The slight change of backbones inside frameworks leads to different electronic states by external stimuli, such as solvent, pH, and water. Herein, we introduced an alkynyl-based building block (ETBA) with high planarity to synthesize two imine-based alkynyl-COFs (ETBA-TAPE-COF and ETBA-PYTA-COF) with high yield, good crystallinity, and chemical stability. Due to the presence of acetylene bonds, ETBA-TAPE-COF does not adopt the completely overlapping AA stacking mode. Slight interlayer displacement occurs along the parallel direction relative to the acetylene linkages, which facilitates lower configurational energy. Additionally, the introduction of pyrene group contributes to high π-electron mobility of ETBA-PYTA-COF. The interactions between electron-withdrawing group (ETBA) and electron-donating group (PYTA) during the processes of protonation and intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) endow ETBA-PYTA-COF with excellent acidochromic and solvatochromic properties, respectively. Based on this, a fluorescence sensor is successfully established, which can be used for rapid response to trace amounts of water in organic solvents. In contrast, ETBA-TAPE-COF does not exhibit these photophysical properties due to its higher HOMO–LUMO gap compared to ETBA-PYTA-COF. This work proposes a new strategy for designing and preparing COFs with unique photophysical properties without introducing additional functional groups.展开更多

文摘High-resolution remote sensing images(HRSIs)are now an essential data source for gathering surface information due to advancements in remote sensing data capture technologies.However,their significant scale changes and wealth of spatial details pose challenges for semantic segmentation.While convolutional neural networks(CNNs)excel at capturing local features,they are limited in modeling long-range dependencies.Conversely,transformers utilize multihead self-attention to integrate global context effectively,but this approach often incurs a high computational cost.This paper proposes a global-local multiscale context network(GLMCNet)to extract both global and local multiscale contextual information from HRSIs.A detail-enhanced filtering module(DEFM)is proposed at the end of the encoder to refine the encoder outputs further,thereby enhancing the key details extracted by the encoder and effectively suppressing redundant information.In addition,a global-local multiscale transformer block(GLMTB)is proposed in the decoding stage to enable the modeling of rich multiscale global and local information.We also design a stair fusion mechanism to transmit deep semantic information from deep to shallow layers progressively.Finally,we propose the semantic awareness enhancement module(SAEM),which further enhances the representation of multiscale semantic features through spatial attention and covariance channel attention.Extensive ablation analyses and comparative experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed method.Specifically,our method achieved a mean Intersection over Union(mIoU)of 86.89%on the ISPRS Potsdam dataset and 84.34%on the ISPRS Vaihingen dataset,outperforming existing models such as ABCNet and BANet.

文摘To investigate the damage evolution caused by stress-driven and sub-critical crack propagation within the Beishan granite under multi-creep triaxial compressive conditions,the distributed optical fiber sensing and X-ray computed tomography were combined to obtain the strain distribution over the sample surface and internal fractures of the samples.The Gini and skewness(G-S)coefficients were used to quantify strain localization during tests,where the Gini coefficient reflects the degree of clustering of elements with high strain values,i.e.,strain localization/delocalization.The strain localization-induced asymmetry of data distribution is quantified by the skewness coefficient.A precursor to granite failure is defined by the rapid and simultaneous increase of the G-S coefficients,which are calculated from strain increment,giving an earlier warning of failure by about 8%peak stress than those from absolute strain values.Moreover,the process of damage accumulation due to stress-driven crack propagation in Beishan granite is different at various confining pressures as the stress exceeds the crack initiation stress.Concretely,strain localization is continuous until brittle failure at higher confining pressure,while both strain localization and delocalization occur at lower confining pressure.Despite the different stress conditions,a similar statistical characteristic of strain localization during the creep stage is observed.The Gini coefficient increases,and the skewness coefficient decreases slightly as the creep stress is below 95%peak stress.When the accelerated strain localization begins,the Gini and skewness coefficients increase rapidly and simultaneously.

