Organic electroluminescent material, one of the centerpieces of OLEDs, has been the focus of studies by many material scientists. To obtain high luminosity and to keep material costs low, a few remarkable design concepts have been developed. Aggregation-induced emission （AIE） materials were invented to overcome the common fluorescence-quenching problem, and cross-dipole stacking of fluorescent molecules was shown to be an effective method to get high solid-state luminescence. To exceed the limit of internal quantum efficiency of conventional fluorescent materials, phosphorescent materials were successfully applied in highly efficient electroluminescent devices. Most recently, delayed flu- orescent materials via reverse-intersystem crossing （RISC） from triplet to singlet and the ＂hot exciton＂ materials based on hy- bridized local and charge-transfer （HLCT） states were developed to he a new generation of low-cost luminescent materials as efficient as phosphorescent materials. In terms of the device-fabrication process, solution-processible small molecular lumi- nescent materials possess the advantages of high purity （vs. polymers） and low procession cost （vs. vacuum deposition）, which are garnering them increasing attention. Herein, we review the progress of the development of small-molecule luminescent materials with different design concepts and features, and also briefly examine future development tendencies of luminescent materials.展开更多

We report a linear-grating hybridized electromagnetic-triboelectric nanogenerator for scavenging the mechanical energy generated from sliding motions to sustainably power certain portable electronics. The hybridized nano- generator consists of a slider and a stator in the structural design, and possesses a 66-segment triboelectric nanogenerator （TENG） and a 9-segment electromagnetic generator （EMG） in the functional design. At a sliding acceleration of 20 m/s2 the hybridized nanogenerator can deliver maximum powers of 102.8 mW for the TENG at a loading resistance of 0.4 Mr2 and 103.3 mW for the EMG at a loading resistance of 6 kf2.

A hybridized electromagnetic-triboelectric nanogenerator (HETNG) is prepared to harvest biomechanical energy during human balance control processes and achieve significant monitoring functions. The HETNG is composed of a symmetrical pendulum structure and a cylinder magnet rolling inside. Four coils are divided into two groups which form into two electromagnetic generators (EMGs). Besides, two spatial electrodes attached to the inner wall constitute a freestanding mode triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG). With a rectification circuit, the HETNG presents a high output power with a peak value of 0.55 W at a load of 160 Ω. Along with human balance control processes during walking, the HETNG can harvest biomechanical energy at different positions on the trunk. Moreover, the HETNG applied in artificial limb has been preliminarily simulated with the positions on thigh and foot, for monitoring the actions of squat and stand up, and lifting the leg up and down. For the elder that walks slowly with a walking aid, the HETNG equipped on the walking aid can help to record the motions of forwarding and unexpected falling, which is useful for calling for help. This work shows the potential of biomechanical energy-driven HETNG for powering portable electronics and monitoring human motions, also shows significant concerns to people lacked action capability or disabled.展开更多

Herein, we demonstrate two examples of D-^-A structures capable to finely modulate the excited state properties and arrangement of energy levels, TPA-AN-BP and CZP-AN-BP, which possess the same acceptor and n-bridge but different donor. The investigation of their photophysical properties and DFT calculation revealed that the D-n-A structure with proper donor, n-bridge and acceptor can result in separation of frontier molecular orbitals on the corresponding donor and acceptor with an obvious overlap on the n-bridge, resulting in a hybridized local and charge-transfer （HLCT） excited state with high photoluminescent （PL） efficiencies. Meanwhile, their singlet and triplet states are arranged on corresponding moie- ties with large energy gap between T2 and T1, and a small energy gap between S1 and T2, which favor the reverse intersystem crossing （RISC） from high-lying triplet levels to singlet levels. As a result, the sky-blue emission non-doped OLED based on the TPA-AN-BP reached maximum external quantum efficiency （EQE） of 4.39% and a high exciton utilization efficiency （EUE） of 77%. This study demonstrates a new strategy to construct highly effi- cient OLED materials.展开更多

