In this paper, we study the lepton flavor violating decays of the lj→liγγ (j=2, 3; i=1, 2) processes under the U(1)XSSM. The U(1)XSSM is the addition of three singlet new Higgs superfields and ...right-handed neutrinos to the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). Based on the latest experimental constraints of lj→liγγ, we analyze the effects of different sensitive parameters on the results and made reasonable predictions for future experimental development. Numerical analysis shows that many parameters have a greater or lesser effect on lepton flavor violation (LFV), but the main sensitive parameters and sources leading to LFV are the non-diagonal elements involving the initial and final leptons. This work could provide a basis for the discovery of the existence of new physics (NP).
People extend the MSSM with the local gauge group U(1)X to obtain the U(1)XSSM. In the framework of the U(1)XSSM, we study the flavor transition process b→sγ with the mass insertion approximation ...(MIA). By the MIA method and some reasonable parameter assumptions, we can intuitively find the parameters that have obvious effect on the analytic results of the flavor transition process b→sγ. By means of the influences of different sensitive parameters, we can obtain reasonable results to better fit the experimental data.
This work describes a strategy to produce circularly polarized thermally activated delayed fluorescence (CP-TADF). A set of two structurally similar organic emitters SFST and SFOT are constructed, ...whose spiro architectures containing asymmetric donors result in chirality. Upon grafting within the spiro frameworks, the donor and acceptor are fixed proximally in a face-to-face manner. This orientation allows intramolecular through-space charge transfer (TSCT) to occur in both emitters, leading to TADF properties. The donor units in SFST and SFOT have a sulfur and oxygen atom, respectively; such a subtle difference has great impacts on their photophysical, chiroptical, and electroluminescence (EL) properties. SFOT exhibits greatly enhanced EL performance in doped organic light-emitting diodes, with external quantum efficiency (EQE) up to 23.1%, owing to the concurrent manipulation of highly photoluminescent quantum efficiency (PLQY, ∼90%) and high exciton utilization. As a comparison, the relatively larger sulfur atom in SFST introduces heavy atom effects and leads to distortion of the molecular backbone that lengthens the donor–acceptor distance. SFST thus has lower PLQY and faster nonradiative decay rate. The collective consequence is that the EQE value of SFST, i.e., 12.5%, is much lower than that of SFOT. The chirality of these two spiro emitters results in circularly polarized luminescence. Because SFST has a more distorted molecular architecture than SFOT, the luminescence dissymmetry factor (|g lum|) of circularly polarized luminescence of one enantiomer of the former, namely, either (S)-SFST or (R)-SFST, is almost twice that of (S)-SFOT/(R)-SFOT. Moreover, the CP organic light-emitting diodes (CP-OLEDs) show obvious circularly polarized electroluminescence (CPEL) signals with g EL of 1.30 × 10–3 and 1.0 × 10–3 for (S)-SFST and (S)-SFOT, respectively.
Herein, we highlight redox‐inert Zn2+ in spinel‐type oxide (ZnXNi1−XCo2O4) to synergistically optimize physical pore structure and increase the formation of active species on the catalyst surface. ...The presence of Zn2+ segregation has been identified experimentally and theoretically under oxygen‐evolving condition, the newly formed VZn−O−Co allows more suitable binding interaction between the active center Co and the oxygenated species, resulting in superior ORR performance. Moreover, a liquid flow Zn–air battery is constituted employing the structurally optimized Zn0.4Ni0.6Co2O4 nanoparticles supported on N‐doped carbon nanotube (ZNCO/NCNTs) as an efficient air cathode, which presents remarkable power density (109.1 mW cm−2), high open circuit potential (1.48 V vs. Zn), excellent durability, and high‐rate performance. This finding could elucidate the experimentally observed enhancement in the ORR activity of ZnXNi1−XCo2O4 oxides after the OER test.
The outstanding electrocatalytic performance of Zn0.4Ni0.6Co2O4/NCNTs towards ORR/OER is validated, presenting remarkable rate capability and durability in liquid‐flow Zn–air batteries. A dual‐reinforcement mechanism in the Zn–Ni–Co ternary spinel is also proposed. Zn0.4Ni0.6Co2O4/NCNTs exhibits extreme durability and electrochemically enhanced properties, enabling its application in practical rechargeable zinc–air batteries.
This paper investigates the multirate networked industrial process control problem in double-layer architecture. First, the output tracking problem for sampled-data nonlinear plant at device layer ...with sampling period T d is investigated using adaptive neural network (NN) control, and it is shown that the outputs of subsystems at device layer can track the decomposed setpoints. Then, the outputs and inputs of the device layer subsystems are sampled with sampling period T u at operation layer to form the index prediction, which is used to predict the overall performance index at lower frequency. Radial basis function NN is utilized as the prediction function due to its approximation ability. Then, considering the dynamics of the overall closed-loop system, nonlinear model predictive control method is proposed to guarantee the system stability and compensate the network-induced delays and packet dropouts. Finally, a continuous stirred tank reactor system is given in the simulation part to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
Bimetallic cobalt‐based spinel is sparking much interest, most notably for its excellent bifunctional performance. However, the effect of Fe3+ doping in Co3O4 spinel remains poorly understood, mainly ...because the surface state of a catalyst is difficult to characterize. Herein, a bifunctional oxygen electrode composed of spinel Co2FeO4/(Co0.72Fe0.28)Td(Co1.28Fe0.72)OctO4 nanoparticles grown on N‐doped carbon nanotubes (NCNTs) is designed, which exhibits superior performance to state‐of‐the‐art noble metal catalysts. Theoretical calculations and magnetic measurements reveal that the introduction of Fe3+ ions into the Co3O4 network causes delocalization of the Co 3d electrons and spin‐state transition. Fe3+ ions can effectively activate adjacent Co3+ ions under the action of both spin and charge effect, resulting in the enhanced intrinsic oxygen catalytic activity of the hybrid spinel Co2FeO4. This work provides not only a promising bifunctional electrode for zinc–air batteries, but also offers a new insight to understand the Co‐Fe spinel oxides for oxygen electrocatalysis.

