Fabrication of a metal organic framework (MOF)-modified Au nanoparticle array for sensitive and stable SERS sensing of paraquat in cereals.

A high-performance Au@MIL-101/PMMA/DT surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate was fabricated for sensitive and stable detection of paraquat by self-assembling metal organic framework-modified Au nanoparticles (Au@MIL-101) on a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) film and then immobilizing the formed substrate onto a duct tape (DT). The highly closely packed Au@MIL-101 array provided intensive hotspots for SERS sensing. The MIL-101 layer modified on the surface of Au nanoparticles could absorb paraquat to the electromagnetic enhancement area of Au nanoparticles.

Real-Time Monitoring Method for Layered Compaction Quality of Loess Subgrade Based on Hydraulic Compactor Reinforcement.

Hydraulic compactor is an efficient reinforcement machine for loess subgrade. However, it is difficult to control the layered compaction quality of the subgrade. This research presents a real-time layered compactness monitoring method for hydraulic compactor reinforcement of subgrade in loess areas.