The perpormences of three-breed crossbred （Suffolk ♂× DH ♀, Suffolk ♂× TH ♀, Texel ♂× SH ♀, Texel ♂× DH ♀, Dorset ♂× TH ♀, and Dorset ♂× SH ♀ ） were tested. The results indicated that there were genetic polymorphisms at six microsatellite loci in six sheep populations. Six microsatellite loci could be used for genetic diversity evaluation in sheep populations. The order of three-breed heterosis by the analysis of genetic relationship from large to small was Texel ♂× DH ♀, Suffolk ♂× DH ♀, Suffolki ♂× TH ♀, Texel ♂× SH ♀, Dorset ♂×TH ♀, and Dorset ♂× SH ♀, which was in accordance with the testing results on actual heterosis. These results showed that prediction of the best three-breed hybridized combination among sheep breeds by microsatellite DNA polymorphism was feasible, which will have an important value on the reasonable utilization of introduced meat sheep and sheep breeding in our country in the future.展开更多

It integrates the advantages of Ant System (AS) and Ant Colony System (ACS) of solving optimization problems. The main focus and core of the HACO algorithm are based on annexing the strengths of the AS, ACO and the Max-Min Ant System (MMAS) previously proposed by various researchers at one time or the order. In this paper, the HACO algorithm for solving optimization problems employs new Transition Probability relations with a Jump transition probability relation which indicates the point or path at which the desired optimum value has been met. Also, it brings to play a new pheromone updating rule and introduces the pheromone evaporation residue that calculates the amount of pheromone left after updating which serves as a guide to the successive ant traversing the path and diverse local search approaches. Regarding the computational efficiency of the HACO algorithm, we observe that the HACO algorithm can find very good solutions in a short time, as the algorithm has been tested on a number of combinatorial optimization problems and results shown to compare favourably with analytical results. This strength can be combined with other metaheuristic approaches in the future work to solve complex combinatorial optimization problems.展开更多

The unpoled PVNPAK film exhibits a second harmonic generation （SHG） coefficient of 4.7 pm/V due to the possibility of self-alignment of the azo chromophore. Significant enhancement of photoconductivity is noticed with the increase of CdS nanoparticles concentration. The photorefractive property of the polymer nanocomposites were determined by two-beam coupling （TBC） experiment. The TBC gain and diffraction efficiency of 11.89 cm-1 and 3.2% were obtained for PVNPAK/CdS at zero electrical field.展开更多

By tuning the relative positions of the dot levels, we illustrate the existence of Majorana fermions and show that the Majorana feimions will either survive separately on single dots or distribute themselves among different dots with tunable probabilities. As a result, different physical mechanisms appear, including local Andreev reflection（LAR）,cross Andreev reflection（CAR）, and cross resonant tunneling（CRT）. The resulting characteristics may be used to reveal the unique properties of Majorana fermions. In addition, we discuss the spin-polarized transports and find a pure spin current and a spin filter effect due to the joint effect of CRT and CAR, which is important for designing spintronic devices.展开更多

Among them,the solar cell as a solar-to-electrical conversion device has been attracted enormous interest to improve the efficiency. However, the ability to generate electricity is highly dependent on the weather conditions,in other words, there is nearly zero power output in dark-light conditions, such as rainy, cloudy, and night, lowering the monolithic power generation capacity. Here, we present a bifunctional polyaniline film via chemical bath deposition, which can harvest energy from the rain, yielding an induced current of 2.57 μA and voltage of 65.5 μV under the stimulus of real raindrop. When incorporating the functional PANi film into the traditional dye sensitized solar cell as a counter electrode, the hybridized photovoltaic can experimentally realize the enhanced output power via harvesting energy from rainy and sunny days. The current work may show a new path for development of advanced solar cells in the future.展开更多

The investigation of their photophysical properties and DFT calculation revealed that the D-n-A structure with proper donor, n-bridge and acceptor can result in separation of frontier molecular orbitals on the corresponding donor and acceptor with an obvious overlap on the n-bridge, resulting in a hybridized local and charge-transfer （HLCT） excited state with high photoluminescent （PL） efficiencies. Meanwhile, their singlet and triplet states are arranged on corresponding moie- ties with large energy gap between T2 and T1, and a small energy gap between S1 and T2, which favor the reverse intersystem crossing （RISC） from high-lying triplet levels to singlet levels. As a result, the sky-blue emission non-doped OLED based on the TPA-AN-BP reached maximum external quantum efficiency （EQE） of 4.39% and a high exciton utilization efficiency （EUE） of 77%. This study demonstrates a new strategy to construct highly effi- cient OLED materials.

