By using time division multiplexing(TDM), a successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter(SAR ADC) is shared among all 20 channels. A charge-sharing multiplexer(MUX) is proposed to transmit the output signals from the respective channels to the ADC. By separately pre sampling the output of each channel, the sampling time of each channel is greatly extended and additional active buffers are avoided. The AFE is fabricated in a 65-nm CMOS process, and the whole system consumes 28.2 μW under 1 V supply. Each analog acquisition channel consumes 1.25 μW and occupies a chip area of 0.14 mm2. Measurement results show that the AFE achieves an input referred noise of 1.8 μV·rms in a 350 Hz bandwidth and a noise efficiency factor(NEF) of 4.1. The 12-bit SAR ADC achieves an ENOB of 9.8 bit operating at 25 k S/s. The AFE is experimented on real-world applications by measuring human ECG and a clear ECG waveform is captured.展开更多

文摘A coal-loaded charge induction monitoring system is developed to effectively forecast the dynamic disasters caused by coal failure.Specifically,a digital finite impulse response(FIR)filter is designed to denoise and filter the signal,and the time-frequency domain evolution of induced charge signals is analyzed during coal failure experiments.The quantitative relationships between the induced electric charge and stress-strain energy,and ultimately,between induced electric charge and coal deformation/failure,are revealed.Ultimately,the electric charge sensor exhibits high signal collection frequency and high sensitivity,and the FIR low-pass filter constructed in MATLAB effectively denoises and filters induced charge signals.The main frequency range of the white noise is 50-500 Hz,and the main frequency of the charge signal induced by coal deformation and failure is concentrated in the range of 0-50 Hz.The optimal distances for monitoring cubic and cylindrical raw coal samples using this sensor are 9 mm and 11 mm,respectively.Notably,strain energy is released faster when it can dissipate more readily,and induced charge pulses become denser when more intense signals produce large fluctuations.A method is proposed to identify coal deformation and failure based on changes in the induced electric charge.This study provides a new means of monitoring the early warning signs of dynamic coal mine disasters.Based on our experimental results and conclusions,a new method is proposed to identify coal deformation and failure based on changes in the induced electric charge.The precursor to the moment of coal failure can be identified by monitoring the amplitude of the induced charge,the dynamic trend of fluctuation,and the cumulative number of induced electric charge pulses during the process of coal deformation.

文摘The excited state dynamics and critically regulated factors of reverse intersystem crossing(RISC)in through-space charge transfer(TSCT)molecules have received insufficient attention.Here,five molecules of through space/bond charge transfer inducing thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)are prepared,and their excited state charge transfer processes are studied by ultrafast transient absorption and theoretical calculations.DM-Z has a largerΔEST,leading to a longer lifetime of intersystem crossing(ISC),resulting in the lowest photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY).Oppositely,ISC and RISC are demonstrated to take place with shorter lifetimes for TSCT molecules.The face-to-faceπ-πstacking interactions and electron communication enable DM-B and DM-BX to have an efficient RISC,increasing the weight coefficient of RISC from 1.7%(DM-X)to close to 50%(DM-B and DM-BX)in the solvents,which make DM-BX and DM-B to have a high PLQY.However,partial local excitation in the donor center is observed and the charge transfer is decreased for DM-G and DM-X.The triplet excited state(DM-G)or singlet excited state(DM-X)mainly undergoes inactivation through a non-radiative relaxation process,resulting in less RISC and low PLQY.This work provides theoretical hints to enhance the RISC process in the TADF materials.

文摘This paper presents the design of a low-power multi-channel analog front-end(AFE) for bio-potential recording. By using time division multiplexing(TDM), a successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter(SAR ADC) is shared among all 20 channels. A charge-sharing multiplexer(MUX) is proposed to transmit the output signals from the respective channels to the ADC. By separately pre sampling the output of each channel, the sampling time of each channel is greatly extended and additional active buffers are avoided. The AFE is fabricated in a 65-nm CMOS process, and the whole system consumes 28.2 μW under 1 V supply. Each analog acquisition channel consumes 1.25 μW and occupies a chip area of 0.14 mm2. Measurement results show that the AFE achieves an input referred noise of 1.8 μV·rms in a 350 Hz bandwidth and a noise efficiency factor(NEF) of 4.1. The 12-bit SAR ADC achieves an ENOB of 9.8 bit operating at 25 k S/s. The AFE is experimented on real-world applications by measuring human ECG and a clear ECG waveform is captured.

文摘Unlike conventional spherical charges,a shaped charge generates not only a strong shock wave and a pulsating bubble,but also a high strain rate metal jet and a ballistic wave during the underwater explosion.They show significant characteristic differences and couple each other.This paper designs and conducts experiments with shaped charges to analyze the complicated process.The effects of liner angle and weight of shaped charge on the characteristics of metal jets,waves,and bubbles are discussed.It is found that in underwater explosions,the shaped charge generates the metal jet accompanied by the ballistic wave.Then,the shock wave propagates and superimposes with the ballistic wave,and the generated bubble pulsates periodically.It is revealed that the maximum head velocity of the metal jet versus the liner angle a and length-to-diameter ratio k of the shaped charge follows the laws of 1/(α/180°)^(0.55)andλ^(0.16),respectively.The head shape and velocity of the metal jet determine the curvature and propagation speed of the initial ballistic wave,thus impacting the superposition time and region with the shock wave.Our findings also reveal that the metal jet carries away some explosion products,which hinders the bubble development,causing an inward depression of the bubble wall near the metal jet.Therefore,the maximum bubble radius and pulsation period are 5.2%and 3.9%smaller than the spherical charge with the same weight.In addition,the uneven axial energy distribution of the shaped charge leads to an oblique bubble jet formation.

