It was still a formidablechallenge to fabricate CPL-active perovskites with significant luminescent asymmetry factor (glum) and full-colour-tailorableCPL properties. Indeed, compared to isotropic perovskites, anisotropic perovskite nanowires (NWs)were conducive to carrier separation and transport for polarization enhancement. Herein, three types of CsPb(Br/I)3 NWs with green, orange, red fluorescence (FL) were respectively synthesized and assembled into chiral NWfilms. The right-handed/left-handed chiral NW films constructed by 4+4 layers and 45° inter-angles exhibitshighly symmetric and mirror-like chiral signals. The strongest chiral intensity is more than 3000 medg. CPLsignals with wide colour gamut produce ranging from 480 nm to 800 nm, and tailorable CPL wavelengths aremanipulated by the emission wavelength of perovskite NWs. A giant CPL signal with a maximum glum of up to 10^(-1) is achieved. The polarization imaging of chiral NW films produces brilliant differential circularly polarizedstructural colours, making it more widely used in multilevel anti-counterfeiting systems. A significant break-throughlies in the development of advanced chiral perovskite materials with remarkable glum and tailorable CPLproperties, which sheds new light on optical anti-counterfeiting and intelligent information encryption.展开更多

The dual-CP performance is realized based on the symmetrical septum circular polarizer based on the gap waveguide (GWG) technology. Two sets of symmetrical septum circular polarizers are used for common aperture combination,achieving the broadband dual-CP characteristics. Taking advantage of GWG structure without good electrical contact, the antenna can also be fabricated and assembled easily in the mmW band. The principle analysis of the antenna is given, and the antenna is simulated and fabricated. The measured results show that the bandwidth for S11lower than-10.7 dB and the axial ratio (AR) lower than 2.90 dB in 75-110 GHz, with realative bandwidth of 38%. Over the frequency band, the gain is higher than 9.16 dBic, and the dual-CP port isolation is greater than32 dB. The proposed antenna with dual-CP and highly isolated in a wide bandwidth range has broad application prospects in the field of mmW communication.展开更多

In this paper,a dual circularly polarized(CP) monostatic simultaneous transmit and receive(MSTAR) antenna with enhanced isolation is proposed to alleviate the problem. The proposed antenna consists of one sequentially rotating array(SRA), two beamforming networks(BFN), and a combined decoupling structure. The SRA is shared by the transmit and receive to reduce the size of the antenna and to obtain a consistent transmit and receive pattern.The BFN achieve right-hand CP for transmit and left-hand CP for receive. By exploring the combined decoupling structure of uniplanar compact electromagnetic band gap(UC-EBG) and ringshaped defected ground structure(RS-DGS), good transmitreceive isolation is achieved. The proposed antenna prototype is fabricated and experimentally characterized. The simulated and measured results show good agreement. The demonstrate transmit/receive isolation is height than 33 dB, voltage standing wave ratio is lower than 2, axial ratio is lower than 3 dB, and consistent radiation for both transmit and receive is within4.25-4.35 GHz.展开更多

In ...Background: Despite the recent development of new therapies, multiple myeloma(MM) remains an incurable disease. Thus, new, efective treatments are urgently needed, particularly for relapsed or refractory MM(RRMM). In an earlier phase I study, a novel form of recombinant human Apo2L/tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand(TRAIL) that is currently in clinical development for the treatment of hematologic malignancies, i.e., circularly permuted TRAIL(CPT), was well tolerated at a dose of 2.5 mg/kg per day and showed promising preliminary activity in patients with RRMM. This phase II, open-label, multicenter study further investigated the eicacy and safety of 2.5-mg/kg per day CPT as single-agent therapy for patients with RRMM.Methods: Patients with RRMM were treated once daily with CPT(2.5 mg/kg, intravenously) for 14 consecutive days for each 21-day cycle. Clinical response and toxicity were assessed after each treatment cycle.Results: Twenty-seven patients received CPT. Using the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation criteria, we calculated the overall response rate of 33.3% with 1 near-complete response(n CR) and 8 partial responses(PRs). The clinical beneit rate(48.1%) included 1 nCR, 8 PRs, and 4 minimal responses. The most common treatmentrelated adverse events(TRAEs) were fever, aspartate aminotransferase elevation, alanine aminotransferase elevation, leucopenia, rash, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia. We graded toxicity using the Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events, version 3.0, and determined that 37.0% of patients had at least 1 grade 3–4 TRAE.Conclusions: CPT as a single agent can elicit a response in patients with RRMM and is well tolerated. Further clinical investigation is warranted.展开更多

