These variations have been particularly evident in China, where the SSR substantially declined from the 1960s to the 1990s(dimming), with indications for a trend reversal in the 2000s and a slight recovery(brightening) in recent years. This perspective/review paper will discuss recent updates and remaining challenges regarding our knowledge of the magnitudes, causes, and implications of these variations in SSR worldwide, with a particular emphasis on the developments in China.展开更多

Commercial LIBs have been widely used in portable electronic devices and are now developed for large-scale applications in hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) and stationary distributed power stations. However, due to the physical limits of the materials, the overall performance of today's LIBs does not meet all the requirements for future applications, and the transport problem has been one of the main barriers to further improvement. The electron and Li-ion transport behaviors are important in determining the rate capacity of LIBs.展开更多

In this experiment, the wave surface elevation and velocity beneath the water surface were measured simultaneously to investigate the relation between the wave status and wave induced turbulence. The profile of the turbulent dissipation rate and Reynolds stress were calculated using experimental data. The effect of the wave status on turbulence is investigated with regard to the wind wave, swell, and mixed wave conditions. It was depicted that the turbulence decreased with increasing depth from the water surface and that the turbulence that was induced by a wave with larger wavelength and wave height is much stronger for the same wave status. Finally, we observed that the wind wave is more effective in activating the wave induced turbulence.展开更多

Despite the continuing efforts to improve the wind speed measurements, a bias dependence on wave state persists in all wind algorithms. On the basis of recent evidence that short waves are essentially modulated by local winds and much less affected by wave state, we proposed a physics-based approach to retrieve the wind speed from the dual-frequency difference in terms of the mean square slope of short waves. A collocated dataset of coincident altimeter/buoy measurements were used to develop and validate the approach. Validation against buoy measurements indicates that the approach is almost unbiased and has an overall root mean square error of 1.24 m s-1, which is 5.3% lower than the single-parameter algorithm in operational use(Witter and Chelton, 1991) and 2.4% lower than another dual-frequency approach(Chen et al., 2002). Furthermore, the results indicate that the new approach significantly improves the wave-dependent bias compared to the single-parameter algorithm. The capacity of altimeter to retrieve sea surface wind speed appears to be limited for the case of winds below 3 m s-1. The validity of the approach at high winds needs to be further examined in the future study.展开更多

文摘The intrinsic pressure framework,which treats self-propelling force as an external force,provides a convenient and consistent description of mechanical equilibrium in active matter.However,direct experimental evidence is still lacking.To validate this framework,here we employ a programmable robotic platform,where a single light-controlled wheeled robot travels in an activity landscape.Our experiments quantitatively demonstrate that the intrinsic pressure difference across the activity interface is balanced by the emerged polarization force.This result unambiguously confirms the theoretical predictions,thus validating the intrinsic pressure framework and laying the experimental foundation for the intrinsic pressure-based mechanical description of dry active matter.

文摘The physics of ionic and electrical conduction at electrode materials of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are briefly sum marized here, besides, we review the current research on ionic and electrical conduction in electrode material incorporating experimental and simulation studies. Commercial LIBs have been widely used in portable electronic devices and are now developed for large-scale applications in hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) and stationary distributed power stations. However, due to the physical limits of the materials, the overall performance of today's LIBs does not meet all the requirements for future applications, and the transport problem has been one of the main barriers to further improvement. The electron and Li-ion transport behaviors are important in determining the rate capacity of LIBs.

文摘A laboratory experiment was conducted inside a wind wave tank to investigate the wave induced turbulence. In this experiment, the wave surface elevation and velocity beneath the water surface were measured simultaneously to investigate the relation between the wave status and wave induced turbulence. The profile of the turbulent dissipation rate and Reynolds stress were calculated using experimental data. The effect of the wave status on turbulence is investigated with regard to the wind wave, swell, and mixed wave conditions. It was depicted that the turbulence decreased with increasing depth from the water surface and that the turbulence that was induced by a wave with larger wavelength and wave height is much stronger for the same wave status. Finally, we observed that the wind wave is more effective in activating the wave induced turbulence.

