Four structurally similar blue phosphorescent iridium complexes with isomerized phenyltriazole(ptz)ligands,[Ir(5-phenyl^(-1)H-1,2,4-triazole)_(3)](1),[Ir(3-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole)_(3)](2),[Ir(4-phenyl^(-1)H-1,2,3-tr...Four structurally similar blue phosphorescent iridium complexes with isomerized phenyltriazole(ptz)ligands,[Ir(5-phenyl^(-1)H-1,2,4-triazole)_(3)](1),[Ir(3-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole)_(3)](2),[Ir(4-phenyl^(-1)H-1,2,3-triazole)_(3)](3),and[Ir(2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole)_(3)](4),exhibit marked differences in their quantum efficiencies.In order to reveal the coordinating effect of these isomerized ptz ligands on the photophysical properties,density functional theory(DFT)and time-dependent DFT(TD-DFT)calculations were performed to investigate the geometrical and electronic structures,absorption and emission properties,and radiative and nonradiative process of iridium complexes.The calculated results show that the transition nature of an emissive T1 state can be assigned to the mixture of metal-to-ligand charge-transfer(3MLCT)and intraligand charge-transfer(3ILCT)states.The radiative decay rate constants are within the same order of magnitude,and thus the marked difference in the quantum efficiencies is ascribed to the different thermal deactivation pathways via the metal-centered(3MC)states and the nonradiative vibrational relaxation.This work establishes the structure-property relationship for complexes with different ptz isomer ligands,and provides a better understanding of the excited-state behavior of the ptzbased iridium complexes.展开更多

文摘The study of nuclear isomers can deepen our understanding of nuclear structure and astrophysics.In this work,we have performed the ab initio calculations of isomers in the N=49 isotones.With a chiral two-plus three-nucleon force,the valence-space effective Hamiltonian was derived using the ab initio many-body perturbation theory named Q-box folded diagrams.The effective operators of electromagnetic operators andβ-decay were obtained using ■-box folded diagrams.With the effective Hamiltonian and operators,we studied the properties of the isomers,gaining a microscopic understanding of the single-particle behaviour of the isomers which we are interested in,showing the reliability of the ab initio calculations.

文摘As Internet of Things(IoT)applications expand,Mobile Edge Computing(MEC)has emerged as a promising architecture to overcome the real-time processing limitations of mobile devices.Edge-side computation offloading plays a pivotal role in MEC performance but remains challenging due to complex task topologies,conflicting objectives,and limited resources.This paper addresses high-dimensional multi-objective offloading for serial heterogeneous tasks in MEC.We jointly consider task heterogeneity,high-dimensional objectives,and flexible resource scheduling,modeling the problem as a Many-objective optimization.To solve it,we propose a flexible framework integrating an improved cooperative co-evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition(MOCC/D)and a flexible scheduling strategy.Experimental results on benchmark functions and simulation scenarios show that the proposed method outperforms existing approaches in both convergence and solution quality.

文摘Three-quasiparticle K-isomeric states in odd-mass N=106 isotones within the A~180 mass region were systematically investigated using configuration-constrained potential energy surface calculations.The calculations succes sfully reproduced the excitation energies and deformations of the known high-K isomers in nuclei from 175Tm to 181Re.For the nuclei closer to the Z=82 shell closure(^(183)Ir,^(185)Au,and^(187)Tl),predictions of the configurations of the observed and yet-to-be-observed isomers are provided.The results reveal strong shape polarization,where the three-quasiparticle states are driven to larger deformations compared to the often shape-soft or spherical ground states.A particularly rich spectrum of shape coexistence is predicted in^(187)Tl,where several high-K three-quasiparticle configurations with distinct prolate,oblate,and triaxial shapes are found to coexist at similar excitation energies.Notably,the oblate-deformed K^(π)=29/2^(+)configuration at E_(x)=1839 keV was proposed to be responsible for a long-lived isomer.This study provides a comprehensive picture of shape evolution and coexistence in high-K multi-quasiparticle states,offering valuable insights for future experimental studies.

