Abstract: Phase equilibrium for CO
2 –NaCl brine is of general interest to many scientific disciplines and technical areas. The system is particularly important to CO2 sequestration in deep saline aquifers and CO2 enhanced oil recovery, two techniques discussed intensively in recent years due to the concerns over climate change and energy security. This work is an experimental and modeling study of two fundamental properties in high pressure CO2 –NaCl brine equilibrium, i.e., CO2 solubility in NaCl brine and CO2 –saturated NaCl brine density. A literature review of the available data was presented first to illustrate the necessity of experimental measurements of the two properties at high pressures. An experimental method for measuring high pressure CO2 solubility in NaCl brine was then developed. With the method, CO2 solubilities in 0, 1, and 5m NaCl brines were measured at 323, 373, and 413K from 5 to 40MPa. The corresponding density data at the same conditions were also measured. For solubility, two models used in the Eclipse simulator were tested: the correlations of Chang et al. and the Søreide and Whitson equation of state (EoS) model. The latter model was modified to improve its performance for high salinity brine. In the density modeling, the correlations of Chang et al., Garcia''s correlation, and five different EoS models were tested. Among these models, Garcia''s correlation and the ePC-SAFT EoS generally give satisfactory agreement with the experimental measurements. An analysis was also made to show that dissolution of CO2 increases the brine density only if the apparent mass density of CO2 in brine is higher than the brine density at the same conditions.

Abstract: The Coarse Woody Debris (CWD) quantity, defined as biomass per unit area (t/ha), and the quality, defined as the proportion of standing dead logs to the total CWD quantity, greatly contribute to many ecological processes such as forest nutrient cycling, tree regeneration, wildlife habitat, fire dynamics, and carbon dynamics. However, a cost-effective and time-saving method to determine CWD is not available. Very limited literature could be found that applies remote sensing technique to CWD inventory. In this paper, we fused the wall-to-wall multi-frequency and multi-polarization Airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (AirSAR) and optical Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) to estimate the quantity and quality of CWD in Yellowstone post-fire forest ecosystem, where the severe 1988 fire event resulted in high spatial heterogeneity of dead logs. To relate backscatter values to CWD metrics, we first reduced the terrain effect to remove the interference of topography on AirSAR backscatter. Secondly, we removed the influence of regenerating sapling by quadratic polynomial fitting between AVIRIS Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) and different channels backscatters. The quantity of CWD was derived from P hh and P hv, and the quality of CWD was derived from P hh aided by the ratio of L hv and P hh. Two maps of Yellowstone post-fire CWD quantity and quality were produced. The calculated CWD quantity and quality were validated by extensive field surveys. Regarding CWD quantity, the correlation coefficient between measured and predicted CWD is only 0.54 with mean absolute error up to 29.1 t/ha. However, if the CWD quantity was discretely classified into three categories of “≤60”, “60–120”, and “≥120”, the overall accuracy is 65.6%; if classified into two categories of “≤90” and “≥90”, the overall accuracy is 73.1%; if classified into two categories of “≤60” and “≥60”, the overall accuracy is 84.9%. This indicates our attempt to map CWD quantity spatially and continuously achieved partial success; however, the general and discrete categories are reasonable. Regarding CWD quality, the overall accuracy of 5 types (Type 1—standing CWD ratio ≥40%; Type 2—15%≤standing CWD ratio <40%; Type 3—7%≤standing CWD ratio<15%; Type 4—3%≤standing CWD ratio <7%; Type 5—standing CWD ratio <3%) is only 40.32%. However, when type 1, 2, 3 are combined into one category and type 4 and 5 are combined into one category, the overall accuracy is 67.74%. This indicates the partial success of our initial results to map CWD quality into detailed categories, but the result is acceptable if solely very coarse CWD quality is considered. Bias can be attributed to the complex influence of many factors, such as field survey error, sapling compensation, terrain effect reduction, surface properties, and backscatter mechanism understanding.