文摘Explicit structure-preserving geometric particle-in-cell(PIC)algorithm in curvilinear orthogonal coordinate systems is developed.The work reported represents a further development of the structure-preserving geometric PIC algorithm achieving the goal of practical applications in magnetic fusion research.The algorithm is constructed by discretizing the field theory for the system of charged particles and electromagnetic field using Whitney forms,discrete exterior calculus,and explicit non-canonical symplectic integration.In addition to the truncated infinitely dimensional symplectic structure,the algorithm preserves exactly many important physical symmetries and conservation laws,such as local energy conservation,gauge symmetry and the corresponding local charge conservation.As a result,the algorithm possesses the long-term accuracy and fidelity required for first-principles-based simulations of the multiscale tokamak physics.The algorithm has been implemented in the Sym PIC code,which is designed for highefficiency massively-parallel PIC simulations in modern clusters.The code has been applied to carry out whole-device 6 D kinetic simulation studies of tokamak physics.A self-consistent kinetic steady state for fusion plasma in the tokamak geometry is numerically found with a predominately diagonal and anisotropic pressure tensor.The state also admits a steady-state subsonic ion flow in the range of 10 km s-1,agreeing with experimental observations and analytical calculations Kinetic ballooning instability in the self-consistent kinetic steady state is simulated.It is shown that high-n ballooning modes have larger growth rates than low-n global modes,and in the nonlinear phase the modes saturate approximately in 5 ion transit times at the 2%level by the E×B flow generated by the instability.These results are consistent with early and recent electromagnetic gyrokinetic simulations.

文摘The altimeter normalized radar cross section(NRCS) has been used to retrieve the sea surface wind speed for decades, and more than a dozen of wind speed retrieval algorithms have been proposed. Despite the continuing efforts to improve the wind speed measurements, a bias dependence on wave state persists in all wind algorithms. On the basis of recent evidence that short waves are essentially modulated by local winds and much less affected by wave state, we proposed a physics-based approach to retrieve the wind speed from the dual-frequency difference in terms of the mean square slope of short waves. A collocated dataset of coincident altimeter/buoy measurements were used to develop and validate the approach. Validation against buoy measurements indicates that the approach is almost unbiased and has an overall root mean square error of 1.24 m s-1, which is 5.3% lower than the single-parameter algorithm in operational use(Witter and Chelton, 1991) and 2.4% lower than another dual-frequency approach(Chen et al., 2002). Furthermore, the results indicate that the new approach significantly improves the wave-dependent bias compared to the single-parameter algorithm. The capacity of altimeter to retrieve sea surface wind speed appears to be limited for the case of winds below 3 m s-1. The validity of the approach at high winds needs to be further examined in the future study.
文摘Background:Insufficient physical activity and prolonged sedentary behavior have emerged as major global public health challenges.Short bouts(≤10 min)of accumulated exercise(SBAE)throughout the day may be a promising strategy to mitigate the adverse effects of prolonged sitting and promote physical activity,ultimately promoting overall health.However,previous ambiguity in defining this concept has resulted in a fragmented and inconsistent evidence base,impeding practical applications,the development of guidelines,and policymaking.The purpose of this study is to establish an operational definition of SBAE by synthesizing systematic reviews and research trials alongside an expert consensus.Additionally,it seeks to evaluate acute and long-term efficacy and feasibility,providing evidence-based recommendations for practice and future research directions.Methods:A literature search was performed across PubMed and Web of Science,followed by systematic screening and summarization of eligible studies based on predefined inclusion criteria.Inclusion criteria encompassed various modes/types of SBAE(bouts lasting≤10 min,performed multiple times daily with≥30 min intervals);both aerobic and resistance exercise were considered.Relevant systematic reviews and research trials were included.Methodological quality,risk of bias,and evidence certainty were assessed.Expert consensus was obtained through a survey to evaluate recommendations and agreement levels on findings.Results:After analyzing 27 systematic reviews,135 research studies,and an expert consensus involving 48 researchers from 11 countries,SBAE is defined as any exercise mode of activity,regardless of intensity,that is accumulated in either continuous or intermittent bouts lasting≤10 min per session(including multiple intermittent sets)that are performed multiple times(≥2 sessions/day)per day,with intervals of≥30 min between bouts or otherwise sufficient time for recovery.When used to interrupt prolonged periods of sedentary time,SBAE mitigates the acute adverse effects of sedentary behavior on more than 10 clinical biomarkers of endocrine,cardiovascular,and brain health/function among adults of diverse ages and conditions.Moreover,SBAE was superior for improving acute glycemic control compared to a single continuous exercise session.As a long-term intervention(average of 11 weeks),SBAE can improve over 20 health outcomes,including peak oxygen uptake,resting blood pressure,and metabolic health.Additionally,SBAE might be more effective than continuous exercise for improving longer-term glycemic control and body composition.Long-term completion rates for SBAE interventions are generally high(95%),with low dropout rates(12%)and high adherence rates even without supervision(85%),and its safety has been preliminarily validated.Conclusion:An operational definition of SBAE is provided along with its classification and acute and long-term efficacy.Practical exercise prescription recommendations and evidence-based strategies for various populations and contexts are provided.Future research should focus on generating high-quality evidence for SBAE in 5 key areas:quantification and monitoring,population-specific responses,optimization of exercise prescriptions,intervention efficacy,and practical implementation.Additionally,addressing policy,environmental,and promotional barriers is crucial for transitioning from expert consensus to public consensus,and for facilitating the application of this strategy in real-world environments.