文摘Negatively charged open-framework metal sulfides(NOSs),taking advantages of the characteristics of excellent visible light absorption,easily exchanged cations,and abundant active sites,hold significant promise as highly efficient photocatalysts for hydrogen evolution.However,their applications in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution(PHE)are infrequently documented and the corresponding photocatalytic mechanism has not yet been explored.Herein,we excavated a novel NOS photocatalyst of(Me_(2)NH_(2))_(6)In_(10)S_(18)(MIS)with a three-dimensional(3D)structure,and successfully incorporated divalent Co(Ⅱ)and metal Co(0)into its cavities via the convenient cation exchange-assisted approach to regulate the critical steps of photocatalytic reactions.As the introduced Co(0)allows for more efficient light utilization and adroitly surficial hydrogen desorption,and meanwhile acts as the‘electron pump’for rapid charge transfer,Co(0)-modified MIS delivers a surprising PHE activity in the initial stage of photocatalysis.With the prolonging of illumination,metal Co(0)gradually escapes from MIS framework,resulting in the decline of PHE performance.By stark contrast,the incorporated Co(Ⅱ)can establish a strong interaction with MIS framework,and simultaneously capture photogenerated electrons from MIS to produce Co(0),which constructs a stable photocatalytic system as well as provides additional channels for spatially separating photogenerated carriers.Thus,Co(Ⅱ)-modified MIS exhibits a robust and highly stable PHE activity of~4944μmol/g/h during the long-term photocatalytic reactions,surpassing most of the previously reported In–S framework photocatalysts.This work represents a breakthrough in the study of PHE performance and mechanism of NOS-based photocatalysts,and sheds light on the design of vip confined NOS-based photocatalysts towards high-efficiency solar-to-chemical energy conversion.

文摘In optimizing fast charge capability,mitigating side reaction rate,and unveiling particle cracking tolerance for Li-ion batteries(LIBs),the galvanostatic charge–discharge(GCD)at different charge/discharge rates,the static electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(SEIS)under open circuit voltage(OCV)conditions,and the dynamic EIS(DEIS)under dynamic conditions are widely used to investigate charge transfer reactions in LIBs.In spite of great progresses achieved,it is still an open question how to decouple charge transfer reactions under dynamic conditions,especially under conditions of different charge/discharge rates and state of charges(SOCs).To address the above challenges,this work develops a unified framework to digitize,visualize,and finally decouple charge transfer reactions in LIBs under dynamic conditions.In detail:(i)a set of matrix-based numerical solutions to GCD,SEIS,and DEIS are deduced for LIBs;(ii)an open-source DEIS-Toolbox@LIB to digitize/visualize charge transfer reactions is developed;(iii)EIS under dynamic and OCV conditions are discriminated;and(iv)a dynamic decoupling of charge transfer reactions is achieved with respect to core parameters under dynamic conditions for LIBs.The developed framework serves to digitize/visualize/decouple charge transfer reactions under dynamic conditions,and then to unveil limiting factors of fast charge/discharge and triggering mechanisms of side reactions for batteries.

文摘The surface physiochemical features of nanomedicine are essential for controlling biointerfacial interactions in biological compartments and achieving the programmed delivery scenario to intracellular targets.This work presents a novel dynamic triple-transformable surface engineering strategy that can adapt to sequential variable biological microenvironments and intelligently managing the previously acknowledged biological obstacles.By employing click chemistry,the surface of a classical PEGylated pDNA delivery nanoparticles were tethered with a multiple of charge-reversible polymers to endow the dynamic biointerfacial surroundings.Crucially,the dynamic surroundings had negative charge under physiological circumstances(pH 7.4),which inhibited structural disintegration brought on by charged biological species and anionic nuclease degradation.In addition,by regulating the first pass effect,the nanoparticles demonstrated appreciable stealth function that led to persistent systemic retention and improved bioavailability and consistent internalization into the targeted cells.In subsequence to cell endocytosis,translocation from the digestive endolysosomes to the targeted cytosol was facilitated due to acidification(endosomal pH 5.5)of the dynamic surroundings into highly positive charge,consequently leading to explosive disruptive effects on the endolysosomal structures and retrieve the bio-vulnerable pDNA payloads.In conclusion,our proposed unique dynamic surface chemistry provides a viable delivery mechanism that successfully navigates a series of biological roadblocks and collaborates to effectively express the encapsulated pDNA at the targeted cells.

文摘In this work,a series of experiments are carried out to investigate the effect of charge/discharge rates(1,2,3 and 4 C)and state of charges(SOCs,namely 0%,50%,75%and 100%)on thermal runaway(TR)and fire behavior of lithium iron phosphate(LFP)batteries.The TR process caused by overheating LFP batteries is usually divided into four stages,with high temperatures and fire risks.High-rate charge and discharge damage the internal morphology and structural stability of materials seriously.The TR behavior of battery is fully aggravated,which is further manifested by the advanced opening of the safety vent,release of gas and occurrence of TR.With the increase of charging rate,the deteriorated TR characteristics can be discerned,such as the lower TR temperature,the shorter TR time,and the more serious TR consequences.Such changes can be assigned to the decline of battery stability.In addition,the battery SOC greatly impacts safety,especially the flame temperature and the severity of consequences.As for the 100%SOC battery cycled at 4 C,there is still a high risk of thermal runaway propagation at the position 1 m far away from the battery.This work helps to realize the TR and fire features of battery in-depth,enlightening the safety protection of battery.
