Enhanced UV Light Responsivity in -Oriented 2D Perovskites Realized by Pressure-Induced Ultrafast Exciton Transport.

Two-dimensional (2D) <100>-oriented perovskites exhibit superior optoelectronic properties, offering significant potential in photovoltaic, light-emitting, and photodetection applications. Nevertheless, their enlarged interlayer spacing restricts longitudinal carrier transport, thereby limiting its potential applications. While <110>-oriented 2D perovskites provide a prospective solution with their compact interlayer spacing, their inherent structure, characterized by octahedra tilting, indirectly hinders carrier transport due to the generation of self-trapped excitons (STEs) caused by strong electron-phonon coupling. Here, we adeptly regulate the photoluminescence (PL) from STEs to free excitons (FEs) emission within the 2D <110>-oriented (API)PbBr4 single crystal through structure optimization under pressure treatment. Besides, we observed anisotropic FE transport with an anisotropy ratio of 4.97. The exciton mobility reaches a peak of 93.6 cm2 V-1 s-1 at 2.7 GPa, a value comparable to those of their three-dimensional (3D) counterparts, which is attributed to a reduction in electron-phonon coupling and exciton reduced mass. Additionally, this ultrafast exciton transport significantly enhances UV light responsivity, exhibiting an increase of approximately 5000 times at 2.7 GPa in comparison to ambient conditions. These findings highlight the prospective application of 2D <110>-oriented perovskites in high-performance optoelectronic devices through intrinsic structural modulation.

Mutual coupling reduction of two-port dielectric resonator MIMO antenna using defected ground structure

Abstract This article focuses on reducing mutual coupling between the ports of dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) using defected ground structures (DGSs). The antenna has the dimension of 50 mm × 50 mm × 8.5 mm. The resonating element in the proposed two-port radiator consists of a cylindrical structure of alumina ceramic (ɛr = 9.8). The rectangular-shaped aperture is utilized to excite both of the resonating elements. The resonating ceramic elements acting as radiators are offset-fed to enhance the antenna’s coupling. Combining interdigital-shaped and semicircular arc-shaped DGSs improves isolation between two resonating elements, embodying the structural novelty. The measured operating frequency range of Port-1 and Port-2 is 5.19–6.7 and 5.15–6.68 GHz, resonating at 5.58 and 5.56 GHz, respectively. The measured mutual coupling between the two ports is −35.5 dB. The measured gain for Port-1 is depicted to be 5.5 dB. The presented multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) radiator in this article is an appropriate candidate for WLAN (5.25–5.35, 5.47–5.725, 5.725–5.85, 5.850–5.925 GHz) and WiMAX(5.5 GHz) applications. All the simulated and experimentally observed MIMO parameters of the radiator are discovered to be within optimal bounds.

Brain neurovascular coupling in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: Correlations with disease progression and cognitive impairment.

'Neurovascular coupling' (NVC) alterations, assessing the interplay between local cerebral perfusion and neural activity within a given brain region or network, may reflect neurovascular unit impairment in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The aim was to explore NVC as a correlation between the functional connectivity and cerebral blood flow within the large-scale resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging brain networks in a sample of ALS patients compared to healthy controls (HCs). Forty-eight ALS patients (30 males; mean age 60.64 ± 9.62 years) and 32 HC subjects (14 males; mean age 55.06 ± 16 years) were enrolled and underwent 3 T magnetic resonance imaging. ALS patients were screened by clinical and neuropsychological scales and were retrospectively classified as very fast progressors (VFPs), fast progressors and slow progressors (SPs). Neurovascular coupling reduction within the default mode network (DMN) (p = 0.005) was revealed in ALS patients compared to HCs, observing, for this network, significant NVC differences between VFP and SP groups. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that impaired NVC in the DMN at baseline best discriminated VFPs and SPs (area under the curve 75%). Significant correlations were found between NVC and the executive (r = 0.40, p = 0.01), memory (r = 0.32, p = 0.04), visuospatial ability (r = 0.40, p = 0.01) and non-ALS-specific (r = 0.40, p = 0.01) subscores of the Edinburgh Cognitive and Behavioural ALS Screen. The reduction of brain NVC in the DMN may reflect largely distributed abnormalities of the neurovascular unit. NVC alterations in the DMN could play a role in anticipating a faster clinical progression in ALS patients, aiding patient selection and monitoring during clinical trials.