文摘Thefield of energy storage devices is primarily dominated by lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)due to their mature manufacturing processes and stable performance.However,immature lithium recovery technology cannot stop the continuous increase in the cost of LIBs.Along with the rapid development of electric transportation,it has become inevitable to trigger a new round of competition in alternative energy storage systems.Some monovalent rechargeable metal ion batteries(sodium ion batteries(SIBs)and potassium ion batteries(PIBs),etc.)and multi-valent rechargeable metal-ion batteries(magnesium ion batteries(MIBs),calcium ion batteries(CIBs),zinc ion batteries(ZIBs),and aluminum ion batteries(AIBs),etc.)are potential candidates,which can replace LIBs in some of the scenarios to alleviate the pressure on supply.The cathode material plays a crucial role in determining the battery capacity.Transition metal compounds dominated by layered transition metal oxides as key cathode materials for secondary batteries play an important role in the advancement of various battery energy storage systems.In summary,this manuscript aims to review and summarize the research progress on transition metal compounds used as cathodes in different metal ion batteries,with the aim of providing valuable guidance for the exploration and design of high-performance integrated battery systems.

文摘ZrCoRE(RE denotes rare earth elements)non-evaporable getter films have significant applications in vacuum packaging of micro-electro mechanical system devices because of their excellent gas adsorption performance,low activation temperature and environmental friendliness.The films were deposited using DC magnetron sputtering with argon and krypton gases under various deposition pressures.The effects of sputtering gas type and pressure on the morphology and hydrogen adsorption performance of ZrCoRE films were investigated.Results show that the films prepared in Ar exhibit a relatively dense structure with fewer grain boundaries.The increase in Ar pressure results in more grain boundaries and gap structures in the films.In contrast,films deposited in Kr display a higher density of grain boundaries and cluster structures,and the films have an obvious columnar crystal structure,with numerous interfaces and gaps distributed between the columnar structures,providing more paths for gas diffusion.As Kr pressure increases,the film demonstrates more pronounced continuous columnar structure growth,accompanied by deeper and wider grain boundaries.This structural configuration provides a larger specific surface area,which significantly improves the hydrogen adsorption speed and capacity.Consequently,high Ar and Kr pressures are beneficial to improve the adsorption performance.

