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While numerous allometric models exist for estimating biomass in trees with single stems,models for multi-stemmed species are scarce.This study presents models for predicting aboveground biomass(AGB)in European hazel(Corylus avellana L.),growing in multi-stemmed shrub form.We measured the size and harvested the biomass of 30 European hazel shrubs,drying and weighing their woody parts and leaves separately.AGB(dry mass)and leaf area models were established using a range of predictors,such as the upper height of the shrub,number of shoots per shrub,canopy projection area,stem base diameter of the thickest stem,and the sum of cross-sectional areas of all stems at the stem base.The latter was the best predictor of AGB,but the most practically useful variables,defined as relatively easy to measure by terrestrial or aerial approaches,were the upper height of the shrub and the canopy projection area.The leaf biomass to AGB ratio decreased with the shrub's height.Specific leaf area of shaded leaves increases with shrub height,but that of leaves at the top of the canopy does not change significantly.Given that the upper shrub height and crown projection of European hazel can be estimated using remote sensing approaches,especially UAV and LIDAR,these two variables appear the most promising for effective measurement of AGB in hazel.
文摘A functional interlayer based on two-dimensional(2D)porous modified vermiculite nanosheets(PVS)was obtained by acid-etching vermiculite nanosheets.The as-obtained 2D porous nanosheets exhibited a high specific surface area of 427 m^(2)·g^(-1)and rich surface active sites,which help restrain polysulfides(LiPSs)through good physi-cal and chemical adsorption,while simultaneously accelerating the nucleation and dissolution kinetics of Li_(2)S,effec-tively suppressing the shuttle effect.The assembled lithium-sulfur batteries(LSBs)employing the PVS-based inter-layer delivered a high initial discharge capacity of 1386 mAh·g^(-1)at 0.1C(167.5 mAh·g^(-1)),long-term cycling stabil-ity,and good rate property.

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Semantic segmentation of eye images is a complex task with important applications in human–computer interaction,cognitive science,and neuroscience.Achieving real-time,accurate,and robust segmentation algorithms is crucial for computationally limited portable devices such as augmented reality and virtual reality.With the rapid advancements in deep learning,many network models have been developed specifically for eye image segmentation.Some methods divide the segmentation process into multiple stages to achieve model parameter miniaturization while enhancing output through post processing techniques to improve segmentation accuracy.These approaches significantly increase the inference time.Other networks adopt more complex encoding and decoding modules to achieve end-to-end output,which requires substantial computation.Therefore,balancing the model’s size,accuracy,and computational complexity is essential.To address these challenges,we propose a lightweight asymmetric UNet architecture and a projection loss function.We utilize ResNet-3 layer blocks to enhance feature extraction efficiency in the encoding stage.In the decoding stage,we employ regular convolutions and skip connections to upscale the feature maps from the latent space to the original image size,balancing the model size and segmentation accuracy.In addition,we leverage the geometric features of the eye region and design a projection loss function to further improve the segmentation accuracy without adding any additional inference computational cost.We validate our approach on the OpenEDS2019 dataset for virtual reality and achieve state-of-the-art performance with 95.33%mean intersection over union(mIoU).Our model has only 0.63M parameters and 350 FPS,which are 68%and 200%of the state-of-the-art model RITNet,respectively.
文摘Thepaper investigates the properties of the Lambert equivalent azimuthal projection,which is often used in normal aspect in atlases for maps of the northern and southern hemispheres.The field of research is theoretical in nature and assumes a mastery of mathematics because it deals with map projections.The transverse aspect is commonly used for eastern and western hemisphere atlas maps.In addition,the Hammer projection was created fromthe transverse aspect of that projection.Therefore,if we want to get to know the Hammer projection better,we must first investigate the Lambert equivalent azimuthal projection in detail.While investigating this projection,it was observed that the equations of the transverse aspect can be represented in several ways.After that,it was necessary to determine the most suitable form of the equations of that projection for the calculation of partial derivatives,which are necessary for determining distortions.The article presents the distribution of factors of local linear scales along the(pseudo)meridians and(pseudo)parallels,and found that in the Lambert equivalent azimuthal projection,there can exist only one point where the distortion is equal to zero.The general case of a normal and transverse Lambert equivalent azimuthal projection has not been observed so far,and that is the new contribution of this article.

