Herein, capillary electrophoresis(CE) was applied as sample introduction system for the sensitive, and interferencefree determination of ^(99)TcO_(4)^(-) from RuO_(4)^(-), and MoO_(4)^(2-) by ICP-MS with a simple sample treatment. Compared to the conventional methods, the hyphenated CE-ICP-MS avoids the use of expensive separation resins and reduces the consumption of mineral acid, representing a simpler, more efficient and environmentally benign approach. Moreover, the proposed method exhibits higher accuracy compared with the mathematical correction method using the natural isotope ratio of ^(99)Ru and ^(101)Ru, and significantly reduces sample consumption and the amount of waste, thus remarkably alleviating the radioactive exposure to operators and the pressure of radioactive waste treatment. Under the optimized conditions, the detection limits of 25 μg/L and 0.06 μg/L were obtained for RuO_(4)^(-) and ReO_(4)^(-)(Tc was replaced by Re), respectively, with relative standard deviation(RSD) lower than 5%. In addition, efficient recoveries of RuO_(4)^(-),ReO_(4)^(-),and ^(99)TcO_(4)^(-) from simulated Hanford site groundwater were achieved. The method is expected to be a promising candidate for sensitive and accurate analysis of ^(99)Tc from contaminated environmental samples.展开更多

文摘The reaction rate constant is a crucial kinetic parameter that governs the charge and discharge performance of batteries,particularly in high-rate and thick-electrode applications.However,conventional estimation or fitting methods often overestimate the charge transfer overpotential,leading to substantial errors in reaction rate constant measurements.These inaccuracies hinder the accurate prediction of voltage profiles and overall cell performance.In this study,we propose the characteristic time-decomposed overpotential(CTDO)method,which employs a single-layer particle electrode(SLPE)structure to eliminate interference overpotentials.By leveraging the distribution of relaxation times(DRT),our method effectively isolates the characteristic time of the charge transfer process,enabling a more precise determination of the reaction rate constant.Simulation results indicate that our approach reduces measurement errors to below 2%,closely aligning with theoretical values.Furthermore,experimental validation demonstrates an 80% reduction in error compared to the conventional galvanostatic intermittent titration technique(GITT)method.Overall,this study provides a novel voltage-based approach for determining the reaction rate constant,enhancing the applicability of theoretical analysis in electrode structural design and facilitating rapid battery optimization.

文摘In the realm of nonlinear integrable systems,the presence of decompositions facilitates the establishment of linear superposition solutions and the derivation of novel coupled systems exhibiting nonlinear integrability.By focusing on single-component decompositions within the potential BKP hierarchy,it has been observed that specific linear superpositions of decomposition solutions remain consistent with the underlying equations.Moreover,through the implementation of multi-component decompositions within the potential BKP hierarchy,successful endeavors have been undertaken to formulate linear superposition solutions and novel coupled Kd V-type systems that resist decoupling via alterations in dependent variables.

文摘Multi-component transition group metal borides(MMB_(2))have become a research hotspot due to their new composition design concepts and superior properties compared with conventional ceramics.Most of the current methods,however,are complicated and time-consuming,the mass production remains a chal-lenge.Herein,we proposed a new high-efficiency strategy for synthesis of MMB_(2)using molten aluminum as the medium for the first time.The prepared Al-containing multi-component borides(TiZrHfNbTa)B_(2)microcrystals had a homogeneous composition with a hexagonal AlB_(2)structure and ultra-high hardness value of∼35.3 GPa,which was much higher than data reported in the literature and the rule of mix-ture estimations.Furthermore,combined with the First-principles calculation results,we found that the Poisson’s ratio(v)values exhibit a clearly ascending trend from 0.17 at VEC=3.5 to 0.18 at VEC=3.4,then to 0.201 at VEC=3.2 with the increasing of Al content.This indicates that the intrinsic toughness of multi-component boride microcrystals is obviously enhanced by the trace-doped Al elements.Besides,the fabricated Al-containing multi-component boride microcrystals have superior oxidation activation en-ergy and structural stability.The enhanced oxidation resistance is mainly attributed to the formation of a protective Al2 O3 oxide layer and the lattice distortion,both of which lead to sluggish diffusion of O_(2).These findings propose a new unexplored avenue for the fabrication of MMB_(2)materials with supe-rior comprehensive performance including ultra-hardness and intrinsically improved thermo-mechanical properties.

