Observation of Fano resonance and classical analog of electromagnetically induced transparency in toroidal metamaterials

Toroidal multipoles have recently been explored in various scientific communities, ranging from atomic and molecular physics, electrodynamics, and solid‐state physics to biology. Here we experimentally and numerically demonstrate a three‐dimensionsal toroidal metamaterial where two different toroidal dipoles along orthogonal directions have been observed. The chosen toroidal metamaterial also simultaneously supports Fano resonance and the classical analog of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) phenomena in the transmission spectra that originate from the electric–toroidal dipole and electric–magnetic dipole destructive interference. The intriguing properties of the toroidal resonances may open up avenues for applications in toroidal moments generator, sensing and slow‐light devices.

Stereodivergent synthesis of enantioenriched azepino[3,4,5-cd]-indoles via cooperative Cu/Ir-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation and intramolecular Friedel–Crafts reaction

The development of enantioselective annulation reactions using readily available substrates for the construction of structurally and stereochemically diverse heterocycles is a compelling topic in diversity-oriented synthesis. Herein, we report efficient catalytic asymmetric formal 1,3-dipolar (3 + 4) cycloadditions of azomethine ylides with 4-indolyl allylic carbonates for the construction of azepino[3,4,5-cd]-indoles fused with a challenging seven-membered N-heterocycle, a frequently occurring tricyclic indole scaffold in bioactive compounds and pharmaceuticals. Through cooperative Cu/Ir-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation followed by intramolecular Friedel–Crafts reaction, an array of azepino[3,4,5-cd]-indoles were obtained in good yields with excellent diastereo-/enantioselective control. More importantly, the full stereodivergence of this transformation was established via synergistic catalysis followed by acid-promoted epimerization, and up to eight stereoisomers of the cycloadducts bearing three stereogenic centers could be predictably achieved from the same set of starting materials for the first time. Quantum mechanical computations established a plausible mechanism for the synergistic Cu/Ir catalysis to stereodivergently introduce two vicinal stereocenters whose stereochemical information is remotely delivered across the fused azepine ring to control the third chiral center. Epimerization of the last center involves protonation-enabled reversal of the thermodynamically controlled relative configuration.

Spiking patterns of a hippocampus model in electric fields

We develop a model of CA3 neurons embedded in a resistive array to mimic the effects of electric fields from a new perspective. Effects of DC and sinusoidal electric fields on firing patterns in CA3 neurons are investigated in this study. The firing patterns can be switched from no firing pattern to burst or from burst to fast periodic firing pattern with the increase of DC electric field intensity. It is also found that the firing activities are sensitive to the frequency and amplitude of the sinusoidal electric field. Different phase-locking states and chaotic firing regions are observed in the parameter space of frequency and amplitude. These findings are qualitatively in accordance with the results of relevant experimental and numerical studies. It is implied that the external or endogenous electric field can modulate the neural code in the brain. Furthermore, it is helpful to develop control strategies based on electric fields to control neural diseases such as epilepsy.
