文摘Six new lanthanide complexes:[Ln(3,4-DEOBA)3(4,4'-DM-2,2'-bipy)]2·2C_(2)H_(5)OH,[Ln=Dy(1),Eu(2),Tb(3),Sm(4),Ho(5),Gd(6);3,4-DEOBA-=3,4-diethoxybenzoate,4,4'-DM-2,2'-bipy=4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine]were successfully synthesized by the volatilization of the solution at room temperature.The crystal structures of six complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction technology.The results showed that the complexes all have a binuclear structure,and the structures contain free ethanol molecules.Moreover,the coordination number of the central metal of each structural unit is eight.Adjacent structural units interact with each other through hydrogen bonds and further expand to form 1D chain-like and 2D planar structures.After conducting a systematic study on the luminescence properties of complexes 1-4,their emission and excitation spectra were obtained.Experimental results indicated that the fluorescence lifetimes of complexes 2 and 3 were 0.807 and 0.845 ms,respectively.The emission spectral data of complexes 1-4 were imported into the CIE chromaticity coordinate system,and their corre sponding luminescent regions cover the yellow light,red light,green light,and orange-red light bands,respectively.Within the temperature range of 299.15-1300 K,the thermal decomposition processes of the six complexes were comprehensively analyzed by using TG-DSC/FTIR/MS technology.The hypothesis of the gradual loss of ligand groups during the decomposition process was verified by detecting the escaped gas,3D infrared spectroscopy,and ion fragment information detected by mass spectrometry.The specific decomposition path is as follows:firstly,free ethanol molecules and neutral ligands are removed,and finally,acidic ligands are released;the final product is the corresponding metal oxide.CCDC:2430420,1;2430422,2;2430419,3;2430424,4;2430421,5;2430423,6.
文摘Three zinc(Ⅱ),nickel(Ⅱ),and cadmium(Ⅱ)complexes,namely[Zn(μ-Htpta)(py)_(2)]n(1),[Ni(H_(2)biim)2(H_(2)O)2][Ni(tpta)(H_(2)biim)2(H_(2)O)]2·3H_(2)O(2),and[Cd_(3)(μ4-tpta)2(μ-dpe)_(3)]_(n)(3),have been constructed hydrothermally at 160℃ using H_(3)tpta([1,1':3',1″-terphenyl]-4,4',5'-tricarboxylic acid),py(pyridine),H_(2)biim(2,2'-biimidazole),dpe(1,2-di(4-pyridyl)ethylene),and zinc,nickel and cadmium chlorides,resulting in the formation of stable crystalline solids which were subsequently analyzed using infrared spectroscopy,element analysis,thermogravimetric analysis,as well as structural analyses conducted via single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The findings from these single-crystal Xray diffraction studies indicate that complexes 1-3 form crystals within the monoclinic system P2_(1)/c space group(1)or triclinic system P1 space group(2 and 3),and possess 1D,0D,and 3D structures,respectively.Complex 1 demonstrated substantial catalytic efficiency and excellent reusability as a heterogeneous catalyst in the reaction of Knoevenagel condensation under ambient temperature conditions.In addition,complex 1 also showcased notable anti-wear performance when used in polyalphaolefin synthetic lubricants.CCDC:2449810,1;2449811,2;2449812,3.
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Single-pixel imaging(SPI)receives widespread attention due to its superior anti-interference capabilities,and image segmentation technology can effectively facilitate its recognition and information extraction.However,the complexity of the target scene and plenty of imaging time in SPI make it challenging to achieve high-quality and concise segmentation.In this paper,we investigate the image-free intricate scene semantic segmentation in SPI.Using“learned”illumination patterns allows for the full extraction of the object's spatial information,thereby enabling pixel-level segmentation results through the decoding of the received measurements.Simulation and experimentation show that,in the absence of image reconstruction,the mean intersection over union(MIoU)of segmented image can reach higher than 85%,and the Dice coefficient(DICE)close to 90%even at the sampling ratio of 5%.Our approach may be favorable to applications in medical image segmentation and autonomous driving field.

