- Discussed two methods of exciting the system's normal modes, with results aligning closely to recent experimental data and making predictions for multichain structures under damping.
Article Abstract
We studied equally charged particles, suspended in a complex plasma, which move in a plane and interact with a screened Coulomb potential (Yukawa type) and with an additional external confining parabolic potential in one direction, which makes the system quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D). The normal modes of the system are studied in the presence of dissipation. We also investigated how a perpendicular magnetic field couples the phonon modes with each other. Two different ways of exciting the normal modes are discussed: (1) a uniform excitation of the Q1D lattice, and (2) a local forced excitation of the system in which one particle is driven by, e.g., a laser. Our results are in very good agreement with recent experimental findings on a finite single chain system [Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 255003 (2003)]]. Predictions are made for the normal modes of multichain structures in the presence of damping.

Understanding the ultrafast vibrational relaxation following photoexcitation of molecules in a condensed phase is essential to predict the outcome and improve the efficiency of photoinduced molecular processes. Here, the vibrational decoherence and energy relaxation of a binuclear complex, [Pt2(P2O5H2)4]4- (PtPOP), upon electronic excitation in liquid water and acetonitrile are investigated through direct adiabatic dynamics simulations. A quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) scheme is used where the excited state of the complex is modeled with orbital-optimized density functional calculations while solvent molecules are described using potential energy functions.

This study developed a portable arc iKnife ionization mass spectrometry (AII-MS) technique integrating a surgical knife with low-temperature arc plasma to interact with plant tissues. The thermal energy from the arc plasma induces the sputtering of water-containing plant tissues, leading to the formation of aerosols. These aerosols are then charged by plasma-generated ions, producing charged microdroplets that are ultimately detected by a mass spectrometer.

Creatinine is an essential biomarker for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of renal insufficiency. Although fluorescent methods are powerful tools for creatinine detection, almost all reported fluorescent probes rely on short-wavelength excitation and a single fluorescent signal, making them susceptible to environmental and operational conditions. In this study, a near-infrared excited, highly sensitive, and multi-output signal sensing system was established using upconversion nanoparticles and 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid (DNBA) for synergistic luminescent and colorimetric assay for strong visual detection of creatinine.

The vascular endothelial growth factor receptor is essential for the angiogenesis of cancer. Tumor propagation was effectively suppressed by inhibiting VEGFR-2 activity. As a result, the target quinoxaline-pyrazole hybrids were created in a way that closely resembled the structural characteristics of VEGFR-2 inhibitors.

Silicon carbide (SiC) metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) are a future trend in traction inverters in electric vehicles (EVs), and their thermal safety is crucial. Temperature-sensitive electrical parameters' (TSEPs) indirect detection normally requires additional circuits, which can interfere with the system and increase costs, thereby limiting applications. Therefore, there is still a lack of cost-effective and sensorless thermal monitoring techniques.
