However, current research has not taken biomimetic electrical functional units into consideration when designing biomedical implants. In this research, ordered structures with Schottky heterojunction functional unit (OSSH) were constructed on titanium implant surfaces for bone regeneration regulation. The Schottky heterojunction functional unit is composed of periodically distributed titanium microdomain and titanium oxide microdomain with different carrier densities and surface potentials. The OSSH regulates the M2-type polarization of macrophages to a regenerative immune response by activating the PI3K-AKT-mTOR signal pathway and further promotes osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. This work provides fundamental insights into the biological effects driven by the Schottky heterojunction functional units that can electrically modulate osteogenesis.展开更多

文摘The ground-state magnetic ordering of uranium mononitride(UN)remains a contentious topic due to the unexpected lack of crystallographic distortion in the traditionally accepted 1k antiferromagnetic(AFM)state.This discrepancy casts doubt on the validity of the 1k magnetic ordering of UN.Here,we investigate the crystal structure,high-pressure phase transitions,and dynamical and mechanical properties of UN in its 1k and 3k AFM ground states using density functional theory(DFT).Our results reveal that the undistorted 3k AFM state of Fm3m within the DFT+U+SOC scheme is more consistent with experimental results.The Hubbard U and spin-orbit coupling(SOC)are critical for accurately capturing the crystal structure,high-pressure structural phase transition,and dynamical properties of UN.In addition,we have identified a new high-pressure magnetic phase transition from the nonmagnetic(NM)phase of R3m to the P63/mmc AFM state.Electronic structure analysis reveals that the magnetic ordering in the ground state is primarily linked to variations in partial 5f orbital distributions.Our calculations provide valuable theoretical insights into the complex magnetic structures of a typical strongly correlated uranium-based compound.Moreover,they provide a framework for understanding other similar actinide systems.

文摘Herein,a ternary supramolecular assembly(BPP-BQ?CB[8]-SCD)is successfully constructed by a bromophenylpyridine-tethered-bromoisoquinoline(BPP-BQ),cucurbit[8]uril(CB[8])and sulfonatedβ-cyclodextrin(SCD)via successive assembling way,exhibiting progressively enhanced green roomtemperature phosphorescence(RTP).The self-aggregates of BPP-BQ?CB[8]-SCD accommodate an energy acceptor rhodamine B(Rh B)to form a light-harvesting system(BPP-BQ?CB[8]-SCD@Rh B)with further enhanced yellow long-lifetime luminescence with large Stokes shift based on triplet-singlet F?rster resonance energy transfer(TS-FRET).Crucially,the introduction of a photoactive diarylethene achieves the long-lived photoluminescence of BPP-BQ?CB[8]-SCD@Rh B to be switched with the efficiency of up to98%through logically ordered lowering/enhancing RTP performance of the energy donor and intercepting/restoring TS-FRET pathway,when stimulated by host-vip competition and light illumination in sequence.Moreover,BPP-BQ?CB[8]-SCD@Rh B is evenly doped into polyvinyl alcohol or polyacrylamide to obtain high-performance luminescent films with long afterglow.The abovementioned logically ordered stimulus-switched long-lived emission enables the light-harvesting system in both solution and solid state to be applied in high-security-level information encryption and transformation,and anticounterfeiting.

文摘This study systematically investigates the influences of annealing treatment on the energy state,microstructure and macroscopic mechanical behaviors of metallic glasses(MGs).By reducing the energy state,the annealing process significantly enhances the structural ordering degree and uniformity of MGs,thereby improving their overall mechanical reliability.Specifically,annealing promotes the formation of localized icosahedral short-range order,a structural signature that contributes to improved nanohardness and tensile strength.Furthermore,the release and redistribution of internal stress during annealing further optimize the internal stress state,significantly enhancing the fracture resistance and achieving reliable mechanical performance.This study not only elucidates the regulatory mechanisms of annealing on the microstructure of MGs but also provides theoretical support and experimental evidence for exploring MG materials with high strength and high fracture reliability.

文摘Mimicking the electric microenvironment of natural tissue is a promising strategy for developing biomedical implants. However, current research has not taken biomimetic electrical functional units into consideration when designing biomedical implants. In this research, ordered structures with Schottky heterojunction functional unit (OSSH) were constructed on titanium implant surfaces for bone regeneration regulation. The Schottky heterojunction functional unit is composed of periodically distributed titanium microdomain and titanium oxide microdomain with different carrier densities and surface potentials. The OSSH regulates the M2-type polarization of macrophages to a regenerative immune response by activating the PI3K-AKT-mTOR signal pathway and further promotes osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. This work provides fundamental insights into the biological effects driven by the Schottky heterojunction functional units that can electrically modulate osteogenesis.
文摘In the era of Big Data,the attention economy has emerged as a core logic of capital accumulation,yet behavioral economic explanations fail to penetrate the unconscious drives and desire structures underlying attention investment.This paper adopts Lacan’s topological framework of the three orders(the Real,the Symbolic,and the Imaginary)to conduct a psychoanalytic dissection of the attention economy.It argues that Big Data-driven attention mechanisms essentially manipulate desire across these three orders:algorithms,functioning as the“digital big Other,”exploit the Real’s traumatic surplus and the deferred structure of desire through infinite scroll and traumatic stimuli;regulate identity production in the Symbolic via visibility laws,social currency,and datafication;and construct narcissistic illusions in the Imaginary through filters,filter bubbles,and illusions of hyperconnection.Ultimately,the paper proposes an ethics of lucid attention,calling for critical algorithmic literacy,confrontation with the Real’s lack,dismantling of Imaginary illusions,and reclaiming sovereignty over attention-essential for preserving subjective dignity and human freedom in the digital age.

