Meanwhile, the band structure of GeAs exhibits a relatively large dispersion near the valence-band maximum in the Z –V direction while it is rather flat in the Z –Γ direction, which is highly desirable for good thermoelectric performance. The calculated partial charge density distribution also reveals that GeAs possesses anisotropic electrical conductivity. Based on the semi-classical Boltzmann transport theory, the anisotropic transport properties are observed, and the optimal doping concentrations are estimated. The temperature dependence transport properties of p-type GeAs are compared with the experimental data in good agreement, and the theoretical figure-of-merit ZT has been predicted as well.展开更多

Different plant samples require different and adaptive protein extraction protocols. The leaves of medicinal plant, Baphicacanthus cusia （Nees） Bremek are notoriously recalcitrant to common protein extraction methods due to high levels of interfering compounds （especially the secondary metabolites and pigments）. This study was aimed to establish a routine procedure for the proteomic analysis ofB. cusia leaves, and a new protocol for the protein extraction was developed by optimizing trichloroacetic acid （TCA）/ acetone extraction method. The efficiency of this protocol was demonstrated by comparison with 3 published protein extraction methods （chloroform/acetone, Mg/NP-40, Tris-base/acetone）. The results showed that the optimized TCA/ acetone precipitation extraction method gave a relatively high protein yield （9.263 mg g^-1 fresh weight）, high-resolution separation, clear protein profiles, the highest proteins spots （1 31 t protein spots）, and displayed less contamination in 2- DE gels. Therefore, the results suggested that the optimized TCA/acetone method was the most effective among the 4 methods for B. cusia leaves.展开更多

The identification of the structure of sulfur compounds by comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled with the time-of-flight mass spectrometry indicated that cyclo-sulfides, benzothiophenes, dibenzothiophenes, dihydro-benzothiophenes and tetrahydro-dibenzothiophenes were included in straightrun diesel obtained from the Arab medium crude(AM). A total of 259 individual compounds were detected and their molecular structures were identified. The analytical method was approved as an effective way to characterize the composition of sulfur compounds, which reduced the interference of other compounds, facilitated the data presentation and provided more detailed information about molecular composition of sulfur compounds.

文摘The surface transfer doping model has been extensively adopted as a mechanism to account for the generation of hole accumulation layers below hydrogen-terminated diamond(H-diamond)surfaces.To achieve effective surface transfer doping,surface electron acceptor materials with high electron affinity(EA)are required to produce a high density of two-dimensional hole gas(2DHG)on the H-diamond subsurface.We have established ingenious theoretical models to demonstrate that even if these solid materials do not have a high EA value,they remain capable of absorbing electrons from the H-diamond surface by forming a negatively charged interface to act as a surface electron acceptor in the surface transfer doping model.Our calculations,particularly for the local density of states,provide compelling evidence that the effect of an interface with negative charges induces an upward band bending on the H-diamond side.Furthermore,the valence band maximum of the diamond atoms at the interface crosses the Fermi level,giving rise to strong surface transfer p-type doping.These results give a strong theoretical interpretation of the origin of 2DHG on H-diamond surfaces.The proposed guidelines contribute to further improvements in the performance of 2DHG H-diamond field effect transistors.

文摘Protein extraction is a critical step for two-dimensional electrophoresis （2-DE）. Different plant samples require different and adaptive protein extraction protocols. The leaves of medicinal plant, Baphicacanthus cusia （Nees） Bremek are notoriously recalcitrant to common protein extraction methods due to high levels of interfering compounds （especially the secondary metabolites and pigments）. This study was aimed to establish a routine procedure for the proteomic analysis ofB. cusia leaves, and a new protocol for the protein extraction was developed by optimizing trichloroacetic acid （TCA）/ acetone extraction method. The efficiency of this protocol was demonstrated by comparison with 3 published protein extraction methods （chloroform/acetone, Mg/NP-40, Tris-base/acetone）. The results showed that the optimized TCA/ acetone precipitation extraction method gave a relatively high protein yield （9.263 mg g^-1 fresh weight）, high-resolution separation, clear protein profiles, the highest proteins spots （1 31 t protein spots）, and displayed less contamination in 2- DE gels. Therefore, the results suggested that the optimized TCA/acetone method was the most effective among the 4 methods for B. cusia leaves.

文摘This paper investigates ruin,capital injection,and dividends for a two-dimensional risk model.The model posits that surplus levels of insurance companies are governed by a perturbed composite Poisson risk model.This model introduces a dependence between the two surplus levels,present in both the associated perturbations and the claims resulting from common shocks.Critical levels of capital injection and dividends are established for each of the two risks.The surplus levels are observed discretely at fixed intervals,guiding decisions on capital injection,dividends,and ruin at these junctures.This study employs a two-dimensional Fourier cosine series expansion method to approximate the finite time expected discounted operating cost until ruin.The ensuing approximation error is also quantified.The validity and accuracy of the method are corroborated through numerical examples.Furthermore,the research delves into the optimal capital allocation problem.

文摘Lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries with high energy density and capacity have garnered significant research attention among various energy storage devices.However,the shuttle effect of polysulfides(LiPSs)remains a major challenge for their practical application.The design of battery separators has become a key aspect in addressing the challenge.MXenes,a promising two-dimensional(2D)material,offer exceptional conductivity,large surface area,high mechanical strength,and active sites for surface reactions.When assembled into layered films,MXenes form highly tunable two-dimensional channels ranging from a few angstroms to over 1 nm.These nanoconfined channels are instrumental in facilitating lithium-ion transport while effectively impeding the shuttle effect of LiPSs,which are essential for improving the specific capacity and cyclic stability of Li-S batteries.Substantial progress has been made in developing MXenes-based separators for Li-S batteries,yet there remains a research gap in summarizing advancements from the perspective of interlayer engineering.This entails maintaining the 2D nanochannels of layered MXenes-based separators while modulating the physicochemical environment within the MXenes interlayers through targeted modifications.This review highlights advancements in in situ modification of MXenes and their integration with 0D,1D,and 2D materials to construct laminated nanocomposite separators for Li-S batteries.The future development directions of MXenes-based materials in Li-S energy storage devices are also outlined,to drive further advancements in MXenes for Li-S battery separators.

