Due to narrowband emission and high quantum efficiencies, polycyclic aromatic heterocycles with multi-resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) properties have recently gained considerable attention in the organic optoelectronic field. Albeit their great promise in the full visible region covering from blue to red, MR-TADF emitters with ultraviolet emission have been rarely reported. Through locking the two ortho-positions of a triphenylamine core by sulfone groups, a simple polycyclic aromatic heterocycle, BTPT, was facilely constructed, exhibiting 368 nm ultraviolet emission with a narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 33 nm. Its neat film exhibited distinct TADF property with a main emission peak at 388 nm. Noteworthily, the enantiomeric crystals of BTPT not only demonstrated significant circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) with large luminescence dissymmetry factor in the 10?3 order but also displayed obvious room temperature phosphorescence (RTP). The relationship between this innovative helical unit and unique photophysical properties, including ultraviolet MRTADF, CPL, and RTP, was reasonably revealed.
Polystyrene (PS) fibers with core-shell structure were prepared by coaxial electrostatic spinning using liquid epoxy or curing agent as the core and PS solution as the shell. Scratch self-healing coatings were realized by using the healant-loaded core-shell fibers in the matrix. 相似文献
The emission spectra of BiO(A ~2Π_(1/2)) have been first obtained by studying the reaction Bi+N_2O in the heat pipe oven. 18 new bands are obtained from the emission spectra of BiO(A ~2Π_(1/2)) which are attributed to the reaction of atomic Bi~*(~2D_(3/2)) with N_2O(~1Σ_g~+). The metastable Bi~*(~2D_(3/2)) is produced by the following processes: Bi(~4S_(3/2))+N_2O(~1Σ_g~+)→BiO(X_2~2Π_(3/2)), and then,BiO(X_2~2Π_(3/2))+Bi(~4S_(3/2))→Bi~*(~2D_(3/2))+BiO(X_1~2Π_(1/2)). 相似文献
Two new alkaloids, i.e., (2,3‐dihydro‐1‐oxo‐1H‐pyrrolo[1,2‐a]pyrrol‐7‐yl)methyl (2S*,3S*)‐3‐[(β‐D ‐glucopyranosyl)oxy]‐2‐hydroxy‐2‐(1‐methylethyl)butanoate ( 1 ) and 1,2‐dihydro‐8‐methoxy‐2‐oxoquinoline‐4‐carboxylic acid ( 2 ), were isolated from the alcoholic extract of the whole plant of Cynoglossum gansuense, together with twelve known compounds Their structures were characterized by means of spectroscopic methods, especially by 1H‐, 13C‐, and 2D‐NMR, as well as by HR‐MS experiments and comparison with literature data. 相似文献
Dexmedetomidine (DEX) is an anesthetic that is widely used in the clinic, and it has been reported to exhibit paradoxical effects in the progression of multiple solid tumors. In this study, we sought to explore the mechanism by which DEX regulates hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression underlying liver fibrosis. We determined the effects of DEX on tumor progression in an orthotopic HCC mouse model of fibrotic liver. A coculture system and a subcutaneous xenograft model involving coimplantation of mouse hepatoma cells (H22) and primary activated hepatic stellate cells (aHSCs) were used to study the effects of DEX on HCC progression. We found that in the preclinical mouse model of liver fibrosis, DEX treatment significantly shortened median survival time and promoted tumor growth, intrahepatic metastasis and pulmonary metastasis. The DEX receptor (ADRA2A) was mainly expressed in aHSCs but was barely detected in HCC cells. DEX dramatically reinforced HCC malignant behaviors in the presence of aHSCs in both the coculture system and the coimplantation mouse model, but DEX alone exerted no significant effects on the malignancy of HCC. Mechanistically, DEX induced IL-6 secretion from aHSCs and promoted HCC progression via STAT3 activation. Our findings provide evidence that the clinical application of DEX may cause undesirable side effects in HCC patients with liver fibrosis.Subject terms: Cancer microenvironment, Cell growth相似文献
A thin polymer melt on a substrate can be unstable to an electric field normal to the interface, a phenomenon that can be harnessed as a patterning technique with a range of potential applications. Motivated by the variety of patterns observed in experiments for polymers under both unpatterned and patterned masks, we describe here, from theoretical and numerical analyses, how nonlinear effects govern the growth of the instability and determine the final patterns. In particular, we discuss the nonlinear growth in terms of interactions among different Fourier modes and show that the second- and third-order nonlinearities favor the growth of hexagonal patterns under a featureless mask, in agreement with experimental observations. Also, numerical simulations based on the fully nonlinear model validate the prediction of the weakly nonlinear analysis: hexagonal patterns do emerge under an unpatterned mask. Furthermore, in one-dimensional simulations, we demonstrate the energetic evolution of this patterning process and reveal several "kinetically stable structures" along the path to the thermodynamically stable state. Two-dimensional simulations allow us to study the effects of both mask patterns and the initial film thickness. Generally, patterns on the mask guide the growth such that the pattern conforms to the geometric shapes. Interestingly, a small cylindrical protrusion at the center of the mask can produce exactly the same pattern as a large, flat, circular protrusion. The initial film thickness or the thickness ratio of the polymer layer to the air gap plays an important role in determining the final pattern formed. Finally, we demonstrate, by two simple examples, that the simulations can provide insights on "smart" mask designs for producing large areas of well-ordered patterns. 相似文献