166. Organocatalytic Asymmetric Dearomatizing Hetero-Diels–Alder Reaction of Nonactivated Arenes

- Abstract
Nonactivated arenes, such as benzene derivatives, are chemically inert due to their intrinsic aromaticity and low polarity. The catalytic asymmetric dearomatization (CADA, coined by You and co-workers) of the nonactivated arenes represents a formidable challenge. We herein demonstrated an organocatalytic asymmetric dearomatizing hetero-Diels–Alder reaction of benzene derivatives. The tunable regioselectivity of this strategy allowed delivery of a diversity of stereochemically complex polycyclic compounds and oxahelicenes with excellent stereoselectivity. The high complexity and three-dimensionality of the products are crucial for their potential applications in materials science and drug discovery. Mechanistic studies suggested that this reaction proceeds through a chiral tetra-substituted vinylidene ortho-quinone methide (VQM) intermediate, which is extremely active to overcome the loss of aromaticity of benzene derivatives with concomitant chirality transfer.

NANOWIRES , *SOLAR energy conversion , *TITANATES , *SURFACE recombination , *ELECTRON-hole recombination , *ACTIVATION energy , *GRAPHENE oxide - Abstract
Wide bandgap semiconductor-based photocatalysts are usually limited by their low solar energy conversion efficiency due to their limited absorption solar wavelength, their rapid surface recombination of the photogenerated electron–hole pairs, and their low charge-carrier mobility. Here, we report a novel stepwise solution synthesis for achieving a new photocatalytic core–shell consisting of a titanate nanowire/reduced graphene oxide shell (or titanate/rGO) 1D-nanocomposite. The new core–shell nanocomposite maximized the specific surface area, largely reduced the charge transfer resistance and reaction energy barrier, and significantly improved the absorption of visible light. The core–shell nanocomposites' large on/off current ratio and rapid photo-responses boosted the photocurrent by 30.0%, the photocatalysis rate by 50.0%, and the specific surface area by 16.4% when compared with the results for the pure titanate nanowire core. Our numerical simulations support the effective charge separation on the new core–shell nanostructure, which can help further advance the novel photocatalysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A major goal of the hot QCD program, the extraction of the properties of the quark gluon plasma (QGP), is currently limited by our poor knowledge of the initial condition of the QGP, in particular how it is shaped from the colliding nuclei. To attack this limitation, we propose to exploit collisions of selected species to precisely assess how the initial condition changes under variations of the structure of the colliding ions. This knowledge, combined with event-by-event measures of particle correlations in the final state of heavy-ion collisions, will provide in turn a new way to probe the collective structure of nuclei, and to confront and exploit the predictions of state-of-the-art ab initio nuclear structure theories. The US nuclear community should capitalize on this interdisciplinary connection by pursuing collisions of well-motivated species at high-energy colliders., 23 pages, 6 figures

We present the first measurements of the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry $A_{LL}$ for dijets with at least one jet reconstructed within the pseudorapidity range $0.8 < \eta < 1.8$. The dijets were measured in polarized $pp$ collisions at a center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}$ = 200 GeV. Values for $A_{LL}$ are determined for several distinct event topologies, defined by the jet pseudorapidities, and span a range of parton momentum fraction $x$ down to $x \sim$ 0.01. The measured asymmetries are found to be consistent with the predictions of global analyses that incorporate the results of previous RHIC measurements. They will provide new constraints on $\Delta g(x)$ in this poorly constrained region when included in future global analyses.

- Abstract
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) respond as brittle materials at room temperature (RT) and fail upon any imposed strain for elongation. By following up our previous study on electron-beam (e-beam)-induced non-uniform elongation of MWCNTs (Khan et al. in J Phys Condens Matter 30:385302, 2018), here, it is illustrated that through moderate irradiation to a high enough intensity e-beam, dramatic uniform elongations can be attained for thin enough MWCNTs at RT, where homogeneous plastic flow of carbon atoms along the tube shells in the tube axis direction takes place with uniform inward diffusion of tube shells. The study also reports well-fitting results for quantitative kinetic relationship of the shrinkage time consequences under nanoscaled curvature, revealing predominant effect of much greater surface energy. These findings are purposeful for processing CNTs and other conventional nanotubes for their utilization in nanodevices and nanotechnology.