Vanadium extraction from vanadinite and high carbon v-bearing stone coal by coupling reduction smelting and oxalic acid hydrothermal leaching

Vanadinite and high-carbon vanadium-bearing (V-bearing) stone coals are important vanadium sources widely used in vanadium extraction. The traditional sulfuric acid leaching method for extracting vanadium consumes a large amount of acid, wastes significant amounts of lead and carbon, and causes serious environmental pollution. This study discusses the integration of reduction smelting and oxalic acid hydrothermal leaching for processing vanadinite and high-carbon V-bearing stone coals. Specifically, high-carbon V-bearing stone coal is selectively added to vanadinite to produce coarse lead blocks and V-bearing slag during reduction smelting. Then, the oxalic acid hydrothermal leaching process is employed to extract vanadium from the V-bearing slag. This approach reduces the waste of lead and carbon resources and achieves co-extraction of vanadium from both V-bearing minerals. The results show that when the mass ratio of high-carbon V-bearing stone coal to vanadinite is 25%, and smelting is conducted at 1150°C for 15 min under argon protection, a separation efficiency of 90.67% for metallic lead and V-bearing slag is achieved, the grade of V2O5 in vanadium slag is 12.37%, and the recovery rate is 95.64% by ICP-OES analysis. Furthermore, the leaching rate of vanadium in the V-bearing slag can reach 85.34% via oxalic acid hydrothermal leaching under conditions of a leaching temperature of 100°C, a leaching duration of 30 min, an oxalic acid concentration of 25 wt%, a liquid-to-solid ratio of 10:1 mL/g, and a stirring speed of 500 rpm. The integration of reduction smelting and oxalic acid hydrothermal leaching offers benefits such as improved resource utilization, waste reduction, cost savings, and environmental enhancements. Thus, the findings of this research can serve as references for the vanadium extraction processes of related vanadium-containing minerals.

A-Site Doping Promotes CO2 Activation and Prolongs Charge Carrier Lifetimes in SrTiO3: Insight from Quantum Dynamics.

Using time-dependent density functional theory and nonadiabatic molecular dynamics, we systematically investigated the effect of A-site doping on the CO2 activation and charge carrier lifetimes in SrTiO3(STO). Our simulations revealed that A-site doping significantly enhances the chemical adsorption of CO2 on SrTiO3 surfaces, which is beneficial for promoting CO2 activation. Moreover, we found that A-site doping can efficiently stabilize the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of CO2 near the conduction band minimum of STO, promoting the photogenerated electron transfer from the conduction band of STO to the CO2 LUMO. Importantly, A-site doping causes a significant nonadiabatic coupling reduction and prolongs the charge recombination time by a factor of 1.86 compared to the pristine STO. Our study clarifies the influencing mechanism of A-site doping on CO2 activation and charge carrier lifetimes and suggests important principles for the design of high-performance photocatalytic semiconductors.

Unraveling the formation of Tb/Pd films by coupled reduction as targets for heavy ion-beam irradiation

This study provides insights into the formation of Tb/Pd films produced by electroplating in combination with the so-called coupled reduction technique. The use of 149Tb as an α-emitting radionuclide enabled for the first time the study of the distribution of Tb across the surface and along the thickness of the Pd bulk by means of radiography and α-spectroscopy combined with Monte Carlo simulations of the energy loss of emitted α-particles, respectively. Additionally, scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were employed for surface analysis, whereas X-ray diffraction provided conclusive evidence of the formed crystalline phases. The obtained results indicate the formation of either the intermetallic phase TbPd3 or a Tb/Pd solid solution, depending on the heating time and temperature as well as the local Tb/Pd atomic ratio. These insights pave the way to the production of stable targets for heavy ion-beam irradiations as well as other applications.

Nucleus reuniens: Modulating emotional overgeneralization in peri-adolescents with anxiety.

Anxiety affects 4.4-million children in the USA with an onset between childhood and adolescence, a period marked by neural changes that impact emotions and memory. Negative overgeneralization - or responding similarly to innocuous events that share features with past aversive experiences - is common in anxiety but remains mechanistically underspecified. The nucleus reuniens (RE) has been considered a crucial candidate in the modulation of memory specificity. Our study investigated its activation and functional connectivity with the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and hippocampus (HPC) as neurobiological mechanisms of negative overgeneralization in anxious youth. As part of a secondary data analysis, we examined data from 34 participants between 9 and 14years of age (mean age ± SD, 11.4 ± 2.0years; 16 females) with varying degrees of anxiety severity. During the Study session participants rated images as negative, neutral, and positive. After 12h, participants returned for a Test session, where they performed a memory recognition test with repeated (targets) and similar (lures) images. Labeling negative relative to neutral lures as "old" (false alarms) was our operational definition of negative overgeneralization. Negative relative to neutral false alarmed stimuli displayed elevated RE activation (at Study and Test) and increased functional connectivity with the Cornu Ammonis (CA) 1 (at Test). Elevated anxiety severity was associated with reductions in the RE-mPFC functional coupling for neutral relative to negative stimuli. Exploratory analyses revealed similar patterns in activation and functional connectivity with positive stimuli. Our findings demonstrate the importance of the RE in negative overgeneralization and anxiety.

