W/Mo/Cr Doping Modulates the Negative-Positive Inversion Gas Sensing Behavior of VO(M1).

The anomalous gas sensing behavior has garnered significant attention from researchers, prompting a re-evaluation of the gas sensing theory. This work focuses on inversion gas sensing behavior induced by element doping. W/Mo/Cr-doped VO(M1) samples are synthesized, and their sensing behaviors are investigated.

Novel Selectivity: Target of Gas Sensing Defined by Behavior.

Traditional selectivity of gas sensors determined by the magnitude of the response value has significant limitations. The distinctive inversion sensing behavior not only defies the traditional sensing theory but also provides insight into defining selectivity. Herein, the novel definition of selectivity is established in a study with VO(M1).

One-pot facile synthesis of rod-like BiS particles in deep eutectic solvent and their ppb-level selective HS gas detection.

Bismuth sulfide, BiS, was prepared by a one-pot reaction using various choline chloride-based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as the reaction field. Rod-like particles obtained with acetamide-thioacetamide-based DESs were found to exhibit specifically dominant detection properties for HS gas, and the gas detection mechanism was discussed by adsorption reaction.

Identifying Factors for Predicting Postoperative Segmental Motor Paralysis in Patients Undergoing Anterior Cervical Spine Surgery: A Multicenter Study.

Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Objective: To investigate the incidence of and risk factors for segmental motor paralysis after anterior cervical spine surgery.

Summary Of Background Data: Segmental motor paralysis is a potential complication following both anterior and posterior cervical decompression procedures; however, previous studies investigating risk factors for segmental motor paralysis after anterior cervical spine surgery were limited by small sample sizes.

Er/Tm co-doped ZrYO:Yb phosphors: dual-mode ratiometric thermometry based on near infrared up-conversion/down-shifting photoluminescence.

Ratiometric thermometry is among the emerging applications in phosphor materials. Particularly, the technique of ultrafine-space thermometry has garnered significant attention in bio-imaging. Near-infrared (NIR) light, with its high tissue permeability, serves not only as an excitation source for up-conversion photoluminescence (UCPL) but also induces down-shifting photoluminescence (DSPL) at longer wavelengths.
