It is shown that spatial correlation functions measured for correlated photon pairs at the single-photon level correspond to speckle patterns visible at high intensities. This correspondence is observed for the first time in one experimental setup by using different acquisition modes of an intensified CCD camera in low and high intensity regimes. The behavior of intensity auto- and cross-correlation functions in dependence on pump-beam parameters including power and transverse profile is investigated.

Analysis of the contractile work of a single cardiomyocyte by atomic force microscopy.

Anal Methods

International Research Centre for Nano Handling and Manufacturing of China, Changchun University of Science and Technology, Changchun 130022, China.

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is widely used for the imaging and characterization of biological cells because of its nanoscale spatial resolution and force resolution. However, in the previous studies, the inability to effectively detect the contractile work of cardiomyocytes and the 3D dynamic expressions of their contraction and relaxation behaviors posed significant challenges. Therefore, this work presents a method for the analysis of the contractile work of a single cardiomyocyte by AFM.

Low-threshold anisotropic polychromatic emission from monodisperse quantum dots.

Natl Sci Rev

Institute of Nanoscience and Applications, Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen 518055, China.

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are solution-processable semiconductor nanocrystals with favorable optoelectronic characteristics, one of which is their multi-excitonic behavior that enables broadband polychromatic light generation and amplification from monodisperse QDs. However, the practicality of this has been limited by the difficulty in achieving spatial separation and patterning of different colors as well as the high pumping intensity required to excite the multi-excitonic states. Here, we have addressed these issues by integrating monodisperse QDs in multi-excitonic states into a specially designed cavity, in which the QDs exhibit an anisotropic polychromatic emission (APE) characteristic that allows for tuning the emission from green to red by shifting the observation direction from perpendicular to lateral.

Thrombosis, a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, presents a complex challenge in cardiovascular medicine due to the intricacy of clotting mechanisms in living organisms. Traditional research approaches, including clinical studies and animal models, often yield conflicting results due to the inability to control variables in these complex systems, highlighting the need for more precise investigative tools. This review explores the evolution of thrombosis models, from conventional polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-based microfluidic devices to advanced hydrogel-based systems and cutting-edge 3D bioprinted vascular constructs.

Soil serves as a significant reservoir of selenium (Se) and plays a crucial role for the entry of Se into the food chain. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to gain a deep understanding of the spatial and temporal variation of total soil Se content in China, as well as its influencing factors. This understanding is essential for the rational and efficient utilization of Se resources, the maintenance of ecological balance, and the preservation of human health in the future.

Synthesis of pillar-layered metal-organic frameworks with variable backbones through sequence control.

The properties and functions of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can be tailored by tuning their structure, including their shape, porosity and topology. However, the design and synthesis of complex structures in a predictable manner remains challenging. Here we report the preparation of a series of isomeric pillar-layered MOFs, and we show that their three-dimensional topology can be controlled by altering the layer stacking.
