Here, systematic transport measurements were conducted in graphene-based electronic double-layer structures, revealing giant yet reproducible drag fluctuations at cryogenic temperatures. These fluctuations' characteristics, including amplitude and peak/valley spacing, are mainly determined by the drag layer's carrier dynamics rather than the drive layer's, resulting in violation of the Onsager reciprocity relation. Notably, the drag fluctuations remain observable up to 35 K, far exceeding universal conductance fluctuations within individual layers. This suggests enhanced phase coherence in inter-layer drag compared to single-layer transport, as further confirmed by quantitative analysis of auto-correlation fields of fluctuations under magnetic fields. Our findings provide new insights into quantum interference effects and their interplay with Coulomb interactions in solids. The observations of significant drag fluctuations could potentially help address chaotic signals between nearby components in nanoscale devices.展开更多

Particularly superconductivity in AV_(3)Sb_(5) is significantly enhanced when this charge order is suppressed by pressure or doping. Distinct from magnetic order, loop-current order does not couple directly to spin and thus whether such fluctuations can enhance superconductivity remains elusive. We design a sign problem-free bilayer kagome model coupled to quantum Ising spins through bond currents and perform determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulations to explore single-particle properties and superconductivity arising from 2 × 2 loopcurrent fluctuations. We find that this loop-current order induces intriguing band folding, band broadening,and gap opening around saddle points. Remarkably, our pairing susceptibility analysis identifies a dominant enhancement of superconductivity due to loop-current fluctuations, with the dominant pairing being the chiral d-wave channel. This pairing primarily occurs within the intra-sublattice channel and involves third nearestneighbor sites, attributed to the unique sublattice texture associated with van Hove singularities. We also discuss potential experimental implications for kagome superconductors.展开更多

Merr.) coordinates multiple physiological adjustments to FL remains poorly understood.This study assessed the effects of FL on soybean morphology and photosynthetic traits by examining changes in photosynthetic gas exchange parameters and chlorophyll(Chl) a fluorescence under alternating high-and low-light conditions.Results indicated that soybeans exposed to FL exhibited reduced dry matter accumulation,smaller and thinner leaves,and a lower Chl a/Chl b levels-characteristics typically associated with plants grown under continuous low-light.Despite these morphological similarities,their photosynthetic gas exchange rates and photosynthetic capacity were maintained at levels comparable to those under steady high light,unlike plants grown under constant low-light.Thus,acclimation to FL is distinct from adaptation to sustained low-light conditions.Correlation analyses revealed that the decline in carbon assimilation under FL primarily stemmed from two factors:the slow recovery of stomatal conductance upon transition to high light and the delayed relaxation of nonphotochemical quenching when light intensity decreased.Therefore,the reduction in carbon assimilation under FL cannot be attributed to low-light phase adjustments but rather reflects a lag in photosynthetic responsiveness to changing light conditions.展开更多

[Method] The dis- tribution characteristics of grassland were described by land use types supervised classification with TM/ETM. Then, temporal-spatial changes of grassland coverage were quantified by the mean of maximum vegetation coverage in last 30 years. Lastly, the grassland degradation reasons were explored through statistic analysis between the grassland coverage and precipitation, temperature and grazing intensity. [Result] The grassland degradation index of Inner Mongolia was increased from 1.38 to 1.68, and the smallest was 1.28 in 2005s. Grassland degradation and improve- ment were concurrent after 1980s, but grassland degradation was the major change trend for Inner Mongolia grassland. The area of grassland degradation was enlarged from 18.08×10^4 km2 in 1980s to 22.47×10^4 km2 in 2010s on the whole and distribu- tion range was shifted from central-eastern to west in Inner Mongolia that mainly distributed on Hulun Buir and Xilin Gol grassland in 1980s and Ordos and Alax grassland in 2010s. The grassland area of degradation had a rising trend form 1980s to 1995s, then reduced to 10.8x104 km2 in 2005s, and decreased in 2010s, which mainly speared in the west of Xilin Gol grassland. [Conclusion] Inner Mongo-lian grassland degradation were become more seriously in last 30 years because that temperature, precipitation and graze intensities change, which not performance on decreasing coverage but grassland areas.展开更多

