Herein, we wish to report a coumarin-thiazolidine masked D-penicillamine based dual-modality fluorescent probe COU-DPA-1 for selective detection, differentiation, and detoxification of multiple heavy metal ions(Ag^(+), Hg^(2+), Cu^(2+)). The probe shows divergent fluorescence(FL)/circular dichroism(CD) responses via divergent bond-cleavage cascade reactions(metal ion promoted C-S cleavage and hydrolysis at two distinctive cleavage sites): FL “turn-off” and CD “turn-on” for Ag+(no hydrolysis), FL “turn-on” and CD “turn-off” for Hg^(+)(imine hydrolysis), and FL “self-threshold ratiometric” and CD “turn-off” for excess Cu^(2+)(lactone and imine hydrolysis), providing the first example of a fluorescence/CD dual-modality probe for multiple species with complimentary responses. Moreover, the bond-cleavage cascade reactions also lead to the formation of D-penicillamine heavy metal ion complexes for potential detoxification treatments.展开更多

The longitudinal relaxivity (rl) of the PCL-b-PEG- DTPA-Gd3+ micelle was 13.4 (mmol/L)^-1s^-1, three folds of that of DTPA-Gd3+, and higher than that of many polymeric contrast agents with similar structures. The in vivo optical imaging of a nude mouse bearing xenografied breast tumor showed that the dual-modality micelle preferentially accumulated in the tumor via the folic acid-mediated active targeting and the passive accumulation by the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. The results indicated that the dualmodality micelle is a promising nano-probe for cancer detection and diagnosis.展开更多

Herein,a novel photoelectrochemical-electrochemical(PEC-EC) dual-mode biosensing platform for dual-target assays of mi RNA-133a and c Tn I was developed. In which, a PEC-EC dual-mode sensing platform for mi RNA-133a was constructed based on the changes of the photocurrent inhibition effect and the electrochemical signal of Fc on the Fc-hairpin DNA probe(Fc-HP)/Zn Cd S-quantum dots(QDs)/ITO electrode. Furthermore, under magnetic separation and the specific interaction between c Tn I and its aptamer, the N-doped porous carbon-Zn O polyhedra(NPC-Zn O)-hemin-capture DNA probe hybrid(NH-CP) was obtained and introduced to the Fc-HP/Zn Cd S-QDs/ITO electrode via hybridization between NH-CP and Fc-HP. The hemin molecules encapsulated in NH-CP could effectively induce the photocurrent-polarity-switching of the FcHP/Zn Cd S-QDs/ITO electrode and generate a new electrochemical signal originating from hemin. Thus,c Tn I was assayed sensitively and selectively by the PEC-EC dual-mode biosensing platform. Here, Fc and hemin not only serve as the electrochemical indicators, but also respectively inhibit the photocurrent and switch the photocurrent polarity of Zn Cd S-QDs. Furthermore, the proposed biosensing platform could be easily expanded to the detection of other multiplex-type biomarkers via the change of the sequences of the related DNA probes, implying its significant potential in clinical diagnosis and biological analysis.展开更多

Therefore, a novel DMF with a offset-feed bended coupling structure and a stepped-impedance dual- mode resonator is proposed for coupling enhancement and spurious response suppression. Based on the analysis of the change of spur frequencies and the current distribution of spur resonant modes, all spurs near passband of the cascaded DMF can be fully suppressed by optimizing the structure parameters of parasite resonators, which bene- fits from the inherent well-controlled transmission zeros. Experimental results show that the proposed DMF ex- hibits lower insertion loss ,much sharper rate of cutoff and wider spur-free stop band compared with conventional DMF. This design is applicable for spur suppression in wideband communication.展开更多

The proposed hybrid current control scheme integrates the deadbeat control and the dual-mode structure repetitive control (DMRC) so that it can offer superior steady-state performance and good transient features. Unlike the conventional schemes, the proposed scheme-based APF can compensate both the odd and the even order harmonics in grid. The detailed design criteria and the stability analysis of the proposed hybrid current controller are presented. Moreover, an improved structure which incorporates the proposed hybrid controller and the resonant controller for tracking specific order harmonics is given. The relationships between the resonant controller and different repetitive control schemes are discussed. Experimental results verify the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed hybrid control scheme.展开更多

