In situ etching of single Au triangular nanoprism (TNP) was successfully monitored by the plasmonic photoluminescence (PL) spectra using single-particle microscopy, which provides clear results to understand the geometric and anisotropic dependence of surface plasmon resonance in Au nanostructures. Various Au nanostructures (TNP, obtuse TNP (O-TNP) and nanodisk) were obtained to synthesize anisotropic Pt-Au as plasmonic photocatalyts for hydrogen generation. Single-particle PL spectra and finite-difference time-domain simulations demonstrate that the Pt-edged Au O-TNP has larger tip area and higher plasmon enhanced electrical field for hot electron transfer and charge separation, leading to more efficient photocatalytic hydrogen generation.

Conservative management of emphysematous esophagitis-a case report.
Mediastinum

Department of Radiology, Inje University Sanggye Paik Hospital, Seoul, Korea.
Background: Emphysematous esophagitis is a very rare disease and there are only a few previous reports in the literature. Previously reported cases have resulted in emphysematous esophagitis following anterior cervical procedures or ingestion of hydrogen peroxide (HP). In this report, we describe a case in which a patient with emphysematous esophagitis accompanied by gastritis without the above predisposing factors was treated with conservative treatment.

The cocrystal (or supramolecular complex) between the Cu(II) complex of salicylic acid and uncoordinated piracetam has been synthesized. Its structure is characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography. Spectroscopic methods confirm the formation of the metal complex, while X-ray crystallography establishes the molecular and crystal structure of the obtained compound.

The strategy of designing efficient room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) emitters based on hydrogen bond interactions has attracted great attention in recent years. However, the regulation mechanism of the hydrogen bond on the RTP property remains unclear, and corresponding theoretical investigations are highly desired. Herein, the structure-property relationship and the internal mechanism of the hydrogen bond effect in regulating the RTP property are studied through the combination of quantum mechanics and molecular mechanics methods (QM/MM) coupled with the thermal vibration correlation function method.

Flexible zinc-air batteries (FZABs) present a promising solution for the next generation of power sources in wearable electronics, owing to their high energy density, cost-effectiveness, and safety. However, solid-state electrolytes for FZABs continue to face challenges related to rapid water loss and low ionic conductivity. In this study, a hydrophilic and stable tetramethylguanidine-modified graphene oxide as an additive, which is incorporated into sodium polyacrylate to develop a high-performance gel polymer electrolyte (GPE), is designed.

The replacement of the thermodynamically unfavorable anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with a more favorable organic oxidation reaction, such as the anodic oxidation of benzylamine, has garnered significant interest in hybrid water electrolyzer cells. This approach promises the production of value-added chemicals alongside hydrogen fuel generation, improving overall energy efficiency. However, achieving high current density for benzylamine oxidation without interference from OER remains a challenge, limiting the practical efficiency of the electrolyzer cell.
