However, current systems ...Multiple donor-acceptor(D-A) combinations represent a promising category of thermally activated delayed fiuorescence(TADF) materials, offering potential for superior efficiency and stability. However, current systems are predominantly composed of limited donor groups, primarily carbazole-based derivatives. In this work, we developed a series of D-A type materials incorporating helical π-expanded carbazole(Cz Naph) and 7H-dinaphtho[1,8-bc:1,8-ef]azepine(Az Naph), alongside traditional carbazole, ranging from mono-to tetra-substituted configurations(D_(n)-A). Through systematic investigation of geometric and electronic structures, the number and positioning of multiple donors are confirmed with significant manipulations on charge transfer characteristics and the S_(1) state via steric effects. Density functional theory(DFT) calculations reveal that varying the number of π-extended donors within the acceptor framework produces emission colors from ultraviolet to red, providing a diverse range of emitters. Furthermore, the reduced reorganization energy of S1observed in tetra-substituted Cz and Cz Naph, as well as Mono Az N, indicates lower structural relaxation, highlighting these materials' potential as stable luminescent candidates. This study underscores the importance of diverse composing units in achieving efficient and stable TADF emitters with multiple and hetero-donor configurations.展开更多

文摘Multiple donor-acceptor(D-A) combinations represent a promising category of thermally activated delayed fiuorescence(TADF) materials, offering potential for superior efficiency and stability. However, current systems are predominantly composed of limited donor groups, primarily carbazole-based derivatives. In this work, we developed a series of D-A type materials incorporating helical π-expanded carbazole(Cz Naph) and 7H-dinaphtho[1,8-bc:1,8-ef]azepine(Az Naph), alongside traditional carbazole, ranging from mono-to tetra-substituted configurations(D_(n)-A). Through systematic investigation of geometric and electronic structures, the number and positioning of multiple donors are confirmed with significant manipulations on charge transfer characteristics and the S_(1) state via steric effects. Density functional theory(DFT) calculations reveal that varying the number of π-extended donors within the acceptor framework produces emission colors from ultraviolet to red, providing a diverse range of emitters. Furthermore, the reduced reorganization energy of S1observed in tetra-substituted Cz and Cz Naph, as well as Mono Az N, indicates lower structural relaxation, highlighting these materials' potential as stable luminescent candidates. This study underscores the importance of diverse composing units in achieving efficient and stable TADF emitters with multiple and hetero-donor configurations.

文摘Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides(2D TMDCs)have received considerable attention in local strain engineering due to their extraordinary mechanical flexibility,electonic structure,and optical properties.The strain-induced out-of-plane deformations in 2D TMDCs lead to diverse excitonic behaviors and versatile modulations in optical properties,paving the way for the development of advanced quantum technologies,flexible optoelectronic materials,and straintronic devices.Research on local strain engineering on 2D TMDCs has been delved into fabrication techniques,electronic state variations,and quantum optical applications.This review begins by summarizing the state-of-the-art methods for introducing local strain into 2D TMDCs,followed by an exploration of the impact of local strain engineering on optical properties.The intriguing phenomena resulting from local strain,such as exciton funnelling and anti-funnelling,are also discussed.We then shift the focus to the application of locally strained 2D TMDCs as quantum emitters,with various strategies outlined for modulating the properties of TMDC-based quantum emitters.Finally,we discuss the remaining questions in this field and provide an outlook on the future of local strain engineering on 2D TMDCs.