Since the neural network training based on the expert knowledge database is conducted off-line, the benefits for developing real-time tracking capabilities can be obtained. The network outputs the confidence degree denoted by the weight value of target information in the data fusion center according to two input variables of the measurement noise covariance and the tracking filter covariance. Simulation results show that the improved system can differentiate the target tracking information from the seeker fast and accurately.展开更多

Herein,we report a facile method to prepare green and NIR dual-mode afterglow of carbon dots(CDs) through in situ embedding o-CDs(being prepared from o-phenylenediamine) into cyanuric acid(CA) matrix(named o-CDs@CA). Further studies reveal that the green and NIR afterglows of o-CDs@CA originate from thermal activated delayed fluorescence(TADF) and room temperature phosphorescence(RTP) of o-CDs,respectively. In addition,the formation of covalent bonds between o-CDs and CA,and the presence of multiple fixation and rigid e ects to the triplet states of o-CDs are confirmed to be critical for activating the observed dual-mode afterglow. Due to the shorter lifetime and insensitiveness to human vision of the NIR RTP of o-CDs@CA,it is completely covered by the green TADF during directly observing. The NIR RTP signal,however,can be readily captured if an optical filter(cut-o wavelength of 600 nm) being used. By utilizing these unique features,the applications of o-CDs@CA in anti-counterfeiting and information encryption have been demonstrated with great confidentiality. Finally,the as-developed method was confirmed to be applicable to many other kinds of CDs for achieving or enhancing their afterglow performances.展开更多

文摘Tumor-targeted immunotherapy is a remarkable breakthrough,offering the inimitable advantage of specific tumoricidal effects with reduced immune-associated cytotoxicity.However,existing platforms suffer from low efficacy,inability to induce strong immunogenic cell death(ICD),and restrained capacity of transforming immune-deserted tumors into immune-cultivated ones.Here,an innovative platform,perfluorooctyl bromide(PFOB)nanoemulsions holding MnO_(2) nanoparticles(MBP),was developed to orchestrate cancer immunotherapy,serving as a theranostic nanoagent for MRI/CT dual-modality imaging and advanced ICD.By simultaneously depleting the GSH and eliciting the ICD effect via highintensity focused ultrasound(HIFU)therapy,the MBP nanomedicine can regulate the tumor immune microenvironment by inducing maturation of dendritic cells(DCs)and facilitating the activation of CD8^(+)and CD4^(+)T cells.The synergistic GSH depletion and HIFU ablation also amplify the inhibition of tumor growth and lung metastasis.Together,these findings inaugurate a new strategy of tumor-targeted immunotherapy,realizing a novel therapeutics paradigm with great clinical significance.

文摘Because of the intrinsic defects of traditional treatment of cancer,it is quite needed to construct novel theranostic nanoagents that can not only improve the accuracy of imaging diagnosis but also achieve highly efficient therapy of cancer.Herein,we fabricated polydopamine-functionalized ammonium holmium fluoride nanocomposites(AHF@PDA)for dual-modality bioimaging(magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)and computed tomography(CT))owing to the high X-ray attenuation feature and magnetic property of Ho^(3+).Moreover,PDA shell endows AHF@PDA with excellent photothermal conversion performances and robust biocompatibility,leading to good treatment effect in vitro and in vivo.All above positive results certify that AHF@PDA have good potential as theranostic agents for clinical application in the future.

