A Predictive Model to Identify the Effects of Transcutaneous Sacral Nerve Stimulation With Pelvic Floor Exercises in Fecal Incontinence After Surgery for Anorectal Malformation.

INTRODUCTION: Although the combination of transcutaneous sacral nerve stimulation (tSNS) and pelvic floor exercises (PFEs) has shown significant effectiveness in treating fecal incontinence (FI) after surgery for congenital anorectal malformation (CARM), not all patients achieve satisfactory continence. Therefore, identifying which individuals will benefit from this method is crucial. METHODS: A prospective cohort study enrolled 92 children with FI. All patients underwent tSNS with PFE treatment, and an improved outcome was defined as a Wexner score ≤4. A predictive model to identify the effects of tSNS with PFEs in FI was developed based on the analysis of magnetic resonance imaging and high-resolution anorectal manometry with area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve to evaluate the predictive value of external anal sphincter (EAS) thickness index and anal squeezing pressure (ASP). RESULTS: tSNS with PFEs improved outcomes in 72 patients and led to poor outcomes in 20 (4 had their rectums deviate from the puborectalis muscle center or puborectal muscle ruptures while 16 lacked EAS with a lower ASP). The areas under the receiver-operating characteristic curve for EAS thickness index and ASP in predicting the effects of tSNS with PFEs were 0.915 (95% confidence interval 0.846-0.983, P = 0.000) and 0.886 (95% confidence interval 0.819-0.952, P = 0.000), respectively. By applying cutoff values of 0.076 for EAS thickness index and 21.95 mm Hg for ASP, tSNS with PFEs was found to be ineffective. DISCUSSION: tSNS with PFEs is effective for most patients with FI after CARM surgery, except when the rectum deviates from the puborectal muscle center, puborectal muscle rupture occurs, or EAS is absent with a low ASP.

Global and Full-Dimensional Potential Energy Surfaces of the N2 + O2 Reaction for Hyperthermal Collisions.

The energy transfer, dissociations, and chemical reactions between O2 and N2 play an important role in the re-entry process of aircraft and many atmospheric, combustion, and plasma processes. Recently, Varga et al. (J. Chem. Phys., 2016, 144, 024310) developed a full-dimensional high-precision potential energy surface (PES) of the ground triplet electronic state for the O2 and N2 system based on ca. 55,000 data points, whose energies were calculated by multi-state complete-active-space second-order perturbation theory/minimally augmented correlation-consistent polarized valence triple-zeta electronic structure calculations plus dynamically scaled external correlation. The fitting function adopted the many-body expansion form with the four-body interactions fitted by the permutationally invariant polynomial in terms of bond-order functions of the six interatomic distances (MB-PIP). In this work, we refit the PES of the N2O2 system by two methods based on the same data set that was used by Varga et al. The first uses the permutation invariant polynomial-neural network (PIP-NN) method to fit the entire energy of the 55,000 data points. In the second approach, the PIP-NN method is used to fit only the four-body interaction component, a similar treatment in the MB-PIP method, and the resulting PES is named MB-PIP-NN. Then, the performances of these new PESs and the MB-PIP PES are comprehensively and systematically compared, such as comparisons of various scans, properties of stationary points, and dynamics simulations. Possible improvements for the PES of N2O2 are suggested. A more reliable PES of the system can be constructed in terms of data sampling range, electronic structure calculation level, and fitting method for high-temperature calculation and simulation in the future.

Association of dietary total antioxidant capacity with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease: based on two retrospective cohort studies of NHANES.