文摘A multi-stage stress relaxation test was performed on a granodiorite sample to understand the deformation process prior to the macroscopic failure of brittle rocks,as well as the transient response during stress relaxation.Distributed optical fiber sensing was used to measure strains across the sample surface by helically wrapping the single-mode fiber around the cylindrical sample.Close agreement was observed between the circumferential strains obtained from the optical fibers and the extensometer.The reconstructed full-field strain contours show strain heterogeneity from the crack closure phase,and the strains in the later deformation phase are dominantly localized within the former high-strain zone.The Gini coefficient was used to quantify the degree of strain localization and shows an initial increase during the crack closure phase,a decrease during the linear elastic phase,and a subsequent increase during the post-yielding phase.This behavior corresponds to a process of initial localization from an imperfect boundary condition,homogenization,and eventual relocalization prior to the macroscopic failure of the sample.The transient strain rate decay during the stress relaxation phase was quantified using the p-value in the“Omori-like"power law function.A higher initial stress at the onset of relaxation results in a lower p-value,indicating a slower strain rate decay.As the sample approaches macroscopic failure,the lowest p-value shifts from the most damaged zone to adjacent areas,suggesting stress redistribution or crack propagation in deformed crystalline rocks under stress relaxation conditions.

文摘Detecting biomarkers in body fluids by optical lateral flow immune assay(LFIA) technology provides rapid access to disease information for early diagnosis.LFIA is based on an antigen-antibody reaction and is rapidly becoming the preferred choice of physicians and patients for point-of-care testing due to its simplicity,cost-effectiveness,and rapid detection.Observing the optical signal change from the colloidal gold of the traditional LFIA strip has been widely applied for various biomarkers detection in body fluids.Despite the significant progress,rapid real-time detection of color changes in the colloidal gold by the naked eye still faces many limitations,such as large errors and the inability to quantify and accurately detect.New optical LFIA strip technology has emerged in recent years to extend its application scenarios for achieving quantitative detection such as fluorescence,afterglow,and chemiluminescence.Herein,we summarized the development of optical LFIA technology from single to hyphenated optical signals for biomarkers detection in body fluids from invasive and non-invasive sources.Moreover,the challenge and outlook of optical LFIA strip technology are highlighted to inspire the designing of next-generation diagnostic platforms.

文摘Remote sensing image super-resolution technology is pivotal for enhancing image quality in critical applications including environmental monitoring,urban planning,and disaster assessment.However,traditional methods exhibit deficiencies in detail recovery and noise suppression,particularly when processing complex landscapes(e.g.,forests,farmlands),leading to artifacts and spectral distortions that limit practical utility.To address this,we propose an enhanced Super-Resolution Generative Adversarial Network(SRGAN)framework featuring three key innovations:(1)Replacement of L1/L2 loss with a robust Charbonnier loss to suppress noise while preserving edge details via adaptive gradient balancing;(2)A multi-loss joint optimization strategy dynamically weighting Charbonnier loss(β=0.5),Visual Geometry Group(VGG)perceptual loss(α=1),and adversarial loss(γ=0.1)to synergize pixel-level accuracy and perceptual quality;(3)A multi-scale residual network(MSRN)capturing cross-scale texture features(e.g.,forest canopies,mountain contours).Validated on Sentinel-2(10 m)and SPOT-6/7(2.5 m)datasets covering 904 km2 in Motuo County,Xizang,our method outperforms the SRGAN baseline(SR4RS)with Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio(PSNR)gains of 0.29 dB and Structural Similarity Index(SSIM)improvements of 3.08%on forest imagery.Visual comparisons confirm enhanced texture continuity despite marginal Learned Perceptual Image Patch Similarity(LPIPS)increases.The method significantly improves noise robustness and edge retention in complex geomorphology,demonstrating 18%faster response in forest fire early warning and providing high-resolution support for agricultural/urban monitoring.Future work will integrate spectral constraints and lightweight architectures.