文摘Taking apart in numerous physiological and pathological activities,hydrogen sulfide(H_(2)S)has been selected as an excellent target spot for the early diagnosis of cancer.So far,there are many mature probes that apply single optical imaging to monitor endogenous H_(2)S.Nevertheless,a single modality is not an ideal method to afford accurate diagnostic information in comprehensive biological organisms.Herein,we developed a dual-modal imaging probe BWS.This designed probe showed a specific response to H_(2)S with both chemiluminescence and NIR fluorescence light-up.The concurrence of fluorescence and chemiluminescence signal provided“double insurances”for highly accurate monitoring of H_(2)S.Satisfactorily,this dual-modal imaging probe performed precise visualization of endogenous H_(2)S in living cells and in vivo.We envisaged that this chemiluminescence/fluorescence real-time dual-modality strategy for H_(2)S detection will expand and optimize the multimodal imaging methods for efficient diagnosis and treatment of cancer.

文摘Micro RNA-133a(mi RNA-133a) and cardiac troponin I(c Tn I) are different-type crucial biomarkers of acute myocardial infarction(AMI), whose levels are great significance for AMI diagnosis and treatment. Herein,a novel photoelectrochemical-electrochemical(PEC-EC) dual-mode biosensing platform for dual-target assays of mi RNA-133a and c Tn I was developed. In which, a PEC-EC dual-mode sensing platform for mi RNA-133a was constructed based on the changes of the photocurrent inhibition effect and the electrochemical signal of Fc on the Fc-hairpin DNA probe(Fc-HP)/Zn Cd S-quantum dots(QDs)/ITO electrode. Furthermore, under magnetic separation and the specific interaction between c Tn I and its aptamer, the N-doped porous carbon-Zn O polyhedra(NPC-Zn O)-hemin-capture DNA probe hybrid(NH-CP) was obtained and introduced to the Fc-HP/Zn Cd S-QDs/ITO electrode via hybridization between NH-CP and Fc-HP. The hemin molecules encapsulated in NH-CP could effectively induce the photocurrent-polarity-switching of the FcHP/Zn Cd S-QDs/ITO electrode and generate a new electrochemical signal originating from hemin. Thus,c Tn I was assayed sensitively and selectively by the PEC-EC dual-mode biosensing platform. Here, Fc and hemin not only serve as the electrochemical indicators, but also respectively inhibit the photocurrent and switch the photocurrent polarity of Zn Cd S-QDs. Furthermore, the proposed biosensing platform could be easily expanded to the detection of other multiplex-type biomarkers via the change of the sequences of the related DNA probes, implying its significant potential in clinical diagnosis and biological analysis.

文摘Photothermoelectric(PTE)photodetectors with selfpowered and uncooled advantages have attracted much interest due to the wide application prospects in the military and civilian fields.However,traditional PTE photodetectors lack of mechanical flexibility and cannot operate independently without the test instrument.Herein,we present a flexible PTE photodetector capable of dual-mode output,combining electrical and optical signal generation for enhanced functionality.Using solution processing,high-quality MXene thin films are assembled on asymmetric electrodes as the photosensitive layer.The geometrically asymmetric electrode design significantly enhances the responsivity,achieving 0.33 m A W^(-1)under infrared illumination,twice that of the symmetrical configuration.This improvement stems from optimized photothermal conversion and an expanded temperature gradient.The PTE device maintains stable performance after 300 bending cycles,demonstrating excellent flexibility.A new energy conversion pathway has been established by coupling the photothermal conversion of MXene with thermochromic composite materials,leading to a real-time visualization of invisible infrared radiation.Leveraging this functionality,we demonstrate the first human-machine collaborative infrared imaging system,wherein the dual-mode photodetector arrays synchronously generate human-readable pattern and machine-readable pattern.Our study not only provides a new solution for functional integration of flexible photodetectors,but also sets a new benchmark for human-machine collaborative optoelectronics.