BACKGROUND: The relationship between dietary total antioxidant capacity (DTAC) and death risk among CKD populations remains unclear. METHODS: Based on vitamin C equivalent antioxidant capacity (VCEAC) and the component dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) indices, we analyzed two cohorts to investigate the association of DTAC with all-cause and CVD mortality in CKD patients using data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2007-2018). VCEAC (n = 6330) and CDAI (n = 6300) cohorts with mortality follow-up data available through 2018 were included. Cox models with restricted cubic splines was used to model the nonlinear association between VCEAC/CDAI and outcomes in CKD patients. RESULTS: Our results showed L-shaped associations of DTAC with all-cause mortality among individuals with CKD stages 1-2 in both cohorts. Compared to the lowest quartile, higher dietary total antioxidant intake was associated with lower all-cause mortality risks among CKD stages 1-2 after adjustment for covariates, with HRs (95%CI) of 1.00, 0.91 (0.71,1.17), 0.69 (0.53,0.90), and 0.70 (0.54,0.91) in VCEAC, and similar respective estimate trends in CDAI. After sensitivity and subgroup analyses, there were no benefits for patients with stage 3-5 CKD or albuminuria. Mediation analysis revealed that the proportions mediated in both cohorts were less consistent. CONCLUSIONS: Moderate dietary total antioxidants intake has potential benefits for early-stage CKD patients. However, further evidence is needed to confirm whether patients with worsening CKD can benefit in the long term.

Relationship between Sarcopenia and Cardiovascular Disease Risk among Taiwanese Older Adults.

OBJECTIVE: Increasing evidence supports sarcopenia as an important parameter for predicting cardiometabolic risks. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between muscle mass, muscle strength, and physical performance, and cardiovascular risk among older community-dwelling adults. DESIGN: The associations between dynapenia, sarcopenia, and Framingham risk score (FRS) were estimated by multivariate regression models. SETTING: Muscle mass is estimated by skeletal muscle mass index using a bioelectrical impedance analysis. Muscle strength is measured by handgrip strength using an analog isometric dynamometer. Physical performance is measured by gait speed using a 6-meter walking distance. Dynapenia was defined as low muscle strength and/or slow gait speed presents with normal muscle mass. The diagnosis of presarcopenia and sarcopenia was based on criteria proposed by the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia in 2014. The FRS was used for evaluating 10-year coronary heart disease risk. PARTICIPANTS: Adults aged 65 years and older who attended health examinations from 2015 to 2017 were recruited. RESULTS: There were totally 709 subjects enrolled in this study. Dynapenic men (n=47) had 17.70±5.08% FRS and sarcopenic women (n=74) had 7.74±6.06% FRS. Participants with presarcopenia had the lowest FRS (men: 15.41±5.35%; women: 5.25±3.70%). Men with dynapenia had higher FRS than the presarcopenia group with odds ratio (OR) of 2.52 (95% Confidence Interval [CI]: 1.03-6.14). Women with sarcopenia had significantly higher FRS than the presarcopenia group with OR of 2.81 (95%CI: 1.09-7.27). CONCLUSION: Older dynapenic men and older sarcopenic women had higher risks of 10-year coronary heart disease. Presarcopenic older adults had the lowest coronary heart disease risk in both genders.

Two-Dimensional (PEA)2PbBr4 Perovskites Sensors for Highly Sensitive Ethanol Vapor Detection.

Two-dimensional (2D) perovskite have been widely researched for solar cells, light-emitting diodes, photodetectors because of their excellent environmental stability and optoelectronic properties in comparison to three-dimensional (3D) perovskite. In this study, we demonstrate the high response of 2D-(PEA)2PbBr4 perovskite of the horizontal vapor sensor was outstandingly more superior than 3D-MAPbBr3 perovskite. 2D transverse perovskite layer have the large surface-to-volume ratio and reactive surface, with the charge transfer mechanism, which was suitable for vapor sensing and trapping. Thus, 2D perovskite vapor sensors demonstrate the champion current response ratio R of 107.32 under the ethanol vapors, which was much faster than 3D perovskite (R = 2.92).

Relationship between ideal cardiovascular health metrics and hearing loss: A 10-year retrospective cohort study.

OBJECTIVE: The role of ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics in developing hearing loss remains uncertain. Thus, our objective was to analyse the connection between hearing loss and ideal CVH metrics in a 10-year retrospective cohort. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: A health management centre in Taiwan. PARTICIPANTS: Participants who underwent the first annual health check-up between 2000 and 2006 and with a follow-up check-up more than ten years later. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Hearing thresholds were measured at 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, 2000 Hz and 4000 Hz. Individuals with a best ear pure-tone audiometry four-frequency average of >25 dB HL were defined as having hearing loss. The ideal CVH metrics were classified into 7 categories based on the American Heart Association's definition. The associations of hearing loss with the sum of the ideal CVH metrics and each ideal CVH metric were examined by multiple logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: The present study consisted of 6974 participants. The 10-year follow-up showed that the odds ratio (OR) of hearing loss was .74 for participants with 5-7 ideal CVH metrics (95% CI, .59-.93, p = .01) compared with those with 0-2 ideal CVH metrics. Among the CVH metrics, participants with an ideal smoking status might have reduced odds of developing hearing loss; the OR was .72 (95% CI, .58-.89, p = .003). CONCLUSIONS: Participants with an increased number of ideal CVH metrics and better performance on the smoking metric had a significantly protective effect regarding hearing loss development.