By changing the intensity ratio of the two driving laser fields, the spectral chirality of the HHG can be controlled. As the intensity ratio increases, the spectral chirality will change from positive-to negativevalue around a large intensity ratio of the two driving fields when the total laser intensity keeps unchanged. However, the sign of the spectral chirality can be changed from positive to negative around a small intensity ratio of the two driving fields when the total laser intensity changes. At this time, we can effectively control the helicity of the harmonic spectrum and the polarization of the resulting attosecond pulses by adjusting the intensity ratio of the two driving laser fields. As the intensity ratio and the total intensity of the driving laser fields increase, the relative intensity of either the left-circularly or right-circularly polarized harmonic can be enhanced. The attosecond pulses can evolve from being elliptical to near linear correspondingly.展开更多

文摘Although many racemic M4L6cages have been synthesized,little attention has been paid to the resolution of M4L6cages because resolution of these cages is very difficult.To explore the use of optically pure M4L6cages in chiral applications,it is important to obtain a single enantiomer.In this work,the anionicΛΛΛΛ-Zr_(4)L_(6)andΛΛΛΛ-Zr_(4)L_(6)(L=embonate)cages have been completely separated by introducing chiral organic ligands R/S-BINAP and 1S,2S/1R,2R-DPEN,respectively,and the active vertex of homochiral Zr_(4)L_(6)cage trapsπ-conjugated coordination silver cations(such as[Ag_(2)(DPPM)_(2)]^(2+),chiral[Ag_(2)(PPh_(3))_(2)(DPEN)]^(2+)and[Ag(PPh_(3))(DPEN)]^(+)),obtaining two pair of pure enantiomers(PTC-375(Λ/Λ)and PTC-376(Λ/Λ)).Interestingly,the chiral resolution and surface modification of such zirconium cage endow it with homochirality and significant circularly polarized luminescence(CPL)response,and PTC-376 enantiomers show a CPL output with glumvalues up to~1.4×10^(-2).This work not only provides a new resolution strategy for metal-organic cages,but also expands their chiral application especially in CPL field.

文摘Recently circularly polarized luminescence(CPL)materials have attracted significant interest.Introducing reversible dynamic property to these materials has been a key focus in cutting-edge fields,such as in high-level information encryption.Here,we provided a novel and general strategy involving handednessselective filtration and ground-state chiral self-recovery(CSR)in double film system to address this issue.Based on this strategy,we achieved CPL switch through the reversible modulation of ground-state chirality including absorption and scattering circular dichroism(CD)signals over the full UV-visible wavelength range(365-700 nm)in a single azobenzene polymer(PAzo)film.More importantly,by flexibly changing the type of fluorescent films,it is convenient to achieve general excited-state CSR,that is reversible switching of full-color including ideal white(CIE coordinate(0.33,0.33)),as well as room-temperature phosphorescent CPL.All these CPL signals without almost any intensity decay after three cycles of onand-off switching.Experimental results indicated that the trans-cis isomerization and ordered rearrangement of azobenzene units in PAzo film were the fundamental reasons for realizing CPL switching.Finally,based on this system we achieved dynamic visual encryption and decryption process including multiple decryption methods.This study provides an effective method for constructing a universally applicable chiroptical switch in excited state.

文摘Circularly polarized luminescence(CPL)-active materials have a wide range of technological applications.Traditionally,creating CPL-active materials relies on the use of chiral luminophores.In contrast,supramolecular assembly introduces an innovative and promising strategy for developing CPL-active materials not only from chiral luminophores but also from achiral species.This approach significantly enriches the diversity of CPL-active materials.It also offers an effective means to optimize the performance of CPL-active materials,such as enhancing the asymmetry factor|glum|.Compared to polymers,the assembly of small molecules is generally easier to control.This review systematically summarizes the recent progress and developments in CPL from small-molecule assemblies,particularly focusing on differences,merits,and demerits of three typical assembly modes.The aim is to provide valuable insights for the future development of chiroptical materials.

文摘Metal-complexed chiral macrocyclic architectures have attracted increasing research interests in circularly polarized luminescence owing to their distinctive structural and functional attributes.The method of metal coordination has emerged as a robust methodology for chirality induction in many systems.In this work,we engineered two rigid and flexible chiral organic ligands(L_(1) and L_(2))by synergizing the inherent planar chirality of pillar[5]arenes with tailored metal-coordination moieties.They demonstrate versatile coordination capabilities toward both 3d-and 4f-block metals,enabling modulation of luminescent characteristics with blue,green and red emissions.Four planar chiral complexes exhibiting CPL activity were synthesized through systematic coordination of L_(1)/L_(2) with Zn^(2+),Eu^(3+),and Tb^(3+).The coordination processes effectively rigidify molecular conformations,leading to an enhanced CPL performance.Particularly,the Tb-L_(2) complex displays superior lanthanide-centered emission with a fluorescence quantum yield of~55%and an emission dissymmetry factor glum=5.5×10^(-3).By engineering the substitution on pillar[5]arene scaffolds,we have established a metal-coordination platform with CPL characteristics,which paves the way in the design of new metal-based luminescent materials.

