Adsorption of Atomic Hydrogen on Hydrogen Boride Sheets Studied by Photoelectron Spectroscopy.

Hydrogen boride (HB) sheets are emerging as a promising two-dimensional (2D) boron material, with potential applications as unique electrodes, substrates, and hydrogen storage materials. The 2D layered structure of HB was successfully synthesized using an ion-exchange method. The chemical bonding and structure of the HB sheets were investigated using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), respectively.

The Anastomotic Angle of Hemodialysis Arteriovenous Fistula Is Associated With Flow Disturbance at the Venous Stenosis Location on Angiography.

The juxta-anastomotic stenosis of an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is a significant clinical problem in hemodialysis patients with no effective treatment. Previous studies of AV anastomotic angles on hemodynamics and vascular wall injury were based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations using standardized AVF geometry, not the real-world patient images. The present study is the first CFD study to use angiographic images with patient-specific outcome information, i.

1% defect enriches MoS quantum dot: catalysis and blue luminescence.

Defects in solids are typically recognized as unfavorable, leading to degradation of the structure and properties of the material. However, defects occasionally provide extraordinary benefits as the active sites of catalysts and chemical reactions, and can result in the creation of new electronic states. In particular, a low-dimensional material can become a defect-rich material due to the unique ratio of surface area to volume, giving many dangling bonds.