文摘To establish practical,evidence-based strategies for noninvasive assessment and referral of patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease(MASLD)in Japan,we must address the urgent clinical need for accurate risk stratification and timely specialist intervention.A panel of 11 Japanese hepatology experts conducted a modified Delphi process to evaluate consensus recommendations regarding the use of noninvasive tests(NITs),including the fibrosis-4 index,enhanced liver fibrosis test,Mac-2-binding protein glycosylation isomer,type IV collagen 7S,cytokeratin-18 fragments,and imaging modalities such as ultrasound elastography and magnetic resonance elastography,for MASLD assessment and clinical referral.Practical algorithms were developed based on current Japanese data and panel consensus.The expert panel validated the utility of NITs as reliable tools for identifying patients with MASLD at risk for advanced fibrosis.Sequential use of NITs improved diagnostic accuracy and referral appropriateness while minimizing unnecessary specialist consultations.The proposed algorithms offer stepwise guidance for primary care physicians,supporting efficient,evidence-based decisionmaking.However,prospective longitudinal studies remain necessary for full prognostic validation of NITs in MASLD management.Noninvasive testing algorithms enable effective risk stratification and referral for MASLD in real-world Japanese practice with anticipated benefit for patient outcomes and healthcare systems.Broader adoption and further validation are warranted.

文摘Only a few fused benzothiadizole(BTz)based conjugated polymers have been applied in organic field-effect transistors(OFETs),and their performances were low,mainly due to the lack of available building blocks and in-depth study of the relationship between structure and performance.Herein,we report two isomeric fused BTz-based building blocks(M1 and M2)and their copolymers PBTzVBTz-T and PBTzVBTz-TT,PTVT-T and PTVT-TT.DFT study showed all polymers had nearly planar backbone geometries,and PBTzVBTz-TT exhibited the most linear backbone.PTVT-T and PTVT-TT exhibited red-shift absorption spectra and deeper LUMO level than those of PBTzVBTz-T and PBTzVBTz-TT.Thin film microstructure study demonstrated PBTzVBTz-TT and PTVT-TT had edge-on molecular orientation,while the others had the mixed molecular orientation of edge-on and face-on.Furthermore,PBTzVBTz-TT had the longest coherence length in thin film.All these features of PBTzVBTz-TT resulted in its highest carrier mobility of 0.1 cm^(2)·V^(–1)·s^(–1) among these polymers.

文摘Binuclear complexes have attracted extensive attention in fields such as catalysis because of their likely bimetallic synergistic effect;however,the mechanism and factors influencing this synergism remain unclear.In this work,six bis-β-ketoimine binuclear titanium complexes4a-4f containing different alkylthio sidearms and configurations were synthesized and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectrum(~1H-NMR),nuclear magnetic resonance carbon spectrum(^(13)C-NMR),Fourier transform infrared spectrum(FTIR),and elemental analysis.The intermetallic distances of isomeric complexes 4a,4d,4e and 4f determined through density functional theory(DFT)optimization were in the order 4a<4d<4e<4f and were found to significantly influence the catalytic performance for ethylene(co)polymerization.These complexes could efficiently catalyze ethylene polymerization and ethylene/1-hexene or ethylene/1-octene copolymerization with high activity to produce highmolecular-weight ethylene homo-and co-polymers.Among the three binuclear titanium complexes 4a-4c with similar structures but different lengths of alkylthio sidearms,complex 4a,which contained the shortest methylthio sidearm,exhibited the highest activity for ethylene polymerization and copolymerization with 1-hexene or 1-octene.Additionally,for ethylene/1-hexene or ethylene/1-octene copolymerization,it showed the highest comonomer incorporation compared with propylthio(4b)and octylthio(4c)derivatives because of the smaller steric hindrance of the methyl group in 4a and the more open coordination space for vinyl monomers.Furthermore,among the isomeric complexes 4a,4d,4e and4f,complex 4a with the shortest bimetallic distance also exhibited the highest activity towards ethylene(co)polymerization,and the highest 1-hexene or 1-octene incorporation in comparison with its regioisomeric counterparts 4d,4e and p-phenyl-bridged analog 4f,owing to a more appropriate bimetallic distance that is conducive to a synergistic effect.