- Abstract
Fault diagnosis is becoming increasingly important in improving the reliability of power electronic devices. The research in this paper focuses on the issue of the faulty operation that can occur after partial IGBT open-circuit faults in three-phase PWM rectifier circuits. To promptly and effectively diagnose faults and to determine their locations, a fault diagnosis method based on transient characteristics and random forest classification is proposed. First, the characteristics of single and double IGBT open-circuit faults in three-phase PWM rectifier circuits are analyzed. It is discovered that these faults do not immediately manifest. Instead, they exhibit fault characteristics in the corresponding time sequence. Then the random forest classifier is trained using transient fault samples from the three-phase PWM rectifier circuit. Finally, generalized testing is performed on data that was not involved in the training process, with an accuracy rate of over 98%. The use of frequency distribution graphs for visual analysis of the diagnostic results solves the problem of diagnosing multiple IGBT open-circuit faults. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

PHOTODETECTORS , *NANOWIRES , *TELECOMMUNICATION , *OPTICAL communications , *ATTENUATION of light - Abstract
Undersea optical communication (UOC) has been considered as the most potential next‐generation underwater wireless communication technology for ocean exploration. Photodetector is the essential component in UOC system, however, the harsh undersea environment like light attenuation and seawater corrosivity restricts the applications of conventional photodetectors. Herein, a novel natural‐electrolyte self‐powered photoelectrochemical (PEC) photodetector based on core‐shell structured Cu@GaN nanowires (NWs) network is demonstrated and direct utilization of seawater. High quality GaN shell is encapsulated on the Cu NWs network through Ga‐coating and high temperature nitridation processes. A Schottky junction along radial direction has formed at the Cu/GaN interface due to the outward diffusion of Cu into the GaN layer. Such a structure provides narrowed band detection on blue light as well as efficient carrier separation. A self‐powered undersea PEC photodetector is designed with a mini‐pipes connected device chamber, which allows direct indrawing of seawater and blue channel light communication (458 nm). This photodetector works stably for UOC in both shallow and deep‐sea conditions in Pacific Ocean area. It shows a high responsivity up to 5.04 mA W−1 and rapid response time of 0.68 ms. This photodetector can be easily integrated to marine equipment without waterproof packaging for the future energy‐saving UOC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

KELVIN probe force microscopy , *HYBRID power - Abstract
Hybrid piezo/triboelectric nanogenerators (H‐P/TENGs) are developed to compensate the drawbacks of a single nanogenerator by synergizing high triboelectric output voltage and piezoelectric output current in continuous contact‐separation cycles. In particular, piezoelectric zinc oxide (ZnO) has been widely used due to its excellent orientation along the c‐axis and tunable growth structures. Herein, various growth structures of ZnO, unoriented, oriented, and hierarchical structures, are incorporated in H‐P/TENGs, enhancing their power densities from 6 to 17 times. Particularly, oriented ZnO nanorod/PVA (ZnR) achieves a maximum power density of 15.9 W m−2 (≈17‐fold increment compared to pristine PVA). The highly oriented ZnO growth along the c‐axis enables large deformation upon a vertical compression, subsequently generating a large piezoelectric polarization. Moreover, the enhancement mechanism via piezoelectric polarization is elucidated using a modified overlapped electron cloud model supported with Kelvin probe force microscopy measurements. The polarization of ZnO nanocomposites enlarges the difference in the highest electron energies (ΔE) between the two triboelectric layers, driving more electrons to transfer during contact electrification, thereby enriching their surface charge densities. This study highlights the significance of growth structure control in maximizing the piezoelectric responses of ZnO, consequently improving the output performances of H‐P/TENGs.

• MoS 2 NTs in different shell thicknesses were constructed on FTO substrates. • MoS 2 NTs overcame the aggregation and enabled multiple refraction of light. • MS05 array owned the largest kinetic constant of 5.516 × 10 − 3 mi n − 1 c m − 2 . • The dye absorption, excitation and recombination dominated catalytic activity. Light trapping based on nanostructure has emerged as an effective method to improve light absorption of the photocatalytic devices. Herein, molybdenum disulfide nanotube arrays with different wall thicknesses were successfully synthesized by changing reactant concentration from 50 % to 150 %. The nanotubes overcame aggregation of the nanosheets, offered multiple scattering centers and enabled multiple refraction of light, leading to excellent light harvest in the visible range and molecule absorption efficiency as high as 21.0 %. The photodegradation efficiency of methylene blue as catalyzed by the nanotubes was modulated by the wall thickness, in which the highest degradation efficiency of 69.6 % and the largest kinetic constant of 5.516 × 10 − 3 mi n − 1 · c m − 2 were achieved for the thinnest wall. The analysis revealed that the photocatalytic activity of the nanotube arrays was dominated by the dye absorption, environment, light excitation and charge recombination, which would provide structural design for their applications in optoelectronics and photocatalysis.

