RESUMO
Rechargeable magnesium metal batteries (RMBs) have shown promising prospects in sustainable energy storage due to the high crustal abundance, safety, and potentially large specific capacity of magnesium. However, their development is constrained by the lack of effective cathode materials that can achieve high capacity and stable magnesium storage at a practically reasonable rate. Herein, we construct a three-dimensional (3D) iron(III)-dihydroxy-benzoquinone (Fe2(DHBQ)3) metal-organic framework (MOF) material with dual redox centers of Fe3+ cations and DHBQ2- anions for reversible storage of Mg2+ in RMBs. Spectroscopic analysis and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal the redox chemistry of both Fe3+ ions and carbonyls from DHBQ ligands during electrochemical processes. Benefiting from the rational structure, the Fe2(DHBQ)3â¥Mg cells exhibit a high reversible capacity of 395.3 mAh/g, large energy density of 463.5 Wh/kg, and high power density of 2456.0 W/kg. Moreover, the high electronic conductivity (8.35 × 10-5 S/cm) and favorable diffusion path of Mg2+ in Fe2(DHBQ)3 endow the cells with exceptional cycling stability and rate capability with a long life of 5000 cycles at 2000 mA/g. The dual redox-active MOF demonstrates a category of advanced cathode materials for high-performance RMBs.
RESUMO
Surface atom diffusion is a ubiquitous phenomenon in nanostructured metals with ultrahigh surface-to-volume ratios. However, the fundamental atomic mechanism of surface atom diffusion remains elusive. Here, we report in situ atomic-scale observations of surface pressure-driven atom diffusion in gold nanocrystals at room temperature using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy with a high-speed detection camera. The topmost layer of atoms on (001) plane initially diffuse in a column-by-column manner. As diffusion proceeds, the remaining atomic columns collectively inject into adjacent underlayer, accompanied by nucleation of a surface dislocation. In comparison, atoms on (111) plane directly diffuse to the base without collective injection. Quantitative calculations indicate that these crystal plane orientation-dependent atom diffusion behaviors contribute to the larger diffusion coefficient of (111) plane compared to (001) plane in addition to the effect of diffusion activation energy. Our findings provide valuable insights into atomic mechanisms of diffusion-dominant morphology evolution of nanostructured metals and guide the design of nanostructured materials with enhanced structural stability.
RESUMO
Background: The basic medical education stage is not enough to support physicians to fully diagnose and evaluate polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The study aims to discover the difference in treatment choice between participants with different annual consultation number of PCOS, to promote lifelong learning, and drive balanced development within healthcare. Methods: This is a multicenter cross-sectional survey. Participants' basic information, knowledge of PCOS and treatment options were collected online. According to the annual consultation number of patients with PCOS, physicians were divided into three groups: 0-50 people/yr, 50-200 people/yr, and >200 people/yr, and the results were derived from χ2 test, Fisher exact test, and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results: The study analyzed 1689 questionnaires, and 1206 physicians (71.4%) received less than 50 women per year, 388 physicians (30.0%) with an annual number of 50-200 women, and 95 physicians (5.6%) with patient turnover for more than 200 people. Reproductive endocrinologists generally have higher access to the clinic. As the number of visits increases, more and more physicians would perceive patients as more likely to have abnormal blood glucose and heavy weight. Physicians with large numbers of consultations are more likely to use Asian or Chinese standards to assess obesity. The multivariate analysis involved variables such as age, hospital level, specialty, and patient turnover annually, and more young doctors actively assessed lipid profile (odds ratio (OR) 1.56, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.16, 2.16)), and primary hospitals (OR 0.65 CI (0.44, 0.89)) chose OGTT for blood glucose assessment less than tertiary hospitals. Physicians in secondary hospitals are more aggressive in evaluating androgens. Conclusion: Our survey found differences in endocrine assessment, metabolic screening, and treatment in PCOS women in terms of the number of obstetrician-gynecologists who received different patient consultation numbers. The importance of continuing education for physicians is emphasized, to promote lifelong learning.

Carbon support is essential for electrocatalysis, but limitations remain, as carbon corrosion can lead to electrocatalyst degradation and affect the long-term durability of electrocatalysts. Here, we studied the corrosion dynamics of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and Vulcan carbon (VC) together with platinum (Pt) nanoparticles in real time by liquid cell (LC) transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that CNTs with a high degree of graphitization exhibited higher corrosion resistance compared to VC. Furthermore, we observed that the main degradation path of Pt nanoparticles in Pt/CNTs was ripening, while in Pt/VC, it was aggregation and coalescence, which was dominated by the interactions between Pt nanoparticles and different hybridization of carbon supports. Finally, we performed an ex situ CV stability test to confirm the conclusions obtained from in situ experiments. This work provides deep insights into the corrosion mechanism of carbon-supported electrocatalysts to optimize the design of electrocatalysts with a higher durability.
