We also review some of the most challenging issues in target fabrication and high repetition rate operation. Finally, we discuss current target supply strategies and future perspectives to establish a sustainable target provision infrastructure for advanced laser facilities.展开更多

However, challenges such as limited charge mobility in organic bulk heterojunction(BHJ) layers, and energy-level mismatch at the perovskite/BHJ interface still sustain. Recent advancements in non-fullerene acceptors(NFAs), interfacial engineering, and emerging materials have improved charge transfer/transport, and overall power conversion efficiency(PCE) of IPOSCs.This review explores key developments in IPOSCs, focusing on low-bandgap materials for near-infrared absorption, energy alignment optimization, and strategies to enhance photocurrent density and device performance. Future innovations in material selection and device architecture will be crucial for further improving the efficiency of IPOSCs, bringing them closer to practical application in next-generation photovoltaic technologies.展开更多

文摘Specific to problems of the existing round bale wrapping machine in China,such as small application scope and failing to satisfy the wrapping demands of round bales of different specifications,a tumbler-type round bale wrapping machine based on wrapping silage with stretch film was designed.By theoretical analysis and preliminary experiments of the corresponding wrapping process,revolving speed of tumbler,speed ratio between tumbler and carrier rollers,and pre-load force of stretch film were determined as experimental factors,while wrapping time and consumption of stretch film per unit mass of round bale were determined as evaluation indexes.Furthermore,quadratic regression orthogonal rotational combination experimental design was adopted to carry out the wrapping experiment.The regression models were set up,and influencing rules of experimental factors on evaluation indexes were also analyzed.The optimal parameter combination scheme was revolving speed of tumbler of 31-32 r/min,speed ratio between tumbler and carrier rollers of 2.6,and pre-load force of stretch film of 20-22 N.Under such a circumstance,the corresponding wrapping time required was 37.7-38.9 s and consumption of stretch film per unit mass of round bale was 3.21-3.46 kg/t.The predicted values and the measured values of evaluation indexes basically coincided with each other and the relative error fell below 5%,which indicated that both the optimized regression models acquired through the wrapping experiment and the relevant parameter optimization results were reliable.To guarantee the quality of rice straw silage,the round bale should be wrapped by no less than five layers of stretch films through the utilization of the tumbler-type round bale wrapping machine.The study results could be used as references for research and development of the round bale wrapping machine.

文摘Investigating structural and hydroxyl group effects in electrooxidation of alcohols to value-added products by solid-acid electrocatalysts is essential for upgrading biomass alcohols.Herein,we report efficient electrocatalytic oxidations of saturated alcohols(C_(1)-C_(6))to selectively form formate using Ni Co hydroxide(Ni Co-OH)derived Ni Co_(2)O_(4)solid-acid electrocatalysts with balanced Lewis acid(LASs)and Brønsted acid sites(BASs).Thermal treatment transforms BASs-rich(89.6%)Ni Co-OH into Ni Co_(2)O_(4)with nearly equal distribution of LASs(53.1%)and BASs(46.9%)which synergistically promote adsorption and activation of OH-and alcohol molecules for enhanced oxidation activity.In contrast,BASs-enriched Ni Co-OH facilitates formation of higher valence metal sites,beneficial for water oxidation.The combined experimental studies and theoretical calculation imply the oxidation ability of C1-C6alcohols increases as increased number of hydroxyl groups and decreased HOMO-LUMO gaps:methanol(C_(1))<ethylene glycol(C_(2))<glycerol(C3)<meso-erythritol(C4)<xylitol(C5)<sorbitol(C6),while the formate selectivity shows the opposite trend from 100 to 80%.This study unveils synergistic roles of LASs and BASs,as well as hydroxyl group effect in electro-upgrading of alcohols using solid-acid electrocatalysts.

