OBJECTIVE: To study the therapeutic effects of NO vector of ultrasonic atomizing inhalation on vertebro-basilar artery insufficiency (VBI) through transcranial Doppler (TCD) detection and serum NO content and indirect effect of TCD on cerebral blood flow changes. DESIGN: Randomized grouping and controlled clinical study. SETTING: Department of Neurology, the Fourth People's Hospital of Jinan. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 130 patients who were diagnosed as VBI were selected from Department of Neurology, the Fourth People's Hospital of Jinan from December 2001 to December 2005. The involved inpatients were checked by CT and MRI, and met the VBI diagnostic standard enacted by the Fourth National Academic Meeting of Cerebrovascular Disease in 1995. All patients and their relatives provided the confumed consent. They were randomly divided into low-dose treatment group (n =60), high-lose treatment group (n =30) and control group (n =40). METHODS: Patients in the low-dose and high-dose treatment groups were given ultrasonic atomizing inhalation of 3 mg and 5 mg glycerol trinitrate, respectively, for 20 minutes, once a day. In addition, ligustrazine and energy mixture were used once a day for three days in a course. Cases in the control group were only given ligustrazine and energy mixture. All selected cases accepted TCD, blood NO content was checked at the time of beginning, after the first time and after a period of treatment. According to the TCD test, VBI patients were divided into two groups (high-low flow velocity). The vertebral artery (VA) and basal artery (BA) of left or right sides were detected by 2 Hz detector via occipital window. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①Blood flow velocity of systolic phase, blood flow velocity of diastole phase and vascular resistance in left and right VA and BA detected by using TCD before treatment, after treatment for one course; ②content of serum NO indirectly measured by using nitric acid disoxidation technique. RESULTS: All 130 VBI patients were involved in the final analysis. ①Changes of hemodynamic indexes: Systolic phase of VA and diastole phase of BA were higher in low-dose treatment group than that in the control group after first treatment, and there was significant difference (P 〈 0.05); meanwhile, systolic phase and diastole phase of VA and systolic phase of BA were also higher in treatment group than that in the control group after one course (P 〈 0.05). However, both systolic phase and diastole phase of VA and BA were lower in high-dose treatment group than that in the control group after first treatment and one course, and there was significant difference (P 〈 0.05). ②Content of serum NO: After first treatment, there was no significant difference between low-dose treatment group and high-dose treatment group (P 〉 0.05); but both groups were higher than control group, and there was significant difference (P 〈 0.05, 0.01). CONCLUSION: NO vector of ultrasonic atomizing inhalation can improve VBI so as to improve cerebral blood-supply state.展开更多

The calculating model was based ontime-temperature-transformation (TTT) diagrams, and incorporated with material properties dependenton temperature. The procedure was used to calculate the temperature-time histories, describe thephase transformations of atomizing spray quenching for DP in the welding zone, and predict thehardness distribution in radius direction after quenching in the zone. The calculated results metwell with that of experiments. It was easy to determine the parameters such as volume and pressureof the cooling water and compressed gas by use of the numerical calculation and experiments, becausethe value of convection coefficient was decided greatly by the mixture of the cooling water andcompressed gas. Moreover, the simulating results were helpful not only to design the quenchingequipment, but also to optimize the quenching process for DP's welding zone.展开更多

The pressure atomizing nozzle TF8 was chosen for inlet air spray cooling, and the spray cooling experiment with different layouts of nozzles were conducted. Through heat and mass transfer analysis, the cooling effect fitting correlation was acquired with evaporative cooling being the major cooling mechanism. The experimental results under different nozzle layouts show that when the product of dry ball and wet ball temperature difference and spray rate is smaller than 75 ~C-m3/h, opening the TF8 nozzles in row 1 and row 2 (row distance is 500 mm) has better cooling effect than those in row 1 and row 3 (row distance is 1 000 mm), while when the product is larger than 75 ~C'm3/h, opening the TF8 nozzles in row 1 and row 3 is superior in cooling effect to those in row 1 and row 2.展开更多

文摘The T_(1)(Al_(2) CuLi)phase is one of the most effective strengthening nanoscale-precipitate in Al-Cu alloys with Li.However,its formation and evolution still need to be further clarified during aging due to the complex precipitation sequences.Here,a detailed investigation has been carried out on the atomic struc-tural evolution of T_(1) precipitate in an aged Al-Cu-Li-Mg-Ag alloy using state-of-the-art Cs-corrected high-angle annular dark field(HAADF)-coupled with integrated differential phase contrast(iDPC)-scanning transmission electron microscopy(STEM)and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDXS)techniques.An intermediate T_(1)’phase between T_(1p) and T_(1) phase,with a crystal structure and orientation rela-tionship consistent with T_(1),but exhibiting different atomic occupancy and chemical composition was found.We observed the atomic structural transformation from T_(1p) to T_(1)’phase(fcc→hcp),involving only 1/12<112>Al shear component.DFT calculation results validated our proposed structural models and the precipitation sequence.Besides,the distributions of minor solute elements(Ag,Mg,and Zn)in the pre-cipitates exhibited significant differences.These findings may contribute to a further understanding of the nucleation mechanism of T_(1) precipitate.