Associations between different measurements of sarcopenic obesity and health outcomes among non-frail community-dwelling older adults in Taiwan.

The most important issue for the clinical application of sarcopenic obesity (SO) is the lack of a consensus definition. The aim of the present study was to determine the best measurement for SO by estimating the association between various definitions and the risk of falls and metabolic syndrome (MS). We studied a community of 765 adults aged 65 years and older in 2015-2017. Sarcopenia obesity was measured by sarcopenia (defined by low muscle mass with either low handgrip strength or low gait speed or both) plus obesity (defined by waist circumference, body fat percentage and BMI). The MS was defined according to the National Cholesterol Education Program ATP III. Logistic regression models were constructed to examine the relationships between sarcopenia obesity and risk of fall and MS. In the analysis of the fall risk with SO defined by waist circumference, the participants with non-sarcopenia/non-obesity were treated as the reference group. The OR to fall in participants with SO was 10·16 (95 % CI 2·71, 38·13) after adjusting for confounding covariates. In the analysis of the risk of the MS between participants with individual components of sarcopenia coupled with obesity defined by waist circumference, the risk was statistically significant for low gait speed (OR: 7·19; 95 % CI 3·61, 14·30) and low grip strength (OR: 9·19; 95 % CI 5·00, 16·91). A combination of low grip strength and abdominal obesity for identifying SO may be a more precise and practical method for predicting target populations with unfavourable health risks, such as falls risk and MS.

Cross-sectional associations among P3NP, HtrA, Hsp70, Apelin and sarcopenia in Taiwanese population.

BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia is a multifactorial pathophysiologic condition of skeletal muscle mass and muscle strength associated with aging. However, biomarkers for predicting the occurrence of sarcopenia are rarely discussed in recent studies. The aim of the study was to elucidate the relationship between sarcopenia and several pertinent biomarkers. METHODS: Using the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) profiles of the National Center for Biotechnology Information, the associations between mRNA expression of biomarkers and sarcopenia were explored, including high temperature requirement serine protease A1 (HtrA1), procollagen type III N-terminal peptide (P3NP), apelin, and heat shock proteins 70 (Hsp72). We enrolled 408 community-dwelling adults aged 65 years and older with sarcopenia and nonsarcopenia based on the algorithm proposed by the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS). Muscle strength is identified by hand grip strength using an analogue isometric dynamometer. Muscle mass is estimated by skeletal mass index (SMI) using a bioelectrical impedance analysis. Physical performance is measured by gait speed using 6 m walking distance. The associations between these biomarkers and sarcopenia were determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and multivariate regression models. RESULTS: From the GEO profiles, the sarcopenia gene set variation analysis score was correlated significantly with the mRNA expression of APLNR (p < 0.001) and HSPA2 (p < 0.001). In our study, apelin was significantly associated with decreased hand grip strength with ß values of - 0.137 (95%CI: - 0.229, - 0.046) in men. P3NP and HtrA1 were significantly associated with increased SMI with ß values of 0.081 (95%CI: 0.010, 0.153) and 0.005 (95%CI: 0.001, 0.009) in men, respectively. Apelin and HtrA1 were inversely associated with the presence of sarcopenia with an OR of 0.543 (95%CI: 0.397-0.743) and 0.003 (95%CI: 0.001-0.890) after full adjustment. The cutoff point of HtrA1 was associated with the presence of sarcopenia with an OR of 0.254 (95%CI: 0.083-0.778) in men. The cutoff point of apelin was negatively associated with the presence of sarcopenia with an OR of 0.254 (95%CI: 0.083-0.778). CONCLUSION: Our study highlights that P3NP, HtrA, and apelin are useful for diagnosis of sarcopenia in the clinical setting.

