采用电压复位技术的像素级模数转换器

This paper presents a 50 Hz 15-bit analog-to-digital converter(ADC) for pixel-level implementation in CMOS image sensors.The ADC is based on charge packets counting and adopts a voltage reset technique to inject charge packets.The core circuit for charge/pulse conversion is specially optimized for low power,low noise and small area.An experimental chip with ten pixel-level ADCs has been fabricated and tested for verification.The measurement result shows a standard deviation of 1.8 LSB for full-scale output.The ADC has an area of 4545 m2 and consumes less than 2 W in a standard 1P-6M 0.18 m CMOS process.

The Extracts of Polygonum cuspidatum Root and Rhizome Block the Entry of SARS-CoV-2 Wild-Type and Omicron Pseudotyped Viruses via Inhibition of the S-Protein and 3CL Protease

COVID-19, resulting from infection by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, caused a contagious pandemic. Even with the current vaccines, there is still an urgent need to develop effective pharmacological treatments against this deadly disease. Here, we show that the water and ethanol extracts of the root and rhizome of Polygonum cuspidatum (Polygoni Cuspidati Rhizoma et Radix), a common Chinese herbal medicine, blocked the entry of wild-type and the omicron variant of the SARS-CoV-2 pseudotyped virus into fibroblasts or zebrafish larvae, with IC₅₀ values ranging from 0.015 to 0.04 mg/mL. The extracts were shown to inhibit various aspects of the pseudovirus entry, including the interaction between the spike protein (S-protein) and the angiotensin-converting enzyme II (ACE2) receptor, and the 3CL protease activity. Out of the chemical compounds tested in this report, gallic acid, a phytochemical in P. cuspidatum, was shown to have a significant anti-viral effect. Therefore, this might be responsible, at least in part, for the anti-viral efficacy of the herbal extract. Together, our data suggest that the extracts of P. cuspidatum inhibit the entry of wild-type and the omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2, and so they could be considered as potent treatments against COVID-19.     

水杨酸甲酯在β-环糊精水溶液中的双重荧光光谱

研究了β-环糊精(β-CD)及其衍生物甲基-β-环糊精(M-β-CD)、羟丙基-β-环糊精(HP-β-CD)对水杨酸甲酯(MS)双重荧光光谱的影响,并将其与MS在不同溶剂中的荧光光谱进行对比。结果表明,MS的双重荧光与所处微环境的氢键性质密切相关,β-CD取代基的大小会导致空腔口处的极性和空间位阻不同,相应改变了分子间氢键相互作用,当MS分子进入β-CDs空腔时会引起其基态互变异构体之间平衡的移动,从而导致光谱的变化。包合物稳定常数测定表明,三种β-CDs对MS包合能力的大小为M-β-CD>HP-β-CD>β-CD。

Power harvesting with PZT ceramics and circuits design

Power generated from a piezoelectric material usually comes with poor characteristics such as high voltage, low current and high impedance. In order to drive the embedded sensor circuit, piezoelectric power needs to be characterized and regulated. In this paper, we present an analysis on the power generation characteristics and the efficiency of power conversion of the stiff lead zirconate titanate (PZT) ceramics. Moreover, a power circuit design is put forward in the application where PZT elements are used for power generation in a TKR implant. A hybrid direct current (DC)–DC, comprising a switched capacitor (SC) DC–DC converter and a low dropout (LDO) linear voltage regulator, is presented. The variable ratio SC converter has been taped out with 0.35 μm CMOS technology. The test results show that the SC converter can transfer the input voltage that ranges from 5 to 14 V from the PZT ceramics into the voltage ranging from 2 to 2.5 V which will be dealt with by LDO circuit whose efficiency can reach 80%.     

Boosting the Charge Transport Property of Indeno[1,2‐b]fluorene‐6,12‐dione though Incorporation of Sulfur‐ or Nitrogen‐Linked Side Chains

Alkyl chains are basic units in the design of organic semiconductors for purposes of enhancing solubility, tuning electronic energy levels, and tailoring molecular packing. This work demonstrates that the carrier mobilities of indeno[1,2‐b ]fluorene‐6,12‐dione ( IFD )‐based semiconductors can be dramatically enhanced by the incorporation of sulfur‐ or nitrogen‐linked side chains. Three IFD derivatives possessing butyl, butylthio, and dibutylamino substituents are synthesized, and their organic field‐effect transistors (OFET) are fabricated and characterized. The IFD possessing butyl substituents exhibits a very poor charge transport property with mobility lower than 10^?7 cm² V^?1 s^?1. In contrast, the hole mobility is dramatically increased to 1.03 cm² V^?1 s^?1 by replacing the butyl units with dibutylamino groups ( DBA‐IFD ), while the butylthio‐modified IFD ( BT‐IFD ) derivative exhibits a high and balanced ambipolar charge transport property with the maximum hole and electron mobilities up to 0.71 and 0.65 cm² V^?1 s^?1, respectively. Moreover, the complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor‐like inverters incorporated with the ambipolar OFETs shows sharp inversions with a maximum gain value up to 173. This work reveals that modification of the aromatic core with heteroatom‐linked side chains, such as alkylthio or dialkylamino, can be an efficient strategy for the design of high‐performance organic semiconductors.