The proposed model is succinct in methodology and calculation complexity compared with previous statistical models. However,it provides favorable estimations of CMOS process fluctuations on the SCM circuit, which makes it promising for engineering applications. The model statistically abstracts physical parameters, which depend on the IC process, into random variables with certain mean values and standard deviations, while aggregating all the random impacts into a discrete martingale. The correctness of the proposed method is experimentally verified on an SCM circuit implemented in an SMIC 0.18μm CMOS 1P6M mixed signal process with a conversion factor of 100 in an input range from 100pA to lμA. The pro- posed theory successfully predicts - 10% of die-to-die fluctuation measured in the experiment, and also suggests the -lmV of threshold voltage standard deviation over a single die,which meets the process parameters suggested by the design kit from the foundry. The deviations between calculated probabilities and measured data are less than 8%. Meanwhile, pertinent suggestions concerning high fluctuation tolerance subthreshold analog circuit design are also made and discussed.展开更多

文摘Implementing additive manufacturing to NiTi(Nitinol)alloys typically enables a preferred<001>_(B2) tex-ture along the building direction.Unfortunately,this growth orientation always possesses a high criti-cal stress level to induce the martensitic transformation and experiences premature failure before the formation of martensite during tensile testing.By utilizing in situ characterization technologies,in this study,we demonstrate that by fabricating a NiTi sample with complete<001>_(B2) texture using wire-fed electron beam directed energy deposition,a sluggish martensitic transformation can be achieved to re-tard the initiation of fracture under tensile loading.To discern the origins of this tensile response,we combine experiments with molecular dynamics simulations to systematically analyze the micro-scale de-tails on how internal lattice defects can select the variety of martensite variants.Using both quasi in situ transmission electron microscopy analysis and calculations of the different atomic configurations,our results indicate that the pre-existing precipitates and accumulated dislocation defects,rather than columnar boundaries,can have a positive influence on the sluggish formation of variants that can cou-ple with plastic deformation within a much wider stress interval.Specifically,only the variant favored by both internal strain/stress fluctuations around local defects and external tensile load will overcome the high-energy transition barrier of<001>_(B2)-oriented tension to nucleate and grow sluggishly.The cur-rent findings not only show how the mechanical responses can be controlled in additively manufactured NiTi alloys with<001>_(B2) texture,but also regard this understanding to be a step forward in decoding the salient underlying mechanisms for the correlating texture,defects,and phase transformation of these functional materials.

文摘A coalescence model was employed to form deuterons(d),tritons(t),and helium-3(^(3)He)nuclei from a uniformly-distributed volume of protons(p)and neutrons(n).We studied the ratio N_(t)N_(p)/N_(d)^(2)of light nuclei yields as a function of the neutron density fluctuations.We investigated the effect of finite transverse momentum(p_(T))acceptance on the ratio,in particular,the“extrapolation factor”(f)for the ratio as a function of the p_(T)spectral shape and the magnitude of neutron density fluctuations.The nature of f was found to be monotonic in p_(T)spectra“temperature”parameter and neutron density fluctuation magnitude;variations in the latter are relatively small.We also examined f in realistic simulations using the kinematic distributions of protons measured from the heavy-ion collision data.The nature of f was found to be smooth and monotonic as a function of the beam energy.Therefore,we conclude that extrapolation from limited p_(T)ranges does not create,enhance,or reduce the local peak of the N_(t)N_(p)/N_(d)^(2)ratio in the beam energy.Our study provides a necessary benchmark for light nuclei ratios as a probe for nucleon density fluctuations,an important observation in the search for the critical point of nuclear matter.

文摘The floodplain of the Yellow River is a typical area characterized by redox fluctuations and heavy metal pollution.However,the mobilization behavior of heavy metals in floodplain sediments during redox fluctuations remains poorly understood.In this study,reductive mobilization of Fe and Mn was observed under reducing environments through reduction and dissolution,leading to the subsequent release of adsorbed As.In contrast,the mobilization of U occurred under oxic conditions,as the oxidative state of U(VI)has higher solubility.Furthermore,insignificant effects on the mobilization of Cd,Cu,Pb,and Hg were noticed during redox fluctuations,indicating higher stability of these heavymetals.Additionally,we demonstrated that carbon sources can play a key role in the mobilization of heavy metals in floodplain sediments,amplifying the reductive mobilization of Fe,Mn,As and the oxidative mobilization of U.Our findings contribute to the understanding of the biogeochemical cycling of heavy metal in floodplain sediments of the Yellow River and the factors that control this cycling.

