RESUMEN
As a common food raw material in daily life, the quality and safety of wheat flour are directly related to people's health. In this study, a model was developed for the rapid identification and detection of three illegal additives in flour, namely azodicarbonamide (ADA), talcum powder, and gypsum powder. This model utilized a combination of near-infrared spectroscopy with chemometric methods. A one-dimensional convolutional neural network was used to reduce data dimensionality, while a support vector machine was applied for non-linear classification to identify illegal additives in flour. The model achieved a calibration set F1 score of 99.38% and accuracy of 99.63%, with a validation set F1 score of 98.81% and accuracy of 98.89%. Two cascaded wavelength selection methods were introduced: The first method involved backward interval partial least squares (BiPLS) combined with an improved binary particle swarm optimization algorithm (IBPSO). The second method utilized the CARS-IBPSO algorithm, which integrated competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS) with IBPSO. The two cascade wavelength selection methods were used to select feature wavelengths associated with additives and construct partial least squares quantitative detection models. The models constructed using CARS-IBPSO selected feature wavelengths for detecting ADA, talcum powder, and gypsum powder exhibited the highest overall performance. The model achieved validation set determination coefficients of 0.9786, 0.9102, and 0.9226, with corresponding to root mean square errors of 0.0024%, 1.3693%, and 1.6506% and residual predictive deviations of 6.8368, 3.5852, and 3.9253, respectively. Near-infrared spectroscopy in combination with convolutional neural network dimensionality reduction and support vector machine classification enabled rapid identification of various illegal additives. The combination of CARS-IBPSO feature wavelength selection and partial least squares regression models facilitated rapid quantitative detection of these additives. This study introduces a new approach for rapidly and accurately identifying and detecting illegal additives in flour.
RESUMEN
CrSbSe3âthe only experimentally validated one-dimensional (1D) ferromagnetic semiconductorâhas recently attracted significant attention. However, all reported synthesis methods for CrSbSe3 nanocrystals are based on top-down methods. Here we report a template selection strategy for the bottom-up synthesis of CrSbSe3 nanoribbons. This strategy relies on comparing the formation energies of potential binary templates to the ternary target product. It enables us to select Sb2Se3 with the highest formation energy, along with its 1D crystal structure, as the template instead of Cr2Se3 with the lowest formation energy, thereby facilitating the transformation from Sb2Se3 to CrSbSe3 by replacing half of the Sb atoms in Sb2Se3 with Cr atoms. The as-prepared CrSbSe3 nanoribbons exhibit a length of approximately 5 µm, a width ranging from 80 to 120 nm, and a thickness of about 5 nm. The single CrSbSe3 nanoribbon presents typical semiconductor behavior and ferromagnetism, confirming the intrinsic ferromagnetism in the 1D CrSbSe3 semiconductor.
RESUMEN
Combining rare earth elements with the halide perovskite structure offers valuable insights into designing nonlead (Pb) luminescent materials. However, most of these compositions tend to form zero-dimensional (0D) networks of metal-halide polyhedra, with higher-dimensional (1D, 2D, and 3D) structures receiving relatively less exploration. Herein, we present synthesis and optical properties of Cs3CeCl6·3H2O, characterized by its unique 1D crystal structure. The conduction band minimum of Cs3CeCl6·3H2O becomes less localized as a result of the increased structural dimension, making it possible for the materials to achieve an efficient electrical injection. For both Cs3CeCl6·3H2O single crystals and nanocrystals, we also observed remarkable luminescence with near-unity photoluminescence quantum yield and exceptional phase stability. Cs3CeCl6·3H2O single crystals demonstrate an X-ray scintillation light yield of 31900 photons/MeV, higher than that of commercial LuAG:Ce (22000 photons/MeV); electrically driven light-emitting diodes fabricated with Cs3CeCl6·3H2O nanocrystals yield the characteristic emission of Ce3+, indicating their potential use in next-generation violet-light-emitting devices.
RESUMEN
Low dimensional (LD) organic metal halide hybrids (OMHHs) have recently emerged as new generation functional materials with exceptional structural and property tunability. Despite the remarkable advances in the development of LD OMHHs, optical properties have been the major functionality extensively investigated for most of LD OMHHs developed to date, while other properties, such as magnetic and electronic properties, remain significantly under-explored. Here we report for the first time the characterization of the magnetic and electronic properties of a 1D OMHH, organic-copper (II) chloride hybrid (C8H22N2)Cu2Cl6. Owing to the antiferromagnetic coupling between Cu atoms through chloride bridges in 1D [Cu2Cl62-]∞ chains, (C8H22N2)Cu2Cl6 is found to exhibit antiferromagnetic ordering with a Néel temperature of 24K. The two-terminal (2T) electrical measurement on a (C8H22N2)Cu2Cl6 single crystal reveals its insulating nature. This work shows the potential of LD OMHHs as a highly tunable quantum material platform for spintronics.
