In response, researchers have turned to continuous water splitting using forward osmosis(FO)-driven seawater desalination. However, the necessity of a neutral electrolyte hampers this strategy due to the limited current density and scarcity of precious metals. Herein, this study applies alkali-durable FO membranes to enable self-sustaining seawater splitting, which can selectively withdraw water molecules, from seawater, via concentration gradient. The membranes demonstrates outstanding perm-selectivity of water/ions(~5830 mol mol^(-1)) during month-long alkaline resistance tests, preventing electrolyte leaching(>97% OHàretention) while maintaining ~95%water balance(V_(FO)= V_(electrolysis)) via preserved concentration gradient for consistent forward-osmosis influx of water molecules. With the consistent electrolyte environment protected by the polyamide FO membranes, the Ni Fe-Ar-P catalyst exhibits promising performance: a sustain current density of 360 m A cmà2maintained at the cell voltage of 2.10 V and 2.15 V for 360 h in the offshore seawater, preventing Cl/Br corrosion(98% rejection) and Mg/Ca passivation(99.6% rejection). This research marks a significant advancement towards efficient and durable seawater-based hydrogen production.展开更多

The evolution of the modern Indus River Delta offers a rare opportunity to study the interplay between sea level fluctuations, tectonism, sediment supply, and the corresponding fluvial responses. This study employs the ‘SedSim' stratigraphic forward model to simulate the delta's evolution from 200 kyr to the next5 kyr, drawing on data from field observations, Landsat imagery, digital elevation models, and previous studies. The model consists of 205 layers, each representing a 1-kyr time step, covering the last two glacial-interglacial cycles. Between 200 kyr and 130 kyr, during a lowstand period, sedimentation on the delta plain continued due to partial flow from the Indus River. During the last interglacial(130–60 kyr), rising sea levels led to peak sediment deposition, characteristic of a highstand phase. From 60 kyr to 18 kyr, sea levels dropped to their lowest during the Last Glacial Maximum(LGM), resulting in extensive erosion and minimal deposition on the delta plain. From 18 kyr to the present, rapidly rising sea levels, coupled with intensified monsoon activity, increased sedimentation rates and triggered avulsion and aggradation processes. The model accurately predicted depositional thickness across the delta plain, indicating a maximum of ca. 200 m at the shoreline platform, ca. 175 m in the northeastern delta, and ca. 100 m in the central delta. The study underscores the delta's vulnerability to future sea level rise, which–at a projected rate of 1 m/kyr–could significantly influence the densely populated, low-lying delta plain. These findings offer valuable insights into the geomorphic evolution of the Indus Delta and emphasize the socioeconomic implications of sea level change, underscoring the importance of proactive management and adaptation strategies.展开更多

文摘Four-level pulse amplitude modulation(PAM4)signals,recognized for enhanced energy efficiency and spectral utilization compared with non-return-to-zero(NRZ)counterparts,have been adopted in multiple high-speed serializer/deserializer(SerDes)standards,but NRZ modulation remains predominant in industrial applications.This paper introduces a UMC 28 nm CMOS-based parallel configurable forward feedback equalization(FFE)dual-mode high-speed SerDes transmitter supporting 7-bit resolution with data rates of 56 Gb∙s^(-1)NRZ and 112 Gb∙s^(-1)PAM4,utilizing a hybrid architecture that integrates digital signal processing(DSP)with digital-to-analog conversion(DAC).The design processes parallel input signals and eight stored 8-bit tap coefficients through a configurable FFE multiplier module and parallel carry adder module,while achieving low-power serialization via low-speed 16∶4 multiplexers(MUXs)with two different 2∶1 MUXs and high-speed 4∶1 MUXs.A source series termination(SST)output network structure enhances lower power dissipation and higher output swing.Simulation results show that,under a 1.05 V supply voltage and a channel loss of 19.21 dB at 28 GHz,the output 56 Gb∙s^(-1)NRZ eye diagram has an eye height of 70.11 mV and an eye width of 12.16 ps(0.68 UI).The output 112 Gb∙s^(-1)PAM4 eye diagram has an eye height of 20.07 mV and an eye width of 7.49 ps(0.42 UI).The layout area of the dual-mode transmitter is 0.079 mm^(2),and the total circuit power consumption is 74.48 mW(energy efficiency is 1.33/0.67 pJ∙bit-1).