Gender differences in the association between physical activity and health-related quality of life among community-dwelling elders.

BACKGROUND: Physical activity can improve health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in older adults. However, the differential effects of gender on quality of life are unclear. AIMS: To determine the association between physical activity and HRQoL in men and women. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study conducted from March to August 2011. Community-dwelling older people aged 65 years or older were eligible. Physical activity in kcal per week was measured with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ)-Taiwan version. HRQoL was measured with the 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) questionnaire. Cognitive function and depression were assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). The relationship between physical activity and HRQoL in men and women was investigated by a multiple linear regression model. RESULTS: A total of 188 older people (M: 50.5%) participated in this study. The mean ages of men and women were 71.9 ± 5.3 and 77.1 ± 6.4 years, respectively (p < 0.001). Older women had higher physical activity levels than men (4786.1 ± 1065.6 vs 4422.2 ± 1114.3 kcal/week, p = 0.023). After adjusting for covariates, multiple linear regression analysis showed that older men with higher physical activity levels had better scores on both the physical component summary (PCS) (p = 0.031) and mental component summary (MCS) (p = 0.007) than men with lower levels. Furthermore, older men with higher moderate-vigorous physical activity levels had better scores on the PCS than older men with lower activity levels, and older men with higher walking physical activity levels had better scores on the MCS than older men with lower activity levels. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, older women were more physically active than older men. However, older men (but not older women) with higher physical activity had better HRQoL. The association between physical activity and HRQoL differed between men and women.

Effect of Surface Property on the Release and Oral Absorption of Solid Sirolimus-Containing Self-microemulsifying Drug Delivery System.

The combination of self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) and mesoporous silica materials favors the oral delivery of poorly water-soluble drugs (PWSD). However, the influence of the surface property of the mesopores towards the drug release and in vivo pharmacokinetics is still unknown. In this study, SBA-15 with hydroxyl groups (SBA-15-H), methyl groups (SBA-15-M), amino groups (SBA-15-A), or carboxyl groups (SBA-15-C) was combined with SMEDDS containing sirolimus (SRL). The diffusion and self-emulsifying of SMEDDS greatly improved the drug release over the raw SRL and SRL-SBA-15-R (R referred to as the functional groups). Results of drug absorption and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed strong hydrogen binding between SRL and the amino groups of SBA-15-A, which hindered the drug release and oral bioavailability of SRL-SMEDDS-SBA-15-A. The favorable release of SRL-SMEDDS-SBA-15-C (91.31 ± 0.57%) and SRL-SMEDDS-SBA-15-M (91.76 ± 3.72%) contributed to enhancing the maximum blood concentration (Cmax) and the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0→48). In conclusion, the release of SRL-SMEDDS-SBA-15-R was determined by the surface affinity of the SBA-15-R and the interaction between the SRL molecules and the surface of SBA-15-R. This study suggested that the SMEDDS-SBA-15 was a favorable carrier for PWSD, and the surface property of the mesopores should be considered for the optimization of the SMEDDS-SBA-15.

Light-triggered OVA release based on CuS@poly(lactide-co-glycolide acid) nanoparticles for synergistic photothermal-immunotherapy of tumor.

The immunotherapy played a vital role in the treatment of metastatic tumor. To further enhance the effect of the immunotherapy, the combination of photothermal effect can not only eradicate the tumor cells by hyperthermia, but also improved the antigen release in vivo to achieve enhanced immune responses. In this study, a core-shell structured nanocomplex was developed by loading of ovalbumin (OVA) and copper sulfide nanoparticles (CuS-NPs) into the poly(lactide-co-glycolide acid) nanoparticles (PLGA-NPs). The CuS-NPs exhibited favorable photothermal effect, which significantly kill the 4T1 tumor cells in vitro. The photothermal effect of the CuS-NPs accelerated the OVA release, which led to higher levels of IL-6, IL-12 and TNF-α, and activation of CD8+ T cells. Both of the OVA-PLGA-NPs and CuS-NPs with NIR light irradiation contributed inhibited primary tumor while the growth of the distant tumors was not hindered. The irradiated CuS@OVA-PLGA-NPs exhibited a minimal primary tumor because of the combined effect of photothermal therapy and immunotherapy. Moreover, the irradiated CuS@OVA-PLGA-NPs showed the most extensive distribution of CD8+ T cells in the primary and distant tumor, which blocked the rise of the distant tumor. In conclusion, the CuS@OVA-PLGA-NPs presented as a promising strategy for metastatic tumor therapy.