RESUMEN
To address the issue of electronic equipment failure inside the instrument compartment due to aerodynamic heating during high-speed flight. Combining the heat transfer characteristics of phase change materials, a new instrument compartment structure was proposed as the research subject based on phase change materials. While studying the heat transfer characteristics of this structure, one-dimensional phase change heat transfer theoretical model was constructed based on the Lightfoot integral equation method, and the corresponding analytical solution was obtained. To explore the temperature change law of the instrument compartment structure and verify the rationality of the theoretical model, the new thermal experiment was carried out for the instrument compartment structure. Compared with the aluminum alloy instrument compartment structure, the experimental results show that the instrument compartment structure design based on phase change materials could effectively reduce the temperature of the structure itself, and the experimental data are in good agreement with the theoretical calculation results, which verified the rationality of the theoretical model and provided a scientific basis for the practical application of phase change materials in instrument compartment structures.
RESUMEN
Using density functional theory combined with the first principles calculation method of non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF-DFT), we studied the thermoelectric (TE) characteristics of one-dimensional γ-graphdiyne nanoribbons (γ-GDYNRs). The study found that the thermal conductivity of γ-GDYNRs has obvious anisotropy. At the same temperature and geometrical size, the lattice thermal conductivity of zigzag-edged γ-graphdiyne nanoribbons (γ-ZGDYNRs) is much lower than that of armchair-edged γ-graphdiyne nanoribbons (γ-AGDYNRs). We disclose the underlying mechanism for this intrinsic orientation. That is, γ-AGDYNRs have more phonon dispersion over the entire frequency range. Furthermore, the orientation dependence increases when the width of the γ-GDYNRs decreases. These excellent TE properties allow armchair-edged γ-graphdiyne nanoribbons with a planar width of 1.639 nm (γ-Z(2)GDYNRs) to have a higher power factor and lower thermal conductivity, ultimately resulting in a significantly higher TE conversion rate than other γ-GDYNR structures.
RESUMEN
Functional materials are required to meet the needs of society, such as environmental protection, energy storage and conversion, integrated product production, biological and medical processing. bulk nanostructured materials are a research concept that combines nanotechnology with other research fields such as supramolecular chemistry, materials science, and life science to develop logically functional materials from nanodevices. In this review article, nanostructures are synthetized by different methods based on the types and nature of the nanomaterials. In a broad sense "top-down" and "bottom-up" are the two foremost methods to synthesize nanomaterials. In top-down method bulk materials have been reduced to nanomaterials, and in case of bottom-up method, the nanomaterials are synthesized from elementary level. The different methods which are being used to synthesize nanomaterials are chemical vapor deposition method, thermal decomposition, hydrothermal synthesis, solvothermal method, pulsed laser ablation, templating method, combustion method, microwave synthesis, gas phase method, and conventional Sol-Gel method. We also briefly discuss the various physical and chemical methods for producing nanomaterials. We then discuss the applications of functional materials in many areas such as energy storage, supercapacitors, sensors, wastewater treatment, and other biological applications such as drug delivery and drug nanocrystals. Finally, future challenges in materials nanoarchitecture and concepts for further development of functional nanomaterials are briefly discussed.
RESUMEN
A new one-dimensional thiocyanate-bridged cobalt(III) Schiff base complex, namely, catena-poly[[[4-bromo-2-((Z)-{[2-(thiophen-2-yl)ethyl]imino}methyl)phenolato-κ2N,O]cobalt(III)]-µ-thiocyanato-κ2N:S], [Co(SCN)(C13H11BrNOS)2]n or [Co(µ1,3-SCN)L2]n (1), where HL is 4-bromo-2-((Z)-{[2-(thiophene-2-yl)ethyl]imino}methyl)phenol, a bidentate Schiff base prepared from the condensation reaction of 5-bromosalicylaldehyde and 2-(thiophen-2-yl)ethylamine, has been synthesized by stirring Co(ClO4)2·6H2O, the Schiff base HL and ammonium thiocyanate (in a 1:2:1 molar ratio) in ethanol medium. The complex was characterized by FT-IR, electronic spectra and single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) studies. The SC-XRD data suggest that the compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pca21. The CoIII ion in 1 adopts a distorted octahedral geometry, the metal sites being six-coordinated by one thiocyanate N atom and one thiocyanate S atom in apical positions, and by two imine N atoms and two phenolate O atoms from two anionic L- ligands which form the basal plane. The thiocyanate ligand acts as a µ-1,3 bridge, joining neighbouring CoIII atoms and forming a uniform zigzag one-dimensional polymeric chain. The crystallographic data were also used in the Hirshfeld surface (HS) analysis, which aimed to investigate the nature and quantitative significance of any noncovalent intermolecular interactions inside the crystal lattice. The crystal void parameters have also been computed and show the molecules to be tightly packed.
