A modified attenuated total reflectance (ATR) accessory was linked to a WQD-500 FT-IR spectrometer for spectral measurement followed by submission of the samples for pathologic analysis. The spectral characteristics for different types of gastroscopic tissues were summarized and correlated with the corresponding pathologic results.RESULTS: Distinct differences were observed in the FTIR spectra of normal, atrophic gastritis, superficial gastritis and malignant gastric tissues. The sensitivity of FT-IR for detection of gastric cancer, chronic atrophic gastritis and superficial gastritis was 90.9%, 82.5%, 91.5%, and specificity was 97.3%, 91.7%, 89.5% respectively.CONCLUSION: FT-IR spectroscopy can distinguish gastric inflammation from malignancy.展开更多

文摘The increasing power density of chips poses a significant challenge in the form of material aging for aluminumfilled polydimethylsiloxane(Al/PDMS)composites,which are widely used in thermal interface materials.Despite the growing importance of this issue,the specific mechanisms behind the interfacial aging process remain elusive,hindering a comprehensive grasp of the aging dynamics in these composites.In our research,we have developed an in-situ Raman aging monitoring system that leverages the non-contact and high-resolution capabilities of Raman spectroscopy to study the interface aging process.Our findings indicate a notable decrease in the intensity of the Raman peak as further cross-linking of the molecules during aging,with the most pronounced decline occurring at the interface between aluminum and PDMS.This insight could potentially elucidate why the interface in composite materials is frequently the site of failure during aging.Our study offers a versatile methodology for investigating the interfacial aging of polymer composites,contributing to a broader understanding of the interface behavior in composite materials at the molecular level.

文摘The spatially-resolved laser-based high resolution angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy(ARPES)measurements have been performed on the optimally-doped HgBa_(2)Ca_(2)Cu_(3)O_(8+δ)(Hg1223)superconductor with a T_(c) of 133 K.Two distinct regions are identified on the cleaved surface:the single Fermi surface region where only one Fermi surface is observed,and the double Fermi surface region where two Fermi surface sheets are resolved coming from both the inner(IP)and outer(OP)CuO_(2) planes.The electronic structure and superconducting gap are measured on both of these two regions.In both cases,the observed electronic states are mainly concentrated near the nodal region.The momentum dependence of the superconducting gap deviates from the standard d-wave form.These results indicate that the surface electronic structure of Hg1223 behaves more like that of underdoped cuprates.

文摘A RadioFrequency Quadrupole(RFQ)cooler-buncher system was developed and implemented in a collinear laser spectroscopy setup.This system converts a continuous ion beam into short bunches while enhancing the beam quality and reducing the energy spread.The functionality of the RFQ cooler buncher was verified through offline tests with stable rubidium and indium beams delivered from a surface ion source and a laser ablation ion source,respectively.Bunched ion beams with a full width at half maximum of approximately 2μs in the time-of-flight spectrum were successfully achieved with a transmission efficiency exceeding 60%.The implementation of the RFQ cooler-buncher system also significantly improved the overall transmission efficiency of the collinear laser spectroscopy setup.

文摘The pseudo-two-dimensional(P2D)model plays an important role in exploring physicochemical mechanisms,predicting the state of health,and improving the fast charge capability for Li-ion batteries(LIBs).However,the fast charge leads to the lithium concentration gradient in the solid and electrolyte phases and the non-uniform electrochemical reaction at the solid/electrolyte interface.In order to decouple charge transfer reactions in LIBs under dynamic conditions,understanding the spatio-temporal resolution of the P2D model is urgently required.Till now,the study of this aspect is still insufficient.This work studies the spatio-temporal resolution for dynamic/static electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(DEIS/SEIS)on multiple scales.In detail,DEIS and SEIS with spatio-temporal resolutions are used to decouple charge transfer reactions in LIBs based on the numerical solution of the P2D model in the frequency domain.The calculated results indicate that decoupling solid diffusion requires a high spatial resolution along the r-direction in particles,decoupling electrolyte diffusion and interfacial transfer reaction requires a high spatial resolution along the x-direction,and decoupling charge transfer reactions in LIBs at an extremely low state of charge(SOC)requires an extremely high temporal resolution along the t-direction.Finally,the optimal range of spatio-temporal resolutions for DEIS/SEIS is derived,and the method to decouple charge transfer reactions with spatio-temporal resolutions is developed.