SPINAL cord injuries , *LAMINECTOMY , *SOMATOSENSORY evoked potentials , *SPINE - Abstract
This study investigates the effect of extended laminectomy (EL) on spinal cord injury (SCI) caused by spinal shortening, and further, the timing and the optimal length of removal. Dogs received spinal column shortening at T13 segment, following which the control group underwent regular laminectomy while other groups underwent laminectomy with an additional 1-lamina length removed 6h after shortening ("1-lamina EL 6 h"), an extra 1.5-lamina length resected at 6 h or 12 h after shortening ("1.5-lamina EL 6 h" and "1.5-lamina EL 12 h"), and an extra 2-lamina length removed at 6 or 12 h after shortening ("2-lamina EL 6 h" and 2-lamina EL 12 h"), respectively. Somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) and neurological function were recorded periodically; spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) and nerve cell apoptosis were detected. The results showed that resection of an additional 1-lamina length appeared inadequate to relieve the sharp kinking of the spinal cord, whereas the kinking disappeared with an additional 2-lamina length resection. The "1-lamina EL 6 h" and "1.5-lamina EL 12 h" groups showed no significant differences from the control in latency of SSEP, SCBF, hindlimb function and apoptosis. By contrast, significant recovery of SSEP, SCBF and hindlimb function as well as reduction of apoptosis were presented in other three groups. The "2-lamina EL 6 h" group, in particular, showed the most prominent recovery. In conclusion, an additional resection of two laminae at 6 h after shortening showed the best effect in alleviating SCI. Timely and adequately extended laminectomy could be a potential therapeutic strategy for SCI attributable to spinal shortening. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
[Display omitted] • MoS 2 NTs and ZnO/MoS 2 NRs in different lengths were constructed normal to the substrates. • The NTs enhanced Raman intensity with a detection limit of 5 × 10−7 M than 1 × 10−6 M for the NRs. • The NTs exhibited faster self-cleaning for a recyclable substrate. • The mechanisms for the NTs outperforming the NRs were illustrated. Structure and heterojunction of substrates are widely regarded as critical factors to improve Raman detection and recyclibility, but the exact roles are rarely explored for the mixed contributions. Herein, the arrays of ZnO/MoS 2 coaxial nanorods (NRs) and MoS 2 nanotubes (NTs) were successfully constructed for the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The influences of NR and NT length on the morphology, light absorption and emission, as well as SERS performance were systematically investigated. Both the arrays grown for 40 min displayed optimal SERS performance, in which MoS 2 NT array owned stronger enhancement with a detection limit of 5 × 10−7 M than that of 1 × 10−6 M for ZnO/MoS 2 NR array. The NTs also effectively enhanced photocatalysis, in which rhodamine 6G pollutant was completely degraded within 140 min under ultraviolet light, surpassing that by the NRs. The analysis revealed that band alignment and structure characteristic of the specimens played critical roles in the spectral enhancement and self-cleaning, while the nanostructure surpassed heterojunction as it supplied void interior for extending light propagation and more contact area for adsorbing pollutants. These results would contribute to a better understanding of the Raman enhancement and could be extended to the design of SERS substrates to harness their potential application. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: The Ru-doped Ruddlesden–Popper (RP)-type compounds Sr3Fe2−x Ru x O7 (, 0.3, 0.6, 1.0 and 1.4) were synthesized and checked by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The doping dependencies of unit cell parameters, resistivity () and magnetization were studied. Further, hysteresis measurements were done on the sample . Resistance measurements indicate that all the samples are insulators and electric transport properties fit the two-dimensional variable range hopping (VRH) model very well. Magnetism measurements show that a spin-glass state exists in all the measured samples when the temperature is lower than about 25 K. The temperature dependencies of the inverse molar magnetic susceptibility indicate that weak ferromagnetism occurs at a much higher temperature than that of glassy transition.

