文摘In complex media scattering,multiple scattering severely degrades the optical wavefront and results in blurred images,while the spectral distortion caused by the scattering effect leads to severe color distortion.Achieving color high-resolution imaging through scattering media remains a significant challenge.Here,we propose a broadband,polarization-based method for color high-resolution imaging through scattering media.This approach enables high-resolution reconstruction by effectively separating the speckle illumination pattern from the mixed-scattering field information,leveraging polarization common-mode characteristics.Concurrently,it incorporates chromatic balance compensation to correct spectral aliasing in the scattered light field,enabling color high-resolution imaging through complex scattering media.To further optimize color distortion caused by scattering,a compensation strategy combining color constancy and white balance theory is adopted.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method significantly enhances both spatial resolution and color fidelity across various scattering conditions and target materials,showcasing strong adaptability and robustness.This approach provides an effective solution for achieving high-resolution color optical imaging in complex scattering environments.

文摘Drying operations are of grave importance to realize the reduction and utilization of sewage sludge resources,but the conventional thermal evaporation drying(TED)technology presents challenges due to the need for a large amount of thermal energy to conquer the phase-change latent heat of moisture.Herein,we report a non-phase change technology based on particle high-speed self-rotation in a cyclone for fast,low-temperature drying of viscous sludge with high-moisture contents.Dispersed phase medium(DPM)is introduced into the cyclone self-rotation drying(CSRD)reactor to enhance the dispersion of the viscous sludge.The effects of carrier gas temperature,feeding rate,size,and proportion of DPM particles in the drying process are systematically examined.Under optimal operating conditions,the weighted content of moisture in the viscous sludge could be reduced from 80%to 15.01%in less than 5 s,achieving a high drying efficiency of 95.79%.Theoretical calculations also reveal that 89.26%of the moisture is removed through non-phase change pathway,contributing to a 522-fold increase in the drying rate of CSRD compared to TED technology.This investigation presents a sustainable effective approach for high moisture viscous sludge treatment with low energy consumption and carbon emissions.

文摘Steel–flux reactions involving the high aluminum(0.75–3.85 wt.%Al)low manganese(2.2 wt.%Mn)steel and the 18 wt.%SiO_(2)–18 wt.%Al2O3 mold flux were investigated.The results indicated that the reaction rate increased when the initial aluminum content increased from 0.76 to 3.85 wt.%.Utilizing the two-film theory,a steel–flux reaction kinetic model controlled by mass transfer was established,which considered the influence of the initial composition on the density of liquid steel and flux.The mass transfer of aluminum in the steel phase was the reaction rate-determining step.It was confirmed that the mass transfer coefficient of Al was 1.87×10^(−4).The predicted results of the kinetic model were consistent and reliable with the experimental results.Thermodynamic equilibrium calculation was performed using FactSage 8.2,which was compared with the steel and flux final composition after 30 min.The content of initial aluminum in the liquid steel played a critical role in the SiO_(2)equilibrium content of the mold flux.In addition,the steel–flux reaction between[Al]and(SiO_(2))occurred with the initial SiO_(2)content in the mold flux lower than 3 wt.%.

文摘The service life of refractory brick in the slag tapping hole of gasifiers is a significant concern for long-term and stable operation.This study examined the damage mechanism of high chromia refractory of four commercial coal-water slurry gasifiers with their corresponding gasification coal samples and the corroded refractory bricks in the slag tapping hole of the gasifier.The slag characteristic,including crystallization and viscosity-temperature of four gasification coal samples were analyzed.The results revealed that the low viscosity slag could lead to more severe damage to refractory bricks.Given the risk of slag crystallization,it is recommended to establish a safe slag tapping temperature range should be set as tICT(initial crystallization temperature)−t_(2.5) when tICT is higher than t_(25).Upon examining interior morphology of these corroded refractory bricks,some cracks were observed within them.The chemical composition of molten slag was analyzed using SEM-EDS.However,XRD results found no spinel containing zirconium in these cracks.This suggests that the emergence of these cracks are mainly attributed to the molten slag penetration and the subsequent reaction with the refractory material.The difference in thermal expansion between the newly formed substances and refractory material is critical in forming these cracks.Furthermore,SEM-EDS analysis was also conducted on the slag-aggregate and the slag-matrix interface.The results reveal that the reduction in Cr_(2)O_(3) content is the earliest characteristic of damage in high chromia refractories.A proposed damage mechanism of refractory brick suggests that the matrix and aggregate of high chromia refractory are initially compromised because of the reduced Cr_(2)O_(3) content.Subsequently,the molten slag penetrates the interior of the refractory brick,forming new substances,leading to damage caused by the difference in thermal expansion between the new substances and the refractory brick.Understanding and preventing the reduction of Cr_(2)O_(3) content is vital to prolonging the service life of refractory brick in the slag tapping hole of the gasifier based on this damage mechanism.