文摘This study investigated the fluctuations in the relationship between the Silk Road Pattern(SRP)and the boreal summer North Atlantic Oscillation(SNAO).The results indicated that the SRP–SNAO relationship was relatively weak during 1958–2022,which was primarily due to fluctuations,particularly the reversal in their relationship since the late 1990s.Using wavelet coherence analysis,the authors identified a strong SRP–SNAO linkage on a 4–8-yr timescale,in particular during the mid-1970s to the early/mid-1990s.This strong linkage is mainly attributable to the intensification and eastward movement of the southern part of the SNAO around the mid/late 1970s,which favored the strong connection between the SNAO and the SRP.Additionally,the interdecadal changes of the atmospheric circulations over the North Atlantic and Eurasia around the mid/late 1970s that resembled the circulation anomalies related to the strong SRP–SNAO linkage,may also have provided a favorable background for the strong connection between the two teleconnections.These findings on the fluctuations in the SRP–SNAO linkage may offer important implications for understanding the impact of the SNAO on the SRP and the variability of the SRP.

文摘Natural grazing land plays a crucial role in extensive ruminant livestock systems,especially in semi-arid tropical regions such as East Nusa Tenggara(ENT),Indonesia.The availability and quality of forage during the dry season present significant challenges.This study aimed to identify variations in grass species composition and fluctuations in forage nutritional content in natural grazing lands of ENT during the dry season(July–October 2024).Sampling was conducted in four sub-districts:two representing lowland zones and two representing highland zones.In each sub-district,four grazing fields were selected,and ten plots were sampled per grazing field,totaling 160 sampling plots.Species identification and nutrient analysis included crude protein,crude fiber,energy content,and proteinenergy ratio.Statistical analyses using ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparison test were performed to evaluate significant differences in nutritional parameters across months and zones.Dominant species identified were Themeda arguens,Heteropogon contortus,Brachiaria decumbens,Ischaemum timorense,Cynodon dactylon,and Pennisetum clandestinum.Results showed significant monthly fluctuations in crude protein and fiber contents(p<0.05),with protein levels decreasing from July(9.31±2.66%)to October(7.53±3.10%).Energy content and protein-energy ratio also varied significantly across the dry season.A monthly shift in dominant grass species composition was observed,influenced by environmental conditions and species adaptability.The protein-energy ratio of forage remained below optimal levels throughout the dry season,potentially limiting livestock productivity.These findings provide important scientific insights for developing climate-resilient feeding strategies and support policy formulation for sustainable tropical livestock farming in semi-arid regions.
文摘The global supply chain turbulence has increased the difficulty of protecting foreign well-known trademarks.Although there are many studies on cross-border trademark rights protection in academia,there is relatively little research on its risk mitigation effectiveness in the context of supply chain fluctuations.Based on case studies of commercial law and data statistics,the study explores the relationship between protection efficiency and market response through legal applicability.Due to the long litigation cycle and uneven law enforcement,there are differences in market regulation,weakening the protection of well-known trademarks and exacerbating supply chain uncertainty.Strengthening international legal framework cooperation and promoting law enforcement linkage can enhance protection effectiveness.In theory,enriching the theory of cross-border trademark protection and expanding research on brand rights protection in the context of global supply chains.In practice,it helps enterprises adjust their trademark layout,avoid legal risks,and improve market competitiveness.Due to the complexity of the legal environment and limitations in data acquisition,future research will strengthen data analysis,promote international cooperation in intelligent supervision,and build a more efficient cross-border well-known trademark protection mechanism.