HETEROSTRUCTURES , *PHOTOELECTROCHEMICAL cells , *SEMICONDUCTOR devices , *PHOTOLUMINESCENCE , *LIGHT absorption - Abstract
• The band positions of the semiconductor crystals in nanoscale experience a significant shift when they are joined together. • The introduction of Au nanoparticles into the heterojunction interface instigates an additional band offset. • Compared to Si/ZnO array, Si/Au/ZnO array decreases resistance from 85 to 52 Ω and improves photocurrent from 0.5 to 4.0 µA for the superior band alignment. • The reaction rate of Si/Au/ZnO array is nearly twice that of Si/ZnO array and 2.53 times that of Si array. • The change of band position and band alignment by the interfacial regulation can be applied to other semiconductor heterostructures. The exotic performances of semiconductor heterostructures are generally ascribed to the band alignment and band bending at the heterojunction interface for the built-in potential. Herein, theoretic computations and experiments reveal for the first time that the band positions of Si and ZnO experience a significant shift when they are joined together. The introduction of Au nanoparticles into this interfacial layer matrix instigates an additional band offset, leading to the change from type-I to type-II band alignment. Compared to the binary architecture, the superior band alignment of the ternary architecture augments light absorption, concurrently suppressing photoluminescence and reducing resistance from 85 to 52 Ω. Moreover, a substantial improvement in photocurrent is achieved, increasing from 0.5 to 4.0 µA, alongside a significant elevation in photocatalytic activity from 1.90 × 10−3 to 3.67 × 10−3 min−1, indicating potential of the Si/Au/ZnO heterostructure as a promising candidate in optoelectronics and photocatalysis. The current work highlights the band offset and interfacial regulation of the semiconductor heterostructures, which diverges from the band bending for the built-in potential and can be extended to design heterogeneous semiconductor nanomaterials with suitable band alignment for their potential applications. Band offset and interfacial regulation of the core-shell Si/Au/ZnO nanowire array lead to the enhanced photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic performances. [Display omitted] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The hollow NT with a built-in electric field at the heterogeneous semiconductor shell expanded curvature effect and generated light diffraction in the inner wall that enhanced light absorption and improved charge transfer and photocatalytic activity. [Display omitted] • MoS 2 and its heterogeneous NT arrays were synthesized on FTO substrates in a vertical alignment. • The hollow NT with the heterogeneous semiconductor shell expanded curvature effect and generated light diffraction in the inner wall that enhanced light absorption and improved charge transfer and photocatalytic activity. • The MoS 2 /ZnO/Ag 2 S array owned the best catalytic performance with efficiencies of 68.9 % and 78.1 % in 30 min under visible and UV light, respectively. • A built-in electric field at the interface pointing from MoS 2 to ZnO induced a type-II band alignment that promoted photocatalytic performance. Nanotubes are unique structures capable of producing light diffraction on their inner wall, amplifying curvature effect, and enhancing light excitation. These characteristics are of paramount importance in the fields of the optoelectronic and photocatalytic materials. In this study, MoS 2 and its heterogeneous nanotube arrays were synthesized on FTO substrates in a vertical alignment. The hollow structure of these nanotube arrays was found to significantly enhance light absorption efficiency. The core–shell MoS 2 /ZnO resulted in strong electric interaction at the interface, leading to a reduced bandgap in MoS 2. Being catalysts for the degradation of dye molecules, all the nanotube arrays achieved larger photocatalytic efficiency than that of the nanowire arrays with identical components. The ternary MoS 2 /ZnO/Ag 2 S array owned the best catalytic performance for the degradation of methylene blue, with efficiencies of 68.9 % and 78.1 % in 30 min under visible and UV light, respectively. Both experimental and theoretical analyses revealed the presence of a built-in electric field at the interface, directing from MoS 2 to ZnO. This induced a type-II band alignment that promoted photocatalytic performance. This study highlights the exceptional optoelectronic conversion properties and photocatalytic activity of nanotube heterojunctions, holding significant implications for the design of semiconductor devices.