文摘This study investigated the heterogeneous responses of organic matter(OM)in highly-to over-mature source rocks during thermal maturation.An integrated analysis was conducted on the Raman spectroscopic and geochemical signatures of shales from the Lower Silurian Longmaxi Formation and the Lower Cambrian Qiongzhusi Formation,as well as anthracites from the Lower Permian Shanxi–Formation and the Upper Carboniferous Taiyuan Formation(collectively referred to as the Shanxi Taiyuan Formations).Additionally,burial and thermal evolution modeling was employed to support the analysis.A systematic assessment of Raman spectral parameters(e.g.,the positions and intensity ratio of the D and G bands)revealed robust correlations between the thermal history patterns of source rocks and molecular structural evolution parameters.The subsequent mechanistic quantification demonstrated that the maturation state of the source rocks was subjected to the hierarchical control of three principal factors:Peak heating temperature,the duration of sustained thermal intensity,and effective maturation duration.In addition,comparative analyses demonstrated that the anthracites attained higher structural ordering under sustained thermal conditions.This contrasts with the disordered carbon matrices observed in the intermittently heated shales.Raman spectroscopy further revealed broader variations in the D and G band intensities of the Longmaxi Formation compared to the Qiongzhusi Formation.This difference is associated with their different thermal histories.The thermal burial histories confirm that shales in the Longmaxi Formation underwent thermal exposure at lower peak temperatures over a shorter duration compared to those in the Qiongzhusi Formation.Finally,this study established a maturity calibration model for over-mature source rocks through a systematic correlation between Raman peak height ratios(R_(D/G))and vitrinite reflectance(R_(o)).

文摘Many spore-forming Bacillus species can cause serious human diseases,because of accidental Bacillusspore infection.Thus,developing an identification strategy with both high sensitivity and specificity is greatly in demand.In this work,we proposed a novel approach named multi-head self-attention mechanism-guided neural network Raman platform to identify living Bacillus spores within a single-cell resolution.The multi-head self-attention mechanism-guided neural network Raman platform was created by combining single-cell Raman spectroscopy,convolutional neural network(CNN),and multi-head self-attention mechanism.To address the limited size of the original spectra dataset,Gaussian noise-based spectra augmentation was employed to increase the number of single-cell Raman spectra datasets for CNN training.Owing to the assistance of both spectra augmentation and multi-head self-attention mechanism,the obtained prediction accuracy of five Bacillus spore species was further improved from 92.29±0.82%to 99.43±0.15%.To figure out the spectra differences covered by the multi-head self-attention mechanism-guided CNN,the relative classification weight from typical Raman bands was visualized via multi-head self-attention mechanism curve.In the process of spectra augmentation from 0 to 1000,the distribution of relative classification weight varied from a discrete state to a more concentrated phase.More importantly,these highlighted four Raman bands(1017,1449,1576,and 1660 cm^(-1))were assigned large weights,showing that the spectra differences in the Raman bands produced the largest contribution to prediction accuracy.It can be foreseen that,our proposed sorting platform has great potential in accurately identifying Bacillus and its related genera species at a single-cell level.

文摘In this work,we develop an extended dissipaton theory that generalizes the environmental couplings beyond the conventional linear and quadratic forms,enabling the treatment of ar-bitrary order of bath couplings.Ap-plying this theoretical framework to the condensed-phase non-Condon spectroscopy,we demonstrate the in-terplay of anharmonicity,non-Con-don and solvent effects on optical spectra,where the higher-order cou-plings arise from the anharmonicity of nuclear potential surface of the excited state.Precise simulations are carried out with high efficiency on linear absorption spectra involving the above mentioned correlated effects.We exhibit how an anharmonic potential modulates the vibronic feature,offering insights into the role of nonlinear environmental couplings in spectroscopic signatures and exemplifying the success of the extended dissipaton formalism as an exact and efficient method for higher-or-der bath couplings.

文摘Over the last 100 years,significant advances have been made in the characterisation of milk composition for dairy cattle improvement programs.Technological progress has enabled a shift from labour intensive,on-farm collection and processing of samples that assess yield and fat levels in milk,to large-scale processing of samples through centralised laboratories,with the scope extended to include quantification of other traits.Fourier-transform midinfrared(FT-MIR)spectroscopy has had a significant role in the transformation of milk composition phenotyping,with spectral-based predictions of major milk components already being widely used in milk payment and animal evaluation systems globally.Increasingly,there is interest in analysing the individual FT-MIR wavenumbers,and in utilising the FT-MIR data to predict other novel traits of importance to breeding programs.This includes traits related to the nutritional value of milk,the processability of milk into products such as cheese,and traits relevant to animal health and the environment.The ability to successfully incorporate these traits into breeding programs is dependent on the heritability of the FT-MIR predicted traits,and the genetic correlations between the FT-MIR predicted and actual trait values.Linking FT-MIR predicted traits to the underlying mutations responsible for their variation can be difficult because the phenotypic expression of these traits are a function of a diverse range of molecular and biological mechanisms that can obscure their genetic basis.The individual FT-MIR wavenumbers give insights into the chemical composition of milk and provide an additional layer of granularity that may assist with establishing causal links between the genome and observed phenotypes.Additionally,there are other molecular phenotypes such as those related to the metabolome,chromatin accessibility,and RNA editing that could improve our understanding of the underlying biological systems controlling traits of interest.Here we review topics of importance to phenotyping and genetic applications of FT-MIR spectra datasets,and discuss opportunities for consolidating FT-MIR datasets with other genomic and molecular data sources to improve future dairy cattle breeding programs.