文摘With the growing advancement of wireless communication technologies,WiFi-based human sensing has gained increasing attention as a non-intrusive and device-free solution.Among the available signal types,Channel State Information(CSI)offers fine-grained temporal,frequency,and spatial insights into multipath propagation,making it a crucial data source for human-centric sensing.Recently,the integration of deep learning has significantly improved the robustness and automation of feature extraction from CSI in complex environments.This paper provides a comprehensive review of deep learning-enhanced human sensing based on CSI.We first outline mainstream CSI acquisition tools and their hardware specifications,then provide a detailed discussion of preprocessing methods such as denoising,time–frequency transformation,data segmentation,and augmentation.Subsequently,we categorize deep learning approaches according to sensing tasks—namely detection,localization,and recognition—and highlight representative models across application scenarios.Finally,we examine key challenges including domain generalization,multi-user interference,and limited data availability,and we propose future research directions involving lightweight model deployment,multimodal data fusion,and semantic-level sensing.

文摘Stimuli-responsive two-dimensional (2D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with precise structures and permanent porosity have been employed as platforms for sensors. The slight change of backbones inside frameworks leads to different electronic states by external stimuli, such as solvent, pH, and water. Herein, we introduced an alkynyl-based building block (ETBA) with high planarity to synthesize two imine-based alkynyl-COFs (ETBA-TAPE-COF and ETBA-PYTA-COF) with high yield, good crystallinity, and chemical stability. Due to the presence of acetylene bonds, ETBA-TAPE-COF does not adopt the completely overlapping AA stacking mode. Slight interlayer displacement occurs along the parallel direction relative to the acetylene linkages, which facilitates lower configurational energy. Additionally, the introduction of pyrene group contributes to high π-electron mobility of ETBA-PYTA-COF. The interactions between electron-withdrawing group (ETBA) and electron-donating group (PYTA) during the processes of protonation and intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) endow ETBA-PYTA-COF with excellent acidochromic and solvatochromic properties, respectively. Based on this, a fluorescence sensor is successfully established, which can be used for rapid response to trace amounts of water in organic solvents. In contrast, ETBA-TAPE-COF does not exhibit these photophysical properties due to its higher HOMO–LUMO gap compared to ETBA-PYTA-COF. This work proposes a new strategy for designing and preparing COFs with unique photophysical properties without introducing additional functional groups.

文摘Ionogels have demonstrated substantial applications in smart wearable systems,soft robotics,and biomedical engineering due to the exceptional ionic conductivity and optical transparency.However,achieving ionogels with desirable mechanical properties,environmental stability,and multi-mode sensing remains challenging.Here,we propose a simple strategy for the fabrication of multifunctional silk fabric-based ionogels(BSFIGs).The resulting fabric ionogels exhibits superior mechanical properties,with high tensile strength(11.3 MPa)and work of fracture(2.53 MJ/m^(3)).And its work of fracture still has 1.42 MJ/m^(3)as the notch increased to 50%,indicating its crack growth insensitivity.These ionogels can be used as sensors for strain,temperature,and tactile multimode sensing,demonstrating a gauge factor of 1.19 and a temperature coefficient of resistance of3.17/℃^(-1).Furthermore,these ionogels can be used for the detection of different roughness and as touch screens.The ionogels also exhibit exceptional optical transmittance and environmental stability even at80℃.Our scalable fabrication process broadens the application potential of these multifunctional ionogels in diverse fields,from smart systems to extreme environments.

文摘Chloroform and other volatile organic pollutants have garnered widespread attention from the public and researchers,because of their potential harm to the respiratory system,nervous system,skin,and eyes.However,research on chloroform vapor sensing is still in its early stages,primarily due to the lack of specific recognition motif.Here we report a mesoporous photonic crystal sensor incorporating carbon dots-based nanoreceptor(HMSS@CDs-PCs)for enhanced chloroform sensing.The colloidal PC packed with hollow mesoporous silica spheres provides an interconnected ordered macro-meso-hierarchical porous structure,ideal for rapid gas sensing utilizing the photonic bandgap shift as the readout signal.The as-synthesized CDs with pyridinic-N-oxide functional groups adsorbed in the hollow mesoporous silica spheres are found to not only serve as the chloroform adsorption sites,but also a molecular glue that prevents crack formation in the colloidal PC.The sensitivity of HMSS@CDs-PCs sensor is 0.79 nm ppm^(-1)and an impressively low limit of detection is 3.22 ppm,which are the best reported values in fast-response chloroform vapor sensor without multi-signal assistance.The positive response time is 7.5 s and the negative response time 9 s.Furthermore,relatively stable sensing can be maintained within a relative humidity of 20%-85%RH and temperature of 25-55℃.This study demonstrates that HMSS@CDs-PCs sensors have practical application potential in indoor and outdoor chloroform vapor detection.