RESUMEN
Dielectric screening plays a vital role in determining physical properties at the nanoscale and affects our ability to detect and characterize nanomaterials using optical techniques. We study how dielectric screening changes electromagnetic fields and many-body effects in nanostructures encapsulated inside carbon nanotubes. First, we show that metallic outer walls reduce the scattering intensity of the inner tube by 2 orders of magnitude compared to that of air-suspended inner tubes, in line with our local field calculations. Second, we find that the dielectric shift of the optical transition energies in the inner walls is greater when the outer tube is metallic than when it is semiconducting. The magnitude of the shift suggests that the excitons in small-diameter inner metallic tubes are thermally dissociated at room temperature if the outer tube is also metallic, and in essence, we observe band-to-band transitions in thin metallic double-walled nanotubes.
RESUMEN
Pulmonary artery stenosis (PAS) often presents in children with congenital heart disease, altering blood flow and pressure during critical periods of growth and development. Variability in stenosis onset, duration, and severity result in variable growth and remodeling of the pulmonary vasculature. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models enable investigation into the hemodynamic impact and altered mechanics associated with PAS. In this study, a one-dimensional (1D) fluid dynamics model was used to simulate hemodynamics throughout the pulmonary arteries of individual animals. The geometry of the large pulmonary arteries was prescribed by animal-specific imaging, whereas the distal vasculature was simulated by a three-element Windkessel model at each terminal vessel outlet. Remodeling of the pulmonary vasculature, which cannot be measured in vivo, was estimated via model-fitted parameters. The large artery stiffness was significantly higher on the left side of the vasculature in the left pulmonary artery (LPA) stenosis group, but neither side differed from the sham group. The sham group exhibited a balanced distribution of total distal vascular resistance, whereas the left side was generally larger in the LPA stenosis group, with no significant differences between groups. In contrast, the peripheral compliance on the right side of the LPA stenosis group was significantly greater than the corresponding side of the sham group. Further analysis indicated the underperfused distal vasculature likely moderately decreased in radius with little change in stiffness given the increase in thickness observed with histology. Ultimately, our model enables greater understanding of pulmonary arterial adaptation due to LPA stenosis and has potential for use as a tool to noninvasively estimate remodeling of the pulmonary vasculature.
RESUMEN
Layered or chain materials have received significant research attention owing to their interesting physical properties, which can dramatically change when the material is thinned from bulk (three-dimensional) to thin two-dimensional sheet or one-dimensional (1D) chain form. Materials with the stoichiometry AX2 with A = Si or Ge and X = S or Se form an especially intriguing semiconducting class. For example, bulk silicon dichalcogenides (SiX2) consist of 1D chains held together by van der Waals forces. Although this structural configuration has the potential to reveal interesting physical phenomena within the 1D limit, obtaining SiX2 single chains has been challenging. We here examine experimentally and theoretically SiX2 materials in the low chain number limit. Carbon nanotubes serve as growth templates and stabilize and protect the structures, and atomic-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy directly identifies the atomic structure. Two distinct chain structures are observed for SiX2. SixGe1-xS2(1-y)Se2y quaternary alloy chains are also synthesized and characterized, demonstrating tunable semiconducting properties at the atomic-chain level. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the band gap of these alloy chains can be widely tuned through composition engineering. This work offers the possibilities for synthesizing and controlling semiconductor compositions at the single-chain limit to tailor material properties.