文摘AIM: To determine if Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR)spectroscopy of endoscopic biopsies could accurately diagnose gastritis and malignancy.METHODS: A total of 123 gastroscopic samples, including 11 cases of cancerous tissues, 63 cases of chronic atrophic gastritis tissues, 47 cases of chronic superficial gastritis tissues and 2 cases of normal tissues, were obtained from the First Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University, China. A modified attenuated total reflectance (ATR) accessory was linked to a WQD-500 FT-IR spectrometer for spectral measurement followed by submission of the samples for pathologic analysis. The spectral characteristics for different types of gastroscopic tissues were summarized and correlated with the corresponding pathologic results.RESULTS: Distinct differences were observed in the FTIR spectra of normal, atrophic gastritis, superficial gastritis and malignant gastric tissues. The sensitivity of FT-IR for detection of gastric cancer, chronic atrophic gastritis and superficial gastritis was 90.9%, 82.5%, 91.5%, and specificity was 97.3%, 91.7%, 89.5% respectively.CONCLUSION: FT-IR spectroscopy can distinguish gastric inflammation from malignancy.
文摘A series of soy protein isolate(SPI)films plasticized by glycerol(Gly)were studied using attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(ATR/FTIR).Perturbation-correlation movingwindow two-dimensional(PCMW2D)and two-dimensional correlation(2DCOS)analyses were applied to the amideⅠband and thus the hydrogen bond interaction between SPI and Gly was systematically investigated.When Gly concentrations were in the range 0~35%,the hydrogen bond amongβ-sheets was replaced by the one between SPI chain and Gly molecule,which caused these protein chains being changed toα-helix.However,the transformation ofβ-sheet toα-helix was saturated and both of them tend to change to random coil when Gly concentrations were in the range 35%~60%.

文摘In this paper,a novel four-prong quartz tuning fork(QTF)was designed with enlarged deformation area,large prong gap,and low resonant frequency to improve its performance in laser spectroscopy sensing.A theoretical simulation model was established to optimize the design of the QTF structure.In the simulation of quartz-enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy(QEPAS)technology,the maximum stress and the surface charge density of the four-prong QTF demonstrated increases of 11.1-fold and 15.9-fold,respectively,compared to that of the standard two-prong QTF.In the simulation of light-induced thermoelastic spectroscopy(LITES)technology,the surface temperature difference of the four-prong QTF was found to be 11.4 times greater than that of the standard QTF.Experimental results indicated that the C_(2)H_(2)-QEPAS system based on this innovative design improved the signal-to-noise-ratio(SNR)by 4.67 times compared with the standard QTF-based system,and the SNR could increase up to 147.72 times when the four-prong QTF was equipped with its optimal acoustic micro-resonator(AmR).When the average time of the system reached 370 s,the system achieved a MDL as low as 21 ppb.The four-prong QTF-based C_(2)H_(2)-LITES system exhibited a SNR improvement by a factor of 4.52,and a MDL of 96 ppb was obtained when the average time of the system reached 100 s.The theoretical and experimental results effectively demonstrated the superiority of the four-prong QTF in the field of laser spectroscopy sensing.

文摘The active sites for hydrogenation over Ru/SBA‐15catalysts were identified using in situ Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy.The amount of active sites was proportional to the interfacial circumference of the Ru particles.In contrast,the rate of hydrogen spillover from Ru to the support was inversely proportional to the size of the Ru metal particles.Consequently,a catalyst with small Ru metal particles has a high rate of hydrogen spillover but a low density of active sites,whereas one with large Ru particles has a low rate of hydrogen spillover but a high density of active sites.The formation of these active sites is probably an intermediate step in hydrogen spillover.

文摘Background:Magnetic resonance spectroscopy(MRS)represents a significant advancement in the noninvasive assessment of brain metabolism.MRS can provide valuable metabolic information and facilitate more accurate diagnoses of intrauterine fetal brain development than was previously possible.To obtain information regarding normal intrauterine fetal brain metabolism and to establish gestational age-specific reference values for normal fetal brain metabolites for subsequent use in MRS,we conducted MRS scans of normal fetal brains during mid-to late-term pregnancies,along with related processing.Methods:In this prospective study,MRS scans were conducted on 109 fetuses,with a total of 54 normal fetal brains enrolled on the basis of specific inclusion and exclusion criteria.We analyzed metabolic ratios,including the sum of N-acetylaspartate(NAA)and total N-acetylaspartate(tNAA),total choline(tCho),inositol(Ins),and total creatine(tCr),in relation to gestational age.Results:Gestational age was significantly correlated with specific metabolic ratios(Ins/tCr:r=-0.75,p<0.0001;tCho/tCr:r=-0.50,p<0.0001),especially tNAA/tCho(tNAA/tCho:r=0.54,p<0.0001)and tNAA/Ins(r=0.56,p<0.0001),providing a baseline for fetal brain metabolic assessment.Linear regression analysis was used to calculate regression lines for fetal brain metabolite ratios.Slopes were tested at p of 0.05.Conclusions:The current findings confirmed a significant correlation between fetal brain metabolites and gestational age,supporting the feasibility of establishing standard values for these metabolites in fetal brain assessment.