文摘The synthesis of Ta-substituted polyoxometalates has always been an attractive but challenging goal.Three novel tantalum-containing 12-tungsto-2-phosphates were successfully prepared using the water bath method.The monomer,K_(11)Li[P_(2)W_(12)(TaO_(2))_(6)O_(56)]·19H_(2)O(1),is composed of{P_(2)W_(12)}and 6{Ta(O_(2))}building blocks,similar to[P_(2)W_(12)(NbO_(2))_(6)O_(56)]^(12-).Monomer 1 polymerized to form two cis-trans dimers,K1_(3)Li_(6)H-cis-[P_(2)W_(12)Ta_(4)(TaO_(2))_(2)O_(59)]_(2)·61H_(2)O(2)and KNa_(3)Li_(4)H_(12)-trans-[P_(2)W_(12)Ta_(4)(TaO_(2))_(2)O_(59)]_(2)·37H_(2)O(3).Compounds 1-3 can serve as a structural motif to manufacture additional fascinating molecular clusters,promoting the advancement of POM chemistry.In contrast to[P_(2)W_(12)(NbO_(2))_(6)O_(56)]^(12-),compound 1 exhibits exceptional stability,evidenced by ESI-MS,IR,and NMR spectroscopy.In addition,2 and 3 exhibit high proton conductivity and superior water adsorption properties.
文摘Six coordination polymers based on 9,10-di(pyridine-4-yl)-anthracene(DPA)and 1,6-di(1H-imidazol-1-yl)pyrene(DIP)were obtained by solvothermal reactions.{[Zn(DPA)Cl_(2)]·DMF·2H_(2)O}n(1)and{[Zn_(1.5)(DPA)_(1.5)Cl_(3)]·5H_(2)O}n(2)are framework isomers,which both contain zigzag chains formed by DPA,Zn^(2+),and Cl-.The zigzag chains in 1 are further assembled by C—H…Cl interactions into layers,and these layers exhibit two different orientations,displaying a rare 2D to 3D interpenetration mode.The zigzag chains in 2 are parallelly arranged.{[Zn_(3)(DPA)_(3)Br_(6)]·2DMF·_(1.5)H_(2)O}n(3)is isostructural to 2.3 was obtained using ZnBr_(2)instead of ZnCl_(2).[M(DPA)(formate)_(2)(H_(2)O)_(2)]n[M=Co(4),Cu(5)]are isostructural,contain chain structures formed by DPA,Cu^(2+)/Co^(2+),and for-mate ions,which were formed in situ in the solvothermal reaction.{[Zn(DIP)_(2)Cl]ClO_(4)}n(6)contains a layer structure formed by DIP and Zn^(2+).Free DPA and DIP ligands exhibited high fluorescence at room temperature,and coordina-tion polymers 3 and 6 displayed enhanced fluorescent emissions.

文摘Fully utilizing renewable biomass energy is important for saving energy,reducing carbon emissions,and mitigating climate change.As the main hydrolysate of cellulose,a primary component of lignocellulose,glucose could be employed as a starting material to prepare some other functional derivatives for improving the value of biomass resources.The isomerization of glucose to produce fructose is an important intermediate process during numerous high-value-added chemical preparations.Therefore,the development of efficient and selective catalysts for glucose isomerization is of great significance.Currently,glucose isomerase catalysts are limited by the harsh conditions required for microbial activity,which restricts further improvements in fructose yield.Additionally,heterogeneous Bronsted-base and Lewis-acid catalysts commonly employed in chemical isomerization methods often lead to the formation of undesirable by-products,resulting in reduced selectivity toward fructose.This study has demonstrated that lithium-loaded heterogeneous catalysts possess excellent isomerization capabilities under mild conditions.A highly efficient Li-C_(3)N_(4) catalyst was developed,achieving a fructose selectivity of 99.9% and a yield of 42.6% at 60℃ within 1.0 h-comparable to the performance of the enzymatic method.Characterization using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),X-ray diffraction(XRD),proton nuclear magnetic resonance(^(1)H NMR),and inductively coupled plasma(ICP)analyses confirmed that lithium was stably incorporated into the g-C_(3)N_(4) framework through the formation of Li-N bonds.Further investigations using CO_(2) temperature-programmed desorption(CO_(2)-TPD),in situ Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR)and 7Li magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance(^(7)Li MAS NMR)indicated that the isomerization proceeded via a base-catalyzed mechanism.The Li species were found to interact with hydroxyl groups generated through hydrolysis and simultaneously coordinated with nitrogen atoms in the C_(3)N_(4) matrix,resulting in the formation of Li-N_(6)-H_(2)O active sites.These active sites facilitated the deprotonation of glucose to form an enolate intermediate,followed by a proton transfer step that generated fructose.This mechanism not only improved the efficiency of fructose production but also provided valuable insight into the catalytic role of lithium within the isomerization process.