文摘Radiopharmaceuticals deliver diagnostic or therapeutic radionuclides to disease sites with molecular precision.Over the past five years,clinical adoption has accelerated,led by U.S.Food and Drug Administration approvals of 177Lu-DOTA-TATE and 177Lu-PSMA-617 and their complementary Positron Emission Tomography agents(68Ga-DOTA-TATE,68Ga-PSMA-11),which have established radiotheranostics as a pillar of oncology care.The new generation of agents couples optimized radionuclides(β-,α,and Auger emitters)to antibodies,peptides,and small-molecule vectors that improve tumor uptake,residence time,and clearance profiles,thereby enhancing efficacy and safety.Beyond neuroendocrine tumors and prostate cancer,radiotheranostic strategies are advancing for diverse malignancies by exploiting tumor-specific antigens,overexpressed receptors,and intracellular targets.Notably,α-emitters such as 225Ac and 211At—owing to high linear energy transfer and short path length—show potent cytotoxicity with limited off-target injury,while emergingβ/Auger emitters like 161Tb may surpass 177Lu in microdosimetric effectiveness.Concurrent innovations in patient selection and response prediction leverage diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals for image-guided stratification,individualized dosimetry,and adaptive treatment planning,supporting the broader paradigm of precision medicine.Although oncology remains the primary focus,applications are expanding to neurodegeneration,cardiovascular disease,and inflammatory conditions.This review synthesizes technological and clinical progress from 2021-2025,spanning FDA-approved and late-stage investigational agents;mechanisms of radiopharmaceutical-induced cell death;dosimetry methodologies;trial landscapes for expanding indications;and translational challenges,including supply chains,chelation chemistry,and toxicity management.Accordingly,this review focuses on the latest radiopharmaceutical diagnostic and therapeutic technologies,integrating advances in radionuclide platforms,targeting vectors,dosimetry,and clinical trial data from 2021-2025 to guide future development and clinical implementation of precision radiotheranostics.

文摘Hybrid local and charge-transfer(HLCT)states offer an effective pathway for developing efficient blue organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs).In HLCT emitters,locally excited(LE)states enhance radiative transitions and photoluminescence quantum yield,while charge-transfer(CT)states facilitate exciton harvesting via reverse intersystem crossing.Here,we propose an HLCT-oriented molecular design strategy to achieve efficient blue emission.Pyrene-imidazole(PyI)was employed as a weak donor and linked to benzoxazole(BO)acceptors through para-and meta-benzene π-bridges,affording two D-π-A molecules,p-PyI-PBO and m-PyI-PBO.The π-bridges strengthen conjugation and stabilize the HLCT state,while the para-to-meta linkage transforms a linear"I-shaped"geometry into a twisted"V-shaped"configuration,shortening conjugation and modulating donoracceptor coupling.This structural regulation produces a more balanced LE/CT distribution,suppressing excessive LE character while retaining sufficient CT contribution for efficient exciton utilization.As a result,m-PyI-PBO exhibits more favorable excited-state properties and delivers efficient blue emission with high color purity.Benefiting from its balanced HLCT characteristics and robust photophysical and thermal stability,the nondoped OLED based on m-PyI-PBO shows bright blue emission with CIE coordinates of(0.15,0.13),a maximum external quantum efficiency(EQE_(max))of 9.52%,and a low roll-off of 3.36%at 1000 cd^(-2).The doped device further emits deep blue with CIE coordinates of(0.16,0.06),close to the European Broadcasting Union standard,and achieves an EQE_(max)of 13.22%with an exciton utilization efficiency of 79.72%.This work demonstrates thatπ-bridge engineering combined with meta-linkage is an effective strategy for constructing efficient HLCT-type blue emitters.

文摘Electron beam injectors are pivotal components of large-scale scientific instruments,such as synchrotron radiation sources,free-electron lasers,and electron-positron colliders.The quality of the electron beam produced by the injector critically influences the performance of the entire accelerator-based scientific research apparatus.The injectors of such facilities usually use photocathode and thermionic-cathode electron guns.Although the photocathode injector can produce electron beams of excellent quality,its associated laser system is massive and intricate.The thermionic-cathode electron gun,especially the gridded electron gun injector,has a simple structure capable of generating numerous electron beams.However,its emittance is typically high.In this study,methods to reduce beam emittance are explored through a comprehensive analysis of various grid structures and preliminary design results,examining the evolution of beam phase space at different grid positions.An optimization method for reducing the emittance of a gridded thermionic-cathode electron gun is proposed through theoretical derivation,electromagnetic-field simulation,and beam-dynamics simulation.A 50%reduction in emittance was achieved for a 50 keV,1.7 A electron gun,laying the foundation for the subsequent design of a high-current,low-emittance injector.

