In addition to temperature, some other parameters, such as pressure, loading and size, can also tune the liquid dynamics and induce glass transition, which makes the situation more complicated. Here, we performed molecular dynamics simulations for Ni_(50)Zr_(50) bulk liquid and nanodroplet to study the dynamics evolution in the complex multivariate phase space, especially along the isotherm with the change of pressure or droplet size. It is found that the short-time Debye–Waller factor universally determines the long-time relaxation dynamics no matter how the temperature, pressure or size changes. The basic correlation even holds at the local atomic scale. This finding provides general understanding of the microscopic mechanism of dynamic arrest and dynamic heterogeneity.展开更多

Herein, we present a 2.5-dimensionaldynamic structural color based on nanogratings of heterogeneous materials, which were obtained by interweaving a pH-responsive hydrogelwith an IP-L photoresist. Transverse gratings printed with pH-responsive hydrogels elongated the period of longitudinal grating in the swollenstate, resulting in pH-tuned structural colors at a 45° incidence. Moreover, the patterned encoding and array printing of dynamic structuralcolors were achieved using grayscale stripe images to accurately encode the periods and heights of the nanogrid structures. Overall, dynamicstructural color networks exhibit promising potential for applications in information encryption and in situ sensing for microfluidic chips.展开更多

文摘Eukaryotic deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA)is wrapped around histone octamers(HOs)to form nucleosome core particles(NCPs),which in turn interact with linker DNA and linker histones to assemble chromatin fibers with more complex,high-order structures.The molecular properties of chromatin are dynamically regulated by several factors,such as post-translational modifications and effector proteins,to maintain genome stability.In the past two decades,high-resolution techniques have led to many breakthroughs in understanding the molecular mechanisms that govern chromatin regulation.Nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)has emerged as one of the major techniques in this field,providing new insights into the nucleosomes and nucleosome-protein complexes in different states ranging from soluble form to condensed states.Solution-state NMR has proven valuable in elucidating the conformational dynamics and molecular interactions for histone N-terminal tails,histone core regions and DNA with the combination of specific isotopic labeling.Solid-state NMR,which is not constrained by the high molecular weights of complexes like nucleosomes,has been applied to capture the structural and dynamical characteristics of both flexible tails and rigid histone core regions in nucleosomes and their complexes with effector proteins.Furthermore,the combination of the two techniques allows tracking molecular properties of nucleosomes during phase separation processes,which potentially play essential roles in chromatin regulation.This review summarizes recent advances in NMR studies of chromatin structure and dynamics.It highlighted that NMR revealed unique molecular characteristics for nucleosomes that are often invisible experimentally by other techniques like cryogenic electron microscopy(cryo-EM)and X-ray diffraction(XRD).I envision that,with future ef-forts such as the development of NMR methods and optimization of sample production protocols,solution-state NMR and solid-state NMR will provide invaluable information to expand our understanding of chromatin activity and its regulatory processes.
文摘We present a formalism of charge self-consistent dynamical mean field theory(DMFT)in combination with densityfunctional theory(DFT)within the linear combination of numerical atomic orbitals(LCNAO)framework.We implementedthe charge self-consistent DFT+DMFT formalism by interfacing a full-potential all-electron DFT code with threehybridization expansion-based continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo impurity solvers.The benchmarks on several 3d,4fand 5f strongly correlated electron systems validated our formalism and implementation.Furthermore,within the LCANOframework,our formalism is general and the code architecture is extensible,so it can work as a bridge merging differentLCNAO DFT packages and impurity solvers to do charge self-consistent DFT+DMFT calculations.

文摘The dramatic temperature-dependence of liquids dynamics has attracted considerable scientific interests and efforts in the past decades, but the physics of which remains elusive. In addition to temperature, some other parameters, such as pressure, loading and size, can also tune the liquid dynamics and induce glass transition, which makes the situation more complicated. Here, we performed molecular dynamics simulations for Ni_(50)Zr_(50) bulk liquid and nanodroplet to study the dynamics evolution in the complex multivariate phase space, especially along the isotherm with the change of pressure or droplet size. It is found that the short-time Debye–Waller factor universally determines the long-time relaxation dynamics no matter how the temperature, pressure or size changes. The basic correlation even holds at the local atomic scale. This finding provides general understanding of the microscopic mechanism of dynamic arrest and dynamic heterogeneity.