文摘Hydrogenation reactions play crucial roles on chemical synthesis and pollutant elimination.The improvement of the ability to activate reactants and increase of the contact probability between the catalysts and reactants are positive to improve the catalytic performance.Herein,we have reported the design of two-dimensional porous Ni-Ni_(3)N-Ni Mo N heterojunction sheets(2D Mo-Ni based nanosheets)for efficient catalytic hydrogenation of the aromatic nitro-compounds.The heterojunction interfaces provide plentiful active sites to improve the activating ability of the catalyst on the reactants.Additionally,the 2D porous structure facilitates not only the contact of catalytic sites with reactants but also mass transfer and diffusion,both of which are favorable to accelerating the hydrogenation process.As a result,the optimized sample of 2D Mo-Ni sheet exhibits good activity for the hydrogenation of aromatic nitro-compounds by converting 0.2 mmol/L(30 mL)of p-nitrophenol to p-aminophenol within 45 s with good recyclability.The activation energy and the reaction rate at 25℃ is 31.11 k J/mol and 0.0796 s^(-1),respectively,both of which surpass most of reported non-noble metal catalysts and rivals with most noble metal-based catalysts.The combination of late and early transition metals provides an innovative way to obtain outstanding catalysts for the hydrogenation.

文摘Layered transition-metal compounds(LTMCs)feature stacked architectures,strong magnetic anisotropy,and tunable magnetic order,making them promising material platforms for low-power spintronic technologies and for enabling topological functionalities in the post-Moore era.Here we review recent progress on two-dimensional(2D)magnetism in LTMCs,emphasizing material taxonomy,intrinsic magnetic properties,and external-field controls.This review first presents a classification of LTMCs by crystal structure and chemistry—binary halides,chalcogenides,and ternary families(e.g.,MPX_(3),M_(m)X_(n)Te_(k),MnBi_(2)Te_(4))—followed by a summary of their coupling mechanisms,ordering temperatures,and dimensional effects.It then analyzes the modulation of exchange interactions,magnetic anisotropy,and topological states by electric-field gating,strain engineering,and ion intercalation,with representative experimental demonstrations.Notable advances include room-temperature ferromagnetic metals and semiconductors,observation of the quantum anomalous Hall effect(QAHE)in MnBi2Te4,and synergistic control of magnetic-topological states under multiple external stimuli.Persistent challenges involve the limited availability of intrinsic 2D magnetic semiconductors with high Curie temperatures(Tc),incomplete understanding of the microscopic couplings at interfaces and under quantum confinement,and device-level stability.We conclude by outlining opportunities that lie in the integration of multiscale characterization,first-principles theory,and cross-scale fabrication to precisely co-engineer magnetism,topology,and electronic structure,thereby advancing LTMCs toward spintronic and topological-quantum applications.

文摘Titanium dioxide(TiO_(2))has been an important protective ingredient in mineral-based sunscreens since the 1990s.However,traditional TiO_(2)nanoparticle formulations have seen little improvement over the past decades and continue to face persistent challenges related to light transmission,biosafety,and visual appearance.Here,we report the discovery of two-dimensional(2D)TiO_(2),characterized by a micro-sized lateral dimension(~1.6μm)and atomic-scale thickness,which fundamentally resolves these long-standing issues.The 2D structure enables exceptional light management,achieving 80%visible light transparency—rendering it nearly invisible on the skin—while maintaining UV-blocking performance comparable to unmodified rutile TiO_(2)nanoparticles.Its larger lateral size results in a two-orders-of-magnitude reduction in skin penetration(0.96 w/w%),significantly enhancing biosafety.Moreover,the unique layered architecture inherently suppresses the generation of reactive oxygen species(ROS)under sunlight exposure,reducing the ROS generation rate by 50-fold compared to traditional TiO_(2)nanoparticles.Through precise metal element modulation,we further developed the first customizable sunscreen material capable of tuning UV protection ranges and automatically matching diverse skin tones.The 2D TiO_(2)offers a potentially transformative approach to modern sunscreen formulation,combining superior UV protection,enhanced safety and a natural appearance.

文摘Owing to their rolling friction,two-dimensional piston pumps are highly suitable as power components for electro-hydrostatic actuators(EHAs).These pumps are particularly advantageous for applications requiring high efficiency and reliability.However,the ambiguity surrounding the output flow characteristics of individual two-dimensional pumps poses a significant challenge in achieving precise closed-loop control of the EHA positions.To address this issue,this study established a comprehensive numerical model that included gap leakage to analyze the impact of leakage on the output flow characteristics of a two-dimensional piston pump.The validity of the numerical analysis was indirectly confirmed through meticulous measurements of the leakage and volumetric efficiency,ensuring robust results.The research findings indicated that,at lower pump speeds,leakage significantly affected the output flow rate,leading to potential inefficiencies in the system.Conversely,at higher rotational speeds,the impact of leakage was less pronounced,implying that the influence of leakage on the pump outlet flow must be carefully considered and managed for EHAs to perform position servo control.Additionally,the research demonstrates that two-dimensional motion does not have a unique or additional effect on pump leakage,thus simplifying the design considerations.Finally,the study concluded that maintaining an oil-filled leakage environment is beneficial because it helps reduce the impact of leakage and enhances the overall volumetric efficiency of the pump system.