文摘An improved model based on you only look once version 8(YOLOv8)is proposed to solve the problem of low detection accuracy due to the diversity of object sizes in optical remote sensing images.Firstly,the feature pyramid network(FPN)structure of the original YOLOv8 mode is replaced by the generalized-FPN(GFPN)structure in GiraffeDet to realize the"cross-layer"and"cross-scale"adaptive feature fusion,to enrich the semantic information and spatial information on the feature map to improve the target detection ability of the model.Secondly,a pyramid-pool module of multi atrous spatial pyramid pooling(MASPP)is designed by using the idea of atrous convolution and feature pyramid structure to extract multi-scale features,so as to improve the processing ability of the model for multi-scale objects.The experimental results show that the detection accuracy of the improved YOLOv8 model on DIOR dataset is 92%and mean average precision(mAP)is 87.9%,respectively 3.5%and 1.7%higher than those of the original model.It is proved the detection and classification ability of the proposed model on multi-dimensional optical remote sensing target has been improved.
文摘Sixth Generation(6G)mobile communication networks will involve sensing as a new function,with the overwhelming trend of Integrated Sensing And Communications(ISAC).Although expanding the serving range of the networks,there exists performance trade-offbetween communication and sensing,in that they have competitions on the physical resources.Different resource allocation schemes will result in different sensing and communication performance,thus influencing the system’s overall performance.Therefore,how to model the system’s overall performance,and how to optimize it are key issues for ISAC.Relying on the large-scale deployment of the networks,cooperative ISAC has the advantages of wider coverage,more robust performance and good compatibility of multiple monostatic and multistatic sensing,compared to the non-cooperative ISAC.How to capture the performance gain of cooperation is a key issue for cooperative ISAC.To address the aforementioned vital problems,in this paper,we analyze the sensing accuracy gain,propose a unified ISAC performance evaluation framework and design several optimization methods in cooperative ISAC systems.The cooperative sensing accuracy gain is theoretically analyzed via Cramér Rao lower bound.The unified ISAC performance evaluation model is established by converting the communication mutual information to the effective minimum mean squared error.To optimize the unified ISAC performance,we design the optimization algorithms considering three factors:base stations’working modes,power allocation schemes and waveform design.Through simulations,we show the performance gain of the cooperative ISAC system and the effectiveness of the proposed optimization methods.

文摘Wearable thermoelectric devices hold significant promise in the realm of self-powered wearable electron-ics,offering applications in energy harvesting,movement tracking,and health monitoring.Nevertheless,developing thermoelectric devices with exceptional flexibility,enduring thermoelectric stability,multi-functional sensing,and comfortable wear remains a challenge.In this work,a stretchable MXene-based thermoelectric fabric is designed to accurately discern temperature and strain stimuli.This is achieved by constructing an adhesive polydopamine(PDA)layer on the nylon fabric surface,which facilitates the subsequent MXene attachment through hydrogen bonding.This fusion results in MXene-based thermo-electric fabric that excels in both temperature sensing and strain sensing.The resultant MXene-based thermoelectric fabric exhibits outstanding temperature detection capability and cyclic stability,while also delivering excellent sensitivity,rapid responsiveness(60 ms),and remarkable durability in strain sens-ing(3200 cycles).Moreover,when affixed to a mask,this MXene-based thermoelectric fabric utilizes the temperature difference between the body and the environment to harness body heat,converting it into electrical energy and accurately discerning the body’s respiratory rate.In addition,the MXene-based ther-moelectric fabric can monitor the state of the body’s joint through its own deformation.Furthermore,it possesses the capability to convert solar energy into heat.These findings indicate that MXene-based ther-moelectric fabric holds great promise for applications in power generation,motion tracking,and health monitoring.