Purpose: To determine the safe range of shortening the spinal column at middle thoracic spine and to observe the changes in blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB), microglia/macrophage activation and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) activity after shortening-induced spinal cord injury.Methods: Dogs were allocated to four groups. Group A (control) underwent laminectomy of T7 without shortening the spinal column. Groups B, C and D had 1/3, 1/2, and 2/3 of T7 resected, respectively, followed by spinal shortening. Somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) and hind-limb function were recorded periodically for 14 days after operation. Spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) and BSCB were detected at the acute phase of shortening. Microglia/macrophage reactions and iNOS activity were observed by immunohistochemistry.Results: Shortening of 1/3 of a vertebral height caused no significant changes in SSEP and hind-limb function after operation, whereas shortening of 1/2 of the height caused SSEP abnormality and paraparesis, and severe neurologic deficit of hind-limb was observed when the shortening reached 2/3 of the height. SCBF increased temporarily and showed a trend of recovery when the shortening was within 1/2 of a vertebral segment height. When it reached 1/2 or 2/3 of the height, SCBF at 6 h post-operation was 86.33% or 74.95% of the baseline, and an increasing BSCB permeability was observed. In the subsequent 7 days, obvious activation of macrophage and increased number of iNOS-positive cells were observed.Conclusion: It is safe to shorten the spinal cord within 1/3 of a vertebral height in middle thoracic spine under two-segment laminectomy in canine. The BSCB disruption, macrophage activation, and increased iNOS activity were observed in the acute phase of the injury. These slides can be retrieved under Electronic Supplementary Material.

[Display omitted] • Core-shell Si/TiO 2 nanowires were synthesized vertically on silicon substrate. • The heterostructure owned a wide spectral absorption with large photocurrent. • The catalytic efficiency of the sample was 86.82% in 1 h with good stability. • The excited charges were effectively separated by the internal electric field. Semiconductor photocatalysts can eliminate organic pollutants completely, but the poor utilization of solar energy and rapid recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs have become a vital obstacle for their widespread application. Herein Si/TiO 2 nanowire arrays with core–shell structures were fabricated by metal-assisted chemical etching and atomic-layered deposition. The physical properties and photocatalytic performance of the specimens were tested and compared with pristine Si nanowire arrays. The specimens showed perfect light absorption. The photoluminescence was generally depressed by the shell layer, and the photocurrent and photocatalytic efficiency of Si/TiO 2 were improved by 297 and 2 times respectively in contrast to Si. The magnitude of the photocurrent and photocatalytic activity could be modulated by the etching period, in which an ideal etching time of 2 h produced the highest photocatalytic performance. The high efficient photocatalysis of the heterostructure was well illustrated by the Z-scheme band alignment and large specific surface area. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Timely and accurate knowledge of species-level biomass is essential for forest managers to sustain forest resources and respond to various forest disturbance regimes. In this study, maps of species-level biomass in Chinese boreal forests were generated by integrating Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) images with forest inventory data using k nearest neighbor ( kNN) methods and evaluated at different scales. The performance of 630 kNN models based on different distance metrics, k values, and temporal MODIS predictor variables were compared. Random Forest (RF) showed the best performance among the six distance metrics: RF, Euclidean distance, Mahalanobis distance, most similar neighbor in canonical correlation space, most similar neighbor computed using projection pursuit, and gradient nearest neighbor. No appreciable improvement was observed using multi-month MODIS data compared with using single-month MODIS data. At the pixel scale, species-level biomass for larch and white birch had relatively good accuracy (root mean square deviation < 62.1%), while the other species had poorer accuracy. The accuracy of most species except for willow and spruce was improved up to the ecoregion scale. The maps of species-level biomass captured the effects of disturbances including fire and harvest and can provide useful information for broad-scale forest monitoring over time.

Plasmonic properties of the Ag nanocaps were analyzed by the finite-difference time-domain method, in addition to the fabrication and sensor application of the two-dimensional Ag nanocap arrays. The thickness limitation for the light penetration of the nanocaps was revealed. The evolution of the plasma modes with the shell thickness and structure of the nanocaps was illustrated. The hemisphere nanocap was found to own the strongest absorption intensity and field enhancement. The sensing ability of the fabricated Ag hemisphere nanocap arrays was evaluated by the Raman spectrum of the rhodamine 6G and methylene blue molecules. The ordered arrays displayed improved light absorption with intense plasmon coupling, resulting in the strong surface-enhanced Raman scattering with an enhanced factor 15 folds of the nanosphere arrays, which suggested that the metal nanocaps might be promising for biochemical sensor application. The ordered nanocaps owned strong light absorption and confined electric field around with enormous plasmon coupling, resulting in the improved surface-enhanced Raman scattering with an enhanced factor 15 folds of the ordered nanospheres.