文摘Fenton/Fenton-like reactions have gained popularity for their remarkable proficiency in decomposing organic pollutants,especially when enhanced by reductants addition for accel-erating the Fe2+regeneration.Nevertheless,these works predominantly centered on the formation and utilization of hydroxyl radicals(•OH)in the process,neglecting the evolution of oxidant and reductant due to the difficulty in the simultaneous determination of these two components.By employing the quenching-iodometric method,we could simultaneously determine the concentrations of HSO_(3)-and peroxydisulfate(PDS).This method first employed an excess of peroxymonosulfate(PMS)to effectively quench HSO_(3)-,and then used the iodometric spectrophotometry to simultaneously determine the concentrations of PMS and PDS in the reaction system.Finally,through precise stoichiometric relationships,we could accurately calculate the concentration of HSO_(3)-.Based on this method,we achieved concentration measurements that,upon linear fitting,yielded a correlation coefficient(R^(2))surpassing 0.99,unequivocally affirming the method’s accuracy and trustworthiness.In this work,an innovation approach for determining the concentrations of HSO_(3)-(reductant)and PDS(oxidant)was explored.Additionally,the resilience of the method was verified across different pH levels and in the presence of diverse impurity ions.The results ensured precise concentration measure-ments in the real wastewater.This method was characterized by its simplicity,rapid analysis,and environmental friendliness,offering a newanalytical strategy for the determination of PDS and HSO_(3)-in environmental samples.The method enables more meticulous monitoring of chemical usage in water treatment,facilitating optimized dosing strategies and assessments of reductant-enhanced Fenton or Fenton-like system in water purification.

文摘In paleoseismic research,defining the age of an event is relatively straightforward,but pinpointing its magnitude with precision is challenging.This difficulty primarily arises because physical parameters,such as rupture area and displacement,which are intimately linked to the seismic moment,are hard to derive from paleoseismic studies.Our preceding study identified two earthquake sites in Huoshan and Guzhen,Anhui Province.While we qualitatively described the timing of these occurrences and the characteristics of sand veins,dislocations,and earthquake-induced cracks,we did not provide quantitative estimates of their magnitude or seismogenic faults.Consequently,these findings were insufficient for assessing regional seismic risks or determining the potential magnitude of specific faults.This study employs two empirical relationships:one between the farthest distribution distance based on liquefaction from earthquake-induced events and magnitude,and the other concerning the intensityepicenter distance-magnitude relationship.Through these relationships,we analyze the sandy soil liquefaction and earthquake-induced cracks quantitatively.The analysis includes magnitude estimation and seismogenic fault evaluation for the sandy soil liquefaction and crack remnants of the Huoshan Daijiayuan earthquake,as well as the dislocation and crack remnants of the Guzhen Gaixia earthquake.The findings indicate that the Huoshan Daijiayuan site records two paleoseismic events.The first event transpired after 850 BC,and the second after 550 BC,with a gap of approximately 300 years between them;both had a seismic magnitude(M_(S))of around 6.0.The likely seismogenic fault for the Huoshan Daijiayuan earthquake is the Luoerling-Tudiling fault.Meanwhile,the paleoseismic site in Guzhen Gaixia documents two seismic events occurring during 2350-2050 BC,both with a seismic magnitude(MS)of approximately 6½.The Tancheng-Lujiang fault zone is likely the seismogenic fault associated with the Guzhen Gaixia earthquake site.

文摘The hardening mechanism of multi-component carbide ceramic has been investigated in detail through a combination of experiments,first-principles calculations,and ab initio molecular dynamics(AIMD).Eight dense carbide ceramics were prepared by spark plasma sintering.Compulsorily,all the multi-component carbide samples have similar carbon content,grain size,and uniform compositional distribution by optimizing the sintering process and adjusting the initial raw materials.Hence the interference of other factors on the hardness of multi-component carbide ceramics is minimized.The effects of changes in the elemental species on the lattice distortion,bond strength,bonding properties,and electronic structure of multi-component carbide ceramics were thoroughly analyzed.These results show that the hardening of multi-component carbide ceramic can be attributed to the coupling of solid solution strengthening caused by lattice distortion and covalent bond strengthening.Besides,the“host lattice”of multi-component carbide ceramics is defined based on the concept of supporting lattice.The present work is of great significance for a deeper understanding of the hardening mechanism of multi-component carbide ceramics and the design of superhard multi-component carbides.

文摘This study demonstrates the fabrication of mesoporous tungsten trioxide(WO_(3))-decorated flexible polyimide(PI)electrodes for the highly sensitive detection of catechol(CC)and hydroquinone(HQ),two environmental pollutants.Organic-inorganic composite dots are formed on flexible PI electrodes using evaporation-induced self-assembly(EISA)and electrospray methods.The EISA process is induced by a temperature gradient during electrospray,and the heated substrate partially decomposes the organic parts etched by O_(2) plasma,creating mesoporous structures.Differential pulse voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry demonstrate a linear correlation between analyte concentration and the electrochemical response.Computational studies support the spontaneous adsorption of CC and HQ molecules on model WO_(3) surfaces.The proposed sensor shows high sensitivity,a wide linear range,and a low detection limit for both individual and simultaneous determination of CC and HQ.Real sample analysis on river water confirms practical applicability.The WO_(3)-decorated PI electrode presents an efficient and reliable approach for detecting these pollutants,contributing to environmental safety measures.

