AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigates the challenges of electromagnetic wave absorption in sulfides due to their changing crystal structures and focuses on enhancing this property using nanosheet-assembled CuS/CN composites with sulfur vacancies.
  • It employs self-assembly synthesis and high-temperature treatment to reveal factors like phase transitions, charge density variations, and defect polarizations that affect conductivity and dielectric properties.
  • The findings offer valuable insights and guidelines for designing crystal structures to create more effective sulfide-based materials for electromagnetic wave absorption.

Article Abstract

Scrutinizing the electromagnetic wave absorption mechanism of sulfides remains a challenge due to the variability of the modulation of the crystal structure of the sulfides. To take advantage of this variability, nanosheet-assembled CuS/CN composites with sulfur vacancies were prepared in this study by self-assembly synthesis and subsequent high-temperature heat treatment. Systematic studies show the phase transition-dependent induced decrease in the conductivity, the defect site-induced difference in the charge density, the weakened vacancy formation of defect polarization loss, and the influence of valence state on electric dipole polarization loss and interfacial polarization loss, making the optimization of the dielectric constant a significant positive effect on the improvement of impedance matching. This work provides a reliable example and theoretical guidance for the crystal structure design for the preparation of a new generation of efficient sulfide-based wave-absorbing materials.

Background: Neuroinflammation is a key component of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) pathology. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) is crucial to microglial involvement in AD, mediating trem2-dependent activation and Disease-Associated Microglia (DAM) polarization. However, GWAS revealed that loss-of-function mutations of its encoding gene are an important risk factor for AD.

Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is a ROCO family member which its mutation is closely related with Parkinson's disease, and LRRK2 is widely involved into the regulation of autophagy, vesicle transport and neuronal proliferation. However, the roles of LRRK2 during mammalian oocyte maturation are still largely unclear. In present study, we disturbed the activity of LRRK2 and showed its essential roles in porcine oocytes.

Alzheimer's disease is characterized by progressive amyloid deposition and cognitive decline, yet the pathological mechanisms and treatments remain elusive. Here we report the therapeutic potential of low-intensity 40 hertz blue light exposure in a 5xFAD mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. Our findings reveal that light treatment prevents memory decline in 4-month-old 5xFAD mice and motivation loss in 14-month-old 5xFAD mice, accompanied by restoration of glial water channel aquaporin-4 polarity, improved brain drainage efficiency, and a reduction in hippocampal lipid accumulation.

With the development of nanotechnology, nano-functional units of different dimensions, morphologies, and sizes exhibit the potential for efficient microwave absorption (MA) performance. However, the multi-unit coupling enhancement mechanism triggered by the alignment and orientation of nano-functional units has been neglected, hindering the further development of microwave absorbing materials (MAMs). In this paper, two typical ZIF-derived nanomaterials are self-assembled into two-dimensional ordered polyhedral superstructures by the simple ice template method.
