Addressing the synchronized impact of a novel strontium titanium over copolymerized carbon nitride for proficient solar-driven hydrogen evolution.

Currently, novel technologies are highly prerequisite as an outstanding approach in the field of photocatalytic water splitting (PWS). Previous research has shown that copolymerization technology could improve the photocatalytic performance of pristine carbon nitride (CN) more efficiently. As this technology further allows the charge carrier recombination constraints, due to novel monomer-incorporated highly abundant surface-active sites of metals in polymeric carbon nitride-based heterojunction.

Bi-C monolayer as a promising 2D anode material for Li, Na, and K-ion batteries.

Electrode materials with high electrochemical efficiency are required for battery technology that can be used to store renewable energy. Bismuth (Bi) has shown great potential as an electrode material for metal ion batteries due to its large volumetric capacity and reasonable operating potential. However, the cycling performance deteriorates due to the drastic volume changes that occur during alloying and dealloying.

Recent advancement in conjugated polymers based photocatalytic technology for air pollutants abatement: Cases of CO, NO, and VOCs.

According to World Health Organization (WHO) survey, air pollution has become the major reason of several fatal diseases, which had led to the death of 7 million peoples around the globe. The 9 people out of 10 breathe air, which exceeds WHO recommendations. Several strategies are in practice to reduce the emission of pollutants into the air, and also strict industrial, scientific, and health recommendations to use sustainable green technologies to reduce the emission of contaminants into the air.

Magnetic and Magnetostrictive Behaviors of Laves-Phase Rare-Earth-Transition-Metal Compounds TbDyCo.

The magnetic morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) was first discovered in Laves-phase magnetoelastic system Tb-Dy-Co alloys (PRL 104, 197201 (2010)). However, the composition-dependent and temperature-dependent magnetostrictive behavior for this system, which is crucial to both practical application and the understanding of transitions across the MPB, is still lacking. In this work, the composition-dependence and temperature-dependence of magnetostriction for TbDyCo (x = 0.

Giant Vertical Magnetization Shift Caused by Field-Induced Ferromagnetic Spin Reconfiguration in NiMnGa Alloy.

Vertical magnetization shift (VMS) is a special type of exchange bias effect that may lead to a revolution in future ultrahigh-density magnetic recording technology. However, there are very few reports focusing on the performance of VMS due to the unclear mechanism. In this paper, a giant vertical magnetization shift (M) of 6.

Salient region detection through salient and non-salient dictionaries.

Low-rank representation-based frameworks are becoming popular for the saliency and the object detection because of their easiness and simplicity. These frameworks only need global features to extract the salient objects while the local features are compromised. To deal with this issue, we regularize the low-rank representation through a local graph-regularization and a maximum mean-discrepancy regularization terms.

Appearance-Based Salient Regions Detection Using Side-Specific Dictionaries.

Image saliency detection is a very helpful step in many computer vision-based smart systems to reduce the computational complexity by only focusing on the salient parts of the image. Currently, the image saliency is detected through representation-based generative schemes, as these schemes are helpful for extracting the concise representations of the stimuli and to capture the high-level semantics in visual information with a small number of active coefficients. In this paper, we propose a novel framework for salient region detection that uses appearance-based and regression-based schemes.

Simulating magnetic nanotubes using a chain of ellipsoid-rings model with a magnetization reversal process by fanning rotation.

Recently, magnetic nanotubes have attracted great attention owing to the advantages of tubular geometry. Of all the physical properties of magnetic nanotubes, the magnetic behavior plays a pivotal role in potential applications, particularly in biotechnology. Modeling magnetic nanotubes provides an effective way to determine the geometry dependent magnetic properties.
