The performances of 1–3 piezocomposite materials under various poling conditions were compared and analysed. The dielectric , piezoelectric , and electromechanical properties of 1–3 piezocomposite materials were studied with variations in the electric field amplitude ( E p ), poling frequency ( f ), and number of cycles ( C ). It was found that the piezoelectric coefficient ( d 33 ), free dielectric constant ( ε 33 T / ε 0 ), and electromechanical coupling factor ( k t ) of 1–3 piezocomposite materials exhibit an increase of 21.4%, 13%, and 10.7%, respectively, under the optimum alternating current poling (ACP) condition ( f = 1.25 Hz, E p = 2 kV/mm, C = 16), compared with that of the samples poled using the direct current polarisation (DCP) method. The studies of the domain pattern indicate that the performance enhancement originates from the remarkable regularly striped domain structure and high domain wall density in ACP-poled samples. Our results suggest that the ACP method is effective in enhancing the performance of composite piezoelectric materials , which possess great benefits and potential for application in acoustic/medical transducers.

Carboxyl end-functionalized poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT-COOH) was grafted chemically with CdSe nanocrystals (NCs) by a phosphine-free method. The particle quality of P3HT-COOH/CdSe nanocomposites was better than that of P3HT/CdSe nanocomposites, which were synthesized using the same method. Nanocrystals with controllable particle size exhibited a wurtzite crystalline structure and showed excellent nanocrystal dispersion in the P3HT-COOH matrix. Photoluminescence (PL) characterization performed on nanocomposites suggested the efficient charge transfer at the P3HT-COOH/CdSe interface. This approach based on the phosphine-free method is not only environmentally friendly but also highly efficient.

The doping of impurity ions into perovskite lattices has been scrupulously developed as a promising method to stabilize the crystallographic structure and modulate the optoelectronic properties. However, the photoluminescence (PL) of Fe2+-doped mixed halide perovskite NCs is still relatively unexplored. In this work, the Fe2+-doped CsPb(ClxBr1−x)3nanocrystals (NCs) are prepared by a hot injection method. In addition, their optical absorption, photoluminescence (PL), PL lifetimes, and photostabilities are compared with those of undoped CsPb(Br1−xClx)3NCs. We find the Fe2+doping results in the redshift of the absorption edge and PL. Moreover, the full width at half maximums (FWHMs) are decreased, PL quantum yields (QYs) are improved, and PL lifetimes are extended, suggesting the defect density is reduced by the Fe2+doping. Moreover, the photostability is significantly improved after the Fe2+doping. Therefore, this work reveals that Fe2+doping is a very promising approach to modulate the optical properties of mixed halide perovskite NCs.

To meet the escalating demands for high-performance piezoelectric materials in fields such as modern medical diagnostics, precision manufacturing, etc., we developed a ternary 0.555Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.145PbZrO3-0.30PbTiO3 (PNN-PZ-PT) piezoelectric ceramic located at the tricritical point of rhombohedral, tetragonal and pseudocubic phases. This ceramic, with coexistence of multiple ferroelectric phases, demonstrates an ultrahigh piezoelectric coefficient d33 of 1190 picocoulombs per newton (pC/N) and a large relative dielectric constant εr of 9900. Analysis of the domain structure reveals irregular maze-like nanodomains with strong local disorder. These nanodomain structures exhibit excellent local piezoelectric response and polarization switching characteristics, thereby enhancing the alignment of polarization vectors during poling and ensuring the high stability after being poled. The tricritical point composition with disordered nanodomains can significantly enhance the contribution of polarization to macroscopic piezoelectric properties, offering a promising approach for developing ceramics with superior piezoelectricity.

Vision-based robotic triaxial tactile sensing provides superior spatial resolution and rich multimodal data. However, employing rigid CMOS imagers suffers from limitations in mechanical flexibility and large-area scalability. Here we present a large-area ultraflexible photoelectrical impedance tomography (PIT)-based imager that achieves high-fidelity triaxial tactile sensing. The 5-μm-thick PIT imager incorporates a quantum dots/metal-oxide heterojunction layer with 16 peripheral electrodes, significantly reducing interconnects complexity (pixel-to-interconnect ratio >80). The device exhibits a photo-to-dark-current ratio exceeding 10⁴ under ultraviolet illumination, resolves spatiotemporal features as fine as 1.5 mm, and can simultaneously image up to five occluded regions. By integrating a thin light-scattering porous rubber and flexible LEDs, triaxial force decoding is achieved through Gaussian photocurrent analysis. The system achieves over a dynamic range of 80 kPa with a normal force sensitivity of 0.04 kPa⁻¹, a shear displacement resolution of 0.17 μm kPa⁻¹, and a topological recognition accuracy of 96.5%. We anticipate that this technology will enable advanced applications in industrial and humanoid robotics, medical and rehabilitation robotics, and wearable health monitoring and human–machine interaction systems.