• Type-I-C 46 , Type-II-C 34 and Type-H-C 34 carbon clathrates show distinct anisotropy in their tensile Young's moduli and ideal tensile/shear strengths, but isotropy in the shear Young's moduli. • Maximum ideal tensile strength of carbon clathrates can exceed that of heavyweight diamond under <111> directional load, and shear Young's moduli are comparable to that of diamond • Those carbon clathrates are intrinsically indirect semiconductors, and their electronic properties can be greatly dictated by mechanical tension and shear strains. Clathrates are fully- sp 3 cage-like three dimensional (3D) structures that offer unique mechanical and electronic properties. Here, the mechanical properties of Type-I-C 46 , Type-II-C 34 and Type-H-C 34 carbon clathrates under uniaxial and shear loads are examined by means of ab initio calculations. It is predicted that those carbon clathrates show distinct anisotropy in their ideal tensile/shear strengths and critical tensile/shear strains, but isotropy in the shear Young's moduli. Intriguingly, their maximum ideal tensile strengths exceed that of heavyweight diamond under <111> directional load, and their shear Young's moduli are comparable to that of diamond. Those carbon clathrates show distinct deformability in their critical load-bearing bond configurations, resulting in their distinct mechanical properties. Moreover, all investigated carbon clathrates are intrinsically indirect semiconductors, and their electronic properties can be greatly tuned by tension and shear strains. As a consequence, carbon clathrates can be potentially utilized as lightweight strong engineering structures and in electromechanical devices. [Display omitted] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Over the past decades, many efficient methodologies have been developed that allow for the enantioselective synthesis of chiral sulfinyl compounds. However, the enantioselective deoxygenation of hexavalent sulfones for the formation of chiral sulfinyl compounds still remains one of the major challenges in the fields of asymmetric synthesis and organosulfur chemistry. Here we have demonstrated that a synergistic combination of organocatalysis and the incorporation of a cyano group into the sulfone generates a chiral sulfinic species as an active intermediate. A wide range of chiral sulfinates with high enantioselectivities could then be acquired using alcohols as nucleophiles, and the subsequent transformations allowed the collective preparation of a variety of chiral sulfinyl compounds. Density functional theory calculations revealed that the catalytic cycle involves a quinuclidine-assisted stepwise 1,2-cyano group transfer, base-assisted intermolecular substitution with alcohol and regeneration of the active catalyst. The enantioselectivity was determined by the cyano migration step., (© 2023. The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Limited.)

- Abstract
Structure has been considered to play an important role in photocatalytic performance of the semiconductors, but the intrinsic factors were rarely revealed. Herein, ZnO nanomaterials in the structures of thin film, nanowire array and nanosheet array were synthesized, and their structural characteristics, optical properties, photocurrent response and photocatalytic efficiency were compared with each other for illustrating the issue. The photoluminescence intensity decreased in the order of nanosheets, thin film and nanowires for improved lifetime of the photoexcited charges. The absorption of the nanosheets and nanowires improved obviously in the visible range with a redshift of the absorption edge than that of the thin film. The nanowires possessed the highest response current of 82.65 μA at a response time of 2.0 ms in a sensitivity of 87.93 at the light frequency of 1 Hz, and gained the largest catalytic efficiency of 2.45 μg/cm
2 h for the methylene blue degradation in UV light. Nevertheless, the improvement of catalytic efficiency of the nanosheets (up to 42.4%) was much larger than that of nanowires (5.7%) and thin film (2.6%) for the Au coating. The analysis revealed that the photocatalytic efficiency of the ZnO nanomaterials was modulated by the structure as it contained different surface area, roughness, defect and doping states, vacancies, polar and non-polar crystalline faces, which would provide structural design of semiconductor nanomaterials for the photoelectric and photocatalytic applications., (© 2022.