文摘Non-covalent interactions-driven host-vip assembly based on metallo-tweezers has been used to construct varied optical functional materials with attractive structures and properties.We reported here two pairs of chiral gold(Ⅰ)-based metallo-tweezers as hosts to clip Ag^(Ⅰ)or Cu^(Ⅰ)cations for circularly polarized phosphorescence(CPP),driven by the integration of two-fold coordination and heterometallophilic interactions.The Au^(Ⅰ)-based hosts and metal ions-vips formed sandwich structures in 1:1 ratio with high binding affinity.The achieved tweezer/cation adducts exhibited red-shifted absorption bands and circular dichroism signals,which were attributed to the newly formed ligand to metal-metal charge transfer process.Remarkably,the host-vip supramolecular adducts showed turn-on phosphorescence and CPP,which benefited from rigidifying effect of multiple intermolecular interactions and shorter excited-state lifetime.Overall,our findings bring new insights into the feasibility to achieve and modulate CPP performance by fabricating metallo-tweezer-based host-vip complexes.
文摘A millimeter-wave (mmW) broadband dual circularly polarized (dual-CP) antenna with high port isolation is proposed in this paper. The dual-CP performance is realized based on the symmetrical septum circular polarizer based on the gap waveguide (GWG) technology. Two sets of symmetrical septum circular polarizers are used for common aperture combination,achieving the broadband dual-CP characteristics. Taking advantage of GWG structure without good electrical contact, the antenna can also be fabricated and assembled easily in the mmW band. The principle analysis of the antenna is given, and the antenna is simulated and fabricated. The measured results show that the bandwidth for S11lower than-10.7 dB and the axial ratio (AR) lower than 2.90 dB in 75-110 GHz, with realative bandwidth of 38%. Over the frequency band, the gain is higher than 9.16 dBic, and the dual-CP port isolation is greater than32 dB. The proposed antenna with dual-CP and highly isolated in a wide bandwidth range has broad application prospects in the field of mmW communication.

文摘Separated transmit and receive antennas are employed to improve transmit-receive isolation in conventional short-range radars, which greatly increases the antenna size and misaligns of the transmit/receive radiation patterns. In this paper,a dual circularly polarized(CP) monostatic simultaneous transmit and receive(MSTAR) antenna with enhanced isolation is proposed to alleviate the problem. The proposed antenna consists of one sequentially rotating array(SRA), two beamforming networks(BFN), and a combined decoupling structure. The SRA is shared by the transmit and receive to reduce the size of the antenna and to obtain a consistent transmit and receive pattern.The BFN achieve right-hand CP for transmit and left-hand CP for receive. By exploring the combined decoupling structure of uniplanar compact electromagnetic band gap(UC-EBG) and ringshaped defected ground structure(RS-DGS), good transmitreceive isolation is achieved. The proposed antenna prototype is fabricated and experimentally characterized. The simulated and measured results show good agreement. The demonstrate transmit/receive isolation is height than 33 dB, voltage standing wave ratio is lower than 2, axial ratio is lower than 3 dB, and consistent radiation for both transmit and receive is within4.25-4.35 GHz.
文摘Background: Despite the recent development of new therapies, multiple myeloma(MM) remains an incurable disease. Thus, new, efective treatments are urgently needed, particularly for relapsed or refractory MM(RRMM). In an earlier phase I study, a novel form of recombinant human Apo2L/tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand(TRAIL) that is currently in clinical development for the treatment of hematologic malignancies, i.e., circularly permuted TRAIL(CPT), was well tolerated at a dose of 2.5 mg/kg per day and showed promising preliminary activity in patients with RRMM. This phase II, open-label, multicenter study further investigated the eicacy and safety of 2.5-mg/kg per day CPT as single-agent therapy for patients with RRMM.Methods: Patients with RRMM were treated once daily with CPT(2.5 mg/kg, intravenously) for 14 consecutive days for each 21-day cycle. Clinical response and toxicity were assessed after each treatment cycle.Results: Twenty-seven patients received CPT. Using the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation criteria, we calculated the overall response rate of 33.3% with 1 near-complete response(n CR) and 8 partial responses(PRs). The clinical beneit rate(48.1%) included 1 nCR, 8 PRs, and 4 minimal responses. The most common treatmentrelated adverse events(TRAEs) were fever, aspartate aminotransferase elevation, alanine aminotransferase elevation, leucopenia, rash, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia. We graded toxicity using the Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events, version 3.0, and determined that 37.0% of patients had at least 1 grade 3–4 TRAE.Conclusions: CPT as a single agent can elicit a response in patients with RRMM and is well tolerated. Further clinical investigation is warranted.

