Using of binary waveforms in the fast impedance spectroscopy of biological objects is discussed in the paper. There is shown that the energy of binary waveforms can be concentrated onto selected separate frequencies. We can optimize the binary excitation waveform depending on the shape of frequency response of the impedance under study to maximize the levels of signal components with certain selected frequencies. As a result, we are able to receive maximal amount of information about the properties and behavior of the impedance to be studied. We have designed and prototyped the impedance spectroscopy device operating in the frequency range from 100 mHz to 500 kHz to cover α- and β-regions of the bio-impedance spectrum of time-varying subjects as, for example, fast moving cells in micro-fluidic devices, beating heart and breathing lungs or the whole cardiovascular system.

Due to the global demands on carbon neutralization, CO separation membranes, particularly those based on two-dimensional (2D) materials, have attracted increasing attention. However, recent works have focused on the chemical decoration of membranes to realize the selective transport, leading to the compromised stability in the presence of moisture. Herein, we develop a series of 2D capillaries based on layered double hydroxide (LDH), graphene oxide, and vermiculite to enhance the oversaturation of CO in the confined water for promoting the membrane permselectivity.

Neurodegenerative diseases, characterized by the progressive deterioration of neuronal function and structure, pose significant global public health and economic challenges. Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), a key regulator of neuroplasticity and neuronal survival, has emerged as a critical biomarker for various neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders, including Alzheimer's disease. Traditional diagnostic methods, such as Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) and electrochemiluminescence (ECL) assays, face limitations in terms of sensitivity, stability, reproducibility, and cost-effectiveness.

However, the design of such transceiver coils and coil arrays often faces technical challenges in achieving the required high operating frequency at the ultrahigh fields and sufficient electromagnetic (EM) decoupling between resonant elements. In this work, we propose a high impedance microstrip transmission line resonator (HIMTL) technique that has unique high frequency capability and adequate EM decoupling without the use of dedicated decoupling circuits.

We recently demonstrated molecular plasmons in cyanine dyes for the conversion of photon energy into mechanical energy through a whole-molecule coherent vibronic-driven-action. Here we present a model, a molecular plasmon analogue of molecular orbital theory and of plasmon hybridization in metal nanostructures. This model describes that molecular plasmons can be obtained from the combination or hybridization of elementary molecular fragments, resulting in molecules with hybridized plasmon resonances in the electromagnetic spectrum.

The increasing contamination of water bodies with pharmaceutical pollutants, particularly acetaminophen, necessitates innovative and efficient remediation strategies. This study introduces a novel AgVO@MoO (AV@MoO) nanorod heterostructure synthesized via a hydrothermal process designed to enrich the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants using visible light. The bandgap energy of the optimum AV@MoO-3 heterostructure is 2.