Average urinary flow rate and its association with handgrip strength.

BACKGROUND: Voiding dysfunction became a difficult problem for the elderly because of the underactive bladder (UAB). It was considered that the degeneration of detrusor muscle was the main etiology. In recent years, more articles focus on relationship between UAB and decreased muscle strength. Besides, handgrip strength (HGS) is an early indicator to detect frailty and muscle weakness in systemic reviews. METHOD: Our study involved 2258 males from NHANES datasets (2011-2012, who were divided into quartiles by urine flow rate (UFR), which was measured by uroflowmetry. Multivariate regression models were performed to analyze the associations between UFR and HGS. RESULTS: The UFR had a positive correlation to the HGS by multivariate regression models in males (ß coefficient: 1.348, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.530, 2.166, p = 0.001). The male participants with the highest quartile of UFR have a greater HGS than those with lowest quartile of UFR (ß coefficient: 4.546, 95% CI: 2.462, 6.630, p < 0.001). Higher UFR was associated with lower odds of low HGS (OR: 0.489, 95% CI: 0.350, 0.684, p < 0.001) in the fully-adjusted model. CONCLUSIONS: Our research highlighted that the UFR had a strong associated with the HGS in the healthy group.

Preparation and Evaluation of Cubic Nanoparticles for Improved Transdermal Delivery of Propranolol Hydrochloride.

Transdermal drug delivery of propranolol hydrochloride (PRH) is promising for the treatment of infantile hemangioma (IH). Clinically used PRH hydrogel fails to reach the deep IH for complete recovery. In this study, the PRH-loaded cubic nanoparticles (CNPs) were prepared to promote the transdermal effect of PRH. A remote drug loading method was developed to prepare the PRH-CNPs. For the traditional passive drug loading method, the largest encapsulation efficiency (EE%) was around 50%. The remote drug loading was performed by increasing the pH of the mixture of blank CNPs and PRH solution. The optimal PRH-CNPs showed an EE% of 90.15 ± 2.44% at pH 8.5. The permeation of the PRH solution was poor while the PRH-CNPs showed greatly enhanced skin permeation. It was found that smaller-sized PRH-CNPs contributed to increased skin permeation and retention. In addition, the PRH-CNPs had higher cytotoxicity towards the EOMA cells when compared with the PRH solution. During storage for 1 month, the PRH-CNPs kept stable size distribution, pH, and EE%. In conclusion, results of this study suggested that the PRH-CNPs could be a potential candidate for the treatment of the IH by transdermal delivery.

Effect of Soluplus on the supersaturation and absorption of tacrolimus formulated as inclusion complex with dimethyl-ß-cyclodextrin.

The application of tacrolimus (FK506) is hampered by its poor solubility and dissolution, which can be promoted by the use of inclusion complex. However, in supersaturated environment, crystallization of the drug inclusion complex may occur, leading to reduced absorption in vivo. In this study, Soluplus, an amphiphilic copolymer of polyvinyl caprolactam, polyvinyl acetate and polyethylene glycol, was used to improve the supersaturated stability and absorption of FK506. Using dimethyl-ß-cyclodextrin (DM-ß-CD), the inclusion complex (FK506-CD) was prepared, which showed favorable dissolution profiles. But in supersaturated condition, the drug concentration was rapidly decreased, with 10.64 ± 0.69 µg/ml of FK506 at 12 h. Ternary complex (FK506-SCD) containing Soluplus contributed steadier drug concentration. The FK506-SCD with 1.2% Soluplus best promoted the supersaturated stability of the inclusion complex, with 62.90 ± 3.34 µg/ml of FK506 at 12 h. Soluplus also reduced the crystallization and degradation of FK506 in the stress test. In the single-pass intestinal perfusion test, the absorption of FK506 in the ileum and colon was significantly increased. Pharmacokinetic results showed that the bioavailability of FK506-SCD was 2.34-fold that of FK506-CD. Our data suggested that Soluplus had an excellent capability in improving the supersaturated stability and in vivo absorption of FK506 inclusion complex.

