π-Extended di-2-picolylamine (DPA)-substituted 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) tolans () were synthesized for testing electronic and regio-effects. The electron-poor CN-tolan () showed clear selectivity for Cd (>>Zn) over other metal ions via turn-on fluorescence, while the electron-rich MeO-tolan () displayed no clear metal selectivity. Furthermore, considering that there was no significant energy difference between the Cd complexes of and , the intended regio-effect (7- vs. 5-substituted effect) did not induce steric hindrance. Thus, the regio-effect is mainly electronic. Considering the above, and constitute a complete showcase in which electronic and regio-effects modulate the metal selectivity. The fluorescence titration of (10 mM) with Cd showed that the limit of detection (LOD) of the Cd-selective was 158 nM in PBS (phosphate-buffered saline) (10 mM, pH 7.2) containing 50% MeOH.

Traditional Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) tasks require an agent to navigate static environments using natural language instructions. However, real-world road conditions such as vehicle movements, traffic signal fluctuations, pedestrian activity, and weather variations are dynamic and continually changing. These factors significantly impact an agent's decision-making ability, underscoring the limitations of current VLN models, which do not accurately reflect the complexities of real-world navigation.

In advanced driver-assistance systems (ADASs), the misalignment of the mounting angle of the automotive radar significantly affects the accuracy of object detection and tracking, impacting system safety and performance. This paper introduces the Automotive Radar Alignment Detection Network (AutoRAD-Net), a novel model that leverages complex-valued convolutional neural network (CV-CNN) to address azimuth misalignment challenges in automotive radars. By utilizing complex-valued inputs, AutoRAD-Net effectively learns the physical properties of the radar data, enabling precise azimuth alignment.

The continuous synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) has been actively studied due to its great potential to produce NPs with reproducible and controllable physicochemical properties. Here, we achieved the high throughput production of nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) using a coaxial turbulent jet mixer with an added heating system. This device, designed for the crossflow of precursor solution and non-solvent, combined with the heating system, efficiently dissolves solid lipids and surfactants.

MEMS acoustic sensors are a type of physical quantity sensor based on MEMS manufacturing technology for detecting sound waves. They utilize various sensitive structures such as thin films, cantilever beams, or cilia to collect acoustic energy, and use certain transduction principles to read out the generated strain, thereby obtaining the targeted acoustic signal's information, such as its intensity, direction, and distribution. Due to their advantages in miniaturization, low power consumption, high precision, high consistency, high repeatability, high reliability, and ease of integration, MEMS acoustic sensors are widely applied in many areas, such as consumer electronics, industrial perception, military equipment, and health monitoring.