文摘Instantaneous Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS)attitude determination method which achieves real-time attitude determination using GNSS signal has been extensively studied,particularly the one using a priori attitude information replacing the code measurements to enhance the successful rate for ambiguity resolution.However,there exists a key limitation that this method relies on considerable Monte Carlo sampling particles to construct the pdf of ambiguities,resulting in significant computational burdens.To address this limitation,this paper provides a rapid single-epoch GNSS attitude determination method based on a priori attitude information.It utilizes a second-order Taylor expansion to analytically estimate the covariance of the baseline conditioned on a priori attitude information.This is followed by deriving the float solution and covariance of ambiguities,which are then processed using the standard LAMBDA method for integer ambiguity resolution.Experimental results demonstrate that our method is both efficient and accurate,significantly reducing computational costs compared to previous methods,thereby enhancing its applicability for GNSS-based attitude determination.

文摘Nighttime navigation faces challenges from limited data and interference,especially when satellite signals are unavailable.Leveraging lunar polarized light,polarization navigation offers a promising solution for nighttime autonomous navigation.Current algorithms,however,are limited by the requirement for known horizontal attitudes,restricting applications.This study introduces an autonomous 3-D attitude determination method to overcome this limitation.Our approach utilizes the Angle of Polarization(AOP)at night to extract neutral points from the AOP pattern.This allows for the calculation of polarization meridian plane information for attitude determination.Subsequently,we present an optimized Polarization TRIAD(Pol-TRIAD)algorithm to acquire the 3-D attitude.The proposed method outperforms the existing approaches in outdoor experiments by achieving lower Root Mean Square Error(RMSE).For one baseline attitude,it improves pitch by 31.7%,roll by 21.7%,and yaw by 2.6%,while for the attitude with a larger tilt angle,the improvements are 64.4%,30.4%,and 9.1%,respectively.
文摘Navigation satellites generally use satellite-ground and inter-satellite observation data for precise orbit determination.In orbit determination,the satellite position is often referenced to the satellite’s centroid,while the observational measurements are referenced to the satellite’s antenna phase center.The deviation between the satellite’s centroid and the antenna phase center forms the satellite antenna phase center error,which affects the precision of orbit determination.This paper takes a global navigation satellite system(GNSS)MEO satellite as an example and analyzes the actual situation of the satellite antenna phase center deviation and phase center variation based on the ground calibration data of the in-orbit satellite antenna phase center and the satellite’s in-orbit working status.The analysis shows that the antenna phase center variation caused by the satellite’s in-orbit operation is only at the centimeter level,which has a limited impact on orbit determination accuracy.The main source of precise orbit determination error is the satellite antenna phase center deviation,which can be corrected using ground calibration data.

文摘The exploratory synthesis and structural characterization of twodimensional(2D)honeycomb structured Ru-based compounds are key focuses in inorganic materials research,due to the various exotic electronic states arising from the interplay of electron correlations and spinorbit coupling.Among these compounds,α-RuCl_(3) and RuBr_(3) are considered as the most promising candidates for quantum spin liquid(QSL)materials[1–3].As a homolog,α-RuI3 has attracted significant interest,but it still remains relatively unexplored.Recently,it was synthesized by high-temperature and high-pressure solid-state reaction,but reported to be different crystal structures by independent groups.Ni et al.and Nawa et al.considerα-RuI3 to be R-3(3R)and P-31c(2H)space group,respectively[4,5].Both structures have typical 2D characteristics,in which the edge-sharing RuI6 octahedra form honeycomb layers stacked along the c-axis.The primary difference lies in that the honeycomb layers stack in ABCABC mode in the 3R phase,while in ABAB mode in the 2H phase(Fig.S1).Yang et al.discussed the stability of 3R and 2H polymorphs in terms of the total energies and dynamics,finding both structures are stable.However,the total energy of the 2H phase is slightly higher,2.58 meV than that of the 3R analog[6].When it comes to the conductivity behaviour,α-RuCl3 andα-RuBr_(3) are semiconductors as normally observed in QSL materials.In contrast,α-RuI_(3) exhibits metallic response.In 2D materials,the band structure may be drastically modified by altering the stacking order[7].Hence,determining the crystal structure ofα-RuI_(3) is urgently required,which is a key step in comprehensive and in-depth analysis of its physical properties.

文摘The deployment of the low earth orbit(LEO)satellites provides a large number of signals of opportunity(SOPs),unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)positioning and navigation via LEO-SOPs have re-ceived much attention.Current research is focused on Doppler positioning techniques,which require the collaboration of multiple satellites(≥3).However,the dynamic changes of LEO satellites weaken the generalization ability of Doppler positioning.In this paper,a direct position determination(DPD)method with uniform circular array(UCA)is proposed for UAV positioning from the perspective of the spatial spectrum estimation of LEO-SOPs.The proposed method employs the orthogonality between the signal and noise subspaces of the covariance matrix of the different received SOPs to establish the cost function for UAV’s coordinate.Instead of the multiple dimen-sional search,a root mean square propagation(RM-SProp)gradient optimizer with an adaptive learning rate is developed to find the coordinate of UAV.The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method are verified using numerical data generated from the systems tool kit(STK).