文摘The Southern Advanced Photon Source(SAPS)is a diffraction-limited synchrotron light source under design,which employs longitudinal injection as its primary injection scheme.This kind of injection scheme requires that the injected beam has a short bunch length and low emittance,and the preferred injector should offer high stability and low cost.Therefore,an injector based on a booster synchrotron was developed.The proposed injector includes a 250 MeV linac,a booster synchrotron that ramps the beam energy to 3.5 GeV,and two beam transport lines to ensure efficient beam delivery and beam quality preservation.The linac utilizes a thermionic high-voltage DC gun for reliable operation and features a bunching system with an advanced focusing system to preserve the emittance.To meet the injection requirements of the SAPS,a comprehensive design for the booster has been conducted.The booster synchrotron employs a threefold lattice structure,incorporating modified theoretical minimum emittance cells with a small momentum compaction factor and a high voltage to achieve an emittance of 3.98 nm rad and a bunch length of 4.8 mm.The injector has the potential to deliver a high charge,reducing the injection period of the storage ring to less than 1 min.Simulations demonstrated the expected performance,with a transmission efficiency of 90%,confirming its capability to meet the injection requirement of the SAPS storage ring.This design offers a stable and efficient solution for the SAPS.

文摘To enhance the heat-dissipation capacity of infrared(IR)stealth structures in high-temperature environments,a selective heat emitter with multi-band thermal management is fabricated.This emitter comprises a hightemperature-resistant titanium dioxide(TiO_(2))/hafnium dioxide(HfO_(2))/Cr/Ge/Mo multi-film-layer structure.Additionally,the thickness of each layer is determined by the transfer-matrix algorithm.The emissivity of the structure across the IR band is simulated,and its electric field distributions are analyzed across different wavelengths.The stealth-and heat-dissipation bands of the structure are calculated to confirm its overall stealth and heat-dissipation capabilities.The results reveal that the average emissivities of the fabricated TiO_(2)/HfO_(2)/Cr/Ge/Mo multi-film-layer structure decrease to 0.21 and 0.27 within 3-5 and 8-14μm atmospheric window bands,respectively,achieving the IR concealment effect.Conversely,the average emissivities of the structure increase to 0.56 and 0.80 within the 2.5-3 and 5-8μm non-atmospheric window(NAW)bands,respectively.These high-emissivity bands enhance radiative heat dissipation to reduce heat accumulation and further weaken the detection and characterization of thermal signals.The simulated thermal images confirm the IR-stealth effect of the structure within a wide temperature range.Moreover,its efficient NAW heat-dissipation capability improves its operating life in high-temperature environments.
文摘Ultrasound neuromodulation offers a non-invasive approach to modulate neural activity in the central nervous system.Precise,minimally invasive devices capable of targeted stimulation remain limited.A 200μm diameter fiber-optic photoacoustic emitter(FPE)was developed,coated with a MXene(Ti3C2Tx)and polydimethylsiloxane composite to generate controllable,broadband ultrasonic waves with high spatial precision.Using this FPE to stimulate the medial prefrontal cortex in mice,it was observed marked alleviation of acute social defeat stress-induced emotional stress,evidenced by reduced anxiety-like behavior and increased social interaction.This approach enables near-field,broadband,and tunable ultrasound neuromodulation with potential applications in treating neuropsychiatric disorders involving emotional regulation.