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Optical two-way time-frequency transfer(O-TWTFT),utilizing optical frequency comb carriers and linear optical sampling,effectively enables space-to-ground optical frequency standard comparisons.Previously reported detection sensitivities of O-TWTFTs were typically in the nanoWatt level,necessitating high-power optical frequency combs to compensate for significant losses in high-orbit satellite-to-ground passes.Such hardware-based solutions,while effective,tend to be costly.This paper presents a novel data post-processing algorithm to enhance sensitivity.Unlike previous timing methods,which depend solely on optical phase data and discard intensity information—resulting in elevated errors,especially under low-reception power,our approach employs complex least squares(CLS)estimation in the complex frequency domain.By preserving all intermediate data and avoiding noise from phase unwrapping,it achieves superior sensitivity and accuracy.Experiments over a 113-kilometer free-space link validate the algorithm's robustness,delivering a detection sensitivity of0.1 nanoWatts—over tenfold better than prior techniques—despite a 100-decibel link loss,comparable to Earth-Moon optical links.
文摘This study investigated the impact of the xu-argument-based continuation on Chinese high school students’English syntactic complexity captured using verb-argument constructions(VACs)over an 8-week period.Participants were two comparable groups of students:one group worked with English input texts(i.e.,E-E),while the other worked with Chinese input texts with the same content(i.e.,C-E).The results showed that over time,the E-E group exhibited a greater tendency to use a wider range of VACs,such as caused-motion constructions,attributives,passives,and phrasal verbs.At the same time,they reduced their use of simpler VACs like intransitive-motion and simple transitive constructions,especially when compared to the C-E group.This pattern was also evident in the topic-based writing during the posttest.These findings strongly support the effectiveness of xu-argument-based continuation tasks in promoting the development of L2 VAC knowledge.They suggest that tasks combining language input with output can significantly enhance learners’ability to use more sophisticated VACs.
文摘Complex trimalleolar ankle fractures are a major orthopaedic challenge,with an incidence of 4.22 per 10000 person-years in the United States and an annual cost of 3.4 billion dollars.This review synthesizes current evidence on diagnostic protocols and management strategies,highlighting optimal approaches and emerging trends.Initial care emphasizes soft tissue assessment,often guided by the Tscherne classification,and fracture classification systems.External fixation may be required in open injuries,while early open reduction and internal fixation within six days is linked to improved outcomes.Minimally invasive techniques for the lateral malleolus,including intramedullary nailing and locking plates,are effective,while medial malleolus fractures are commonly managed with screw fixation or tension-band wiring.Posterior malleolus fragments involving more than 25%of the articular surface usually warrant fixation.Alternatives to syndesmotic screws,such as cortical buttons or high-strength sutures,reduce the need for secondary procedures.Arthroscopic-assisted open reduction and internal fixation benefits younger,active patients by enabling concurrent management of intra-articular and ligamentous injuries.Postoperative care prioritizes early weight-bearing and validated functional scores.Despite advances,complications remain common,and further research is needed to refine surgical strategies and improve outcomes.

文摘Text,as a fundamental carrier of human language and culture,exhibits high structural and semantic complexity.Its systematic analysis is essential for understanding linguistic patterns and cultural transmission.A Dream of Red Mansions and All Men Are Brothers,two masterpieces of Chinese classical literature,have long been central to debates regarding the authorship of their later chapters.Previous studies,often based on word-frequency statistics,function word distributions,entropy measures,and complex network analyses,have provided valuable insights into stylistic differences;however,they remain limited in capturing cross-scale structural features.To address this gap,we apply a multi-scale structural complexity approach based on character-frequency time series to analyze the structural evolution of both novels under various segmentation strategies.Our results reveal significant differences in peak complexity positions,overall complexity levels,and intra-textual variations between the two works,which are closely linked to changes in authorship and stylistic patterns.This study not only provides new quantitative evidence for resolving authorship disputes in classical literature but also demonstrates,from the perspective of structural complexity,the profound depth and unique charm of Chinese literary expression,highlighting the richness of Chinese language and culture.Moreover,it emphasizes the potential of structural complexity analysis as a versatile tool for textual analysis and style attribution.