文摘Photovoltaic(PV)systems are being increasingly implemented in the grid,and their intermittent output fluctuations threaten the stability of the grid,thereby requiring effective power ramp control(PRRC)strategies.In this study,we proposed a power fluctuation identification method to optimize the PRRC strategy.The K-means++cluster based on DTW used in this method,which clusters the historical PV power generation data into power curves corresponding to a specific weather type(sunny,cloudy,and rainy)in a time zone.Subsequently,wavelet decomposition is applied to discretize the power curves with extreme RR overrun to accurately identify the extreme fluctuation time zones.We conducted an analysis using minute-level data from a 100 kW PV plant in Arizona,which demonstrates that the proposed method can effectively identify high-risk periods.Weather patterns within the time zones were quantitatively identified using a weather probability model.A hardware-in-the-loop experimental platform was employed to validate two days of actual power data in Arizona,demonstrating the weather zoning accuracy of the method and the reasonableness of the control.The proposed methodology contributes significantly to PRRC strategy selection and parameter optimization(e.g.,ESS capacity storage allocation and APC power reserveΔP)in different time zones and weather conditions.

文摘Water level fluctuations(WLFs)constituted a dominant factor controlling the structure and function of freshwater ecosystems but the mechanism of WLFs on phytoplankton community structure was still unknown.We investigated the characteristics of phytoplankton community structure in Xiangxi Bay from January 2017 to December 2020.Results indicated water level(WL)of the Three Gorges Reservoir was divided into four distinct stages:the decreasing stage(DS),the low water level stage(LS),the storage stage(SS),and the high water level stage(HS).Notably,Cyanophyta predominated during the LS,with Microcystis sp.being the dominant species.Bacillariophyta was predominant in other three WL stages,with Melosira sp.and Cyclotella sp.as the dominant species.The highest biomass appeared in LS,whereas the lowest appeared in HS.Moreover,alpha diversity appeared to be lower in both HS and LS compared to DS and SS.Redundancy analysis showed WL as the key driver of phytoplankton community.Partial least squares path model analyses demonstrated that WL not only altered chemical factors(path coefficient=-0.62,P<0.01),thereby leading to changes in phytoplankton biomass(path coefficient=0.56,P<0.01),but also changed the physical factors(path coefficient=-0.69,P<0.01)and consequently had an impact on phytoplankton biomass(path coefficient=0.33,P<0.01).Furthermore,WL influenced phytoplankton diversity by altering chemical and physical factors.In conclusion,WL was an important factor influencing phytoplankton community,which implied that reservoir operation was the potential strategy to regulate phytoplankton communities.

文摘We developed an imaging technique combining two-photon computed super-resolution microscopy and suction-based stabilization to achieve the resolution of the single-cell level and organelles in vivo.To accomplish this,a conventional two-photon microscope was equipped with a 3D-printed holders,which stabilize the tissue surface within the focal plane of immersion objectives.Further computational image stabilization and noise reduction were applied,followed by superresolution radial fluctuations(SRRF)analysis,doubling image resolution,and enhancing signal-to-noise ratios for in vivo subcellular process investigation.Stabilization of<1μm was obtained by suction,and<25 nm were achieved by subsequent algorithmic image stabilization.A Mito-Dendra2 mouse model,expressing green fluorescent protein(GFP)in mitochondria,demonstrated the potential of long-term intravital subcellular imaging.In vivo mitochondrial fission and fusion,mitochondrial status migration,and the effects of alcohol consumption(modeled as an alcoholic liver disease)and berberine treatment on hepatocyte mitochondrial dynamics are directly observed intravitally.Suction-based stabilization in two-photon intravital imaging,coupled with computational super-resolution holds promise for advancing in vivo subcellular imaging studies.

文摘Recent various experiments have provided evidence supporting the emergence of loop-current order in kagome metals. Particularly superconductivity in AV_(3)Sb_(5) is significantly enhanced when this charge order is suppressed by pressure or doping. Distinct from magnetic order, loop-current order does not couple directly to spin and thus whether such fluctuations can enhance superconductivity remains elusive. We design a sign problem-free bilayer kagome model coupled to quantum Ising spins through bond currents and perform determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulations to explore single-particle properties and superconductivity arising from 2 × 2 loopcurrent fluctuations. We find that this loop-current order induces intriguing band folding, band broadening,and gap opening around saddle points. Remarkably, our pairing susceptibility analysis identifies a dominant enhancement of superconductivity due to loop-current fluctuations, with the dominant pairing being the chiral d-wave channel. This pairing primarily occurs within the intra-sublattice channel and involves third nearestneighbor sites, attributed to the unique sublattice texture associated with van Hove singularities. We also discuss potential experimental implications for kagome superconductors.