文摘Transcatheter arterial embolization(TAE)is the mainstay for treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),and the performance of the embolization material is crucial in TAE.With the development of medical imaging and the birth of“X-ray-free”technologies,we designed a new dual-mode imaging material of dimethoxy tetraphenyl ethylene(DMTPE)via emulsification by mixing poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid)(PNA)with lipiodol and fluorocarbons,which was evaluated for temperature sensitivity,stability,and dual-mode visualization in vitro.Additionally,blood vessel casting embolization and renal artery imaging were assessed in healthy rabbits.In a rabbit model with a VX2 tumor,the effectiveness of TAE for treating HCC was examined,with an emphasis on evaluating long-term outcomes of embolization and its effects on tumor growth,necrosis,and proliferation through imaging techniques.In vitro experiments confirmed that the temperature-sensitive dual-oil-phase Pickering emulsion had good flow,stable contrast,and embolism when the oil-to-oil ratio and water-to-oil ratio were both 7:3(v/v)and stabilized with 8%PNA.Similarly,in vivo,arterial embolization confirmed the excellent properties of DMTPE prepared at the abovementioned ratios.It was observed that DMTPE not only has an antitumor effect but can also achieve dual imaging using X-rays and ultrasound,making it a promising excellent vascular embolization material for TAE in tumor treatment.

文摘This paper describes an experimental study investigating the effects of sinusoidal pulsed injection on the combustion mode transition in a dual-mode supersonic combustor.The results are obtained under inflow conditions of 2.9 MPa stagnation pressure,1900 K stagnation temperature,and Mach number of 3.0.It has been observed that,at the same equivalence ratio,the combustion mode and flow field structure undergo irreversible changes from a weak combustion state to a strong combustion state at a specific pulsed jet frequency compared to steady jet.For steady jet,the combustion mode is dual-mode.As the frequency of the unsteady jet changes,the combustion mode also changes:it becomes a transition mode at frequencies of 171 Hz and 260 Hz,and a ramjet mode at 216 Hz.Combustion instability under steady jet manifests as a transition in flame stabilization mode.In contrast,under pulsed jet,combustion instability appears either as a transition in flame stabilization mode or as flame blow-off and flashback.The flow field oscillation frequency in the non-reacting flow is 171 Hz,which may resonate with the 171 Hz pulsed jet frequency,making the combustion oscillations most pronounced at this frequency.When the jet frequency is increased to 216 Hz,the combustion intensity significantly increases,and the combustion mode transfers to the ramjet mode.However,further increasing the frequency to 260 Hz results in a decrease in combustion intensity,returning to the transition mode.The frequency of the flow field oscillations varies with the coupling of the pulsed injection frequency,shock wave,and flame,and if the system reaches an unstable state,that is,pre-combustion shock train moves far upstream of the isolator during the pulsed jet period,strong combustion state can be achieved,and this process is irreversible.

文摘The microstrip dual-mode filter (DMF) with conventional coupling structure has some limitations in- eluding the port coupling strength limited by fabrication tolerance and the existence of serious second order spuri- ous band. Therefore, a novel DMF with a offset-feed bended coupling structure and a stepped-impedance dual- mode resonator is proposed for coupling enhancement and spurious response suppression. Based on the analysis of the change of spur frequencies and the current distribution of spur resonant modes, all spurs near passband of the cascaded DMF can be fully suppressed by optimizing the structure parameters of parasite resonators, which bene- fits from the inherent well-controlled transmission zeros. Experimental results show that the proposed DMF ex- hibits lower insertion loss ,much sharper rate of cutoff and wider spur-free stop band compared with conventional DMF. This design is applicable for spur suppression in wideband communication.

文摘An all-digital hybrid current regulation scheme for the single-phase shunt active power filter (APF) is presented. The proposed hybrid current control scheme integrates the deadbeat control and the dual-mode structure repetitive control (DMRC) so that it can offer superior steady-state performance and good transient features. Unlike the conventional schemes, the proposed scheme-based APF can compensate both the odd and the even order harmonics in grid. The detailed design criteria and the stability analysis of the proposed hybrid current controller are presented. Moreover, an improved structure which incorporates the proposed hybrid controller and the resonant controller for tracking specific order harmonics is given. The relationships between the resonant controller and different repetitive control schemes are discussed. Experimental results verify the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed hybrid control scheme.
文摘An improved target tracking information differentiating system using the neural network to substitute for fuzzy rules is presented for the infrared-radar dual-mode guidance system. Since the neural network training based on the expert knowledge database is conducted off-line, the benefits for developing real-time tracking capabilities can be obtained. The network outputs the confidence degree denoted by the weight value of target information in the data fusion center according to two input variables of the measurement noise covariance and the tracking filter covariance. Simulation results show that the improved system can differentiate the target tracking information from the seeker fast and accurately.