文摘In this paper,a new compact ultrawideband(UWB)circularly polarized(CP)antenna array for vehicular communications is proposed.The antenna array consists of a 2×2 sequentially rotated T-shaped cross dipole,four parasitic elements,and a feeding network.By loading the T-shaped cross dipoles with parasitic rectangular elements with cut corners,the bandwidth can be expanded.On this basis,the radiation pattern can be improved by the topology with sequential rotation of four T-shaped cross-dipole antennas,and the axial ratio(AR)bandwidth of the antenna also can be further enhanced.In addition,due to the special topology that the vertical arms of all Tshaped cross dipoles are all oriented toward the center of the antenna array,the gain of proposed antenna is improved while the size of the antenna is almost the same as the traditional cross dipole.Simulated and measured results show that the proposed antenna has good CP characteristics,an impedance bandwidth for S11<-10 d B of about 106.1%(3.26:1,1.57-5.12 GHz)and the 3-d B AR bandwidth of about 104.1%(3.17:1,1.57-4.98 GHz),a wide 3-d B gain bandwidth of 73.3%as well as the peak gain of 8.6 d Bic at 3.5 GHz.The overall size of antenna is 0.56λ×0.56λ×0.12λ(λrefers to the wavelength of the lowest operating frequency in free space).The good performance of this compact UWB CP antenna array is promising for applications in vehicular communications.

文摘Circularly polarized light(CPL)has been given great attention because of its extensive application.While several devices for CPL detection have been studied,their performance is affected by the magnitude of photocurrent.In this paper,a self-powered photodetector based on hot electrons in chiral metamaterials is proposed and optimized.CPL can be distinguished by the direction of photocurrent without external bias owing to the interdigital electrodes with asymmetric chiral metamaterials.Distinguished by the direction of photocurrent,the device can easily detect the rotation direction of the CPL electric field,even if it only has a very weak responsivity.The responsivity of the proposed detector is near 1.9 mA/W at the wavelength of 1322 nm,which is enough to distinguish CPL.The detector we proposed has the potential for application in optical communication.

文摘In this work,a novel compact wideband reconfigurable circularly polarised(CP)dielectric resonator antenna(DRA)is presented.The L-shaped Dielectric resonator antenna is excited by an inverted question mark shaped feed.This arrangement of feed-line helps to generate two orthogonal modes inside the DR,which makes the design circularly polarised.A thin micro-strip line placed on the defected ground plane not only helps to generate a wideband response but also assist in the positioning of the two diode switches.These switches located at the left and right of the micro-strip line helps in performing two switching operations.The novel compact design offers the reconfigurability between 2.9–3.8 GHz which can be used for different important wireless applications.For the switching operation I,the achieved impedance bandwidth is 24%while axial ratio bandwidth(ARBW)is 42%.For this switching state,the design has 100%CP performance.Similarly,the switching operation II achieves 60%impedance bandwidth and 58.88%ARBW with 76.36%CP performance.The proposed design has a maximum measured gain of 3.4 dBi and 93%radiation efficiency.The proposed design is novel in terms of compactness and performance parameters.The prototype is fabricated for the performance analysis which shows that the simulated and measured results are in close agreement.

文摘We theoretically investigate the high-order harmonic generation(HHG) of helium atom driven by bichromatic counterrotating circularly polarized laser fields. By changing the intensity ratio of the two driving laser fields, the spectral chirality of the HHG can be controlled. As the intensity ratio increases, the spectral chirality will change from positive-to negativevalue around a large intensity ratio of the two driving fields when the total laser intensity keeps unchanged. However, the sign of the spectral chirality can be changed from positive to negative around a small intensity ratio of the two driving fields when the total laser intensity changes. At this time, we can effectively control the helicity of the harmonic spectrum and the polarization of the resulting attosecond pulses by adjusting the intensity ratio of the two driving laser fields. As the intensity ratio and the total intensity of the driving laser fields increase, the relative intensity of either the left-circularly or right-circularly polarized harmonic can be enhanced. The attosecond pulses can evolve from being elliptical to near linear correspondingly.