Structure-function coupling in white matter uncovers the hypoconnectivity in autism spectrum disorder

BackgroundAutism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder associated with alterations in structural and functional coupling in gray matter. However, despite the detectability and modulation of brain signals in white matter, the structure-function coupling in white matter in autism remains less explored.MethodsIn this study, we investigated structural-functional coupling in white matter (WM) regions, by integrating diffusion tensor data that contain fiber orientation information from WM tracts, with functional connectivity tensor data that reflect local functional anisotropy information. Using functional and diffusion magnetic resonance images, we analyzed a cohort of 89 ASD and 63 typically developing (TD) individuals from the Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange II (ABIDE-II). Subsequently, the associations between structural-functional coupling in WM regions and ASD severity symptoms assessed by Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-2 were examined via supervised machine learning in an independent test cohort of 29 ASD individuals. Furthermore, we also compared the performance of multi-model features (i.e. structural-functional coupling) with single-model features (i.e. functional or structural models alone).ResultsIn the discovery cohort (ABIDE-II), individuals with ASD exhibited widespread reductions in structural-functional coupling in WM regions compared to TD individuals, particularly in commissural tracts (e.g. corpus callosum), association tracts (sagittal stratum), and projection tracts (e.g. internal capsule). Notably, supervised machine learning analysis in the independent test cohort revealed a significant correlation between these alterations in structural-functional coupling and ASD severity scores. Furthermore, compared to single-model features, the integration of multi-model features (i.e., structural-functional coupling) performed best in predicting ASD severity scores.ConclusionThis work provides novel evidence for atypical structural-functional coupling in ASD in white matter regions, further refining our understanding of the critical role of WM networks in the pathophysiology of ASD.

Decoupling for microstrip antenna array based on characteristic mode analysis

AbstractA new decoupling method for microstrip antenna arrays has been proposed in this paper, which is based on characteristic mode analysis. This method works by suppressing the nonworking mode that contributes the most to mutual coupling. An eight‐element microstrip antenna array is designed as the reference antenna, and for this antenna, mode suppression is achieved by etching gaps on the patch and adding metal columns between the patch and the ground. The antenna array after the mode suppression is fabricated and measured. The results show that the measured S34 after the mode suppression is below −21 dB, whereas the simulated S34 of the reference antenna array is about −15 dB. This indicated a 7–10.5 dB reduction in coupling across the band. Additionally, the measured ActiveS3 after the mode suppression is still below −11 dB. Besides, the measured and simulated normalized array patterns after the mode suppression agree well at different frequencies.

Coupled reduction in arsenic methylation and methanogenesis with silicate amendment in arsenic-enriched paddy soils

Methanogens play an important role in the demethylation of arsenic. Soil amendments that inhibit methanogens can increase dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), which is responsible for straighthead disease in rice. A decrease in methanogenesis caused by silicate fertilizer may increase DMA concentration in paddy soils and rice grains; the relationship between these two factors and their impacts on DMA concentration remains unclear. We applied silicate fertilizer (2 Mg ha−1) to japonica and indica rice grown on arsenic-spiked soils and found a simultaneous reduction in methane emissions and pore-water DMA concentration, compared to no-silicate fertilization. Gene and transcript copies of mcrA and arsM, as well as dominant methanogens and arsenic-methylating microbes decreased significantly with silicate fertilization. However, the sulfate-reducing bacteria and the gene and transcript copies of dsrB did not change significantly in response to the application of silicate fertilizer to paddy soils. The abundance of arsenic methylating microbes was significantly and positively correlated with the abundance of methanogens, but not with the abundance of sulfate-reducing bacteria. Methylomonas and Methylobacter, which harbor the arsM gene, were suppressed under silicate fertilization, suggesting that they have the potential to methylate As and play a crucial role in reducing pore-water DMA in As-enriched flooded paddy soils. Increasing Fe concentration, soil pH, and Eh value decreased pore-water DMA concentration, while decreasing arsenite concentration, arsM and mcrA gene abundance decreased it. While silicate fertilization decreased arsenite and DMA concentrations in pore-water, it had no significant effect on rice DMA content, but significantly decreased arsenite content. Results reveal that methanogens and arsenic-methylating microbes have a synergistic relationship under silicate fertilization that facilitates a significant reduction in methane emissions and DMA concentration in As-enriched paddy soils.