文摘This study explored the impact of sintering time and temperature on the synthesis and formation of high-entropy rare earth oxides(HEOs).By systematically varying the sintering conditions,a series of Lu_(2)Yb_(2)Tm_(2)Er_(2)O_(12) samples was synthesized and their structural and chemical properties were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy(SEM)with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS)elemental mapping,X-ray diffraction(XRD),high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM),and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS).According to XRD patterns,a single-phase cubic C-type structure is easier to form at higher sintering temperatures(1400-1500℃),with sharper peaks signifying better crystallinity.With longer sintering times improving grain development and homogeneity,SEM research reveals a change in morphology from spherical grains at lower temperatures(1100-1200℃)to blocky grains at higher temperatures(1300-1500℃).HRTEM pictures verified the nanoparticles'strong crystallinity,and at higher temperatures,the lattice fringes widen and become more distinct,indicating better atomic ordering and diffusion.Stable and uniform high-entropy oxide production is indicated by the XPS spectra,which shows uniform elemental distribution and consistent chemical states of the constituent elements with very slight variations in the oxygen peaks.The findings highlight how important the sintering temperature is for reaching the intended high-entropy phase,with higher temperatures promoting improved atomic diffusion and compositional homogeneity.The results open the door for the use of high-entropy rare earth oxides in sophisticated functional materials by offering insightful information on how to best synthesize them.

文摘The structural design and performance characteristics of the diaphragm have a decisive impact on the safety and electrochemical performance of lithium-ion batteries(LIBs).However,traditional polyolefin diaphragms still face challenges in simultaneously improving the ion transport efficiency and thermal stability.Here,we report an in situ dynamic lithium compensation strategy for manufacturing a biobased furan aramid/ceramic diaphragm(BAS)with higher thermal stability and ion transport efficiency.Specifically,exchangeable carboxyl groups(–COOH)are introduced into the bio-based furan aramid(BA)framework,which are in situ converted into–COOLi groups to form lithium ions(Li^(+))transport channels,achieving dynamic compensation of active Li^(+).The dual transmission system of ion exchange and physical pore channels synergistically enhances the ionic conductivity of BAS to 1.536 mS cm^(-1).The high polarity structure of the furan ring and the electrolyte have excellent compatibility,significantly reducing the solid–liquid interfacial energy,making BAS have extremely high electrolyte wettability(contact angle of 0°).The BA amide group forms a multi-scale bonding network with the nano-ceramics.The BAS prepared by the water-coating process exhibits excellent thermal stability(with a thermal shrinkage rate of less than 1%after 1 h at 150℃).The LiFePO_(4)|Li half-cell assembled with BAS shows a capacity retention rate of up to 91.7%after 280 cycles at 1C,with a Coulomb efficiency of 99%,demonstrating excellent cycling stability.This design and development based on bio-materials provides a new approach for high safety and high energy density battery systems.

文摘Spikelet filling characteristics in early-season rice in southern China may be distinctive due to its exposure to high temperatures during the ripening period.However,limited information is currently available on these characteristics.This study aimed to characterize spikelet filling in early-season rice and identify the key factors contributing to its improvement.Field experiments were conducted over two years(2021 and 2022)to mainly investigate the proportions of fully-filled,partially-filled,and empty spikelets,along with the biomass-fertilized spikelet ratio and harvest index,in 11 early-season rice varieties.The results revealed significant varietal variation in spikelet filling,with the proportion of fully-filled spikelets ranging from 60.6%to 81.1%in 2021 and from 66.3%to 79.2%in 2022.Among the 11 varieties,Liangyou 42,Lingliangyou 942,and Liangyou 287 exhibited relatively superior performance in spikelet filling.Linear regression revealed that,although a significant negative relationship existed between the proportion of fully-filled spikelets and both partially-filled and empty spikelets,the relationship with partially-filled spikelets was stronger.Additionally,the proportion of fully-filled spikelets showed a significant positive relationship with the harvest index but not with the biomass-fertilized spikelet ratio.These findings indicate that increasing the harvest index and reducing the occurrence of partially-filled grains are essential strategies for improving spikelet filling in early-season rice.