文摘In wireless sensor networks,ensuring communication security via specific emitter identification(SEI)is crucial.However,existing SEI methods are limited to closed-set scenarios and lack the ability to detect unknown devices and perform classincremental training.This study proposes a class-incremental open-set SEI approach.The open-set SEI model calculates radiofrequency fingerprints(RFFs)prototypes for known signals and employs a self-attention mechanism to enhance their discriminability.Detection thresholds are set through Gaussian fitting for each class.For class-incremental learning,the algorithm freezes the parameters of the previously trained model to initialize the new model.It designs specific losses:the RFFs extraction distribution difference loss and the prototype transformation distribution difference loss,which force the new model to retain old knowledge while learning new knowledge.The training loss enables learning of new class RFFs.Experimental results demonstrate that the open-set SEI model achieves state-of-theart performance and strong noise robustness.Moreover,the class-incremental learning algorithm effectively enables the model to retain old device RFFs knowledge,acquire new device RFFs knowledge,and detect unknown devices simultaneously.
文摘Artificial Intelligence(AI)-native sixth-generation(6G)wireless networks require data-efficient and channel-resilient physical-layer modeling techniques that learn stable device-specific representations under channel variations and hardware imperfections to support secure and reliable device-level authentication under highly dynamic environments.In such networks,massive device heterogeneity and time-varying channel conditions pose significant challenges,as reliable authentication must be achieved with limited labeled data and constrained edge resources.To address this challenge,this paper proposes an Artificial Intelligence(AI)-assisted few-shot physical-layer modeling framework for channel robust device identification,formulated within the paradigm of Specific Emitter Identification(SEI)based on radio frequency(RF)fingerprinting.The proposed framework explicitly formulates few-shot SEI as a channel-resilient physical-layer modeling problem by integrating a lightweight convolutional neural network and Transformer hybrid encoder with a dual-branch feature decoupling mechanism.Device specific RF fingerprints are separated from channel-dependent factors through orthogonality-constrained learning,which effectively suppresses channel-induced prototype drift and stabilizes metric geometry under channel variations.A meta-learned prototypical inference module is further employed under episodic few-shot training,enabling rapid adaptation to new devices and unseen channel conditions using only a small number of labeled samples.Experimental results on multiple realworld RF datasets,including ORACLE Wi-Fi transmitter measurements and civil aviation ADS-B broadcasts(DWi-Fi,DADS-B,and DDF17 ADS-B),demonstrate that the proposed method achieves identification accuracy ranging from 99.1%to 99.8%using only 10 labeled samples per device,while maintaining episode-level performance variance below 0.02.In addition,the proposed model contains approximately 1.45×10^(5) trainable parameters,making it suitable for deployment on resource-constrained edge devices.These results indicate that the proposed framework provides a concrete and scalable AI-driven solution for physical-layer security and device-level authentication in AI-native 6G wireless networks.

文摘Preserving beam quality during the transport of high-brightness electron bunches is crucial for advanced accelerator applications,such as particle colliders,free-electron lasers,and recirculating linacs.However,coherent synchrotron radiation(CSR)significantly degrades beam quality when electron bunches pass through multi-bend isochronous beamlines,particularly for short bunches with non-ideal longitudinal profiles.Although several methods have been proposed to mitigate CSR effects,most rely on small-angle approximations or are limited to idealized bunch profiles.In this study,we present two improved methods for designing isochronous triple-bend achromat(TBA)beamlines that effectively mitigate CSR-induced emittance growth and longitudinal profile distortion without relying on small-angle approximations.The first method,an enhanced integral optimization approach,simplifies numerical optimization and can accurately handle larger deflection angles,making it suitable for practical applications that require flexible lattice configurations.The second method,an optimized I-matrix approach,completely cancels steady-state and transient CSR kicks through specific matrix constraints and higher-order dispersion optimization,enabling effective CSR suppression even with very large deflection angles.Systematic simulations demonstrate that both methods achieve excellent preservation of transverse emittance and longitudinal profiles.