Does Serum Homocysteine Explain the Connection Between Sexual Frequency and Cardiovascular Risk?

BACKGROUND: Sexual activity correlates with various health issues, and homocysteine is considered an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events and atherosclerosis. Research on the relation of sexual activity to sexual frequency and homocysteine is sparse. AIM: To examine the association between sexual frequency and homocysteine in the general population in the United States. METHODS: In total, 2,267 eligible participants 20 to 59 years old who had serum homocysteine data and completed a sexual behavior questionnaire were enrolled from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of 2005 to 2006. The correlation between sexual frequency and serum homocysteine levels was analyzed using a linear regression model and an extended-model approach was performed for covariate adjustment. OUTCOMES: Individuals, especially men, in the lower quartiles of sexual frequency had significantly higher serum homocysteine levels, and a sex difference was identified in subgroup analysis. RESULTS: In a model of quartile-based analysis after adjustment for age, sex, and race and ethnicity, the regression coefficient of the highest quartile of sexual frequency compared with the lowest quartile was -1.326 (P = .012). After further adjustment for multiple covariates, the inverse association between sexual frequency and serum homocysteine levels remained unchanged. Negative trends maintained statistical significance (P for trend < .05). In subgroup analysis by sex, a negative association between sexual frequency and serum homocysteine levels remained unchanged in men even after adjusting for multiple covariates, but not in women. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Clinical physicians in primary care should support patients' sexual activity, and there are implications for health promotion programs. STRENGTHS AND LIMITATIONS: This is the first observational investigation stratified by sex to evaluate the correlation between sexual frequency and serum homocysteine levels. The study was a cross-sectional observational investigation and the causal relation should be evaluated in a follow-up study. CONCLUSION: Decreased sexual frequency correlated with higher homocysteine levels in a nationally representative sample of US adults, especially men; this might increase the risk of cardiovascular disease or other atherothrombotic events.

Coping with workplace minority stress: Associations between dyadic coping and anxiety among women in same-sex relationships.

Sexual minorities are exposed to stressors in the workplace (workplace minority stress), which can be detrimental for well-being (e.g., levels of anxiety). The present study examined whether a particular set of relationship processes, dyadic coping, served to moderate the association between workplace minority stress and symptoms of anxiety. Using a dyadic sample of 64 female same-sex couples, we found that partner problem-focused supportive dyadic coping (DC) and emotion-focused supportive DC (marginally) buffered, whereas partner delegated DC and negative DC did not moderate, the association between workplace minority stress and symptoms of anxiety. Implications for relationship researchers and mental health practitioners are discussed.

[Study on the Structural, Optical an Surface Plasmon Characteristics of Mo-Doped ZnO Thin Film].

Mo-doped zinc oxide (ZnO∶Mo) films were deposited with direct current magnetron sputtering on quartz substrates at room temperature. The effects of Mo doping content on the crystal structure, surface microstructure，optical properties and plasmon characteristics of the ZnO films were investigated with X-ray diffraction(XRD),atomic force microscopy (AFM),Spectrophotometer and Raman spectrometer. The XRD pattern reveals that pure ZnO film exhibits good crystallization and c-axis oriented while heavy doping leads to increasing film defects. That results decline the film crystalline quality. When Mo doping content exceeds 3.93 Wt%, the ZnO films transform c-axis oriented into amorphous. The AFM pattern indicates that the surface of amorphous MZO film is extraordinarily flat. The Rq is 498 pm. The transmittance spectra reveal that all samples have an average transmittance of 80% in the visible light range. The optical band gap energy (Eg) increases from 3.28 to 3.60 eV as the Mo doping content increase. The absorbance spectrum indicates that ZnO surface plasmon resonance absorbance perk moves to short-wavelength as the Mo doping content increase. The Raman spectrum suggests that heavy Mo doping make the Raman scattering intensity decrease significantly. This paper obtains amorphous ZnO thin film by Mo doping. That broadens the application field of ZnO thin film materials. Meanwhile, we study the effect of Mo doping concentration on ZnO thin films surface plasmon, which provides important reference value for the preparation of oxidized zinc base photonic devices.