RESUMEN
The formation of self-assembled domains and chains of monomolecular width of quinacridone (QA) on the vicinal Ag(35 1 1) surface was investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy and low-energy electron diffraction. The focus was on the influence of the steps on the QA structures and their preferential azimuthal orientations with the aim of achieving a selective orientation. After deposition at a sample temperature of 300 K, QA forms the same kind of molecular chains as on the nominally flat Ag(100) surface because of strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds, which we reported in a previous publication [Humberg, N.; Bretel, R.; Eslam, A.; Le Moal, E.; Sokolowski, M. J. Phys. Chem. C 2020, 124, 24861-24873]. The vicinal surface leads to one additional chain orientation, which is parallel to the Ag step edges. However, most chains nucleate on the Ag terraces between steps with four distinct azimuthal orientations that are identical to those on Ag(100), and which are determined by the interactions with the (100) surface. At 300 K, the chains grow across the Ag steps, which do not break the azimuthal chain orientations. In contrast, during the deposition at sample temperatures of 400 and 500 K, the nucleation of the chains takes place at the Ag step edges. Hence, these have a strong influence on the azimuthal orientation of the molecules, resulting in a preferential growth of the chains in two of the four azimuthal orientations. We explain this by the adaptation of favorable adsorption sites, which involve the replacement of Ag atoms by QA molecules with specific azimuthal orientations at the step edges.
RESUMEN
Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are integral to contemporary energy storage, yet current anode material systems struggle to meet the increasing demand for extended range capabilities. This work introduces a novel composite anode material composed of one-dimensional 2H-phase tin disulfide (SnS2) nanoribbons enclosed within cavities of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SnS2@SWCNTs), achieved through precise atomic engineering. Employing aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy, we precisely elucidated the crystal structure of SnS2 within the confines of the SWCNTs. This deliberate design effectively addresses the inherent limitations of SnS2 as a lithium-ion anode material, including its low electrical conductivity, considerable volume expansion effects, and unstable solid electrolyte interface membrane. Testing confirmed that SnS2 transforms into the Li5Sn2 alloy phase after full lithiation and back to SnS2 after delithiation, showing excellent reversibility. The composite also benefits from edge effects, improving lithium storage through stronger binding and lower migration barriers, which were supported by calculations. This pioneering work advances high-performance anode materials for applications.
RESUMEN
One-dimensional materials have gained much attention in the last decades: from carbon nanotubes to ultrathin nanowires to few-atom atomic chains, these can all display unique electronic properties and great potential for next-generation applications. Exfoliable bulk materials could naturally provide a source for one-dimensional wires with a well-defined structure and electronics. Here, we explore a database of one-dimensional materials that could be exfoliated from experimentally known three-dimensional van der Waals compounds, searching for metallic wires that are resilient to Peierls distortions and could act as vias or interconnects for future downscaled electronic devices. As the one-dimensional nature makes these wires particularly susceptible to dynamical instabilities, we carefully characterize vibrational properties to identify stable phases and characterize electronic and dynamical properties. Our search discovers several stable wires; notably, we identify what could be the thinnest possible exfoliable metallic wire, CuC2, coming a step closer to the ultimate limit in material downscaling.
RESUMEN
We theoretically study the effect of electron-electron interactions in one-dimensional partially mixed helical states. These helical states can be realized at the edges of two-dimensional topological insulators with partially broken time-reversal symmetry, resulting in helical gapped states. Using the bosonization method and renormalization group analysis, we identify weak gap, crossover, and strong gap regimes in the phase diagram. We find that strong electron-electron interaction mixes the helicity of the states, leading to the relevant strong gap regime. We investigate the charge and spin density wave correlation functions in different relevancy regimes of the gap mediated by interactions, where in the case of strong repulsive interaction, the spin density wave dominates the charge density wave. Additionally, employing the Memory function technique, we calculate the effect of mixed helicity on the charge transport in a sufficiently long edge. We find a non-uniform temperature dependence for the charge conductivity in both the strong and weak gap regimes with distinct features.
RESUMEN
Mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy can characterize the content and structural changes of macromolecular components in different breast tissues, which can be used for feature extraction and model training by machine learning to achieve accurate classification and recognition of different breast tissues. In parallel, the one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) stands out in the field of deep learning for its ability to efficiently process sequential data, such as spectroscopic signals. In this study, MIR spectra of breast tissue were collected in situ by coupling the self-developed MIR hollow optical fiber attenuated total reflection (HOF-ATR) probe with a Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectrometer. Staging analysis was conducted on the changes in macromolecular content and structure in breast cancer tissues. For the first time, a trinary classification model was established based on 1D-CNN for recognizing normal, paracancerous and cancerous tissues. The final predication results reveal that the 1D-CNN model based on baseline correction (BC) and data augmentation yields more precise classification results, with a total accuracy of 95.09%, exhibiting superior discrimination ability than machine learning models of SVM-DA (90.00%), SVR (88.89%), PCA-FDA (67.78%) and PCA-KNN (70.00%). The experimental results suggest that the application of 1D-CNN enables accurate classification and recognition of different breast tissues, which can be considered as a precise, efficient and intelligent novel method for breast cancer diagnosis.