文摘The rise in gas leakage incidents underscores the urgent need for advanced gas-sensing platforms with ultra-low concentration detection capability.Sensing gate field effect transistor(FET)gas sensors,renowned for the gas-induced signal amplification without directly exposing the channel to the ambient environment,play a pivotal role in detecting trace-level hazardous gases with high sensitivity and good stability.In this work,carbon nanotubes are employed as the conducting channel,and yttrium oxide(Y_(2)O_(3))is utilized as the gate dielectric layer.Noble metal Pd is incorporated as a sensing gate for hydrogen(H_(2))detection,leveraging its catalytic properties and unique adsorption capability.The fabricated carbon-based FET gas sensor demonstrates a remarkable detection limit of 20×10^(–9) for H_(2) under an air environment,enabling early warning in case of gas leakage.Moreover,the as-prepared sensor exhibited good selectivity,repeatability,and anti-humidity properties.Further experiments elucidate the interaction between H_(2) and sensing electrode under an air/nitrogen environment,providing insights into the underlying oxygen-assisted recoverable sensing mechanism.It is our aspiration for this research to establish a robust experimental foundation for achieving high performance and highly integrated fabrication of trace gas sensors.

文摘Acoustic detection has many applications across science and technology from medicine to imaging and communications.However,most acoustic sensors have a common limitation in that the detection must be near the acoustic source.Alternatively,laser interferometry with picometer-scale motional displacement detection can rapidly and precisely measure sound-induced minute vibrations on remote surfaces.Here,we demonstrate the feasibility of sound detection up to 100 kHz at remote sites with≈60 m optical path length via laser homodyne interferometry.Based on our ultrastable hertz linewidth laser with 10-15 fractional stability,our laser interferometer achieves 0.5 pm/Hz1/2 displacement sensitivity near 10 kHz,bounded only by laser frequency noise over 10 kHz.Between 140 Hz and 15 kHz,we achieve a homodyne acoustic sensing sensitivity of subnanometer/Pascal across our conversational frequency overtones.The minimal sound pressure detectable over 60 m optical path length is≈2 mPa,with dynamic ranges over 100 dB.With the demonstrated standoff picometric distance metrology,we successfully detected and reconstructed musical scores of normal conversational volumes with high fidelity.The acoustic detection via this precision laser interferometer could be applied to selective area sound sensing for remote acoustic metrology,optomechanical vibrational motion sensing,and ultrasensitive optical microphones at the laser frequency noise limits.

文摘Curved geostructures,such as tunnels,are commonly encountered in geotechnical engineering and are critical to maintaining structural stability.Ensuring their proper performance through field monitoring during their service life is essential for the overall functionality of geotechnical infrastructure.Distributed Brillouin sensing(DBS)is increasingly applied in geotechnical projects due to its ability to acquire spatially continuous strain and temperature distributions over distances of up to 150 km using a single optical fibre.However,limited by the complex operations of distributed optic fibre sensing(DFOS)sensors in curved structures,previous reports about exploiting DBS in geotechnical structural health monitoring(SHM)have mostly been focused on flat surfaces.The lack of suitable DFOS installation methods matched to the spatial characteristics of continuous monitoring is one of the major factors that hinder the further application of this technique in curved structures.This review paper starts with a brief introduction of the fundamental working principle of DBS and the inherent limitations of DBS being used on monitoring curved surfaces.Subsequently,the state-of-the-art installation methods of optical fibres in curved structures are reviewed and compared to address the most suitable scenario of each method and their advantages and disadvantages.The installation challenges of optical fibres that can highly affect measurement accuracy are also discussed in the paper.