文摘A number of laser facilities coming online all over the world promise the capability of high-power laser experiments with shot repetition rates between 1 and 10 Hz. Target availability and technical issues related to the interaction environment could become a bottleneck for the exploitation of such facilities. In this paper, we report on target needs for three different classes of experiments: dynamic compression physics, electron transport and isochoric heating, and laser-driven particle and radiation sources. We also review some of the most challenging issues in target fabrication and high repetition rate operation. Finally, we discuss current target supply strategies and future perspectives to establish a sustainable target provision infrastructure for advanced laser facilities.

文摘The next generation of high-power lasers enables repetition of experiments at orders of magnitude higher frequency than what was possible using the prior generation.Facilities requiring human intervention between laser repetitions need to adapt in order to keep pace with the new laser technology.A distributed networked control system can enable laboratory-wide automation and feedback control loops.These higher-repetition-rate experiments will create enormous quantities of data.A consistent approach to managing data can increase data accessibility,reduce repetitive data-software development and mitigate poorly organized metadata.An opportunity arises to share knowledge of improvements to control and data infrastructure currently being undertaken.We compare platforms and approaches to state-of-the-art control systems and data management at high-power laser facilities,and we illustrate these topics with case studies from our community.

文摘Terahertz biotechnology has been increasingly applied in various biomedical fields and has especially shown great potential for application in brain sciences.In this article,we review the development of terahertz biotechnology and its applications in the field of neuropsychiatry.Available evidence indicates promising prospects for the use of terahertz spectroscopy and terahertz imaging techniques in the diagnosis of amyloid disease,cerebrovascular disease,glioma,psychiatric disease,traumatic brain injury,and myelin deficit.In vitro and animal experiments have also demonstrated the potential therapeutic value of terahertz technology in some neuropsychiatric diseases.Although the precise underlying mechanism of the interactions between terahertz electromagnetic waves and the biosystem is not yet fully understood,the research progress in this field shows great potential for biomedical noninvasive diagnostic and therapeutic applications.However,the biosafety of terahertz radiation requires further exploration regarding its two-sided efficacy in practical applications.This review demonstrates that terahertz biotechnology has the potential to be a promising method in the field of neuropsychiatry based on its unique advantages.

文摘This paper highlights the crucial role of Indonesia’s GNSS receiver network in advancing Equatorial Plasma Bubble(EPB)studies in Southeast and East Asia,as ionospheric irregularities within EPB can disrupt GNSS signals and degrade positioning accuracy.Managed by the Indonesian Geospatial Information Agency(BIG),the Indonesia Continuously Operating Reference Station(Ina-CORS)network comprises over 300 GNSS receivers spanning equatorial to southern low-latitude regions.Ina-CORS is uniquely situated to monitor EPB generation,zonal drift,and dissipation across Southeast Asia.We provide a practical tool for EPB research,by sharing two-dimensional rate of Total Electron Content(TEC)change index(ROTI)derived from this network.We generate ROTI maps with a 10-minute resolution,and samples from May 2024 are publicly available for further scientific research.Two preliminary findings from the ROTI maps of Ina-CORS are noteworthy.First,the Ina-CORS ROTI maps reveal that the irregularities within a broader EPB structure persist longer,increasing the potential for these irregularities to migrate farther eastward.Second,we demonstrate that combined ROTI maps from Ina-CORS and GNSS receivers in East Asia and Australia can be used to monitor the development of ionospheric irregularities in Southeast and East Asia.We have demonstrated the combined ROTI maps to capture the development of ionospheric irregularities in the Southeast/East Asian sector during the G5 Geomagnetic Storm on May 11,2024.We observed simultaneous ionospheric irregularities in Japan and Australia,respectively propagating northwestward and southwestward,before midnight,whereas Southeast Asia’s equatorial and low-latitude regions exhibited irregularities post-midnight.By sharing ROTI maps from Indonesia and integrating them with regional GNSS networks,researchers can conduct comprehensive EPB studies,enhancing the understanding of EPB behavior across Southeast and East Asia and contributing significantly to ionospheric research.

