Article Synopsis
  • This study evaluated how accurately ventilators deliver tidal volume (VT) under different conditions of respiratory compliance and resistance using a test lung model to mimic normal and diseased lungs.
  • It involved measuring the VT from two commercial ventilators across various resistance and compliance scenarios, testing five different delivered volumes, and assessing how well the ventilators maintained accuracy.
  • Results showed that one ventilator’s VT delivery errors correlated with lung compliance, while the other did not; both ventilators showed discrepancies in how resistance affected VT delivery, particularly at high resistance levels, highlighting potential issues with pressure readings and airflow measurements.

Absolute distance measurements based on femtosecond lasers have been extensively studied for precision metrology and advanced manufacturing, with the advantages of traceability, high speed, and nanometer precision. However, in previous studies, the dual femtosecond laser ranging system showed limitations such as system complexity, lower integration, dead zone problems in single optical path detection, and high requirements for laser coherence. It is challenging to achieve a high degree of integration and large-scale continuous measurements using femtosecond lasers, ineluctably limiting practical applications in engineering fields.

In the realm of aviation, trajectory data play a crucial role in determining the target's flight intentions and guaranteeing flight safety. However, the data collection process can be hindered by noise or signal interruptions, thus diminishing the precision of the data. This paper uses the bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) model to solve the problem by masking the high-precision automatic dependent survey broadcast (ADS-B) trajectory data and estimating the mask position value based on the front and rear trajectory points during BERT model training.

Cullin 3 (CUL3), a member of Cullin-RING ubiquitin ligase family, regulates multiple intracellular pathways. CUL3 expression in peripheral immune cells is highly associated with the development of stroke, while little is known about the mechanism of how CUL3 participates in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. In this study, we showed that CUL3 was obviously upregulated in brain tissues of male rats received middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and reperfusion and oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R)-induced neurons.

Recent findings of two-dimensional ferroelectric (FE) materials have enabled the integration of nonvolatile FE functions into device applications based on van der Waals (vdW) heterojunctions (HJs), resulting in versatile technological advances. In this paper, we report the results of direct probing of the electronic structures of InSe/WSe heterostructures at the single-layer limit, where monolayer (ML)-InSe was found to be either antiferroelectric (AFE, β') or ferroelectric () at sufficiently low temperatures. A general type-II band alignment was revealed for this heterostructure.

Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides feature tightly bound bright excitons at the degenerate valleys, where electron-hole Coulomb exchange interaction strongly couples the valley pseudospin to the momentum of the exciton. Placed on a periodically structured dielectric substrate, the spatial modulation of the Coulomb interaction leads to the formation of exciton Bloch states with real-space valley pseudospin texture displayed in a mesoscopic supercell. We find this spatial valley texture in the exciton Bloch function is pattern locked to the propagation direction, enabling nano-optical excitation of directional exciton flow through the valley selection rule.

For quantum technologies based on single excitons and spins, the deterministic placement and control of a single exciton is a longstanding goal. MoSe-WSe heterostructures host spatially indirect interlayer excitons (IXs) that exhibit highly tunable energies and unique spin-valley physics, making them promising candidates for quantum information processing. Previous IX trapping approaches involving moiré superlattices and nanopillars do not meet the quantum technology requirements of deterministic placement and energy tunability.

Moiré interlayer exciton in transition metal dichalcogenide heterobilayer features a permanent electric dipole that enables the electrostatic control of its flow, and optical dipole that is spatially varying in the moiré landscape. We show the hybridization of moiré interlayer exciton with photons in a planar 2D cavity leads to two types of moiré polaritons that exhibit distinct forms of topological transport phenomena including the spin/valley Hall and polarization Hall effects, which feature remarkable electrical tunability through the control of exciton-cavity detuning by the interlayer bias.

Room-temperature manipulation and processing of information encoded in the electronic valley pseudospin and spin degrees of freedoms lie at the heart of the next technological quantum revolution. In atomically thin layers of transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) with hexagonal lattices, valley-polarized excitations and valley quantum coherence can be generated by simply shining with adequately polarized light. In turn, the polarization states of light can induce topological Hall currents in the absence of an external magnetic field, which underlies the fundamental principle of opto-valleytronics devices.

When quasiparticles move in condensed matters, the texture of their internal quantum structure as a function of position and momentum can give rise to Berry phases that have profound effects on the material's properties. Seminal examples include the anomalous Hall and spin Hall effects from the momentum-space Berry phases in homogeneous crystals. Here, we explore a conjugate form of the electron Berry phase arising from the moiré pattern: the texture of atomic configurations in real space.

We investigate two-photon transitions to the electron-hole scattering continuum in monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides, and identify two contributions to this nonlinear optical process with opposite circularly polarized valley selection rules. In the non-interacting limit, the competition between the two contributions leads to a crossover of the selection rule with the increase of the two-photon energy. With the strong Coulomb interaction between the electron and hole, the two contributions excite electron-hole scattering states in orthogonal angular momentum channels, while the strength of the transition can be substantially enhanced by the interaction.
