文摘Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)is a widely used technique to monitor the electrical properties of a catalyst under electrocatalytic conditions.Although it is extensively used for research in electrocatalysis,its effectiveness and power have not been fully harnessed to elucidate complex interfacial processes.Herein,we use the frequency dispersion parameter,n,which is extracted from EIS measurements(C_(s)=af^(n+1),-2<n<-1),to describe the dispersion characteristics of capacitance and interfacial properties of Co_(3)O_(4) before the onset of oxygen evolution reaction(OER)in alkaline conditions.We first prove that the n-value is sensitive to the interfacial electronic changes associated with Co redox processes and surface reconstruction.The n-value decreases by increasing the specific/active surface area of the catalysts.We further modify the interfacial properties by changing different components,i.e.,replacing the proton with deuterium,adding ethanol as a new oxidant,and changing the cation in the electrolyte.Intriguingly,the n-value can identify different influences on the interfacial process of proton transfer,the decrease and blocking of oxidized Co species,and the interfacial water structure.We demonstrate that the n-value extracted from EIS measurements is sensitive to the kinetic isotope effect,electrolyte cation,adsorbate surface coverage of oxidized Co species,and the interfacial water structure.Thus,it can be helpful to differentiate the multiple factors affecting the catalyst interface.These findings convey that the frequency dispersion of capacitance is a convenient and useful method to uncover the interfacial properties under electrocatalytic conditions,which helps to advance the understanding of the interfaceactivity relationship.

文摘Wave-particle duality is one of the key features of quantum physics,characterized by the interference pattern.Meanwhile,Floquet spectroscopy is typically studied in the high-frequency region because the Floquet sidebands are very sharp,behaving like“particles”in frequency space,and no interference phenomena are observed.Here,we consider the larger quantum fluctuation region where the Floquet sidebands are broader,making interference between them possible.With the help of an optical lattice clock experimental platform and numerical simulations,such interference of Floquet modes in frequency space is clearly observed.Additionally,it exhibits many exotic phenomena,such as large Floquet sidebands between integer ones,sensitivity to the initial phase,and corresponding emergent symmetries.To analytically elucidate this,we propose the Floquet channel interference hypothesis,which surprisingly matches quantitatively well with both experimental and numerical results.Our research paves the way for developing a new type of interferometer that could be applicable to other Floquet systems.

文摘In a rapid cycling synchrotron(RCS),the magnetic field is synchronized with the beam energy,creating a highly dynamic magnetic environment.A ceramic chamber with a shielding layer(RF shield),composed of a series of copper strips connected to a capacitor at either end,is typically employed as a vacuum chamber to mitigate eddy current effects and beam coupling impedance.Consequently,the ceramic chamber exhibits a thin-walled multilayered complex structure.Previous theoretical studies have suggested that the impedance of such a structure has a negligible impact on the beam.However,recent impedance measurements of the ceramic chamber in the China Spallation Neutron Source(CSNS)RCS revealed a resonance in the low-frequency range,which was confirmed by further theoretical analysis as a source of beam instability in the RCS.Currently,the magnitude of this impedance cannot be accurately assessed using theoretical calculations.In this study,we used the CST Microwave Studio to confirm the impedance of the ceramic chamber.Further simulations covering six different types of ceramic chambers were conducted to develop an impedance model in the RCS.Additionally,this study investigates the resonant characteristics of the ceramic chamber impedance,finding that the resonant frequency is closely related to the capacitance of the capacitors.This finding provides clear directions for further impedance optimization and is crucial for achieving a beam power of 500 kW for the CSNS Phase-Ⅱ project(CSNS-Ⅱ).However,careful attention must be paid to the voltage across the capacitors.

文摘Human motion modeling is a core technology in computer animation,game development,and humancomputer interaction.In particular,generating natural and coherent in-between motion using only the initial and terminal frames remains a fundamental yet unresolved challenge.Existing methods typically rely on dense keyframe inputs or complex prior structures,making it difficult to balance motion quality and plausibility under conditions such as sparse constraints,long-term dependencies,and diverse motion styles.To address this,we propose a motion generation framework based on a frequency-domain diffusion model,which aims to better model complex motion distributions and enhance generation stability under sparse conditions.Our method maps motion sequences to the frequency domain via the Discrete Cosine Transform(DCT),enabling more effective modeling of low-frequency motion structures while suppressing high-frequency noise.A denoising network based on self-attention is introduced to capture long-range temporal dependencies and improve global structural awareness.Additionally,a multi-objective loss function is employed to jointly optimize motion smoothness,pose diversity,and anatomical consistency,enhancing the realism and physical plausibility of the generated sequences.Comparative experiments on the Human3.6M and LaFAN1 datasets demonstrate that our method outperforms state-of-the-art approaches across multiple performance metrics,showing stronger capabilities in generating intermediate motion frames.This research offers a new perspective and methodology for human motion generation and holds promise for applications in character animation,game development,and virtual interaction.

文摘Modern power systems increasingly depend on interconnected microgrids to enhance reliability and renewable energy utilization.However,the high penetration of intermittent renewable sources often causes frequency deviations,voltage fluctuations,and poor reactive power coordination,posing serious challenges to grid stability.Conventional Interconnection FlowControllers(IFCs)primarily regulate active power flowand fail to effectively handle dynamic frequency variations or reactive power sharing in multi-microgrid networks.To overcome these limitations,this study proposes an enhanced Interconnection Flow Controller(e-IFC)that integrates frequency response balancing and an Interconnection Reactive Power Flow Controller(IRFC)within a unified adaptive control structure.The proposed e-IFC is implemented and analyzed in DIgSILENT PowerFactory to evaluate its performance under various grid disturbances,including frequency drops,load changes,and reactive power fluctuations.Simulation results reveal that the e-IFC achieves 27.4% higher active power sharing accuracy,19.6% lower reactive power deviation,and 18.2% improved frequency stability compared to the conventional IFC.The adaptive controller ensures seamless transitions between grid-connected and islanded modes and maintains stable operation even under communication delays and data noise.Overall,the proposed e-IFCsignificantly enhances active-reactive power coordination and dynamic stability in renewable-integrated multi-microgrid systems.Future research will focus on coupling the e-IFC with tertiary-level optimization frameworks and conducting hardware-in-the-loop validation to enable its application in large-scale smart microgrid environments.