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Benefit evaluation of debris flow prevention and control projects was one of the essential contents of debris flow prevention and mitigation work.In order to scientifically and quantitatively evaluate the comprehensive benefit of debris flow prevention and control projects,this study identified nine factors as evaluation indicators from economic,social,and ecological aspects.The projection pursuit(PP) model based on the improved particle swarm optimization(IPSO) algorithm was used to construct a mathematical model to evaluate the benefit of debris flow prevention and control projects.The interpolation method was applied to divide the benefit grades.The debris flow prevention and control projects in Qipan,Taoguan,Chutou,Anjia,and Mozi gullies in Wenchuan County were chosen as typical cases for empirical analysis.The case study revealed that,among the criteria layer indicators,investment per unit of the protected area,investment per unit of the protected population,the amount of water and soil conservation,and reduction rate of accumulation fan had the most significant weights.The social and ecological benefits were found to be the more important in the target layer.The comprehensive benefit of Qipan,Taoguan,Chutou,Anjia,and Mozi gullies was found to be 4.44,4.83,1.95,3,and 2,respectively.The benefit ranking of the five gullies was consistent with their effectiveness in disaster prevention ranking in the flood season of 2019.Therefore,it could prove that the newly-built benefit evaluation model was practical and feasible,and the evaluation results of the sample could be reasonably interpreted,which verified the effectiveness of the methods.

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.

文摘It is a key challenge to prepare two-dimensional diamond(2D-diamond).Herein,we develop a method for synthesizing 2D-diamond by depositing monodisperse tantalum(Ta)atoms onto graphene substrates using a hot-filament chemical vapor deposition setup,followed by annealing treatment under different temperatures at ambient pressure.The results indicate that when the annealing temperature increases from 700℃ to 1000℃,the size of the 2D-diamond found in the samples gradually increases from close to 20 nm to around 30 nm.Meanwhile,the size and number of amorphous carbon spheres and Ta-containing compounds between the graphene layers gradually increase.As the annealing temperature continues to rise to 1100℃,a significant aggregation of Ta-containing compounds is observed in the samples,with no diamond structure detected.This further confirms that monodisperse Ta atoms play a key role in graphene phase transition into 2D-diamond.This study provides a novel method for the ambient-pressure phase transition of graphene into 2D-diamond.

文摘Environmental catalysis has been considered one of the important research topics.Some technologies(e.g.,photocatalysis and electrocatalysis)have been intensively developed with the advance of synthetic technologies of catalytical materials.In 2019,we discussed the development trend of this field,and wrote a roadmap on this topic in Chinese Chemical Letters(30(2019)2065-2088).Nowadays,we discuss it again from a new viewpoint along this road.In this paper,several subtopics are discussed,e.g.,photocatalysis based on titanium dioxide,violet phosphorus,graphitic carbon and covalent organic frameworks,electrocatalysts based on carbon,metal-and covalent-organic framework.Finally,we hope that this roadmap can enrich the development of two-dimensional materials in environmental catalysis with novel understanding,and give useful inspiration to explore new catalysts for practical applications.
文摘Currently,the international economic situation is becoming increasingly complex,and there is significant downward pressure on the global economy.In recent years,China’s infrastructure sector has experienced rapid growth,with the structure of its power engineering business gradually shifting from traditional infrastructure construction to more diversified areas such as production and operation,as well as emergency repairs.As a result,the transformation of mechanized construction in power transmission and transformation projects has become increasingly urgent.This article proposes a post-evaluation model based on game theory to improve comprehensive weighting and fuzzy grey relational projection sorting,which can be used to evaluate the optimal mechanized construction scheme for power transmission and transformation projects.The model begins by considering the entire lifecycle of power transmission and transformation projects.It constructs a post-evaluation index system that covers the planning and design stage,on-site construction stage,operation and maintenance stage,and the decommissioning and disposal stage,with corresponding calculation methods for each index.The fuzzy grey correlation projection sorting method is then employed to evaluate and rank the construction schemes.To validate the model’s effectiveness,a case study of a power transmission and transformation project in a specific region of China is used.The comprehensive benefits of three proposed mechanized construction schemes are evaluated and compared.According to the evaluation results,Scheme 1 is ranked the highest,with a membership degree of 0.870945,excelling in sustainability.These results suggest that the proposed model can effectively evaluate and make decisions regarding the optimal mechanized construction plan for power transmission and transformation projects.

文摘Electron-hole interactions play a crucial role in determining the optoelectronic properties of materials,and in lowdimensional systems this is especially true due to the decrease of screening.In this review,we focus on one unique quantum phase induced by the electron-hole interaction in two-dimensional systems,known as“exciton insulators”(EIs).Although this phase of matter has been studied for more than half a century,suitable platforms for its stable realization remain scarce.We provide an overview of the strategies to realize EIs in accessible materials and structures,along with a discussion on some unique properties of EIs stemming from the band structures of these materials.Additionally,signatures in experiments to distinguish EIs are discussed.