文摘In this study,three specific scenarios of a novel accelerator light source mechanism called steady-state microbunching(SSMB)were studied:longitudinal weak focusing,longitudinal strong focusing,and generalized longitudinal strong focusing(GLSF).At present,GLSF is the most promising method for realizing high-power short-wavelength coherent radiation with mild requirements on modulation laser power.Its essence is to exploit the ultrasmall natural vertical emittance of an electron beam in a planar storage ring for efficient microbunching formation,like a partial transverse-longitudinal emittance exchange in the optical laser wavelength range.Based on an in-depth investigation of related beam physics,a solution for a GLSF SSMB storage ring that can deliver 1 kW average-power EUV light is presented.The work in this paper,such as the generalized Courant–Snyder formalism,analysis of theoretical minimum emittances,transverse-longitudinal coupling dynamics,and derivation of the bunching factor and modulation strengths for laser-induced microbunching schemes,is expected to be useful not only for the development of SSMB but also for future accelerator light sources in general that demand increasingly precise electron beam phase space manipulations.

文摘As a novel class of purely organic fluores-cent materials,multiple resonance thermal-ly activated delayed fluorescence(MR-TADF)compounds hold significant promise for next-generation display technologies.The efficiency of exciton utilization and the overall performance of organic light-emit-ting devices are closely linked to the singlet-triplet energy gap(ΔE_(ST))of MR-TADF emitters.Identifying an economic and accu-rate theoretical approach to predictΔE_(ST)would be beneficial for high-throughput screening and facilitate the inverse design of MR-TADF molecules.In this study,we evaluated the S_(1)state energy(E(S_(1))),T_(1)state ener-gy(E(T_(1))),andΔE_(ST)using three different physical interpretations:adiabatic excitation ener-gy,vertical absorption energy,and vertical emission energy.We employed the time-depen-dent density functional theory(TDDFT)and delta self-consistent field(ΔSCF)methods to calculate E(S_(1)),E(T_(1)),andΔE_(ST)for 20 MR-TADF molecules reported in the literature.We compared these calculated values with experimental data obtained from fluorescence spec-troscopy at room-temperature(or 77 K)and phosphorescence spectroscopy conducted at 77 K.Our findings indicate that the vertical absorption energy at the S0 state minimum,deter-mined by theΔSCF method,accurately predicts the S_(1)state energy.Similarly,the vertical absorption energy at the S0 state minimum,calculated using the TDDFT method,effectively predicts the T_(1)state energy.TheΔE_(ST)derived from the difference between these two excita-tion energies exhibited the smallest mean absolute error of only 0.039 eV compared to the ex-perimental values.This combination represents the most accurate and cost-effective method reported to date for predicting theΔE_(ST)of MR-TADF molecules,and can be integrated into AI-driven inverse design workflows for new emitters.

文摘Despite the superior advantages of specific emitter identification in extracting emitter features from in-phase and quadrature(I/Q)signals,challenges persist due to signal-type confusion and background noise interference.To address those limitations,this paper proposes a multi-channel contrast prediction coding and complex-valued residuals network(MCPC-MCVResNet)framework.This model employs contrast prediction techniques to directly extract discriminative features from electromagnetic signal sequences,effectively capturing both amplitude and phase information within I/Q data.A core innovation of this approach is the sphere space softmax(SS-softmax)loss,which optimizes intra-class clustering density of while establishing well-defined boundaries between distinct emitters.The SS-softmax mechanism significantly enhances the model's capacity to discern subtle variations among radiation emitters.Experimental results demonstrate superior identification accuracy,rapid convergence,and exceptional robustness in low signal-to-noise ratio environments.

