RESUMO
Forest fires can destroy forest and inflict great damage to the ecosystem. Fortunately, forest fire detection with video has achieved remarkable results in enabling timely and accurate fire warnings. However, the traditional forest fire detection method relies heavily on artificially designed features; CNN-based methods require a large number of parameters. In addition, forest fire detection is easily disturbed by fog. To solve these issues, a lightweight YOLOX-L and defogging algorithm-based forest fire detection method, GXLD, is proposed. GXLD uses the dark channel prior to defog the image to obtain a fog-free image. After the lightweight improvement of YOLOX-L by GhostNet, depth separable convolution, and SENet, we obtain the YOLOX-L-Light and use it to detect the forest fire in the fog-free image. To evaluate the performance of YOLOX-L-Light and GXLD, mean average precision (mAP) was used to evaluate the detection accuracy, and network parameters were used to evaluate the lightweight effect. Experiments on our forest fire dataset show that the number of the parameters of YOLOX-L-Light decreased by 92.6%, and the mAP increased by 1.96%. The mAP of GXLD is 87.47%, which is 2.46% higher than that of YOLOX-L; and the average fps of GXLD is 26.33 when the input image size is 1280 × 720. Even in a foggy environment, the GXLD can detect a forest fire in real time with a high accuracy, target confidence, and target integrity. This research proposes a lightweight forest fire detection method (GXLD) with fog removal. Therefore, GXLD can detect a forest fire with a high accuracy in real time. The proposed GXLD has the advantages of defogging, a high target confidence, and a high target integrity, which makes it more suitable for the development of a modern forest fire video detection system.
RESUMO
Cytochrome c (Cyt-c) was commonly an intrinsic biomarker for a variety of cellular characteristics, such as respiration, energy levels, and apoptosis. Herein, a simple fluorescence sensor was constructed for the detection of Cyt-c in buffer and real serum samples. The carbon dots doped with Tb3+ on the premise of 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) were fabricated and used as a dual-emission ratiometric fluorescent probe for detecting Cyt-c based on the internal filtering effect (IFE). As a fluorescent probe for ultra-sensitive detection, Cyt-c was quantitatively detected at different concentrations from 1 to 1000 nM. The fluorescent detection method for Cyt-c showed a good linear relationship from 1 to 50 nM, and the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.35 nM. In the recovery range of 101.27-103.39 % in human serum samples, the relative standard deviation (RSD) was less than 3.27 % (n = 3). In the end, the possible structures of CDs were predicted by DFT theoretical simulation calculations. All the results proved the ability of carbon dots as fluorescent probes to detect biomarkers and the application prospects in bioanalysis.

The Ae. albopictus mosquito has gained global attention due to its ability to transmit viruses, including the dengue and zika. Mosquito control is the only effective way to manage dengue fever, as no effective treatments or vaccines are available. Insecticides are highly effective in controlling mosquito densities, which reduces the chances of virus transmission. However, Ae. albopictus has developed resistance to pyrethroids in several provinces in China. Pyrethroids target the voltage-gated sodium channel gene (VGSC), and mutations in this gene may result in knockdown resistance (kdr). Correlation studies between resistance and mutations can assist viruses in managing Ae. albopictus, which has not been studied in Guizhou province. Nine field populations of Ae. albopictus at the larval stage were collected from Guizhou Province in 2022 and reared to F1 to F2 generations. Resistance bioassays were conducted against permethrin, beta-cypermethrin, and deltamethrin for both larvae and adults of Ae. albopictus. Kdr mutations were characterized by PCR and sequencing. Additionally, the correlation between the kdr allele and pyrethroid resistance was analyzed. All nine populations of Ae. albopictus larvae and adults were found to be resistant to three pyrethroid insecticides. One kdr mutant allele at codon 1016, one at 1532 and three at 1534 were identified with frequencies of 13.86% (V1016G), 0.53% (I1532T), 58.02% (F1534S), 11.69% (F1534C), 0.06% (F1534L) and 0.99% (F1534P), respectively. Both V1016G and F1534S mutation mosquitoes were found in all populations. The kdr mutation F1534S was positively correlated with three pyrethroid resistance phenotypes (OR > 1, P < 0.05), V1016G with deltamethrin and beta-cypermethrin resistance (OR > 1, P < 0.05) and F1534C only with beta-cypermethrin resistance (OR > 1, P < 0.05). Current susceptibility status of wild populations of Ae. albopictus to insecticides and a higher frequency of kdr mutations from dengue-monitored areas in Guizhou Province are reported in this paper. Outcomes of this study can serve as data support for further research and development of effective insecticidal interventions against Ae. albopictus populations in Guizhou Province.

We demonstrate high-performance photodetectors based on Eu-doped 2D perovskite nanowire arrays. The pure crystallographic orientation enables efficient carrier transport and the doped Eu ions effectively suppress the trap density in the nanowire arrays. As a result, the optimized Eu-doped photodetectors show an excellent responsivity of 6.24 A W-1, an outstanding specific detectivity of 5.83 × 1013 Jones and stable photo-switching behavior with a current on/off ratio of 103.
RESUMO
Highly sensitive photodetectors play significant roles in modern optoelectronic integrated circuits. Constructing p-n junctions has been proven to be a particularly powerful approach to realizing sensitive photodetection due to their efficient carrier separation. Recently, p-n-junction photodetectors based on organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites, which combine favorable optoelectronic performance with facile processability, hold great potential in practical applications. So far, these devices have generally been made of polycrystalline films, which exhibit poor carrier-transport efficiency, impeding the further improvement of their photoresponsivities. Here, a type of ultrasensitive photodetector based on single-crystalline perovskite p-n-junction nanowire arrays is demonstrated. The single-crystalline perovskite p-n-junction nanowire arrays not only possess high crystallinity that enables efficient carrier transport but also form a built-in electric field facilitating effective carrier separation. As a result, the devices show excellent photosensitivity over a wide spectral range from 405 to 635 nm with an outstanding responsivity of 2.65 × 102 A W-1 at 532 nm. These results will provide new insights into the design and construction of high-performance photodetectors for practical optoelectronic applications.
RESUMO
Circularly polarized light (CPL) detection has emerged as a key technology for various optoelectronics. Chiral hybrid perovskites (CHPs) that combine CPL-sensitive absorption induced by chiral organic ligands and superior photoelectric properties of perovskites are promising candidates for direct CPL detection. To date, most of the CHP detectors are made up of polycrystalline thin-film, which results in a rather limited discrimination of CPL due to the existence of redundant impurities and intrinsic defect states originating from rapid crystallization process. Here, it is developed a direct CPL detector with high photocurrent and polarization selectivity based on low-defect CHP single-crystal nanowire arrays. Large-scale CHP nanowires are obtained through a micropillar template-assisted capillary-bridge rise approach. Thanks to the high crystallinity and ordered crystallographic alignment of these arrays, a CPL photodetector with high light on/off ratio of 1.8 × 104 , excellent responsivity of 1.4 A W-1 , and an outstanding anisotropy factor of 0.24 for photocurrent has been achieved. These results would provide useful enlightenment for direct CPL detection in high-performance chiral optoelectronics.