文摘Metal-insulator-metal aluminium electrolytic capacitors(MIM-AECs)combine high capacity-density and high breakdown field strength of solid AECs with high-frequency responsibility,wide workingtemperature window and waterproof properties of MIM nanocapacitors.However,interfacial atomic diffusion poses a major obstacle,preventing the high-voltage MIM-AECs exploitation and thereby hampering their potential and advantages in high-power and high-energy-density applications.Here,an innovative high-voltage MIM-AECs were fabricated.The AlPO_(4)buffer layer is formed on AlO(OH)/AAO/Al surface by using H_(3)PO_(4)treatment,then a stable van der Waals(vdW)SnO_(2)/AlPO_(4)/AAO/Al multilayer was constructed via atomic layer deposition(ALD)technology.Due to higher diffusion barrier and lower carrier migration of SnO_(2)/AlPO_(4)/AAO interfaces,Sn atom diffusion is inhibited and carrier acceleration by electric field is weakened,guaranteeing high breakdown field strength of dielectric AAO and avoiding local breakdown risks.Through partial etching to hydrated AlO(OH)by H_(3)PO_(4)treatment,the tunnel was further opened up to facilitate subsequent ALD-SnO_(2)entry,thus obtaining a high SnO_(2)coverage.The SnO_(2)/AlPO_(4)/AAO/Al capacitors show a comprehensive performance in high-voltage(260 V),hightemperature(335℃),high-humidity(100%RH)and high-frequency response(100 k Hz),outperforming commercial solid-state AECs,and high-energy density(8.6μWh/cm^(2)),markedly exceeding previously reported MIM capacitors.The work lays the foundation for next-generation capacitors with highvoltage,high-frequency,high-temperature and high-humidity resistance.

文摘Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have gained great attention due to the high theoretical energy density and low cost,yet their further commercialization has been obstructed by the notorious shuttle effect and sluggish redox dynamics.Herein,we supply a strategy to optimize the electron structure of Ni_(2)P by concurrently introducing B-doped atoms and P vacancies in Ni_(2)P (Vp-B-Ni_(2)P),thereby enhancing the bidirectional sulfur conversion.The study indicates that the simultaneous introduction of B-doped atoms and P vacancies in Ni_(2)P causes the redistribution of electron around Ni atoms,bringing about the upward shift of d-band center of Ni atoms and effective d-p orbital hybridization between Ni atoms and sulfur species,thus strengthening the chemical anchoring for lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) as well as expediting the bidirectional conversion kinetics of sulfur species.Meanwhile,theoretical calculations reveal that the incorporation of B-doped atoms and P vacancies in Ni_(2)P selectively promotes Li2S dissolution and nucleation processes.Thus,the Li-S batteries with Vp-B-Ni_(2)P-separators present outstanding rate ability of 777 m A h g^(-1)at 5 C and high areal capacity of 8.03 mA h cm^(-2)under E/S of 5μL mg^(-1)and sulfur loading of 7.20 mg cm^(-2).This work elucidates that introducing heteroatom and vacancy in metal phosphide collaboratively regulates the electron structure to accelerate bidirectional sulfur conversion.

文摘Piezoelectric ceramic materials are important components of piezoelectric buzzers,where the parameter of inverse piezoelectric coefficient(d_(33)^(*))plays a decisive role in the performance of the buzzer.Here,we report the manufacture and performance of a lead-free ceramic-based(0.96(K_(0.5)Na_(0.5))(Nb_(0.96)Sb_(0.04))O_(3)-0.04(Bi_(0.5)Na_(0.5))ZrO_(3)-1 mol%Al_(2)O_(3),abbreviated as KNNS-BNZ-1 mol%Al_(2)O_(3))piezoelectric buzzer and compare it with commercial(PbZr_(0.5)Ti_(0.5)O_(3),abbreviated as PZT)ceramics.Briefly,KNN-based ceramics have a typical perovskite structure and piezoelectric properties of d_(33)=480 pC/N,k_(p)=0.62 and d_(33)^(*)=830 pm/V,compared to d_(33)=500 pC/N,k_(p)=0.6 and d_(33)^(*)=918 pm/V of the commercial PZT-4 ceramics.Our results show that the KNNS-BNZ-1 mol%Al_(2)O_(3)ceramics have a similar sound pressure level performance over the testing frequency range to commercial PZT ceramics(which is even better in the 3-4 kHz range).These findings highlight the great application potential of KNN-based piezoelectric ceramics.