文摘The occurrence of massif-type anorthosite intrusions is a widespread Proterozoic phenomenon.They are usually associated with gabbroic,charnockitic,and granitic rocks,comprising the so-called anorthositemangerite-charnockite-granite(AMCG)suite.Although these rocks have been extensively studied worldwide,several aspects concerning their formation remain unsettled.Among them,the magma source and the tectonic setting are the most important.To evaluate these issues,we first compiled geochemical and isotopic data of Proterozoic anorthosite massifs and AMCG suites worldwide and stored it in a database named datAMCG.This plethora of data allows us to make some important interpretations.We argue that the wide-ranging multi-isotopic composition of this group of rocks reflects varying proportions of juvenile mantle-derived melts and crustal components.We interpret that the precursor magmas of most massive anorthosite bodies and associated mafic rocks have a mantle-dominated origin.However,we highlight that a crustal component is indispensable to generate these lithologies.Adding variable amounts of this material during succeeding multi-stage assimilation-fractional crystallization(AFC)processes gives these intrusions their typical mantle-crustal hybrid isotopic traits.In contrast,a crustaldominant origin with a complementary mantle component is interpreted for most MCG rocks.In summary,the isotopic information in datAMCG indicates that both sources are necessary to generate AMCG rocks.Therefore,we suggest that hybridized magmas with different mantle-crust proportions originate these rocks.This interpretation might offer a more nuanced and accurate depiction of this phenomenon in future work instead of choosing a single-sourced model as in the past decades.Finally,tectonomagmatic diagrams suggest that the rocks under study were likely generated in a tectonic environment that transitioned between collision and post-collisional extension,sometimes involving subduction-modified mantle sources.This interpretation is supported by

文摘The allelic frequency, the polymorphic information contents （PIC）, the number of effective alleles, the heterozygosity, and the genetic distances were studied in three imported meat sheep （Suffolk, Dorset, Texel） and their F1 crossbred obtained from those crossed with indigenous Small Tail Hun Sheep （Suffolk♂× Small Tail Hun Sheep, SH; Dorset ♂× Small Tail Han Sheep♂, DH; Texel♂× Small Tail Hart Sheep ♀, TH） using six microsatellite DNA loci. The perpormences of three-breed crossbred （Suffolk ♂× DH ♀, Suffolk ♂× TH ♀, Texel ♂× SH ♀, Texel ♂× DH ♀, Dorset ♂× TH ♀, and Dorset ♂× SH ♀ ） were tested. The results indicated that there were genetic polymorphisms at six microsatellite loci in six sheep populations. Six microsatellite loci could be used for genetic diversity evaluation in sheep populations. The order of three-breed heterosis by the analysis of genetic relationship from large to small was Texel ♂× DH ♀, Suffolk ♂× DH ♀, Suffolki ♂× TH ♀, Texel ♂× SH ♀, Dorset ♂×TH ♀, and Dorset ♂× SH ♀, which was in accordance with the testing results on actual heterosis. These results showed that prediction of the best three-breed hybridized combination among sheep breeds by microsatellite DNA polymorphism was feasible, which will have an important value on the reasonable utilization of introduced meat sheep and sheep breeding in our country in the future.
文摘This paper proposes a Hybridized Ant Colony Optimization (HACO) algorithm. It integrates the advantages of Ant System (AS) and Ant Colony System (ACS) of solving optimization problems. The main focus and core of the HACO algorithm are based on annexing the strengths of the AS, ACO and the Max-Min Ant System (MMAS) previously proposed by various researchers at one time or the order. In this paper, the HACO algorithm for solving optimization problems employs new Transition Probability relations with a Jump transition probability relation which indicates the point or path at which the desired optimum value has been met. Also, it brings to play a new pheromone updating rule and introduces the pheromone evaporation residue that calculates the amount of pheromone left after updating which serves as a guide to the successive ant traversing the path and diverse local search approaches. Regarding the computational efficiency of the HACO algorithm, we observe that the HACO algorithm can find very good solutions in a short time, as the algorithm has been tested on a number of combinatorial optimization problems and results shown to compare favourably with analytical results. This strength can be combined with other metaheuristic approaches in the future work to solve complex combinatorial optimization problems.