文摘A series of blue and blue‑green Ir(Ⅲ)complexes has been investigated theoretically to explore their electronic structures,photophysical properties,efficiency roll‑off effect,and thermal activation delayed fluorescence(TADF)properties.All calculations were performed using density functional theory(DFT)and time‑dependent density functional theory(TDDFT).Calculations for electronic structures,frontier molecular orbital characteristics(which determine the efficiency roll‑off effect of the complexes),and photophysical properties were conducted using the Gaussian 09 software package.The calculation of spin‑orbit coupling matrix elements<T|HSOC|S>,which determine the TADF properties of the complexes,was performed using the ORCA software package.The calculation results show that the auxiliary ligand tetraphenylimidodiphosphinate(tpip),a strong electron‑withdrawing group,can mitigate the efficiency roll‑off effect of the complex.Furthermore,TADF is observed in one of the designed complexes,(F_(3)Phppy)_(2)Ir(tpip),where F_(3)Phppy=2‑[4‑(2,4,6‑trifluorophenyl)phenyl]pyridine.
文摘To expand the study on the structures and biological activities of the anthracyclines anticancer drugs and reduce their toxic side effects,the new anthraquinone derivatives,9‑pyridylanthrahydrazone(9‑PAH)and 9,10‑bispyridylanthrahydrazone(9,10‑PAH)were designed and synthesized.Utilizing 9‑PAH and 9,10‑PAH as promising anticancer ligands,their respective copper complexes,namely[Cu(L1)Cl_(2)]Cl(1)and{[Cu_(4)(μ_(2)‑Cl)_(3)Cl_(4)(9,10‑PAH)_(2)(DMSO)_(2)]Cl_(2)}_(n)(2),were subsequently synthesized,where the new ligand L1 is formed by coupling two 9‑PAH ligands in the coordination reaction.The chemical and crystal structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by IR,MS,elemental analysis,and single‑crystal X‑ray diffraction.Complex 1 forms a mononuclear structure.L1 coordinates with Cu through its three N atoms,together with two Cl atoms,to form a five‑coordinated square pyramidal geometry.Complex 2 constitutes a polymeric structure,wherein each structural unit centrosymmetrically encompasses two five‑coordinated binuclear copper complexes(Cu1,Cu2)of 9,10‑PAH,with similar square pyramidal geometry.A chlorine atom(Cl_(2)),located at the symmetry center,bridges Cu1 and Cu1A to connect the two binuclear copper structures.Meanwhile,the two five‑coordinated Cu2 atoms symmetrically bridge the adjacent structural units via one coordinated Cl atom,respectively,thus forming a 1D chain‑like polymeric structure.In vitro anticancer activity assessments revealed that 1 and 2 showed significant cytotoxicity even higher than cisplatin.Specifically,the IC_(50)values of 2 against HeLa‑229 and SK‑OV‑3 cancer cell lines were determined to be(5.92±0.32)μmol·L^(-1)and(6.48±0.39)μmol·L^(-1),respectively.2 could also block the proliferation of HeLa‑229 cells in S phase and significantly induce cell apoptosis.In addition,fluorescence quenching competition experiments suggested that 2 might interact with DNA by an intercalative binding mode,offering insights into its underlying anticancer mechanism.CCDC:2388918,1;2388919,2.

