In this paper, a dual-frequency wireless power transfer method is proposed, capable of achieving controllable routing and providing power through magnetic coupling resonance to various positions on a two-dimensional plane. The plane is composed of multiple power supply units with a uniform structure. Every unit has two different resonant states to switch, an activated state to power the receiver and a low-power inactive state adopted to maintain power required for state-switching. By switching and combining units in different states through wireless control circuits, directional wireless transfer of power on the plane can be realized. The circuit of power transfer through coupling is modelled and analysed. Electromagnetic simulations are conducted, followed by implementation and test of an experimental system. Both single-receiver and multiple-receiver situations are applicable in this method. The highest transmission efficiency can reach 93.3% under single receiver situation after coupling 5 units, which reveals satisfactory ability in flexibility and efficiency. Embedded in multiple application scenes, we envision further possibilities of this method such as indoor-device wireless charging and free-moving robot charging systems in factories.

In recent decades, electrokinetic handling of microparticles and biological cells found many applications ranging from biomedical diagnostics to microscale assembly. The integration of electrokinetic handling such as dielectrophoresis (DEP) greatly benefits microfluidic point-of-care systems as many modern assays require cell handling. Compared to traditional pump-driven microfluidics, typically used for DEP applications, centrifugal CD microfluidics provides the ability to consolidate various liquid handling tasks in self-contained discs under the control of a single motor.

Phthalate esters, particularly di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), are widely used plasticizers found in various consumer products, posing significant environmental and health risks due to their endocrine-disrupting effects. In this study, a novel enzyme-free intra-capacitive biofuel cell self-powered sensor (ICBFC-SPS) was developed. The ICBFC-SPS integrated a ternary heterostructure-based capacitive anode and a cathode with a sensing interface into a single-chamber electrolytic cell.

Although the Transformer architecture has established itself as the industry standard for jobs involving natural language processing, it still has few uses in computer vision. In vision, attention is used in conjunction with convolutional networks or to replace individual convolutional network elements while preserving the overall network design. Differences between the two domains, such as significant variations in the scale of visual things and the higher granularity of pixels in images compared to words in the text, make it difficult to transfer Transformer from language to vision.

Global waste generation is projected to reach 3.40 billion tons by 2050, necessitating improved waste sorting for effective recycling and progress toward a circular economy. Achieving this transformation requires higher sorting intensity through intensified processes, increased efficiency, and enhanced yield.

A moving ground-target recognition system can monitor suspicious activities of pedestrians and vehicles in key areas. Currently, most target recognition systems are based on devices such as fiber optics, radar, and vibration sensors. A system based on vibration sensors has the advantages of small size, low power consumption, strong concealment, easy installation, and low power consumption.