文摘Six-year old apple trees were selected for field experiment.The objective of this study was to obtain the reasonable arrangement of surge-root irrigation emitters in apple orchards.There were three factors:the buried depth H(25,40,55 cm),the horizontal distance L(30,40,60 cm)between the emitters and the trunk of the experimental tree,and the number of the irrigation emitters N(1,2,4).The effect of the arrangement of surge-root irrigation emitters on the growth,yield and irrigation water use efficiency(IWUE)of apple trees were studied in Northern Shaanxi where the irrigation quota takes 60%-75%of the field water capacity.The results showed that the arrangement of emitters for surge-root irrigation had a significant effect on apple tree yield and IWUE,especially,the yield and IWUE reached 28388.17 kg/hm2 and 16.83 kg/m3 in treatment T3,respectively.At the same L and N levels(T1,T2,and T3),the yield and IWUE in treatment T3 were the highest,and the yields in treatments T1 and T2 were decreased by 26.22%and 31.48%,while IWUE is reduced by14.02%and 18.12%compared with T3,respectively.At the same H and N levels(T3,T4,and T5),the yield and IWUE of apple trees were decreased with increasing L level.Especially,when L was 30 cm(T3),the yield and IWUE were the highest.The same L and H levels(T3,T6,and T7)could promote the growth of apple trees when N was 2(T3).Compared with treatment T3,it was found that the increment of new shoots was decreased by 8.07%-18.71%,and the fruit diameter was decreased by 5.41%-9.11%.Therefore,two emitters should be arranged symmetrically on both sides of an apple tree,each was buried at a 40 cm depth and 30 cm away from the trunk of the tree to effectively improve the yield and IWUE of the apple tree in mountainous areas in Northern Shaanxi.

文摘Using reclaimed wastewater for crop irrigation is a practical alternative to discharge wastewater treatment plant effluents into surface waters.However,biofouling has been identified as a major contributor to emitter clogging in drip irrigation systems distributing reclaimed wastewater.Little is known about the biofilm structure and its influence on clogging in the drip emitter flow path.This study was first to investigate the microbial characteristics of mature biofilms present in the emitters and the effect of flow path structures on the biofilm microbial communities.The analysis of biofilm matrix structure using a scanning electron microscopy(SEM) revealed that particles in the matrix of the biofilm coupled extracellular polysaccharides(EPS) and formed sediment in the emitter flow path.Analysis of biofilm mass including protein,polysaccharide,and phospholipid fatty acids(PLFAs) showed that emitter flow path style influenced biofilm community structure and diversity.The correlations of biofilm biomass and discharge reduction after 360 h irrigation were computed and suggest that PFLAs provide the best correlation coeffcient.Comparatively,the emitter with the unsymmetrical dentate structure and shorter flow path(Emitter C) had the best anti-clogging capability.By optimizing the dentate structure,the internal flow pattern within the flow path could be enhanced as an important method to control the biofilm within emitter flow path.This study established electron microscope techniques and biochemical microbial analysis methods that may provide a framework for future emitter biofilm studies.

文摘Nowadays,the development of trip let-involved materials becomes a hot research topic in solid-state luminescence fields.However,the mechanism of trip let-involved emission still remains some mysteries to conquer.Here,we proposed a new concept of excited-state confo rmation capture for the const ructio ns of different types of trip let-involved materials.Firstly,excited-state conformation could be trapped by supramolecular chains in crystal and fo rm a new optimum excited-state structure which is different from that in solution or simple rigid environment,leading to bright thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF) emission.Based on excited-state conformation capture methodology,next,we obtained roomtemperature phosphorescence(RTP) by introducing Br atoms for the enhancement of intersystem crossing.It could be concluded from experime ntal results that TADF may originate from aggregate effect while RTP may derive from monomers.Finally,heavy-atom free RTP and ultra RTP were achieved by eliminating aggregate effect.This wo rk could not only exte nd the design methodology of triplet-involved materials but also set clear evidences for the mechanism of triplet-involved emissions.

Quantum dots made from Ⅲ-Ⅴ compounds such as InGaAs or GaN have been found to be particularly attractive SPE sources due to their well studied optical performance and state of the art industrial flexibility in fabrication and integration. Here, we review the optical and optoelectronic properties and growth methods of general SPEs. Subsequently, a brief summary of the latest advantages in Ⅲ-Ⅴ compound SPEs and the research progress achieved in the past few years will be discussed. We finally describe frontier challenges and conclude with the latest SPE fabrication science and technology that can open new possibilities for quantum information applications.