文摘High-resolution seeing through complex scattering media such as turbid water,biological tissues,and mist is a significant challenge because the strong scattering scrambles the light paths and forms the scattering wall.We propose an active polarized iterative optimization approach for high-resolution imaging through complex scattering media.By acquiring a series of sub-polarized images,we can capture the diverse pattern-illuminated images with various high-frequency component information caused by the Brownian motion of complex scattering materials,which are processed using the common-mode rejection of polarization characteristics to extract target information from scattering medium information.Following that,our computational reconstruction technique employs an iterative optimization algorithm that commences with patternilluminated Fourier ptychography for reconstructing the high-resolution scene.It is extremely important that our approach for high-resolution imaging through complex scattering media is not limited by priori information and optical memory effect.The proposed approach is suitable for not only dynamic but also static scattering media,which may find applications in the biomedicine field,such as skin abnormalities,non-invasive blood flow,and superficial tumors.

文摘Metal complexes hold significant promise in tumor diagnosis and treatment.However,their potential applications in photodynamic therapy(PDT)are hindered by issues such as poor photostability,low yield of reactive oxygen species(ROS),and aggregation-induced ROS quenching.To address these challenges,we present a molecular self-assembly strategy utilizing aggregation-induced emission(AIE)conjugates for metal complexes.As a proof of concept,we synthesized a mitochondrial-targeting cyclometalated Ir(Ⅲ)photosensitizer Ir-TPE.This approach significantly enhances the photodynamic effect while mitigating the dark toxicity associated with AIE groups.Ir-TPE readily self-assembles into nanoaggregates in aqueous solution,leading to a significant production of ROS upon light irradiation.Photoirradiated Ir-TPE triggers multiple modes of death by excessively accumulating ROS in the mitochondria,resulting in mitochondrial DNA damage.This damage can lead to ferroptosis and autophagy,two forms of cell death that are highly cytotoxic to cancer cells.The aggregation-enhanced photodynamic effect of Ir-TPE significantly enhances the production of ROS,leading to a more pronounced cytotoxic effect.In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate this aggregation-enhanced PDT approach achieves effective in situ tumor eradication.This study not only addresses the limitations of metal complexes in terms of low ROS production due to aggregation but also highlights the potential of this strategy for enhancing ROS production in PDT.

文摘A complex system is inherently high-dimensional.Recent studies indicate that,even without complete knowledge of its evolutionary dynamics,the future behavior of such a system can be predicted using time-series data(data-driven prediction).This suggests that the essential dynamics of a complex system can be captured through a low-dimensional representation.Virus evolution and climate change are two examples of complex,time-varying systems.In this article,we show that mutations in the spike protein provide valuable data for predicting SARS-CoV-2 variants,forecasting the possible emergence of the new macro-lineage Q in the near future.Our analysis also demonstrates that carbon dioxide concentration is a reliable indicator for predicting the evolution of the climate system,extending global surface air temperature(GSAT)forecasts through 2500.

文摘Image-maps,a hybrid design with satellite images as background and map symbols uploaded,aim to combine the advantages of maps’high interpretation efficiency and satellite images’realism.The usability of image-maps is influenced by the representations of background images and map symbols.Many researchers explored the optimizations for background images and symbolization techniques for symbols to reduce the complexity of image-maps and improve the usability.However,little literature was found for the optimum amount of symbol loading.This study focuses on the effects of background image complexity and map symbol load on the usability(i.e.,effectiveness and efficiency)of image-maps.Experiments were conducted by user studies via eye-tracking equipment and an online questionnaire survey.Experimental data sets included image-maps with ten levels of map symbol load in ten areas.Forty volunteers took part in the target searching experiments.It has been found that the usability,i.e.,average time viewed(efficiency)and average revisits(effectiveness)of targets recorded,is influenced by the complexity of background images,a peak exists for optimum symbol load for an image-map.The optimum levels for symbol load for different image-maps also have a peak when the complexity of the background image/image map increases.The complexity of background images serves as a guideline for optimum map symbol load in image-map design.This study enhanced user experience by optimizing visual clarity and managing cognitive load.Understanding how these factors interact can help create adaptive maps that maintain clarity and usability,guiding AI algorithms to adjust symbol density based on user context.This research establishes the practices for map design,making cartographic tools more innovative and more user-centric.

