The artificial photoelectric synaptic devices integrating optical signal response and data processing functions enable the simulation of the human visual system. However, the optical modulation behavior of photoelectronic synaptic devices is susceptible to interference from sunlight background, significantly hindering their applications in optical modulation. To address this issue, a Ni/AlYN/ITO structure for sunlight-interference-free artificial synaptic memristor was designed and fabricated, and the application in photoelectric modulation was demonstrated.

Article Synopsis
  • Radiation-induced lung injury is a serious complication of radiotherapy for thoracic tumors, and current treatment options are limited.
  • The study investigates the role of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, in mitigating this type of lung injury.
  • Findings suggest that ALDH2 expression decreases in radiation-induced lung injury, and enhancing its activity may help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, indicating its potential as a therapeutic target.

Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed samples from the Yangtze River, Han River, and Liangzi Lake in Wuhan to investigate how disinfection by-products (DBPs) form from chlorine residues in drinking water.
  • The primary DBPs found were trichloromethane (TCM) and trichloroacetic acid (TCAA), with their concentrations influenced by factors like pH, ammonia nitrogen, and oxidative substances.
  • Findings showed that increased chlorine (NaClO) levels and longer reaction times led to higher DBP concentrations, while certain elements like bromine and temperature specifically impacted TCM and TCAA formation, respectively.

The density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) is widely acknowledged as a highly effective and accurate method for solving one-dimensional quantum many-body systems. However, the direct application of DMRG to the study of two-dimensional systems encounters challenges due to the limited entanglement encoded in the underlying wave-function Ansatz, known as the matrix product state. Conversely, Clifford circuits offer a promising avenue for simulating states with substantial entanglement, albeit confined to stabilizer states.

The risk of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) has been paid more attention after the outbreak of COVID-19, threatening the ecology and human health resulted from the massive use of drugs and disinfectants. Wastewater treatment plants are considered the final stop to restrict PPCPs from wide spreading into the environment, but the performance of conventional treatment is limited due to their concentrations and characteristics. Previous studies have shown the unreplaceable capability of moving bed-biofilm reactor (MBBR) as a cost-effective method with layered microbial structure for treating wastewater even with toxic compounds.

We revisit the issue about the magnetization of the 120° order in the spin-1/2 triangular lattice Heisenberg model with density matrix renormalization group (DMRG). The accurate determination of the magnetization of this model is challenging for numerical methods and its value exhibits substantial disparities across various methods. We perform a large-scale DMRG calculation of this model by employing bond dimension as large asD=24000and by studying the system with width as large asLy=12.

Revealing the in-depth structure-property relationship and designing specific capacity electrodes are particularly important for supercapacitors. Despite many efforts made to tune the composition and electronic structure of cobalt oxide for pseudocapacitance, insight into the [CoO] octahedron from the microstructure is still insufficient. Herein, we present a tunable [CoO] octahedron microstructure in LiCoO by a chemical delithiation process.

This study compared the concentrations, types and distributions of sialic acid (SA) in human milk at different stages of the postnatal period with those in a range of infant formulas. Breast milk from mothers of healthy, full-term and exclusively breastfed infants was collected on the 2nd ( 246), 7th ( 135), 30th ( 85) and 90th ( 48) day after birth. The SA profiles of human milk, including their distribution, were analysed and compared with twenty-four different infant formulas.

Gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) have aroused intensive attention for their moderate comprehensive performances in lithium-metal batteries (LMBs). However, GPEs with low elastic moduli of MPa magnitude cannot mechanically regulate the Li deposition, leading to recalcitrant lithium dendrites. Herein, a porous Li La Zr O (LLZO) framework (PLF) is employed as an integrated solid filler to address the intrinsic drawback of GPEs.

Introduction: A hot cell is generally deployed with a teleoperation power manipulator to complete tests, operations, and maintenance. The position and pose of the manipulator are mostly acquired through radiation-resistant video cameras arranged in the hot cell. In this paper, deep learning-based target detection technology is used to establish an experimental platform to test the methods for target detection and pose estimation of teleoperation power manipulators using two cameras.

Conducting polymers with high theoretical capacitance and deformability are among the optimal candidates for compressible supercapacitor electrode materials. However, achieving both mechanical and electrochemical stabilities in a single electrode remains a great challenge. To address this issue, the "Polymer Chainmail" is proposed with reversible deformation capability and enhances stability because of the steric hindrance and charge compensation effect of doped anions.

Magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MHT) is a promising new modality to deal with solid tumors, yet the low magnetic-heat conversion efficacy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) artifacts, easy leakage of magnetic nanoparticles, and thermal resistance are the main obstacles to expand its clinical applications. Herein, a synergistic strategy based on a novel injectable magnetic and ferroptotic hydrogel is proposed to overcome these bottlenecks and boost the antitumor efficacy of MHT. The injectable hydrogel (AAGel) exhibiting a sol-gel transition upon heating is made of arachidonic acid (AA)-modified amphiphilic copolymers.