文摘Exploiting non-precious metal catalysts with excellent oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)performance for energy devices is paramount essential for the green and sustainable society development.Herein,low-cost,high-performance biomass-derived ORR catalysts with an asymmetric Fe-N_(3)P configuration was prepared by a simple pyrolysis-etching technique,where carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC)was used as the carbon source,urea and 1,10-phenanthroline iron complex(FePhen)as additives,and Na_(3)PO_(4)as the phosphorus dopant and a pore-forming agent.The CMC-derived FeNPC catalyst displayed a large specific area(BET:1235 m^(2)g^(-1))with atomically dispersed Fe-N_(3)P active sites,which exhibited superior ORR activity and stability in alkaline solution(E_(1/2)=0.90 V vs.RHE)and Zn-air batteries(P_(max)=149 mW cm^(-2))to commercial Pt/C catalyst(E_(1/2)=0.87 V,P_(max)=118 mW cm^(-2))under similar experimental conditions.This work provides a feasible and costeffective route toward highly efficient ORR catalysts and their application to Zn-air batteries for energy conversion.

文摘The pursuit of alternative fuel generation technologies has gained momentum due to the diminishing reserves of fossil fuels and global warming from increased CO_(2)emission.Among the proposed methods,the hydrogenation of CO_(2)to produce marketable carbon-based products like methanol and ethanol is a practical approach that offers great potential to reduce CO_(2)emissions.Although significant volumes of methanol are currently produced from CO_(2),developing highly efficient and stable catalysts is crucial for further enhancing conversion and selectivity,thereby reducing process costs.An in-depth examination of the differences and similarities in the reaction pathways for methanol and ethanol production highlights the key factors that drive C-C coupling.Identifying these factors guides us toward developing more effective catalysts for ethanol synthesis.In this paper,we explore how different catalysts,through the production of various intermediates,can initiate the synthesis of methanol or ethanol.The catalytic mechanisms proposed by spectroscopic techniques and theoretical calculations,including operando X-ray methods,FTIR analysis,and DFT calculations,are summarized and presented.The following discussion explores the structural properties and composition of catalysts that influence C-C coupling and optimize the conversion rate of CO_(2)into ethanol.Lastly,the review examines recent catalysts employed for selective methanol and ethanol production,focusing on single-atom catalysts.
文摘Broadband transparent films play a pivotal role in various applications such as lenses and solar cells,particularly porous structured transparent films exhibit significant potential.This study investigates a porous SiO_(2) refractive index gradient anti-reflective film prepared by atomic layer deposition(ALD).A porous SiO_(2) film with gradual porosity was obtained by phosphoric acid etching of Al_(2)O_(3)/SiO_(2) multilayers with gradient Al2O3 ratios,achieving a gradual decrease in refractive index from the substrate to the surface.The film exhibited an average transmittance as high as 97.8%within the wavelength range from 320 nm to 1200 nm.The environmental adaptability was further enhanced by surface modification using rare earth oxide(REO)La_(2)O_(3),resulting in formation of a lotus leaf-like structure and achieving a water contact angle of 100.0°.These data proved that the modification significantly improved hydrophobic self-cleaning capability while maintaining exceptional transparency of the film.The surface structure of the modified film remained undamaged even after undergoing wipe testing,demonstrating its excellent surface durability.

文摘Polymeric perylene diimide(PDI)has been evidenced as a good candidate for photocatalytic water oxidation,yet the origin of the photocatalytic oxygen evolution activity remains unclear and needs further exploration.Herein,with crystal and atomic structures of the self-assembled PDI revealed from the X-ray diffraction pattern,the electronic structure is theoretically illustrated by the first-principles density functional theory calculations,suggesting the suitable band structure and the direct electronic transition for efficient photocatalytic oxygen evolution over PDI.It is confirmed that the carbonyl O atoms on the conjugation structure serve as the active sites for oxygen evolution reaction by the crystal orbital Hamiltonian group analysis.The calculations of reaction free energy changes indicate that the oxygen evolution reaction should follow the reaction pathway of H_(2)O→^(*)OH→^(*)O→^(*)OOH→^(*)O_(2)with an overpotential of 0.81 V.Through an in-depth theoretical computational analysis in the atomic and electronic structures,the origin of photocatalytic oxygen evolution activity for PDI is well illustrated,which would help the rational design and modification of polymeric photocatalysts for efficient oxygen evolution.
文摘A general metal-free photochemcial oxidation of benzylic C—H bonds has been successfully accomplished via a hydrogen atom transfer(HAT)process.A range of high value-added aromatic ketones were facilely synthesized with high chemoselectivity under mild conditions.Moreover,the mild conditions by using air as the oxidant render the developed proto-col more ecofriendly and environmentally sustainable.
文摘The regioselective carbon-hydrogen bond functionalization reaction in atom-and step-economy holds significant potential for the late-stage elaboration of complex molecules and natural products.In recent years,the hydrogen atom transfer strategy involving radicals has garnered considerable attention from chemists due to its high chemoselectivity and regioselectivity.However,owing to the marginal differences in bond dissociation energies(BDEs)among C(sp^(3))—H bonds,hydrogen atom transfer reactions mediated by alkyl radicals remain less-developed.A copper-catalyzed sulfone-induced regioselective C(sp^(3))—H bond heteroarylation reaction was reported.This strategy utilizes theα-alkyl radical of sulfone as an intramolecular hydrogen abstraction reagent,enabling the regioselective formation of carbon-nitrogen bonds under copper catalysis.