文摘Polynyas and their adjacent seasonal ice zones(SIZs)represent the most productive regions in the Southern Ocean,supporting unique food webs that are highly sensitive to climate change.Understanding the dynamics of phytoplankton and the carbon pool in these areas is crucial for assessing the role of the Southern Ocean in global carbon cycling.During the late stage of an algal bloom,seawater samples at 14 stations were collected in the Amundsen Sea Polynya(ASP)and adjacent SIZ.Using nutrients,phytoplankton pigments,organic carbon(OC),remote sensing data,and physicochemical measurements,as well as CHEMTAX model simulations,we investigated the response of the phytoplankton crops,taxonomic composition,and OC pool to environmental factors.Our analyses revealed that hydrodynamic regimes of the polynya,adjacent SIZs and open sea were regulated by the regionally varying intrusion of Circumpolar Deep Water,photosynthetically active radiation and sea ice melt water.The ASP exhibited the highest seasonal nutrient utilization rates[ΔN=(1059±386)mmol/m^(2),ΔP=(50±17)mmol/m^(2) andΔSi=(956±904)mmol/m^(2)],while the open sea had lower rates.The integrated chlorophyll a(Chl a)concentration at depths of 0–200 m ranged from 20.4 mg/m^(2) to 1420.0 mg/m^(2) and peaked in the polynya.In the study area,Haptophytes Phaeocystis antarctica was the dominant functional group(34%±27%),and diatoms acted as a secondary contributor(23%±14%).The major functional group and particulate OC(POC)contributor varied from diatoms(36%±12%)in the open sea to haptophytes(48%±31%)in the polynya waters.Strong light conditions and microelement limitations promoted the dominance of P.antarctica(low Fe forms)dominance in the ASP.The strong correlations between the POC and Chl a depth-integrated concentration suggest that the POC was primarily derived from phytoplankton,while dissolved OC(DOC)was influenced by consumer activity and water mass transport.In addition,the transport of OC in the upper 200 m of the water column within the ASP was quantified,revealing the predominantly westward fluxes for both DOC[9.0 mg/(m^(2)·s)]and POC[7.2 mg/(m^(2)·s)].The latitudinal transport exhibited the northward transport of DOC[8.1 mg/(m^(2)·s)]and southward transport of POC[4.3 mg/(m^(2)·s)]movement.These findings have significant implications for enhancing our understanding of how hydrodynamics influence OC cycling in polynya regions.
文摘Nitrogen doping in chemical vapor deposition-derived ultrananocrystalline diamond(UNCD)films in-creases the electronic conductivity,yet its microstructural effects on electron transport are insufficiently understood.We investigated the formation of nitrogen-induced diaph-ite structures(hybrid diamond-graphite phases)and their role in changing the conductivity.Nitrogen doping in a hy-drogen-rich plasma environment promotes the emergence of unique sp^(3)-sp^(2)bonding interfaces,where diamond grains are covalently integrated with graphitic domains,facilitating a structure-driven electronic transition.High-resolution transmis-sion electron microscopy and selected area electron diffraction reveal five-fold,six-fold and twelve-fold symmetries,along with an atypical{200}crystallographic reflection,confirming diaphite formation in 5%and 10%N-doped UNCD films,while high-er doping levels(15%and 20%)result in extensive graphitization.Raman spectroscopy tracks the evolution of sp^(2)bonding with increasing nitrogen content,while atomic force microscopy and X-ray diffraction indicate a consistent diamond grain size of~8 nm.Cryogenic electronic transport measurements reveal a conductivity increase from 8.72 to 708 S/cm as the nitrogen dop-ing level increases from 5%to 20%,which is attributed to defect-mediated carrier transport and 3D weak localization.The res-ulting conductivity is three orders of magnitude higher than previously reported.These findings establish a direct correlation between diaphite structural polymorphism and tunable electronic properties in nitrogen-doped UNCD films,offering new ways for defect-engineering diamond-based electronic materials.

文摘We introduce a hybrid cavity optomechanical model capable of generating significant genuine tripartite interactions and entanglement among coherent degrees of freedom.However,realizing and controlling such tripartite interactions and their entanglement pose crucial challenges that remain largely unexplored.In this work,we predict a tripartite coupling mechanism within a hybrid quantum system consisting of a vibrating mechanical oscillator,a two-level atom and a singlefrequency cavity field.We specifically propose a mechanism for tripartite and cross-Kerr nonlinear coupling through displacement and squeezing transformations.By adjusting the optical amplitude of the pump light,we can effectively enhance these nonlinear couplings,facilitating the manipulation of entangled and squeezed states.The resulting tripartite genuine entanglement exhibits distinct evolutionary characteristics.Notably,when the pump light amplitude is large,the tripartite entanglement persists for longer time.Additionally,the phonon displays characteristics of both cooling and squeezing.Our study presents a pathway for exploring and exploiting controllable multipartite entanglement,as well as achieving phonon cooling and squeezing with the assistance of a mesoscopic harmonic oscillator.This work underscores the innovative potential of our model in advancing the field of optomechanics and quantum entanglement.