Glyoxalase 1 overexpression improves neurovascular coupling and limits development of mild cognitive impairment in a mouse model of type 1 diabetes.

Diabetes is associated with cognitive impairment, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Methylglyoxal (MGO), a precursor to advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs), is elevated in diabetes and linked to microvascular dysfunction. In this study, overexpression of the MGO-detoxifying enzyme glyoxalase 1 (Glo1) was used in a mouse model of diabetes to explore whether MGO accumulation in diabetes causes cognitive impairment. Diabetes was induced with streptozotocin. Fasting blood glucose, cognitive function, cerebral blood flow, neurovascular coupling (NVC), Glo1 activity, MGO and AGEs were assessed. In diabetes, MGO-derived hydroimidazolone-1 increased in the cortex, and was decreased in Glo1-overexpressing mice compared to controls. Visuospatial memory was decreased in diabetes, but not in Glo1/diabetes. NVC response time was slightly increased in diabetes, and normalised in the Glo1-overexpressing group. No impact of diabetes or Glo1 overexpression on blood-brain barrier integrity or vascular density was observed. Diabetes induced a mild visuospatial memory impairment and slightly reduced NVC response speed and these effects were mitigated by Glo1. This study shows a link between MGO-related AGE accumulation and cerebrovascular/cognitive functions in diabetes. Modulation of the MGO-Glo1 pathway may be a novel intervention strategy in patients with diabetes who have cerebrovascular complications. KEY POINTS: Diabetes is associated with an increased risk of stroke, cognitive decline, depression and Alzheimer's disease, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Methylglyoxal (MGO), a highly reactive by-product of glycolysis, plays an important role in the development of diabetes-associated microvascular dysfunction in the periphery and is detoxified by the enzyme glyoxalase 1. Diabetes reduced visuospatial memory in mice and slowed the neurovascular coupling response speed, which was improved by overexpression of glyoxalase 1. MGO formation and MGO-derived advanced glycation endproduct (AGE) accumulation in the brain of diabetic mice are associated with a slight reduction in neurovascular coupling and mild cognitive impairment. The endogenous formation of MGO, and the accumulation of MGO-derived AGEs, might be a potential target in reducing the risk of vascular cognitive impairment in people with diabetes.

Compact dual-band enhanced bandwidth 5G mm – wave MIMO dielectric resonator antenna utilizing metallic strips

The overall size of the design is 1.88λo x 0.94λo x 0.20λo. The design procedure is described, and the role of decoupling strips are explained. A prototype is fabricated and measured to validate the proposed design.

O(9, 25) symmetry of heterotic string theory at orders α′, α′2

In a recent study, we have observed that by imposing a truncated T-duality transformation on the circular reduction of the bosonic couplings in the heterotic theory at four- and six-derivative orders, we can calculate these couplings in a particular YM gauge where the YM potential vanishes but its field strength remains non-zero. Importantly, the coupling constants are independent of the gauge choice, so these results are valid across different YM gauge choices.In this work, we explore the cosmological reduction of these couplings when the YM gauge fields belong to the Cartan subalgebra of SO(32) or E8 × E8. We demonstrate that after applying appropriate one-dimensional field redefinitions and total derivative terms, the couplings can be expressed in a proposed O(9, 25)-invariant canonical form, which is the extension of the canonical O(9, 9)-invariant form for just the NS-NS fields proposed by Hohm and Zwiebach. This O(9, 25)-invariant expression is in terms of the trace of the first time derivative of the generalized metric, which encompasses both the YM field and the NS-NS fields.

PIP5K-Ras bistability initiates plasma membrane symmetry breaking to regulate cell polarity and migration.

