Sb dopant triggered highly efficient emission in zero-dimensional organic-inorganic hybrid metal halides.

Hybrid luminescent metal halides have attracted considerable attention for their structural diversity and versatility in photonic applications. Herein, we fabricate Sb doped organic-inorganic hybrid metal halides (DMA)CsInCl (DMA = [CHNHCH]) single crystal. Under ultraviolet light excitation, the crystals yield bright green emission at 550 nm with near-unity photoluminescence quantum efficiency (PLQY), which is attributed to the strong electronegativity and ns lone pairs of Sb dopants.

Hybrid Eu(II)-bromide scintillators with efficient 5d-4f bandgap transition for X-ray imaging.

Luminescent metal halides are attracting growing attention as scintillators for X-ray imaging in safety inspection, medical diagnosis, etc. Here we present brand-new hybrid Eu(II)-bromide scintillators, 1D type [EtN]EuBr·MeOH and 0D type [MeN]EuBr·MeOH, with spin-allowed 5d-4f bandgap transition emission toward simplified carrier transport during scintillation process. The 1D/0D structures with edge/face -sharing [EuBr] octahedra further contribute to lowing bandgaps and enhancing quantum confinement effect, enabling efficient scintillation performance (light yield ~73100 ± 800 Ph MeV, detect limit ~18.

Meeting 24-h movement behavior guidelines is associated with academic engagement, social-emotional functioning in obese/overweight youth.

Background: The 24-h movement behavior (24-HMB) guidelines suggest that the integration of adequate sleep (SL), increased physical activity (PA), and limited screen time (ST) has general health benefits. However, associations of meeting integrated guidelines with academic engagement and social-emotional functioning among obese/overweight youth have yet to be fully examined. Thus, we aimed to investigate the associations between meeting 24-HMB guidelines and the above-presented outcome measures among this unique group.

Rapid synthesis of phosphor-glass composites in seconds based on particle self-stabilization.

Phosphor-glass composites (PGC) are excellent candidates for highly efficient and stable photonic converters; however, their synthesis generally requires harsh procedures and long time, resulting in additional performance loss and energy consumption. Here we develop a rapid synthetic route to PGC within about 10 seconds, which enables uniform dispersion of YAlO:Ce (YAG:Ce) phosphor particles through a particle self-stabilization model in molten tellurite glass. Thanks for good wettability between YAG:Ce micro-particles and tellurite glass melt, it creates an energy barrier of 6.

Population genomics reveals that a missense mutation in EDNRB2 contributes to white plumage color in pigeons.

Plumage color is an important economic trait for breed feature identification and consumer's requirements in pigeons.

White feather color is common for meat and medicinal use.

Cation-defect-induced self-reduction towards efficient mechanoluminescence in Mn-activated perovskites.

Mechanoluminescent (ML) materials have shown promising prospects for various applications, in stress sensing, information anti-counterfeiting and bio stress imaging fields. However, the development of trap-controlled ML materials is still limited, because the trap formation mechanism is not always clear. Here, inspired by a defect-induced Mn → Mn self-reduction process in suitable host crystal structures, a cation vacancy model is creatively proposed to determine the potential trap-controlled ML mechanism.

Energy Gap Linear Superposition of Thermally Coupled Levels toward Enhanced Relative Sensitivity of Ratiometric Thermometry.

Ratiometric luminescence thermometry (RLT) has attracted considerable attention for its non-invasive, fast response, and strong electromagnetic interference resistance; however, improving relative sensitivity () is of great significance. Herein, we propose a design principle to promote by linearly superposing the energy gaps of thermally coupled levels (TCLs) subordinated to luminescence centers. A new fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR') is derived from multiplying the previous FIRs of multi-pair TCLs.

Aldehyde Dehydrogenase Isoform 1 Predicts a Poor Prognosis of Acute Cerebral Infarction.

To investigate the prognostic potential of serum aldehyde dehydrogenase isoform 1 (ALDH1) level in acute cerebral infarction, and the molecular mechanism in mediating neurological deficits, a total of 120 acute cerebral infarction cases within 72 h of onset were retrospectively analyzed. Serum ALDH1 level in them was detected by qRT-PCR. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and Kaplan-Meier curves were depicted for assessing the diagnostic and prognostic potentials of ALDH1 in acute cerebral infarction, respectively.

A Spatial Spectrum Estimation Method for Optimization and Improvement of Resource Allocation and Management of Public Sport and Health Facilities.

With the improvement of people's health awareness, the state increases the construction of public sport facilities, which complicates the allocation and management of resources. The existing spatial spectrum estimation method cannot eliminate the relevant interference data, resulting in duplicate data in the results of resource allocation and management, reducing the accuracy of resource allocation and management. In order to optimize the allocation and management of public sport facilities resources, this study proposes a spatial spectrum estimation method, which is used to deeply tap the potential information in public sport facilities resources and optimize the allocation and management.

Effect of static magnetic field extended supercooling preservation on beef quality.

Supercooling can preserve beef without freezing damage, whereas maintaining the supercooled state is difficult. An innovative method of static magnetic field extended supercooling (SM-ES) was proposed to maintain the non-frozen state of beef. Effect of SM-ES (-4 °C + SMF) compared with refrigerated (4 °C), slow-frozen (-4 °C) and frozen (-18 °C) treatment on beef quality was investigated.