文摘Mesoscale eddies play a central role in the poleward oceanic heat flux in the Southern Ocean.Previous studies have documented changes in the location of temperature fronts in the Southern Ocean,but little attention has been paid to changes in the genesis locations of mesoscale eddies.Here,we provide evidence from three decades of satellite altimetry observations for the heterogeneity of the poleward shift of mesoscale activities,with the largest trend of~0.23°±0.05°(10 yr)^(-1) over the Atlantic sector and a moderate trend of~0.1°±0.03°(10 yr)^(-1) over the Indian sector,but no significant trend in the Pacific sector.The poleward shift of mesoscale eddies is associated with a southward shift of the local westerly winds while being constrained by the major topographies.As the poleward shift of westerly winds is projected to persist,the poleward oceanic heat flux from mesoscale eddies may influence future ice melt.

文摘Infrared-transparent conductors have attracted considerable attention due to their potential applications in electromagnetic shielding,infrared sensors,and photovoltaic devices.However,most known materials face the critical challenge of balancing high infrared transmittance with high electrical conductivity across the broad infrared spectral band(2.5-25μm).While ultra-thin indium tin oxide(ITO)films have been demonstrated to exhibit superior infrared transmittance,their inherent low electrical conductivity necessitates additional enhancement strategies.This study systematically investigates the effects of oxygen vacancy concentration regulation and ultra-thin copper capping layer integration on the infrared optoelectronic properties of 20 nm-thick ITO films.A fundamental trade-off is revealed in ITO films that increased oxygen vacancy content enhances the electrical conductivity while compromising the infrared transmittance.Meanwhile,following the introduction of a Cu capping layer,the Cu/ITO system exhibits opposing dependencies of infrared transmittance and electrical conductivity on the capping layer thickness,with an optimum thickness of~3 nm.Finally,by constructing a Cu(3 nm)/ITO(20 nm)heterostructure with varying oxygen vacancy content,we demonstrate the combined effect of the ultra-thin Cu capping layer and moderate oxygen vacancy content on optimizing the carrier transport network.This configuration simultaneously minimizes surface/interfacial reflection and absorption losses,achieving high infrared transmittance(0.861)and a low sheet resistance of 400 W/sq.Our findings highlight the critical role of the combined effect of metal/oxide heterostructure design and defect engineering in optimizing infrared-transparent conductive properties.

文摘To address the future application requirements of carbon-based material grids for ion thrusters characterized by high thrust,elevated specific impulse,and extended operational life,research was conducted using the LIPS-100 ion thruster developed by the Lanzhou Institute of Physics.This study focused on small-diameter configurations of carbon-carbon composite material grids.Successful development was achieved for both a 10 cm split carbon-carbon planar grid and an integrated carbon-carbon convex grid component.Performance variations among different configurations were investigated through extensive performance tests across the wide-range from 1 to 25 mN,as well as 200 h lifespan assessments under typical conditions at 20 mN.The results indicate that the two configurations of the carbon-carbon grid can achieve stable operation across the broad range of 1-20 mN,with beam current fluctuations ranging from 368 to 379 mA and accel grid current fluctuations between 1.58 and 1.81 mA.Furthermore,the key performance parameters of these grids were comparable to those of the traditional molybdenum grids.Under conditions of high thrust and power,the carbon-carbon grid demonstrated a significant reduction in the intercepted current at the accel grid.In comparison to the split carbon-carbon planar grid,the weight of the integrated carbon-carbon convex composite grid was reduced by 17.5%,the anode voltage decreased by approximately 2.4%-8.6%,and the cathode keeper voltage was reduced by approximately 3.5%-12.4%.It can be concluded that the integrated carbon-carbon convex grid offers distinct advantages in terms of hot-state structural stability,suppression of grid etching rates,and enhancement of thruster discharge efficiency.