Symmetry breaking, polarity establishment, and spontaneous cell protrusion formation are fundamental but poorly explained cell behaviors. Here, we demonstrate that a biochemical network, where the mutually inhibitory localization of PIP5K and Ras activities plays a central role, governs these processes. First, in resting cells devoid of cytoskeletal activity, PIP5K is uniformly elevated on the plasma membrane, while Ras activity remains minimal. Symmetry is broken by spontaneous local displacements of PIP5K, coupled with simultaneous activations of Ras and downstream signaling events, including PI3K activation. Second, knockout of PIP5K dramatically increases both the incidence and size of Ras-PI3K activation patches, accompanied by branched F-actin assembly. This leads to enhanced cortical wave formation, increased protrusive activity, and a shift in migration mode. Third, high inducible overexpression of PIP5K virtually eliminates Ras-PI3K signaling, cytoskeletal activity, and cell migration, while acute recruitment of cytosolic PIP5K to the membrane induces contraction and blebs in cancer cells. These arrested phenotypes are reversed by reducing myosin II activity, indicating myosin's involvement in the PIP5K-Ras-centered regulatory network. Remarkably, low inducible overexpression of PIP5K unexpectedly facilitates polarity establishment, highlighting PIP5K as a highly sensitive master regulator of these processes. Simulations of a computational model combining an excitable system, cytoskeletal loops, and dynamic partitioning of PIP5K recreates the experimental observations. Taken together, our results reveal that a bistable, mutually exclusive localization of PIP5K and active Ras on the plasma membrane triggers the initial symmetry breaking. Coupled actomyosin reduction and increased actin polymerization lead to intermittently extended protrusions and, with feedback from the cytoskeleton, self-organizing, complementary gradients of PIP5K versus Ras steepen, raising the threshold of the networks at the rear and lowering it at the front to generate polarity for cell migration.

Disrupted Hippocampal Theta-Gamma Coupling and Spike-Field Coherence Following Experimental Traumatic Brain Injury.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) often results in persistent learning and memory deficits, likely due to disrupted hippocampal circuitry underlying these processes. Precise temporal control of hippocampal neuronal activity is important for memory encoding and retrieval and is supported by oscillations that dynamically organize single unit firing. Using high-density laminar electrophysiology, we discovered a loss of oscillatory power across CA1 lamina, with a profound, layer-specific reduction in theta-gamma phase amplitude coupling in injured rats. Interneurons from injured animals were less strongly entrained to theta and gamma oscillations, suggesting a mechanism for the loss of coupling, while pyramidal cells were entrained to a later phase of theta. During quiet immobility, we report decreased ripple amplitudes from injured animals during sharp-wave ripple events. These results reveal deficits in information encoding and retrieval schemes essential to cognition that likely underlie TBI-associated learning and memory impairments, and elucidate potential targets for future neuromodulation therapies.

Facile Synthesis of FimH Antagonist and Its Analogues: Simple Entry to Complex C-Mannoside Inhibitors of E. coli Adhesion.

Synthesizing FimH antagonists is challenging because of their densely functionalized and stereochemically complex C-mannoside structures, resulting in low yields and lengthy processes. We present an efficient method for synthesizing C-mannoside FimH antagonists by nickel-catalyzed reductive coupling and stereocontrolled reduction, thereby significantly simplifying the process and enabling the synthesis of FimH antagonists in just four steps with an overall yield of 34-50%. This efficient synthesis holds significant potential for the rapid development of analogues targeting the treatment of urinary tract infections or Crohn's disease caused by Escherichia coli (E. coli).

Radiation Behavior of Synthesized LiTi Ferrite Based Microstrip Antenna in X Band

The paper comprehensively explores the development, characteristics, and antenna applications of lithium titanium (LiTi) ferrite. Utilising a solid-state reaction technique, the study examines the substrate’s electrical, magnetic, and structural properties in detail. Additionally, it assesses the far-field radiation patterns of a magnetically-biased LiTi ferrite-based antenna. Key findings point to a noticeable reduction in mutual coupling and radiated power, along with an isotropic redistribution of minor side lobes. Comparative analysis with RT-duroid substrates in X band frequency spectrum highlights the LiTi ferrite-based antenna’s remarkable 62.85 % miniaturization and consistent directivity, along with a superior quality factor. These findings emphasise LiTi ferrite’s potential for compact, high-performance applications in demanding environments. LiTi ferrite’s advantages in miniaturisation and stability position it for specific applications, despite trade-offs in bandwidth, gain, and impedance compared to RT-duroid substrates.

In addition, the third band starts from 9.75 to 10.43 GHz frequency range with BW of 6.74% (0.68 GHz) for the X‐band whereas in fourth band it covers from 13.07 to 15.87 GHz frequency range with BW of 19.38% (2.8 GHz) frequency, which is applicable on Ku‐band application. Moreover, the isolation is &lt; −15 dB in the entire resonating frequency band which is an acceptable limit for reduction of mutual coupling. ECC value is &lt;0.5 in the entire operating band of frequency. The diversity gain of the proposed MIMO antenna is approximately 9.96 dB that shows the antenna exhibits good diversity property. The channel capacity loss value is &lt;0.4 bps/s/Hz in the entire resonating band. In view of all the diversity parameters, the proposed MIMO structure fulfills all the requirements of the MIMO antenna.