All-inorganic CsPbX3 (X = I, Br, Cl) perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) have attracted much attention in clean energy fields such as solar cells and light-emitting diodes due to their excellent opto-electric properties. Herein, we extended the application of perovskite NCs to the photocatalytic degradation field. We demonstrated a facile strategy for highly efficient and feasible synthesis of pure CsPb(Br1–xClx)3 NCs and CsPb(Br1–xClx)3-Au nanoheterostructures. The photocatalytic performance of CsPb(Br1–xClx)3-Au for degrading water-insoluble carcinogenic Sudan Red III under visible light irradiation was characterized by UV–vis absorption spectra. CsPb(Br1–xClx)3-Au nanoheterostructures showed excellent photocatalytic activities, which can degrade about 71% of Sudan Red III within 6 h. This study provides a new way to use semiconductor perovskite–metal nanoheterostructures in photocatalytic applications.

The cation structural changes of two 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium halides, [BMIM]Cl and [BMIM]Br, are investigated by in situ Raman spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and synchrotron X-ray diffraction as a function of hydrostatic pressure. The [BMIM]+ cations of [BMIM]Cl take the TT conformation under ambient conditions, undergo significant changes at 3.4 GPa, which is related to the potential formations of some new cation conformations, and take another conformation from 6.8 to 35.6 GPa. Correspondingly, crystalline [BMIM]Cl has a structure transition at 3.4 GPa, originating directly from the cation conformational changes. The [BMIM]+ cations totally transform into the GT conformer, if the diamond anvil cell-loaded sample is treated at 423 K for 12 h in a furnace before being cooled down to room temperature. It is the first time to observe the complete conformational transition from one conformer (TT) to another (GT) for the [BMIM]+ salts in experiments. The cations preserve the GT conformation as pressure reaches 44.6 GPa for heat-treated [BMIM]Cl. As a comparison, without and with the heat treatment, the [BMIM]+ cations of [BMIM]Br keep the GT conformation at high pressures up to 29.6 GPa, as it is a relatively stable state. Moreover, a notable photoluminescence emerges at high pressures over 20.0 GPa and is maintained in the decompression process, as a result of the pressure-induced polymerization of a small portion of the [BMIM]+ cations.

Soil nutrient testing is an effective way to uncover soil nutrient status. However, the conventional testing method (CT method) and Mehlich 3 method (M3 method) demand long-time consumption, tedious testing steps, high testing cost, dangerous chemicals contained in extractant, etc. Therefore, it is important to develop a new rapid test method or improve the existing rapid test method of soil available nutrients. In this study, an improved Mehlich3 method (IM3 method) with the new combined extractant were developed and evaluated on the testing feasibility, precision, efficiency, and cost. The results showed that: (1) IM3 method avoided the usage of two hazardous chemicals, i.e., ammonium nitrate and nitric acid, which were difficult in purchase and storage but contained in the combined extractant of M3 method. (2) The correlation coefficients of available P, K, Fe, Mn, Cu and Zn in calcareous soil between M3 and CT, and between IM3 and CT methods all reached highly significant level. The correlation coefficient of available Zn between IM3 and CT method was significantly higher than that between M3 and CT method, and those of the other elements had not obviously changed. (3) The variation coefficients of available P, K, Fe and Cu determined by M3 and IM3 methods were all lower than those determined by CT method. The variation coefficients of available Mn and Zn determined by IM3 were 3.67% and 6.43%, which were slightly higher than those determined by CT method with 2.72% and 5.29%, but were lower than those determined by M3 method. (4) Under the premise of ensuring testing precision, IM3 method took only 6.3 min/piece for determining six elements, reducing testing time by 70.7% and 3.08% compared with CT (21.5 min/piece) and M3 (6.5 min/piece) methods, respectively. The testing cost of IM3 method was reduced by 26% and 61.2% compared with M3 and CT methods, respectively. In conclusion, IM3 method is an ideal rapid measurement method for the simultaneous determination of available soil nutrients in calcareous soil.Keywords:improved testing method for soil nutrients;extractant;testing precision;testing time;testing cost;calcareous soil

Glycosylated protein nano encapsulation was an efficient encapsulation technology, but its embedding rate for EGCG was not high, and the research on the embedding mechanism was relatively weak. Based on this, this study compared the embedding effect of glycosylated peanut globulin and glycosylated casein on EGCG. The embedding mechanism of EGCG with glycosylated protein was discussed by ultraviolet, fluorescence, infrared and fluorescence microscopy. Results revealed that the highest encapsulation efficiency of EGCG was 93.89 ± 1.11%. The neutral pH value and 0.3 mg/mL EGCG addition amount were suitable for EGCG glycosylated nanocomposites. The hydrogen bond between EGCG hydroxyl group and tyrosine and tryptophan of glycosylated protein is mainly non covalent. The encapsulation effect of EGCG glycosylated nanocomposites could be quenched by changing the polar environment and spatial structure of the group. The fluorescence characteristic and dispersibility of EGCG glycosylated peanut globin were higher than EGCG glycosylated casein. This study might provide a theoretical basis for EGCG microencapsulation technology and EGCG application in tea beverage and liquid tea food systems.