文摘We report an organic/inorganic hybridized nanocomposite consisting of a bi-functional poly（N-vinyl）-3-[p-nitrophenylazo]carbazolyl serves as a polymeric charge-transporting and second-order nonliner optical matrix, and CdS nanoparticles as photosensitizers to manifest photorefractive （PR） effect. The unpoled PVNPAK film exhibits a second harmonic generation （SHG） coefficient of 4.7 pm/V due to the possibility of self-alignment of the azo chromophore. Significant enhancement of photoconductivity is noticed with the increase of CdS nanoparticles concentration. The photorefractive property of the polymer nanocomposites were determined by two-beam coupling （TBC） experiment. The TBC gain and diffraction efficiency of 11.89 cm-1 and 3.2% were obtained for PVNPAK/CdS at zero electrical field.

文摘Nonequilibrium electronic transports through a system hosting three quantum dots hybridized with superconductors are investigated. By tuning the relative positions of the dot levels, we illustrate the existence of Majorana fermions and show that the Majorana feimions will either survive separately on single dots or distribute themselves among different dots with tunable probabilities. As a result, different physical mechanisms appear, including local Andreev reflection（LAR）,cross Andreev reflection（CAR）, and cross resonant tunneling（CRT）. The resulting characteristics may be used to reveal the unique properties of Majorana fermions. In addition, we discuss the spin-polarized transports and find a pure spin current and a spin filter effect due to the joint effect of CRT and CAR, which is important for designing spintronic devices.

文摘Pursuit of energy-harvesting or-storage materials to realize outstanding electricity output from nature has been regarded as a promising strategy to resolve the energy-lack issue in the future. Among them,the solar cell as a solar-to-electrical conversion device has been attracted enormous interest to improve the efficiency. However, the ability to generate electricity is highly dependent on the weather conditions,in other words, there is nearly zero power output in dark-light conditions, such as rainy, cloudy, and night, lowering the monolithic power generation capacity. Here, we present a bifunctional polyaniline film via chemical bath deposition, which can harvest energy from the rain, yielding an induced current of 2.57 μA and voltage of 65.5 μV under the stimulus of real raindrop. When incorporating the functional PANi film into the traditional dye sensitized solar cell as a counter electrode, the hybridized photovoltaic can experimentally realize the enhanced output power via harvesting energy from rainy and sunny days. The current work may show a new path for development of advanced solar cells in the future.
文摘Cloud storage is widely used by large companies to store vast amounts of data and files,offering flexibility,financial savings,and security.However,information shoplifting poses significant threats,potentially leading to poor performance and privacy breaches.Blockchain-based cognitive computing can help protect and maintain information security and privacy in cloud platforms,ensuring businesses can focus on business development.To ensure data security in cloud platforms,this research proposed a blockchain-based Hybridized Data Driven Cognitive Computing(HD2C)model.However,the proposed HD2C framework addresses breaches of the privacy information of mixed participants of the Internet of Things(IoT)in the cloud.HD2C is developed by combining Federated Learning(FL)with a Blockchain consensus algorithm to connect smart contracts with Proof of Authority.The“Data Island”problem can be solved by FL’s emphasis on privacy and lightning-fast processing,while Blockchain provides a decentralized incentive structure that is impervious to poisoning.FL with Blockchain allows quick consensus through smart member selection and verification.The HD2C paradigm significantly improves the computational processing efficiency of intelligent manufacturing.Extensive analysis results derived from IIoT datasets confirm HD2C superiority.When compared to other consensus algorithms,the Blockchain PoA’s foundational cost is significant.The accuracy and memory utilization evaluation results predict the total benefits of the system.In comparison to the values 0.004 and 0.04,the value of 0.4 achieves good accuracy.According to the experiment results,the number of transactions per second has minimal impact on memory requirements.The findings of this study resulted in the development of a brand-new IIoT framework based on blockchain technology.