文摘Near-infrared(NIR),particularly NIR-containing dual-/multimode afterglow,is very attractive in many fields of application,but it is still a great challenge to achieve such property of materials. Herein,we report a facile method to prepare green and NIR dual-mode afterglow of carbon dots(CDs) through in situ embedding o-CDs(being prepared from o-phenylenediamine) into cyanuric acid(CA) matrix(named o-CDs@CA). Further studies reveal that the green and NIR afterglows of o-CDs@CA originate from thermal activated delayed fluorescence(TADF) and room temperature phosphorescence(RTP) of o-CDs,respectively. In addition,the formation of covalent bonds between o-CDs and CA,and the presence of multiple fixation and rigid e ects to the triplet states of o-CDs are confirmed to be critical for activating the observed dual-mode afterglow. Due to the shorter lifetime and insensitiveness to human vision of the NIR RTP of o-CDs@CA,it is completely covered by the green TADF during directly observing. The NIR RTP signal,however,can be readily captured if an optical filter(cut-o wavelength of 600 nm) being used. By utilizing these unique features,the applications of o-CDs@CA in anti-counterfeiting and information encryption have been demonstrated with great confidentiality. Finally,the as-developed method was confirmed to be applicable to many other kinds of CDs for achieving or enhancing their afterglow performances.

文摘Under hydrothermal environment,we synthesized lanthanide ions doped sodium yttrium fluoride(NaYF4:Er,Tm@NaYF4:Ce,Tb) luminescent microcrystals via an epitaxial growth technique.The structure and morphology of these microcrystals were examined by SEM,TEM,EDS and XRD measurements.These particles show dual-mode emissions with red upconversion(UC) and green down conversion(DC) as single particles level.The mean length and diameter of these microparticles increase from 0.43 to2.26 μm and from 1.33 to 1.86 μm,respectively.Most interestingly,the photoluminescence properties of NaYF4:Er,Tm@NaYF4:Ce,Tb phosphor crystals are highly dependent on the crystallite size.The microcrystals fluoresce emit dual-mode emissions when they are solid or dispersed in solvents.Benefiting its intensive fluorescence and uniform morphology,these materials hold great potential for security and anti-counterfeiting applications.

文摘The paper presents a new dual-mode nonlinear model predictive control(NMPC) scheme for continuous-time nonlinear systems subject to constraints on the state and control.The idea of control Lyapunov functions for nonlinear systems is used to compute the terminal regions and terminal control laws with some free-parameters in the dual-mode NMPC framework.The parameters of the terminal controller are selected offline to estimate the terminal region as large as possible;and the parameters are optimized online to gain optimality of the terminal controller with respect to given cost functions.Then a dual-mode NMPC algorithm with varying time-horizon is formulated for the constrained system.Recursive feasibility and closed-loop stability of this NMPC are established.The example of a spring-cart is used to demonstrate the advantages of the presented scheme by comparing to the dual-mode NMPC via the linear quadratic regulator(LQR) method.
文摘Combustion mode transition is a valuable and challenging research area in dual-mode scramjet engines.The thermal behavior of an isolator with mode transition inducing backpressure is investigated by direct-connect dual-mode scramjet experiments and theoretical analysis.Combustion experiments are conducted under the incoming airflow conditions of total temperature1270 K and Mach 2.A small increment of the fuel equivalence ratio is scheduled to trigger mode transition.Correspondingly,the variation of the coolant flow rate is very small.Based on the measured wall pressures,the heat-transfer model can quantify the thermal state variation of the engine with active cooling.Compared with the combustor,mode transition has a greater effect on the isolator thermal behavior,and it significantly changes the isolator heat-flux and wall temperature.To further study the isolator thermal behavior from flight Mach 4 to Mach 7,a theoretical analysis is carried out.Around the critical point of combustion mode transition,sudden changes of the isolator flowfield and thermal state are discussed.
