Achieving high-efficiency solid state emission is essential for practical applications of organic luminescent materials. However, intermolecular interactions generally induce formation of multimeric aggregate excited states with deficient emissive ability, making it extremely challenging to enhance emission in aggregated states. Here we demonstrate a novel strategy of continuously regulating multimeric excitation constituents with a high-pressure technique successfully enhancing the emission in a representative organic charge-transfer material, Laurdan (6-lauroyl-,-dimethyl-2-naphthylamine). The Laurdan crystal exhibits distinct emission enhancement up to 4.1 GPa accompanied by a shift in the emission color from blue to cyan. Under compression, the π-π interplanar distance in Laurdan multimers is reduced, and intermolecular wave function diffusion is demonstrated to be improved simultaneously, which results in local excitation promotion and thus enhanced emission. Our findings not only provide new insights into multimeric excited state emission modulation but also pave the way for the further design of high-performance aggregated luminophores.

A prediction model of the pig house environment based on Bayesian optimization (BO), squeeze and excitation block (SE), convolutional neural network (CNN) and gated recurrent unit (GRU) is proposed to improve the prediction accuracy and animal welfare and take control measures in advance. To ensure the optimal model configuration, the model uses a BO algorithm to fine-tune hyper-parameters, such as the number of GRUs, initial learning rate and L2 normal form regularization factor. The environmental data are fed into the SE-CNN block, which extracts the local features of the data through convolutional operations.

The article provides and discusses details of numerical proceeding for the expansion method to calculate energy positions and wave functions of the localized and resonant electronic states emerging in quantum well-type semiconductor nanostructures because of perturbation of confined states by the Coulomb potential of the hydrogenic impurity center. Effective mass approximation is used. Several excited both resonant and non-resonant states are calculated and classified for the case of a simple rectangular GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well.

The interplay between quantum effects from magnetic frustration, low-dimensionality, spin-orbit coupling, and crystal electric field in rare-earth materials leads to nontrivial ground states with unusual magnetic excitations. Here, we investigate YbTaO, which hosts a buckled square net of Yb ions with = 1/2 moments. The observed Curie-Weiss temperature is about -1 K, implying an antiferromagnetic coupling between the Yb moments.

Biosensors operating in the terahertz (THz) region are gaining substantial interest in biomedical analysis due to their significant potential for high-sensitivity trace-amount solution detection. However, progress in compact, high-sensitivity chips and methods for simple, rapid and trace-level measurements is limited by the spatial resolution of THz waves and their strong absorption in polar solvents. In this work, a compact nonlinear optical crystal (NLOC)-based reflective THz biosensor with a few arrays of asymmetrical meta-atoms was developed.

An anisotropic plasmonic trimer is proposed as an effective spectroscopic amplifier for the maximum signal enhancement of the Hyper-Raman Scattering (HRS) process. The three-particle system is composed of asymmetric Au nanorings arranged collinearly in a J-aggregate configuration and illuminated by a longitudinally polarized light. The optical properties of the considered trimer have been numerically simulated by the Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method.