3-phenyllactic acid (PLA) has broad anti-fungal activity, however, target sites of PLA on fungal cells and its anti-fungal mechanism of action have been poorly studied. In this study, we explored the inhibition mechanism of Rhizopus oryzae ( R. oryzae ) on rotten lily bulbs by PLA. The minimum inhibitory concentration value of PLA against R. oryzae was 8 mg/mL. We observed the ultrastructure of R. oryzae by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy which indicated that PLA did not damage the cell membrane, but destroyed the mitochondria and other organelles. Tandem mass tag proteomes showed that PLA significantly down-regulated ( P < 0.05) the expression of hexokinase (HK), phosphofructokinase (PFK), a-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (a-KGDH), adenylate kinase (ADK1), Cytochrome C oxidase and NADH dehydrogenase, and up-regulated ( P < 0.05) the expression of mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier proteins (AAC) and subunit IV (CCIO IV) in glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle or oxidative phosphorylation metabolism. Following these findings, down-regulated HK and a-KGDH activity of aforementioned pathways was shown by enzyme activity assay, and regulated gene expression of ADK1, AAC, CCIO IV and NADH dehydrogenase was further confirmed by real-time quantitative PCR. Central carbon metabolomics showed that citric acid, cis-Aconitic acid, isocitric acid, alpha-Ketoglutaric acid, succinate, fumarate and malic acid of the tricarboxylic acid cycle metabolites were significantly down-regulated ( P < 0.05), and ATP production by oxidative phosphorylation was also significantly reduced ( P = 0.02), resulting in insufficient energy production. Thus, ROS levels increased by 141% of the control values and cytochrome C was released, resulting in gradual cell apoptosis. All data indicated that energy metabolism was the target of PLA against R. oryzae . This was the first study to show that energy metabolism could be the target of PLA against R. oryzae , which could provide a theoretical basis to study the mechanism of fungal inhibition.

Cadmium (Cd) is an environmental pollutant and endocrine disrupter , abundantly present in water, food, and soil. Accumulation of Cd in the body can negatively affect female reproduction; especially the uterus is exceptionally sensitive to the toxic actions of Cd. The anthocyanin cyanidin-3- O -glucoside (C3G) is a naturally occurring phenolic compound in fruits and plants that can antagonize the toxic effects of Cd. This capacity makes C3G a possible candidate to prevent Cd-induced female infertility. The present study aimed to investigate: 1) whether C3G intake could prevent Cd-induced female reproductive toxicity, and 2) the underlying mechanisms responsible for this protective effect. The results of our study indicated that Cd exposure did not affect ovarian function, but induced hypertrophy of the uterine endometrium. Oral intake of C3G markedly reduced the effects of Cd exposure on the thickness of the uterine epithelium cells. Transcriptomic analysis of the endometrium revealed that C3G intake had anti-estrogenic effects, attenuating Cd-induced endometrial epithelial cell proliferation by inhibiting estrogen-responsive genes, enhancing epithelial progesterone receptor expression, and regulating Klf4 expression. The current findings implicate that C3G has the potential to be used as a dietary supplement based on its capacity to intervene in Cd-induced female reproductive toxicity.

Rare-earth-doped upconverison luminescent (UCL) materials have wide application prospects in the field of nanoptoelectronics technology. However, achieving highly efficient UCL materials is still a big challenge due to the serious nonradiative energy loss in the host materials. In this research, Gd 2 (WO 4 ) 3 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ inverse opal photonic crystals (IOPCs) were prepared using a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) template-assisted method, and the effects of modulations of the IOPC structure on UC emission properties of Er 3+ were investigated systemically. As a result, the emission intensity of 2 H 11/2 - 4 I 15/2 in IOPC was found to be suppressed 37.4%, and the radiative lifetimes of 4 S 3/2 - 4 I 15/2 were prolonged 1.55 times. The effects of the doping concentration on the reciprocal of fluorescence lifetimes of 4 S 3/2 - 4 I 15/2 between the IOPC and the reference (REF) samples showed that the cross-energy transfer (CET) rate and the electronic transition rate were greatly inhibited, which could be due to the effect of the modulation of the effective index on the radiative transition rate and on the decrease of nonradiative transition rate caused by periodic thin-walled structure of IOPC. The power-dependent UC emission properties validated the supposition that the IOPC structure could be effectively suppressed the local thermal effect and thermal quenching. This research presents a further step in the exploration of the new kind of UCL materials with high luminous efficiency.
