the concentration of real active sites while weakening their electronic interactions with reaction intermediates.Herein,this work proposes an entropy-engineering strategy in metal nanoparticle-embedded nitrogen carbon electrocatalysts,implemented by entropy-engineered Prussian blue analogs(PBA)as precursors to enhance the catalytic activity of primary Cu-Fe active sites.Through the introduction of the micro-strains driven by entropy engineering,density functional theory(DFT)calculations and geometric phase analysis(GPA)using Lorentz electron microscopy further elucidate the optimization of the adsorption/desorption of intermediates.Furthermore,the multi-dimensional morphology and the size diminishment of the nanocrystals serve to expand the electrochemical area,maximizing the catalytic activity for both ORR and OER.Notably,the Zn-air battery assembled with CuFeCoNiZn-NC operated for over 1300 h with negligible decay.This work presents a paradigm for the design of low-cost electrocatalysts with entropy engineering for multi-step reactions.

文摘This study analyzes Brazilian stromatolites in Lagoa Salgada,serving as analogs for pre-salt rocks in the Santos and Campos basins.Despite their excellent petrophysical properties,such as high porosity and permeability,these reservoirs present challenges in fluid flow modeling and simulation.The research investigates various factors influencing the development of carbonate reservoirs,including diagenetic processes employing several techniques,such as microcomputed tomography(micro-CT)and digital rock physics(DRP),to study petrophysical and geological characteristics.Additionally,through numerical simulations,the properties of fluid flow in different microfacies of stromatolites are estimated,with particular emphasis on understanding and highlighting changes in the direction of fluid flow in the three characterized microfacies.These findings offer crucial insights into optimizing oil and gas exploration and production techniques in carbonate reservoirs,providing a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of fluid transport in porous media,especially in terms of directional changes within stromatolites.