文摘The ability to generate high pressures in a large-volume press(LVP)is crucial for the study of matter under extreme conditions.Here,we have achieved ultrahigh pressures of and 50 GPa,respectively,at room temperature and a high temperature of 1900 K∼60within a millimeter-sized sample volume in a Kawai-type LVP(KLVP)using hard tungsten carbide(WC)and newly designed assem-blies.The introduction of electroconductive polycrystalline boron-doped diamond and dense alumina wrapped with Cu foils into a large conventional cell assembly enables the detection of resistance variations in the Fe_(2)O_(3) pressure standard upon compression.The efficiency of pressure generation in the newly developed cell assembly equipped with conventional ZK10F WC anvils is significantly higher than that of conventional assemblies with some ultrahard or tapered WC anvils.Our study has enabled the routine gener-ation of pressures exceeding 50 GPa within a millimeter-sized sample chamber that have been inaccessible with traditional KLVPs.This advance in high-pressure technology not only breaks a record for pressure generation in traditional KLVPs,but also opens up new avenues for exploration of the properties of the Earth’s deep interior and for the synthesis of novel materials at extreme high pressures.

文摘Research into metamorphism plays a pivotal role in reconstructing the evolution of continent,particularly through the study of ancient rocks that are highly susceptible to metamorphic alterations due to multiple tectonic activities.In the big data era,the establishment of new data platforms and the application of big data methods have become a focus for metamorphic rocks.Significant progress has been made in creating specialized databases,compiling comprehensive datasets,and utilizing data analytics to address complex scientific questions.However,many existing databases are inadequate in meeting the specific requirements of metamorphic research,resulting from a substantial amount of valuable data remaining uncollected.Therefore,constructing new databases that can cope with the development of the data era is necessary.This article provides an extensive review of existing databases related to metamorphic rocks and discusses data-driven studies in this.Accordingly,several crucial factors that need to be taken into consideration in the establishment of specialized metamorphic databases are identified,aiming to leverage data-driven applications to achieve broader scientific objectives in metamorphic research.

文摘Integrated perovskite-organic solar cells(IPOSCs) offer a promising hybrid approach that combines the advantages of perovskite and organic solar cells, enabling efficient photon absorption across a broad spectrum with a simplified architecture. However, challenges such as limited charge mobility in organic bulk heterojunction(BHJ) layers, and energy-level mismatch at the perovskite/BHJ interface still sustain. Recent advancements in non-fullerene acceptors(NFAs), interfacial engineering, and emerging materials have improved charge transfer/transport, and overall power conversion efficiency(PCE) of IPOSCs.This review explores key developments in IPOSCs, focusing on low-bandgap materials for near-infrared absorption, energy alignment optimization, and strategies to enhance photocurrent density and device performance. Future innovations in material selection and device architecture will be crucial for further improving the efficiency of IPOSCs, bringing them closer to practical application in next-generation photovoltaic technologies.
文摘As an advanced 4^(th) generation synchrotron radiation facility,the Shenzhen Innovation Light-source Facility(SILF)storage ring is based on multi-bend achromat(MBA)lattices,enabling one to two orders of magnitude reduction in beam emittance compared to the 3^(rd) generation storage ring.This significantly enhance the radiation brightness and coherence.The multipole magnets of many types for SILF storage ring are under preliminary design,which require high integral field homogeneity.As a result,a dedicated pole tip optimization procedure with high efficiency is developed for quadrupole and sextupole magnets with Opera-2D^(■)python script.The procedure considers also the 3D field effect which makes the optimization more straightforward.In this paper,the design of the quadrupole and sextupole magnets for SILF storage ring is first presented,followed by a detailed description of the implemented pole shape optimization method.