文摘The shell structure design has been recognized as a highly efficient strategy to buffer the severe volume expansion and consecutive pulverization of conversion-type anodes.Nevertheless,construction of a functional shell with a stabilized structure that meets the demands of both high electronic conductivity and feasible pathways for Na^(+)ions has been a challenge so far.Herein,we design a two-in-one shell configuration for bimetal selenides to achieve fast sodium storage within broadened voltage windows.The hybridized shell,which benefits from the combination of titanium dioxide quantum dots and amorphous carbon,can not only effectively buffer the strain and maintain structural integrity but also allow facile and reversible transport of electrons and Na^(+)uptake for electrode materials during sodiation/desodiation processes,resulting in increased reaction kinetics and diffusion of sodium ions,conferring many benefits to the functionality of conversion-type electrode materials.As a representative material,Ni-CoSe_(2) with such structural engineering shows a reversible capacity of 515 mAh g^(−1)at 0.1 A g^(−1)and a stable capacity of 416 mAh g^(−1)even at 6.4 A g^(−1);more than 80%of the capacity at 0.1 A g^(−1)could be preserved,so that this strategy holds great promise for designing fast-charging conversion-type anodes in the future.

文摘Energy harvesting and power transmission is a significant challenge for the self-powered technologies towards mobile electronic devices.Here,we propose a hybridized energy harvester to complement each other's strengths for simultaneously scavenging multiple types of energy and then wirelessly transmit the power.The harvester consists of electromagnetic-triboelectric nanogenerator units for collecting rotational energy and a commercial water-proof flexible solar cell.At a rotation rate of 500 rpm,the output current of electromagnetic-triboelectric nanogenerator units can reach about 630 mA through energy management.Moreover,the power harvested by hybridized energy harvester can be wirelessly transmitted up to a distance of about 100 cm in real time to charge mobile phone,anemometer,and hygrometer based on self-resonant coils.The hybridized energy harvester with wireless power transmission has potential applications in large-scale energy collection,long-distance wireless power transmission and sustainably driving mobile electronic devices.

文摘Hybridized local and charge-transfer(HLCT)excitedstate fluorophores,which enable full exciton utilization through a reverse intersystem crossing fromhigh-lying triplet states to singlet state,have attracted increasing attention toward organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs)application.Herein,we report three D-π-A-π-D-type isomers o-2CzBT,m-2CzBT,and p-2CzBT by adjusting the donor(D)units from ortho-,meta-,to para-substituted positions with the acceptor(A)core unit,respectively.The HLCT properties of the three compounds are evidently confirmed by theoretical calculations,solvatochromic behaviors,and transient decay lifetimes analyses.As the substituted position changes from the ortho-,meta-,and para-positions,the reduced steric hindrance brings about decreased torsional angle between D and A moieties,resulting in increased oscillator strength.Accordingly,the parasubstituted p-2CzBT is endowed with a more locally excited component that accounts for faster radiative decay,leading to a higher fluorescent efficiency than that of o-2CzBT and m-2CzBT.As expected,p-2CzBT enables its nondoped and doped OLEDs with higher external quantum efficiencies(EQEs)of 12.3% and 15.0%,respectively,which are among the state-ofthe-art efficiencies of HLCT-based OLEDs.Moreover,o-2CzBT and m-2CzBT are also utilized as host materials for high-performance OLEDs,thus extending the application of HLCT materials.