文摘Weak interactions prevent the magnetic particles from achieving excellent electromagnetic wave absorp-tion(EMA)at a low filler loading(FL).The construction of one-dimensional magnetic metal fibers(1D-MMFs)contributes to the formation of an electromagnetic(EM)coupling network,enhancing EM properties at a low FL.However,precisely controlling the length of 1D-MMFs to regulate permittivity at low FL poses a challenge.Herein,a novel magnetic field-assisted growth strategy was used to fabricate Co-based fibers with adjustable permittivity and aspect ratios.With a variety of FL changes,centimeter-level Co long fibers(Co-lf)consistently exhibited higher permittivity than Co particles and Co short fibers due to the enhancement of the effective EM coupling.The Co-lf exhibits excellent EMA performance(-54.85 dB,5.8 GHz)at 10 wt.%FL.Meanwhile,heterogeneous interfaces were introduced to increase the interfacial polarization through a fine phosphorylation design,resulting in elevated EMA performances(-51.50 dB,6.6 GHz)at 10 wt.%FL for Co_(2)P/Co long fibers.This study improves the orderliness of the particle arrangement by regulating the length of 1D-MMFs,which affects the behavior of electrons inside the fibers,providing a new perspective for improving the EMA properties of magnetic materials at a low FL.

文摘Hierarchical lignin-derived ordered mesoporous carbon(HOMC)was significant for advanced supercapacitors.However,achieving controllable fabrication and optimizing electrochemical behavior were challenging.In this work,an eco-friendly HOMC was synthesized using lignin as carbon precursors and Zn^(2+)as cross-linking and pore-forming agents,followed by KHCO_(3)activation,eliminating the need for toxic phenolic resins and acid treatments for metal removal.Machine learning technology,specifically an Artificial Neural Network(ANN model,was utilized to assist the experimental design and prediction.The ANN model suggested an ideal hierarchical structure and optimized oxygen level,achieved through the adjustment of Zn^(2+)additive concentration,carbonization temperature,and subsequent KHCO_(3)activation to maximize capacitance.The HOMC electrode,with a micropore-to-mesopore ratio(S_(micro)/S_(meso))of 1.01 and an oxygen content of 8.81 at%,acquired a specific capacitance of 362 F·g^(-1)at 0.5 A·g^(-1)in 6 mol·L^(-1)KOH electrolyte.The assembled HOMC//HOMC supercapacitor could afford a high energy density of 33.38 Wh·kg^(-1)with a corresponding specific power density of 300 W·kg^(-1)in TEATFB PC electrolyte.Meanwhile,the long-term cycle stability of 94.33%was achieved after 20,000 cycles.This work provides an ANN assisted strategy for the synthesis of HOMC,highlighting its potential to valorize biomass and agricultural waste in sustainable energy storag solutions.

文摘The short-range ordering(SRO)structure has been considered as a toughening method to improve the mechanical properties of high-entropy alloys(HEAs).However,the strengthening mechanism of the SRO structures on the HEAs still needs to be further revealed.Here,the effect of element distribution,Al content,crack orientation,temperature,and strain rate on the crack propagation behavior of the AlxFeCoCrNi HEAs are investigated using Monte Carlo(MC)/molecular dynamics(MD)simulation methods.Two HEA models are considered,one with five elements randomly distributed in the alloys,i.e.RSS_HEAs,and the other presenting SRO structure in the alloys,namely SRO_HEAs.The results show that Al atoms play a decisive role in the SRO degree of the HEA.The higher the Al content,the greater the SRO degree of the HEA,and the stronger the resistance of the SRO structure to crack propagation in the alloys.The results indicate that the reinforcement effect of the SRO structure in the model with the(111)[110]crack is more significant than that with the(111)[110]crack.The results show that the crack length of the alloys at maximum strain does not monotonically increase with temperature,but rather exhibits a turning point at the temperature of 400 K.When the temperature is below 400 K,the crack length of the alloys increases with the increase of temperature,while above 400 K,the opposite trend appears.In addition,the results indicate that the crack length of the alloys decreases with increasing strain rate under the same strain.