文摘This work demonstrates experimentally the close relation between return currents from relativistic laser-driven target polarization and the quality of the relativistic laser–plasma interaction for laser-driven secondary sources,taking as an example ion acceleration by target normal sheath acceleration.The Pearson linear correlation of maximum return current amplitude and proton spectrum cutoff energy is found to be in the range from~0.70 to 0.94.kA-scale return currents rise in all interaction schemes where targets of any kind are charged by escaping laser-accelerated relativistic electrons.Their precise measurement is demonstrated using an inductive scheme that allows operation at high repetition rates.Thus,return currents can be used as a metrological online tool for the optimization of many laser-driven secondary sources and for diagnosing their stability.In particular,in two parametric studies of laser-driven ion acceleration,we carry out a noninvasive online measurement of return currents in a tape target system irradiated by the 1 PW VEGA-3 laser at Centro de Láseres Pulsados:first the size of the irradiated area is varied at best compression of the laser pulse;second,the pulse duration is varied by means of induced group delay dispersion at best focus.This work paves the way to the development of feedback systems that operate at the high repetition rates of PW-class lasers.

文摘Aegilops speltoides,the closest ancestor of the wheat B subgenome,has been well studied genomically.However,the epigenetic landscape of Ae.speltoides and the effects of epigenetics on its growth and development remain poorly understood.Here,we present a comprehensive multi-omics atlas of leaves and roots in Ae.speltoides,encompassing transcriptome,DNA methylation,histone modifications,and small RNA profiling.Divergent DNA methylation levels were detected between leaves and roots,and were associated with differences in accumulated 24-nt siRNAs.DNA methylation changes in promoters and gene bodies showed strong connections with altered expression between leaves and roots.Transcriptional regulatory networks(TRN)reconstructed between leaves and roots were driven by tissue-specific TF families.DNA methylation and histone modification act together as switches that shape root and leaf morphogenesis by modulating the binding of tissue-specific TFs to their target genes.The TRNs in leaves and roots reshaped during wheat polyploidization were associated with alterations in epigenetic modi-fications.Collectively,these results not only shed light on the critical contribution of epigenetic regulation in the morphogenesis of leaves and roots in Ae.speltoides but also provide new insights for future investigations into the complex interplay of genetic and epigenetic factors in the developmental biology of common wheat.

文摘Viruses are significant pathogens causing severe plant infections and crop losses globally.The resistance mechanisms of rice to viral diseases,particularly Southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus(SRBSDV),remain poorly understood.In this study,we assessed SRBSDV susceptibility in 20 Xian/indica(XI)and 20 Geng/japonica(GJ)rice varieties.XI-1B accessions in the Xian subgroup displayed higher resistance than GJ accessions.Comparative transcriptome analysis revealed changes in processes like oxidoreductase activity,jasmonic acid(JA)metabolism,and stress response.JA sensitivity assays further linked antiviral defense to the JA pathway.These findings highlight a JA-mediated resistance mechanism in rice and offer insights for breeding SRBSDV-resistant varieties.
文摘Thermal quenching(TQ)at elevated temperature is a major factor affecting the luminescent intensity and efficiency of phosphors.Improving the thermal stability of phosphors and weakening the TQ effect are of significance for the high-quality illumination of phosphor-converted WLEDs.Here,a novel red-emitting phosphor K_(2)Zn(PO_(3))_(4)∶Mn^(2+)is synthesized by standard high temperature solid state reaction in ambient atmosphere,which is a new member of self-reduction system.An effective synthesis strategy is proposed to optimize its photoluminescent performances.Combined with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy,oxygen vacancy defects introduced by Mn doping are proved to play an important role in the transition of Mn^(4+)→Mn^(2+).Thermoluminescence analysis reveals that the distribution of trap levels,especially the deep ones,is effectively regulated by the controllable crystallization and significantly affect the thermal stability of phosphors.Then a defect-assisted model is proposed to address the inner mechanism of the phenomenon.The carriers trapped by deep trap levels can be released under the high-temperature stimulus,which return back to the luminescent centers and participate in the radiative recombination to improve thermal stability.This study provides a new crystallographic idea and theoretical support for obtaining luminescent materials with high thermal stability.