文摘Nuclear excitation by electron capture(NEEC)is a fundamental process in nuclear physics.Despite its theoretical framework established nearly half a century ago,the experimental confirmation of NEEC remains elusive because of significant technical challenges.A notable effort to validate NEEC experimentally involved the enhanced ^(93m)Mo isomer-depletion experiment,which was ultimately hindered by substantial noise interference.This mini-review provides a brief historical overview of NEEC studies and explores the role of NEEC processes in astrophysical environments and laser-induced plasmas.Several platforms have been proposed to facilitate the observation of NEEC,including traditional cooling-storage rings,ion accelerators,and electron beam ion traps.These approaches aim to enhance the nuclear excitation rate,thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio.In addition,the employment of exotic vortex beams is discussed as a potential methodological approach to address these challenges.

文摘In this study,a pair of dicarboxylic acids as cis-trans isomerism—citraconic acid(CA)and mesaconic acid(MA),was incorporated into polymeric networks of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAM)-based core-shell microgels via semi-batch precipitation polymerization.We demonstrated that the pH-temperature dual responsiveness of the core-shell microgels is highly correlated with the structure and position of the acid isomers.Both the cis-trans molecular structure and the crosslinking position of the dicarboxylic acids significantly influenced the hydration capacity and surface charge density of the core-shell microgels.These diverse properties first influenced the swelling behavior,further affecting the interfacial behavior of the microgels,including the oil-water dynamic interfacial tension and air-water compression isotherms.Furthermore,the rheological behavior of the microgel suspensions also displayed distinct dependences on the frequency and temperature,illustrating that the cis-trans molecular structure and crosslinked position of the dicarboxylic acids also significantly influenced the interparticle clustering in the bulk solution.Our results suggest that the pH sensitivity of the cis-trans dicarboxylic acid isomer affects the ionization and surface charge distribution of the core or shell layers of individual microgels,which further determines the interparticle interaction and cooperative rearrangement at interfaces and in the bulk.

文摘Organic additives with multiple functional groups have shown great promise in improving the performance and stability of perovskite solar cells.The functional groups can passivate undercoordinated ions to reduce nonradiative recombination losses.However,how these groups synergistically affect the enhancement beyond passivation is still unclear.Specifically,isomeric molecules with different substitution patterns or molecular shapes remain elusive in designing new organic additives.Here,we report two isomeric carbazolyl bisphosphonate additives,2,7-Cz BP and 3,6-Cz BP.The isomerism effect on passivation and charge transport process was studied.The two molecules have similar passivation effects through multiple interactions,e.g.,P=O···Pb,P=O···H–N and N–H···I.2,7-CzBP can further bridge the perovskite crystallites to facilitates charge transport.Power conversion efficiencies(PCEs)of 25.88%and 21.04%were achieved for 0.09 cm^(2)devices and 14 cm^(2)modules after 2,7-Cz BP treatment,respectively.The devices exhibited enhanced operational stability maintaining 95%of initial PCE after 1000 h of continuous maximum power point tracking.This study of isomerism effect hints at the importance of tuning substitution positions and molecular shapes for organic additives,which paves the way for innovation of next-generation multifunctional aromatic additives.

文摘In recent years,the ternary strategy of adding a vip molecule to the active layer has been proven to be effective for improving the performance of organic solar cells(OSCs).Isomerization engineering of the vip molecule is a simple method to increase the amount of promising material,but there are only limited reports,and the structure-property relationships are still unclear.In this work,we synthesized three isomers named BTA5-F-o,BTA5-F-m,and BTA5-F-p,with different fluorine substitution positions,to study the influence of isomerization on the photovoltaic performance.After introducing them as the third components to the classic host system PM6:Y6,all three ternary devices showed improved power conversion efficiency(PCEs)compared to the binary system(PCE of 17.46%).The ternary OSCs based on BTA5-F-o achieved a champion PCE of 19.11%,while BTA5-F-m and BTA5-F-p realized PCEs of 18.65%and 18.45%,respectively.Mechanism studies have shown that the dipole moment of the BTA5-F-o end group is closer to that of the Y6 end group,despite the three isomers with almost identical energy levels and optical properties.It is indicated that the electron attraction ability of BTA5-F-o best matches that of Y6,which leads to the higher charge mobility,less charge recombination,and stronger exciton dissociation and extraction ability in the ternary blend system.This study suggests that rationally adjusting the position of substituents in the terminal group can be an effective way to construct nonfullerene vip acceptors to achieve highly efficient ternary OSCs.