文摘Dynamic structuralcolors can change in response todifferent environmental stimuli.This ability remains effectiveeven when the size of the speciesresponsible for the structural coloris reduced to a few micrometers,providing a promising sensingmechanism for solving microenvironmentalsensing problems inmicro-robotics and microfluidics.However, the lack of dynamicstructural colors that can encoderapidly, easily integrate, and accuratelyreflect changes in physical quantities hinders their use in microscale sensing applications. Herein, we present a 2.5-dimensionaldynamic structural color based on nanogratings of heterogeneous materials, which were obtained by interweaving a pH-responsive hydrogelwith an IP-L photoresist. Transverse gratings printed with pH-responsive hydrogels elongated the period of longitudinal grating in the swollenstate, resulting in pH-tuned structural colors at a 45° incidence. Moreover, the patterned encoding and array printing of dynamic structuralcolors were achieved using grayscale stripe images to accurately encode the periods and heights of the nanogrid structures. Overall, dynamicstructural color networks exhibit promising potential for applications in information encryption and in situ sensing for microfluidic chips.

文摘Wearable wristband systems leverage deep learning to revolutionize hand gesture recognition in daily activities.Unlike existing approaches that often focus on static gestures and require extensive labeled data,the proposed wearable wristband with selfsupervised contrastive learning excels at dynamic motion tracking and adapts rapidly across multiple scenarios.It features a four-channel sensing array composed of an ionic hydrogel with hierarchical microcone structures and ultrathin flexible electrodes,resulting in high-sensitivity capacitance output.Through wireless transmission from a Wi-Fi module,the proposed algorithm learns latent features from the unlabeled signals of random wrist movements.Remarkably,only few-shot labeled data are sufficient for fine-tuning the model,enabling rapid adaptation to various tasks.The system achieves a high accuracy of 94.9%in different scenarios,including the prediction of eight-direction commands,and air-writing of all numbers and letters.The proposed method facilitates smooth transitions between multiple tasks without the need for modifying the structure or undergoing extensive task-specific training.Its utility has been further extended to enhance human–machine interaction over digital platforms,such as game controls,calculators,and three-language login systems,offering users a natural and intuitive way of communication.

文摘Gas quenching and vacuum quenching process are widely applied to accelerate solvent volatilization to induce nucleation of perovskites in blade-coating method.In this work,we found these two pre-crystallization processes lead to different order of crystallization dynamics within the perovskite thin film,resulting in the differences of additive distribution.We then tailor-designed an additive molecule named 1,3-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)thiourea to obtain films with fewer defects and holes at the buried interface,and prepared perovskite solar cells with a certified efficiency of 23.75%.Furthermore,this work also demonstrates an efficiency of 20.18%for the large-area perovskite solar module(PSM)with an aperture area of 60.84 cm^(2).The PSM possesses remarkable continuous operation stability for maximum power point tracking of T_(90)>1000 h in ambient air.

文摘Efficient and stable photocathodes with versatility are of significance in photoassisted lithium-ion batteries(PLIBs),while there is always a request on fast carrier transport in electrochemical active photocathodes.Present work proposes a general approach of creating bulk heterojunction to boost the carrier mobility of photocathodes by simply laser assisted embedding of plasmonic nanocrystals.When employed in PLIBs,it was found effective for synchronously enhanced photocharge separation and transport in light charging process.Additionally,experimental photon spectroscopy,finite difference time domain method simulation and theoretical analyses demonstrate that the improved carrier dynamics are driven by the plasmonic-induced hot electron injection from metal to TiO_(2),as well as the enhanced conductivity in TiO2 matrix due to the formation of oxygen vacancies after Schottky contact.Benefiting from these merits,several benchmark values in performance of TiO2-based photocathode applied in PLIBs are set,including the capacity of 276 mAh g^(−1) at 0.2 A g^(−1) under illumination,photoconversion efficiency of 1.276%at 3 A g^(−1),less capacity and Columbic efficiency loss even through 200 cycles.These results exemplify the potential of the bulk heterojunction strategy in developing highly efficient and stable photoassisted energy storage systems.
文摘It is of great scientific significance to construct a 3D dynamic structural color with a special color effect based on the microlens array.However,the problems of imperfect mechanisms and poor color quality need to be solved.A method of 3D structural color turning on periodic metasurfaces fabricated by the microlens array and self-assembly technology was proposed in this study.In the experiment,Polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)flexible film was used as a substrate,and SiO2 microspheres were scraped into grooves of the PDMS film to form 3D photonic crystal structures.By adjusting the number of blade-coated times and microsphere concentrations,high-saturation structural color micropatterns were obtained.These films were then matched with microlens arrays to produce dynamic graphics with iridescent effects.The results showed that by blade-coated two times and SiO2 microsphere concentrations of 50%are the best conditions.This method demonstrates the potential for being widely applied in the anticounterfeiting printing and ultra-high-resolution display.