文摘Plants encounter dynamic light environments in natural field conditions,and species differ in their physiological and biochemical mechanisms for acclimating to fluctuating light(FL).The manner in which soybean(Glycine max(L.) Merr.) coordinates multiple physiological adjustments to FL remains poorly understood.This study assessed the effects of FL on soybean morphology and photosynthetic traits by examining changes in photosynthetic gas exchange parameters and chlorophyll(Chl) a fluorescence under alternating high-and low-light conditions.Results indicated that soybeans exposed to FL exhibited reduced dry matter accumulation,smaller and thinner leaves,and a lower Chl a/Chl b levels-characteristics typically associated with plants grown under continuous low-light.Despite these morphological similarities,their photosynthetic gas exchange rates and photosynthetic capacity were maintained at levels comparable to those under steady high light,unlike plants grown under constant low-light.Thus,acclimation to FL is distinct from adaptation to sustained low-light conditions.Correlation analyses revealed that the decline in carbon assimilation under FL primarily stemmed from two factors:the slow recovery of stomatal conductance upon transition to high light and the delayed relaxation of nonphotochemical quenching when light intensity decreased.Therefore,the reduction in carbon assimilation under FL cannot be attributed to low-light phase adjustments but rather reflects a lag in photosynthetic responsiveness to changing light conditions.

文摘[Objective] This study aimed to analyze the temporal-spatial variation of Inner Mongolian grassland degradation during past three decades. [Method] The dis- tribution characteristics of grassland were described by land use types supervised classification with TM/ETM. Then, temporal-spatial changes of grassland coverage were quantified by the mean of maximum vegetation coverage in last 30 years. Lastly, the grassland degradation reasons were explored through statistic analysis between the grassland coverage and precipitation, temperature and grazing intensity. [Result] The grassland degradation index of Inner Mongolia was increased from 1.38 to 1.68, and the smallest was 1.28 in 2005s. Grassland degradation and improve- ment were concurrent after 1980s, but grassland degradation was the major change trend for Inner Mongolia grassland. The area of grassland degradation was enlarged from 18.08×10^4 km2 in 1980s to 22.47×10^4 km2 in 2010s on the whole and distribu- tion range was shifted from central-eastern to west in Inner Mongolia that mainly distributed on Hulun Buir and Xilin Gol grassland in 1980s and Ordos and Alax grassland in 2010s. The grassland area of degradation had a rising trend form 1980s to 1995s, then reduced to 10.8x104 km2 in 2005s, and decreased in 2010s, which mainly speared in the west of Xilin Gol grassland. [Conclusion] Inner Mongo-lian grassland degradation were become more seriously in last 30 years because that temperature, precipitation and graze intensities change, which not performance on decreasing coverage but grassland areas.
文摘A novel method to characterize CMOS process fluctuations in subthreshold current mirrors （SCM） is reported. The proposed model is succinct in methodology and calculation complexity compared with previous statistical models. However,it provides favorable estimations of CMOS process fluctuations on the SCM circuit, which makes it promising for engineering applications. The model statistically abstracts physical parameters, which depend on the IC process, into random variables with certain mean values and standard deviations, while aggregating all the random impacts into a discrete martingale. The correctness of the proposed method is experimentally verified on an SCM circuit implemented in an SMIC 0.18μm CMOS 1P6M mixed signal process with a conversion factor of 100 in an input range from 100pA to lμA. The pro- posed theory successfully predicts - 10% of die-to-die fluctuation measured in the experiment, and also suggests the -lmV of threshold voltage standard deviation over a single die,which meets the process parameters suggested by the design kit from the foundry. The deviations between calculated probabilities and measured data are less than 8%. Meanwhile, pertinent suggestions concerning high fluctuation tolerance subthreshold analog circuit design are also made and discussed.
