文摘This article investigates the second overtone thickness-extensional(TE2)vibrations and associated mode-coupling behaviors in ZnO piezoelectric film bulk acoustic resonator(FBAR),utilizing its wave dispersion relation and the higher-order stress balance principle.By superimposing the general wave solutions of multiple eigenmodes within the frequency range of the TE2 mode,mode-coupling solutions for ZnO FBAR are constructed.The substitution of these mode-coupling solutions into the higher-order stress balance principle,as laterally weak boundary conditions,leads to the frequency spectrogram equation,determining the relationship between resonance frequency and plate length-to-thickness ratio.A modified algorithm that combines the bisection method and the complex modulus ratio method is developed to solve the dispersion equation and frequency spectrogram equation(namely a kind of 2D complex transcendental equations)accurately and efficiently.The obtained results indicate that the operational TE2 mode may couple to unwanted 3^(rd)thickness-shear,fundamental thickness-shear,and flexural modes.Moreover,the mode-coupling behaviors depend strongly on resonance frequencies and plate length-to-thickness ratio.The displacement distributions of total displacement components,alongside the main displacement com-ponents of all considered eigenmodes,clearly demonstrate the variety of coupling behaviors.According to the obtained frequency spectrograms,the desirable values of plate length-to-thickness ratio for a clean operating mode with very weak coupling intensity are determined.These findings are of vital importance for the understanding of the mode-coupling me-chanism in overtone thickness-extensional FBARs,which will facilitate the structural design and optimization of FBAR devices.
文摘This paper reports the preparation of three di‑iron complexes containing a thiazole moiety.Esterification of complex[Fe_(2)(CO)_(6)(μ‑SCH_(2)CH(CH_(2)OH)S)](1)with 4‑methylthiazole‑5‑carboxylic acid gave the corresponding ester[Fe_(2)(CO)_(6)(μ‑tedt)](2),where tedt=SCH_(2)CH(CH_(2)OOC(5‑C_(3)HNSCH_(3)))S.Further reactions of complex 2 with tri(ptolyl)phosphine(tp)or tris(4‑fluorophenyl)phosphine(fp)gave the phosphine‑substituted derivatives[Fe_(2)(CO)_(5)(tp)(μ‑tedt)](3)and[Fe_(2)(CO)_(5)(fp)(μ‑tedt)](4).The structures of the newly prepared complexes were elucidated by elemental analysis,NMR,IR,and X‑ray photoelectron spectroscopy.Moreover,single‑crystal X‑ray diffraction analysis confirmed their molecular structures,showing that they contain a di‑iron core ligated by a bridged dithiolate bearing a thiazole moiety and terminal carbonyls.The electrochemical and electrocatalytic proton reduction were probed by cyclic voltammetry,revealing that three complexes can catalyze the reduction of protons to H_(2) under the electrochemical conditions.For comparison,complex 4 possessed the best efficiency with a turnover frequency of 23.5 s^(-1)at 10 mmol·L^(-1)HOAc concentration.In addition,the fungicidal activity of these complexes was also investigated in this study.CCDC:2477511,2;2477512,3;2477513,4.

文摘While biomaterials are endowed with sophisticated functions by the temporal dynamics and autonomy derived from non-equilibrium assemblies in biological systems,fabricating advanced materials counterparts with these features through kinetic control remains rare.Herein,we report a non-equilibrium hydrogel that exhibits autonomous time-dependent ultrabright fluorescence(quantum yield 0.90),achieved through the kinetically controlled incorporation of thermodynamic equilibrium host-vip complexes into a poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)(PHEMA)network.Transient complexes are programmed by coupling rapid assembly kinetics with the slow competitive binding of the polymer matrix.This kinetic mismatch converts a thermodynamic equilibrium supramolecular system into a non-equilibrium state,generating temporally dynamic fluorescence that cyclically shifts from yellow to green and self-reverts.The programmed temporal dynamics endow the hydrogel with high potential for information encryption applications.
文摘The complexes 1-4 of cyclobutanocucurbit[5]uril(CyB5Q[5])with Na^(+)/K^(+)have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The results show that although the inorganic salts are used when the cations are the same and the anions are different,in complex 1,Na^(+)closes one port of CyB5Q[5]through Na—O seven coordination bonds to form a molecular bowl;in complex 3,Na^(+)completely closes the two ports of CyB5Q[5]to form a molecular capsule with six Na—O coordination bonds;in complexes 2 and 4,the two ports of CyB5Q[5]are completely closed to form K—O coordinated molecular capsules,but the K^(+)of complex 2 is six-coordinated and that of complex 4 is eight-/nine-coordinated.and complex 4 are connected by three oxygen bridges to form a 1D molecular chain.CCDC:2457122,1;2457121,2;2457400,3;2457120,4.