We show an unexpected aggregation phenomenon of a long oligoyne (Py[16]) with 16 contiguous triple bonds and endcapped with bulky 3,5-bi(3,5-bis-tert-butylphenyl)pyridine groups. Aggregation of 1D π-conjugated oligoyne chains is rare given the minimal π-π intermolecular interactions as well as its flexibility that works against self-assembly. In dilute solutions, the reversible aggregation of Py[16] initiates at low temperature in the range of 140-180â K, and is not observed for shorter oligoynes in this series. Cryogenic UV/Vis electronic absorption spectra and vibrational Raman spectra with different laser wavelength lines tuning from in-resonance to off-resonance conditions have been used to extract the vibrational features characterizing the monomer and aggregate species. Theoretical calculations complement the spectroscopic findings.
RESUMEN
Analytical expressions for the low-field mobility of charge carrier gases with three-(3D), two-(2D) and one-(1D) dimensionalities are obtained. Multi-ion ionized impurities scattering, acoustic and polar optic phonons are considered as scattering mechanisms. The calculated values of mobility are compared to known experimental data for bulk (3D) n-and p-type wurtzite, n-type zinc-blende GaN crystals and low dimensional (2D and 1D) ternary GaAlN compounds. The resulting analytical expressions give the dependences of mobility on dimensionality of charge carrier gas, its density, effective mass, temperature and confining dimensions. A comparison of the experimental and calculated temperature dependences of the mobility in bulk GaN crystals (3D) and in AlGaN/GaN nanowires (1D) shows that the mobility atT>100Kis determined by the scattering of charge carriers by polar optical phonons with an energy of 91.2 meV. The temperature dependences of mobility in Al0.25Ga0.75N/GaN heterostructures (2D) atT>100Kare in consistent with experiment for electron scattering by polar optical phonons with a noticeably higher energy of 160 meV. We associate this fact with the heterointerface, which according to well-known theoretical studies can change both the strength of electron polar optical phonons scattering and the energy of the phonons.
RESUMEN
Designing high-performance polarization-sensitive photodetectors is essential for photonic device applications. Anisotropic one-dimensional (1D) van der Waals (vdW) materials have provided a promising platform to that end. Despite significant advances in 1D vdW photonic devices, their performance is still far from delivering practical potential. Herein, we propose the design of high-performance polarization-sensitive photodetectors using unique 1D vdW materials. By leveraging the chemical vapor transport technique, we successfully fabricate high-quality 1D vdW Nb2Pd1-xSe5 (x = 0.29) nanowires. The 1D vdW Nb2Pd1-xSe5 photodetector exhibits a high mobility of â¼56 cm2/(V s) and superior photoresponse performance, including a high responsivity of 1A/W and an ultrafast response time of â¼8 µs under 638 nm illumination. Moreover, the 1D vdW Nb2Pd1-xSe5 photodetector demonstrates excellent polarization-sensitive photoresponse with a degree of linear polarization (DOLP) up to 0.85 and can be modulated by adjusting the gate voltage, laser power density, and wavelength. Those exceptional performance are believed to be relevant to the symmetry-reduction induced by the partial occupation of Pd sites. This study offers feasible approaches to enhance the anisotropy of 1D vdW materials and the modulation of their polarization-sensitive photoresponse, which may provide deep insights into the physical origin of anisotropic properties of 1D vdW materials.
RESUMEN
Poor interfacial quality and low refractive index contrast (Δn) are critical challenges for the development of high-performance one-dimensional photonic crystals (1DPhCs) via solution methods that impede their optical efficiency. Herein, we introduce an innovative approach by hybridizing hollow SiO2 with poly(vinyl alcohol), referred to as PHS, followed by alternate assembly with TiO2 via spin-coating, achieving a 1DPhC with Δn = 0.76 at the wavelength of 550 nm. This method circumvents the need for high-temperature treatment and complex curing conditions, resulting in a 1DPhC with superior interfacial and optical characteristics. By adjusting the thickness of the PHS layers, we can finely tune the reflectance spectrum, attaining over 99% reflectance at the photonic band gap. Furthermore, 1DPhC demonstrates excellent adhesion to polycarbonate substrates and retains its optimal optical performance even after rigorous environmental testing, including hygrothermal cycles, exposure to hot water, friction, and solvent sonication. This research paves the way for the facile fabrication of high-performance 1DPhCs under mild conditions, offering new perspectives for photonic material processing.
