Serving as neuromorphic hardware accelerators, memristors play a crucial role in large-scale neuromorphic computing. Herein, two-terminal memristors utilizing amorphous indium-gallium-zinc oxide (a-IGZO) are fabricated through room-temperature sputtering. The electrical characteristics of these memristors are effectively modulated by varying the oxygen flow during the deposition process.

Background: This study aimed to analyze the efficacy of resilience-promoting interventions among adolescents and youth aged 10-24 years with any type of diabetes.

Methods: A systematic literature search was performed using the PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, and PsycINFO databases from inception to May 25, 2022. The Cochrane risk of bias tool (version 2) was used to assess the quality of the included studies.

Metal-organic framework (MOFs), also known as porous coordination polymers (PCPs), is a new kind of crystalline porous materials, which has received extensive attention in the past few decades. As a new type of sensing material, MOFs stand out from many other traditional fluorescence sensors because of its crystal characteristics, structural diversity, stable porosity and adjustable functional characteristics. In this work, the bi-functional building block containing aromatic carboxylic acid and triazole moieties, namely 3-(1H-1,3,4-triazol-1-yl) benzoic acid, was selected as the linker to synthesize {[Cd(µ-L)⋅I} (1, HL = 3-(1H-1,3,4-triazol-1-yl)benzoic acid) by hydrothermal method with transition Cd metal centers.

In industry, over usage of Cu and Al will lead to toxic wastewater, which further to give serious pollution for the environment. On the other hand, L-lysine can enhance serotonin release in the amygdala, with subsequent changes in psychobehavioral responses to stress. Therefore it is the urgent problem to design a method for detecting the amount of Cu, Al, and L-lysine.

l-histidine acts as a semi-essential amino acid, which is medically used in the treatment of gastric ulcer, anemia, allergies. However, the overuse of l-histidine will result in terrible damage to heart disease, slow growth of animals and water pollution in the environment. In addition, Cu pollution is common environmental pollution in the industry.

Through powerful solvothermal and facile ultrasonic synthetic strategies, two unique cluster-based lanthanide Lu and Y nanoporous metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have been successfully prepared, namely, {[Lu(L)]·2DMF·HO} () and [Y(L)(DMF)] () (HL = terphenyl-3,4'',5-tricarboxylic acid). In addition, both the morphologies and nanosizes of and materials also have been deliberately tuned by adjustable ultrasonic conditions including irradiation time (40, 60, and 80 min) and power (70 w, 100 w). Currently, it is noted that the abuse of antibiotics such as ornidazole and ronidazole leads to great damage to human health, and therefore the development of highly effective and facile detection methods for ornidazole and ronidazole is quite important.

A mini-column packed with 1 mg electrospun polystyrene nanofibers (about 200 approximately 400 nm in diameter) was designed for simple, fast extraction of drugs, diazepam and its major metabolite, N-desmethyldiazepam for the analysis of them in human and dog plasma. Ttrezodone was selected as internal standard. The drugs adsorbed on the solid phase could be desorpted with 50 microl of the methanol and then monitored by liquid chromatography coupled to an ultraviolet detector.