文摘Cisplatin(CDDP)-based chemotherapy is an effective strategy for the treatment of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC).However,serious toxic side effects of CDDP limit patient tolerance and treatment compliance,which urgently needs to be addressed in clinical application.Liposomes have been considered ideal vehicles for reducing CDDP toxicity due to their high biocompatibility,low toxicity and passive targeting ability.Nevertheless,CDDP's poor water/lipid solubility usually results in a low liposome druglipid ratio,limiting tumor delivery ability.Herein,a CDDP-polyphenol complex liposome was designed to increase the drug loading capacity of CDDP to realize the reduction of toxicity and effective antitumor effect simultaneously.The complex was prepared via complexation reaction of different stoichiometric ratios of CDDP and polyphenolic substances(gallic acid,epigallocatechin gallate and tannic acid),followed by encapsulation of complex in liposomes to improve tumor targeting.Notably,the molecular interaction forces between CDDP and polyphenolic substances were intensively investigated through a binding force disruption assay.In vitro studies demonstrated that the optimal formulation of CDDP-epigallocatechin gallate complex liposome(CDDP-EGCG Lips) showed the highest CDDP encapsulation efficiency,favorable stability,pH-sensitive release,enhanced cellular uptake and apoptosis effect.In vivo studies revealed that CDDP-EGCG Lips retarded the elimination of CDDP to prolong their circulation time,inhibited the growth of tumors,and significantly reduced the toxic side effects compared to CDDP monotherapy.This delivery strategy holds great promise for improving the clinical use of platinum-based drugs.

文摘Enhancing the catalytic activity of catalysts is a core objective in their design and synthesis processes,and the accessibility of active sites is one of the crucial factors determining catalyst activity.Polyoxometalate-based metal-organic complexes(POMOCs)with well-defined structures,which combine the advantages of POMs and MOCs,may offer the possibility to construct catalysts with highly accessible active sites.In this study,a series of POMOCs were successfully designed and synthesized using different POM templates,including[CoII1.5(L)1.5(PMo12O40)(H_(2)O)4]·3H_(2)O(Co-PMo12),[CoII1.5(L)1.5(PW12O40)(H_(2)O)4]·3H_(2)O(Co-PW12),[CoII2(L)2-(SiW12O40)(H_(2)O)4]·11H_(2)O(Co-SiW12),and H[CoII2.5(L)3-(P2W18O62)(H_(2)O)8]·10H_(2)O(Co-P2W18),which were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,powder X-ray diffraction,and single crystal X-ray diffraction.The differences in catalytic activity among the four POMOCs for olefin epoxidation were attributed to the distinct accessibility of Co(II)sites upon thermal activation.Among them,Co-P2W18 achieved a remarkable 99%yield of 1,2-epoxycyclooctane within 3 h at room temperature using O_(2)as the oxidant,owing to its highly accessible unsaturated Co(II)sites.Co-P2W18 exhibits significantly superior catalytic activity for the cyclooctene epoxidation reaction compared to most reported catalysts.Additionally,the reaction mechanism was investigated using density functional theory.

文摘Charge-transfer complexes(CTCs)have emerged as promising n-type organic thermoelectric(TE)materials due to their inherent high electrical conductivity and tunable transport polarities.In this study,we performed a comprehensive first-principles investigation on the TE properties of nine CTCs comprised of 2,7-dialkyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophenes(CnBTBT,n=4,8,12)as donors and fluorinated derivatives of tetracyanoquinodimethane(F_(m)TCNQ,m=0,2,4)as acceptors,aiming to identify high-performance n-type organic TE materials and elucidate the underlying structure-property relationships.Our calculation results,based on the Boltzmann transport equation and deformation potential theory,reveal that the length of the alkyl side chains and the number of fluorine substitutions significantly impact their electronic structures and TE properties.Notably,the CnBTBT-F_(m)TCNQ CTCs with shorter alkyl chains and more fluorine substitution demonstrate superior n-type characteristics,particularly C4BTBT-F4TCNQ,which achieves an excellent power factor of 671µW cm^(-1) K^(-2) at an optimal charge carrier concentration.Our findings not only clarify the critical role of molecular engineering in CTC-based TE materials but also provide valuable guidance for developing high-efficiency organic TE materials with versatile practical applications.

文摘Lignified stone cells are a unique feature of pear fruit,significantly affecting fruit texture.Even though some research efforts have already been made,the stone cell formation mechanism is complex,with many aspects yet to be elucidated.Here,through a genome-wide association analysis of stone cell traits,we identified PbrMADS1,a member of the SEPALLATA3(SEP3)subfamily,as a candidate gene specifically expressed in stone cells during early fruit development.Functional studies confirmed that PbrMADS1 promotes stone cell formation;however,it does not directly activate lignin-related genes.Instead,Pbr MADS1 interacts with PbrMYB169,enhancing PbrMYB169's binding to AC elements and amplifying downstream gene activation.Notably,homologous MADS1 and MYB169 proteins from closely related species such as apple and loquat do not form a similar complex.Sequence analysis revealed that the protein sequence of PbrMADS1 contains methionine(M)at the 63rdamino acid position,while apple and loquat homologs carry threonine(T)at the same site.Substituting M with T(PbrMADS1^(M63T))weakened its interaction with Pbr MYB169 and impaired its function in regulating stone cell formation.This study offers new insights into MADS gene-mediated stone cell formation and highlights functional divergence within the SEP3 subfamily among apple tribe species of the Rosaceae family.