文摘Ribonucleic acid(RNA)structures and dynamics play a crucial role in elucidating RNA functions and facilitating the design of drugs targeting RNA and RNA-protein complexes.However,obtaining RNA structures using conventional biophysical techniques,such as Xray crystallography and solution nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR),presents challenges due to the inherent flexibility and susceptibility to degradation of RNA.In recent years,solid-state NMR(SSNMR)has rapidly emerged as a promising alternative technique for characterizing RNA structure and dynamics.SSNMR has several distinct advantages,including flexibility in sample states,the ability to capture dynamic features of RNA in solid form,and suitability to character RNAs in various sizes.Recent decade witnessed the growth of ^(1)H-detected SSNMR methods on RNA,which targeted elucidating RNA topology and base pair dynamics in solid state.They have been applied to determine the topology of RNA segment in human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)genome and the base pair dynamics of riboswitch RNA.These advancements have expanded the utility of SSNMR techniques within the RNA research field.This review provides a comprehensive discussion of recent progress in ^(1)H-detected SSNMR investigations into RNA structure and dynamics.We focus on the established ^(1)H-detected SSNMR methods,sample preparation protocols,and the implementation of rapid data acquisition approaches.

文摘Using molecular dynamics methods,simulations of collision cascades in polycrystalline tungsten(W)have been conducted in this study,including different primary-knock-on atom(PKA)directions,grain sizes,and PKA energies between 1 keV and 150 keV.The results indicate that a smaller grain size leads to more defects forming in grain boundary regions during cascade processes.The impact of high-energy PKA may cause a certain degree of distortion of the grain boundaries,which has a higher probability in systems with smaller grain sizes and becomes more pronounced as the PKA energy increases.The direction of PKA can affect the formation and diffusion pathways of defects.When the PKA direction is perpendicular to the grain boundary,defects preferentially form near the grain boundary regions;by contrast,defects are more inclined to form in the interior of the grains.These results are of great significance for comprehending the changes in the performance of polycrystalline W under the high-energy fusion environments and can provide theoretical guidance for further optimization and application of W-based plasma materials.

文摘Explorations into new electrolytes have highlighted the critical impact of solvation structure on battery performance,Classical molecular dynamics(CMD)using semi-empirical force fields has become an essential tool for simulating solvation structures.However,mainstream force fields often lack accuracy in describing strong ion-solvent interactions,causing disparities between CMD simulations and experimental observations.Although some empirical methods have been employed in some of the studies to address this issue,their effectiveness has been limited.Our CMD research,supported by quantum chemical calculations and experimental data,reveals that the solvation structure is influenced not only by the charge model but also by the polarization description.Previous empirical approaches that focused solely on adjusting ion-solvent interaction strengths overlooked the importance of polarization effects.Building on this insight,we propose integrating the Drude polarization model into mainstream force fields and verify its feasibility in carbonate,ether,and nitrile electrolytes.Our experimental results demonstrate that this approach significantly enhances the accuracy of CMD-simulated solvation structures.This work is expected to provide a more reliable CMD method for electrolyte design,shielding researchers from the pitfalls of erroneous simulation outcomes.
