In order to achieve reliable quantum-information processing results, we need to protect quantum gates along with the qubits from decoherence. Here we demonstrate experimentally on a nitrogen-vacancy system that by using a continuous-wave dynamical decoupling method, we might not only prolong the coherence time by about 20 times but also protect the quantum gates for the duration of the controlling time. This protocol shares the merits of retaining the superiority of prolonging the coherence time and at the same time easily combining with quantum logic tasks. This method can be useful in tasks where the duration of quantum controlling exceeds far beyond the dephasing time.

Long-term labour market evolution shapes agricultural transformation through labour productivity growth and labour market transitions. Despite its importance in agricultural production, labour has been overlooked when exploring the agrifood-water-environment-climate nexus. Here we incorporate evolving labour markets into multisector dynamic modelling to examine their agroeconomic and environmental implications.

This paper focuses on a four-capacitor flexible sensor composed of two electrode materials; also, the decoupling method and sensing performance for multimodal sensing of spatial forces and dynamic humidity are described. In previous work, decoupling of multimode sensors is mostly done by monitoring the types of signals, numerical differences of the same signal, and stacking multiple parameter-sensitive materials. This paper mainly uses the different characteristics of the two electrode materials; in the simulation and experiment of humidity, the moisture-sensitive electrode quickly wets from the outside to the inside and expands, and the contact angle quickly decreases from 58.

Pulsed dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) enhances the nuclear magnetic resonance sensitivity by coherently transferring electron spin polarization to dipolar coupled nuclear spins. Recently, many new pulsed DNP techniques such as NOVEL, TOP, XiX, TPPM, and BEAM have been introduced. Despite significant progress, numerous challenges remain unsolved.

The elemental dynamics and interactions within deadwood profoundly influence carbon sequestration and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. Recent studies have investigated macronutrient cycling during deadwood decay of specific plants, yet the dynamics and interactions of micronutrients, trace elements, and the elementome across species and decay stages remain unexplored. Here, we investigated the elementome and their coupling relationships across five decay stages of downed deadwood (DDW) from four dominant species (Hippophae rhamnoides, Populus purdomii, Abies fabri, and Picea brachytyla) along the Hailuogou Glacier primary successional chronosequence.

While soil moisture has a significant effect on nitrogen (N) cycling, how it influences the dependence of this important biological process on environmental factors is unknown. Specifically, it is unclear how the relationships of net N mineralization (N) and soil moisture vary with soil properties and climates. In turn, how the relationships of N vs.
