A dispersion-compensating filter for next-generation low-cost analog and digital optical links is developed. In these high-frequency optical channels, even weak dispersion can be detrimental to data encoding (e.g., radar detection). Dispersion-compensating filters must be affordable for these low-cost channels, and they must be reliable for weak dispersion channels. In this paper, we design a dispersion-compensating filter based on three properties of the analog channel: weak modulation depth, a spectrally bounded signal, and a low-dispersion channel. We calculate the fundamental performance limits of the channel with and without the filter and quantify the improvement. Furthermore, numerical simulations are taken to estimate the filter's performances for both pulse amplitude modulation digital channels and for analog ones. The simulations agree with the analytical derivation, and, in both cases, the filter's integration improves the channels' performances considerably.

Dry eye disease is a multifactorial condition characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film. Among the various treatment approaches, the application of ophthalmic oil-in-water nanoemulsions with incorporated anti-inflammatory drugs represents one of the most advanced approaches. However, the liquid nature of nanoemulsions limits their retention time at the ocular surface.

Time-dependent afterglow colored (TDAC) behavior differs from static afterglow by involving wavelength changes, enabling low-cost, high-level encryption and anti-counterfeiting. However, the existing carbon dot (CD)-based TDAC materials lack a clear mechanistic explanation and controllable wavelength changes, significantly hindering the progress of practical applications in this field. In this study, we synthesized CDs composites with customizable tunable TDAC wavelengths across the visible region.

Atomically Dispersed FeMo Dual Sites for Enhanced Electrocatalytic Nitrogen Reduction.

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Fine Chemicals, Research and Development Center of Membrane Science and Technology, School of Chemical Engineering, Dalian University of Technology, Dalian 116024, China.

The electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (eNRR) is an attractive strategy for the green and distributed production of ammonia (NH); however, it suffers from weak N adsorption and a high energy barrier of hydrogenation. Atomically dispersed metal dual-site catalysts with an optimized electronic structure and exceptional catalytic activity are expected to be competent for knotty hydrogenation reactions including the eNRR. Inspired by the bimetallic FeMo cofactor in biological nitrogenase, herein, an atomically dispersed FeMo dual site anchored in nitrogen-doped carbon is proposed to induce a favorable electronic structure and binding energy.