- Abstract
(1) Background: Understanding occurrence can help formulate effective preventative laws and regulations. However, the most recent global burden and road injuries (RIs) trends have not been reported. This study reports the burden of RIs globally from 1990 to 2019. (2) Methods: RIs data were downloaded from the Global Burden of Disease 2019. Incidence, deaths, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) described the trend and burden of RIs. We calculated age-standardized rates (ASRs) and estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) for the above indexes to evaluate the temporal trend of RIs. We evaluated the social-demographic index (SDI) with epidemiological RI parameters and reported proportions of age-standardized rates due to RI. (3) Results: In 2019, the global incidence of RIs reached 103.2 million. The EAPC of RI incidence increased, whereas deaths and DALYs decreased. Age-standardized incident rate (ASIR) was highest in low-middle SDI regions, age-standardized death rate (ASDR) was high in middle SDI regions, and age-standardized DALYs increased in low SDI regions. The highest accident rates were found in those aged 20-24 years old. Cyclist injuries were the leading RIs (34%), though pedestrian and motor vehicle accidents were the leading cause of death (37.4%, 37.6%) and DALYs (35.7%, 32.3%), respectively. (4) Conclusions: Over the past 30 years, RIs incidence increased annually, though death and DALY rates decreased. RIs places a considerable burden on public health in low SDI countries. Data should be used to develop and implement effective measures to reduce the burden of RIs.

- Abstract
1,2-Azoles are privileged structures in ligand/catalyst design and widely exist in many important natural products and drugs. In this report, two types of axially chiral 1,2-azoles (naphthyl-isothiazole S-oxides with a stereogenic sulfur center and atropoisomeric naphthyl pyrazoles) are synthesized via modified vinylidene ortho-quinone methide intermediates. Diverse products are acquired in satisfying yields and good to excellent enantioselectivities. The vinylidene ortho-quinone methide intermediates bearing two hetero atoms at 5-position have been demonstrated as a platform molecule for the atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral 1,2-azoles. This finding not only enrich our knowledge of vinylidene ortho-quinone methide chemistry but also provide the easy preparation method for diverse atropisomeric heterobiaryls that were inaccessible by existing methodologies. The obtained chiral naphthyl-isothiazole S-oxides and naphthyl-pyrazoles have demonstrated their potential application in further synthetic transformations and therapeutic agents., (© 2022.

- Abstract
ZnO/Si nanowire arrays with hierarchical architecture were synthesized by solution method with ZnO seed layer grown by atomic layer deposition and magnetron sputtering, respectively. The photocatalytic activity of the as-grown tree-like arrays was evaluated by the degradation of methylene blue under ultraviolet light at ambient temperature. The comparison of morphology, crystal structure, optical properties, and photocatalysis efficiency of the two samples in different seeding processes was conducted. It was found that the ZnO/Si nanowire arrays presented a larger surface area with better crystalline and more uniform ZnO branches on the whole sidewall of Si backbones for the seed layer by atomic layer deposition, which gained a strong light absorption as high as 98% in the ultraviolet and visible range. The samples were proven to have a potential use in photocatalyst, but suffered from photodissolution and memory effect. The mechanism of the photocatalysis was analyzed, and the stability and recycling ability were also evaluated and enhanced.

- Abstract
Background: Climate change and the concurrent change in wildfire events and land use comprehensively affect carbon dynamics in both spatial and temporal dimensions. The purpose of this study was to project the spatial and temporal aspects of carbon storage in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) under these changes from 2006 to 2050. We selected three emission scenarios and produced simulations with the CENTURY model using three General Circulation Models (GCMs) for each scenario. We also incorporated projected land use change and fire occurrence into the carbon accounting., Results: The three GCMs showed increases in maximum and minimum temperature, but precipitation projections varied among GCMs. Total ecosystem carbon increased steadily from 7,942 gC/m
2 in 2006 to 10,234 gC/m2 in 2050 with an annual rate increase of 53 gC/m2 /year. About 56.6% and 27% of the increasing rate was attributed to total live carbon and total soil carbon, respectively. Net Primary Production (NPP) increased slightly from 260 gC/m2 /year in 2006 to 310 gC/m2 /year in 2050 with an annual rate increase of 1.22 gC/m2 /year. Forest clear-cutting and fires resulted in direct carbon removal; however, the rate was low at 2.44 gC/m2 /year during 2006-2050. The area of clear-cutting and wildfires in the GYE would account for 10.87% of total forested area during 2006-2050, but the predictive simulations demonstrated different spatial distributions in national forests and national parks., Conclusions: The GYE is a carbon sink during 2006-2050. The capability of vegetation is almost double that of soil in terms of sequestering extra carbon. Clear-cutting and wildfires in GYE will affect 10.87% of total forested area, but direct carbon removal from clear-cutting and fires is 109.6 gC/m2 , which accounts for only 1.2% of the mean ecosystem carbon level of 9,056 gC/m2 , and thus is not significant.- Published