Transition‐metal oxides as electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) provide a promising route to face the energy and environmental crisis issues. Although palmeirite oxide A2Mo3O8 as ...OER catalyst has been explored, the correlation between its active sites (tetrahedral or octahedral) and OER performance has been elusive. Now, magnetic Co2Mo3O8@NC‐800 composed of highly crystallized Co2Mo3O8 nanosheets and ultrathin N‐rich carbon layer is shown to be an efficient OER catalyst. The catalyst exhibits favorable performance with an overpotential of 331 mV@10 mA cm−2 and 422 mV@40 mA cm−2, and a full water‐splitting electrolyzer with it as anode catalyst shows a cell voltage of 1.67 V@10 mA cm−2 in alkaline. Combined HAADFSTEM, magnetic, and computational results show that factors influencing the OER performance can be attributed to the tetrahedral Co sites (high spin, t23e4), which improve the OER kinetics of rate‐determining step to form *OOH.

Electrochemical data, magnetism data, and computations suggest that the Td Co2+ atoms (high spin, t23e4) in Co2Mo3O8 act as active sites facilitating the rate‐determining step, forming *OOH to promote the reaction kinetics for OER.
Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is characterized by abnormal collagen deposition. It is a precancerous disorder and transforms into a malignant tumor in 1.5-15% of all cases. Symptoms include submucous ...fibrosis, ulceration, xerostomia, a burning sensation, and restricted mouth opening. All of these greatly interfere with patient quality of life. The present review introduces OSF from a molecular perspective and summarizes what is known about its underlying mechanisms, diagnostic biomarkers, and therapeutic interventions. In addition to the aggressive treatment of OSF, its prevention is also important. Future research should, therefore, focus on improving the oral health literacy of the patients susceptible to OSF.

All-day passive radiative cooling has recently attracted tremendous interest by reflecting sunlight and radiating heat to the ultracold outer space. While some progress has been made, it still ...remains big challenge in fabricating highly efficient and low-cost radiative coolers for all-day and all-climates. Herein, we report a hierarchically structured polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) film with a micropore array combined with random nanopores for highly efficient day- and nighttime passive radiative cooling. This hierarchically porous array PMMA film exhibits sufficiently high solar reflectance (0.95) and superior longwave infrared thermal emittance (0.98) and realizes subambient cooling of ~8.2 °C during the night and ~6.0 °C to ~8.9 °C during midday with an average cooling power of ~85 W/m
under solar intensity of ~900 W/m
, and promisingly ~5.5 °C even under solar intensity of ~930 W/m
and relative humidity of ~64% in hot and moist climate. The micropores and nanopores in the polymer film play crucial roles in enhancing the solar reflectance and thermal emittance.