文摘Aqueous zinc metal batteries(AZMBs)are promising candidates for renewable energy storage,yet their practical deployment in subzero environments remains challenging due to electrolyte freezing and dendritic growth.Although organic additives can enhance the antifreeze properties of electrolytes,their weak polarity diminishes ionic conductivity,and their flammability poses safety concerns,undermining the inherent advantages of aqueous systems.Herein,we present a cost-effective and highly stable Na_(2)SO_(4)additive introduced into a Zn(ClO_(4))2-based electrolyte to create an organic-free antifreeze electrolyte.Through Raman spectroscopy,in situ optical microscopy,densityfunctional theory computations,and molecular dynamics simulations,we demonstrate that Na+ions improve low-temperature electrolyte performance and mitigate dendrite formation by regulating uniform Zn^(2+)deposition through preferential adsorption and electrostatic interactions.As a result,the Zn||Zn cells using this electrolyte achieve a remarkable cycling life of 360 h at-40℃ with 61% depth of discharge,and the Zn||PANI cells retained an ultrahigh capacity retention of 91%even after 8000 charge/discharge cycles at-40℃.This work proposes a cost-effective and practical approach for enhancing the long-term operational stability of AZMBs in low-temperature environments.

文摘Nitric oxide(NO)is a key vasodilator that regulates vascular pressure and blood flow.Tibetans have developed a"blunted"mechanism for regulating NO levels at high altitude,with GTP cyclohydrolase 1(GCH1)identified as a key candidate gene.Here,we present comprehensive genetic and functional analyses of GCH1,which exhibits strong Darwinian positive selection in Tibetans.We show that Tibetan-enriched GCH1 variants down-regulate its expression in the blood of Tibetans.Based on this observation,we generate the heterozygous Gch1 knockout(Gch1^(+/-))mouse model to simulate its downregulation in Tibetans.We find that under prolonged hypoxia,the Gch1^(+/-)mice have relatively higher blood NO and blood oxygen saturation levels compared with the wild-type(WT)controls,providing better oxygen supplies to the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems.Markedly,hypoxia-induced cardiac hypertrophy and pulmonary remodeling are significantly attenuated in the Gch1^(^(+/-))mice compared with the WT controls,likely due to the adaptive changes in molecular regulations related to metabolism,inflammation,circadian rhythm,extracellular matrix,and oxidative stress.This study sheds light on the role of GCH1 in regulating blood NO,contributing to the physiological adaptation of the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems in Tibetans at high altitude.

文摘We propose an optimization method based on evolutionary computation for the design of broadband high-efficiency current-biased reverse load-modulation power amplifiers(CB-RLM PAs).First,given the reverse load-modulation characteristics of CB-RLM PAs,a comprehensive objective function is proposed that combines multi-state impedance trajectory constraints with in-band performance deviations.For the saturation and 6 dB power back-off(PBO)states,approximately optimal impedance regions on the Smith chart are derived using impedance constraint circles based on load-pull simulations.These regions are used together with in-band performance deviations(e.g.,saturated efficiency,6 dB PBO efficiency,and saturated output power)for matching network optimization and design.Second,a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition with adaptive weights,neighborhood,and global replacement is integrated with harmonic balance simulations to optimize design parameters and evaluate performance.Finally,to validate the proposed method,a broadband CB-RLM PA operating from 0.6 to 1.8 GHz is designed and fabricated.Measurement results show that the efficiencies at saturation,6 dB PBO,and 8 dB PBO all exceed 43.6%,with saturated output power being maintained at 40.9–41.5 dBm,which confirms the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed broadband high-efficiency CB-RLM PA optimization and design approach.

文摘We show that in Schwarzschild equivalent mediums,the massless spin particles obey the same dynamical equation,from which we obtain remarkably simple formulae for the frequencies of the quasibound states.We find that the quasibound frequencies of different bosons can be identical at the same quantum number l,and the same is true of different fermions,but a quasibound frequency for bosons can never equal a quasibound frequency for fermions.These results mean that in Schwarzschild equivalent mediums with the quasibound-state boundary conditions,characteristics of electromagnetic waves are the same as those for all the massless bosonic waves,thereby allowing electromagnetic waves to simulate gravitational waves.Our predictions can be tested in future experiments,building upon the successful preparation of Schwarzschild equivalent mediums.