文摘The Jiuyishan granitic complex,located in the Nanling Range,South China,is composed of five granitic plutons(Xuehuading,Jinjiling,Pangxiemu,Shaziling and Xishan).Zircon U-Pb dating of four plutons(Jinjiling,Pangxiemu,Shaziling and Xishan)yielded similar ages of approximately 153 Ma,indicating indistinguishable ages within error.Three plutons except the Shaziling pluton,have consistentε_(Nd)(t)(-7.8 to-5.8)andε_(Hf)(t)(-9.1 to-2.2)values,which are similar to those of the lower crustal granulitic metasedimentary and meta-igneous rocks in South China.Compared to other three plutons,the Shaziling pluton has consistentε_(Nd)(t)(-7.4 to-6.8)andε_(Hf)(t)(-7.5 to-4.7)values and shows similar source,but the Shaziling mafic microgranular enclaves(MMEs)show variableε_(Hf)(t)(-14.2 to 4.8)values,indicating a remarkable mantle magma injection of the Shaziling pluton.Zircon Ce/Sm-Yb/Gd,whole-rock CaO-P_(2)O_(5)and CaO-TiO_(2)linear trends reveal that from the Xishan to the Shaziling and from the Jinjiling to the Pangxiemu granites,they experienced apatite and titanite fractionation,respectively.Zircon Th,U,Nb,Ta,Hf,Ti,Y,P and rare earth element(REE)contents and whole-rock Sr,Ba and Rb contents also show that the Shaziling,Xishan,Jinjiling and Pangxiemu granites followed a discontinuous evolutionary series,but the Pangxiemu granites exhibit highly evolved nature.Four main controlling factors of W-Sn and rare metal mineralization in granitic rocks were discussed,and we found that the mineralization in Jiuyishan granitic complex was mainly controlled by the fractionation degree and crystallization temperature,but were rarely affected by oxygen fugacity and mantle material input.The Pangxiemu granites show particularly higher Rb and Ta contents than the other three plutons,implying that the ore deposits developed in the Jiuyishan Complex were directly related to the most evolved Pangxiemu pluton,with the occurrence of Rb and Ta as the most likely rare metal mineralization in the Jiuyishan District.A crystal mush model is proposed to interpret the petrogenetic and mineralizing processes of the Jiuyishan granitic complex.

文摘This work investigates how temperature and microstructural evolution affect the formability of face-centered cubic(fcc)structured CoCrFeNiMn_(0.75)Cu_(0.25) high entropy alloy(HEA)sheets under complex stress conditions.Erichsen cupping tests were conducted to quantitatively evaluate the deformation capacity at room temperature(298 K)and cryogenic temperatures.The findings reveal a strong temperature dependence on the formability of the HEA.A decrease in the deformation temperature from 298 to 93 K causes a significant increase in both the Erichsen index(IE)(from 9.8 to 12.4 mm)and the expansion rate(δ)of surface area(from 51.6%to 76.3%),as well as a reduction in the average deviation(η)of thickness(from 55.1%to 44.4%),signifying its ultrahigh formability and uniform deformation capability at cryogenic temperature.This enhancement is attributed to the transition in the deformation mechanism from single dislocation slip at 298 K to a cooperative of plastic deformation mechanisms at 93 K,involving dislocation slip,stacking faults(SFs),Lomer-Cottrell(L-C)locks and multi-scale nanotwins.The lower stacking fault energy of the alloy facilitates these deformation mechanisms,particularly the formation of SFs and nanotwins,which enhance ductility and strength by providing additional pathways for plastic deformation.These mechanisms collectively contribute to delaying plastic instability,thereby improving the overall formability.This work provides a comprehensive understanding of the underlying reasons for the enhanced formability of HEAs at cryogenic temperatures,offering valuable insights for their practical use in challenging environments.
