Bioinspired Nanozymes with pH‐Independent and Metal Ions‐Controllable Activity: Field‐Programmable Logic Conversion of Sole Logic Gate System

In nature, different environmental factors make organisms to be programmed into different forms. However, it is difficult and significant to realize the field‐programmable logic conversion of sole logic system for molecular logic gates. Here, the concept of pH‐programmable “logic conversion” on the single logic gate based on the peculiar enzyme‐mimicking activity is presented. Inspired by natural enzymes with high pH‐stability and metal ions‐stimulated activity, pH‐independent and metal ions‐controllable catalase mimics (Co₃O₄ nanozymes) are designed by protein‐directed method. Although pH cannot directly change the activity of nanozymes, pH can change the existence state of metal ions and then the electron transfer rate on nanozymes. So, versatile roles of metal ions for catalase‐like and electrocatalytic activities are discovered on the premise of pH‐independency. For the proof‐of‐concept, OR/INHIBIT‐ and INHIBIT/AND‐switchable logic gates are facilely constructed using pH as the environmental stimulus and metal ions as inputs. Hence, the transformation of logic gate functions is realized without the change of logic gate elements and input molecules. This contribution may not only broaden the species and application area of nanozymes, but also open novel avenues for the molecular logic conversion and the metal ions sensor.

Phase matching limitation of high-efficiency second-harmonic generation in both phase- and group-velocity-matched structures

In this paper, we studied efficient second-harmonic generation (SHG) of femtosecond pulses in both phase- and group-velocity-matched structures. Obtained results show that phase matching becomes more critical under conditions required for high levels of conversion efficiency. And the imperfect phase mismatch caused by mismatched group-velocity dispersion (GVD) will limit conversion efficiency as well as bandwidth of generated second-harmonic (SH) pulses. The spectral characteristics of the generated SH pulses and its conversion efficiency in the strong pump regime are investigated in detail. The acceptance bandwidth of nonlinear crystal in the high-efficiency SHG is redefined in the paper, and the definition is much closer to the practical application of design.     

Conversion issues between microwave radiance and brightness temperature

Microwave radiances are usually converted into brightness temperatures for data assimilation and retrievals. The Rayleigh-Jeans approximation has been believed to be a good approximation for the conversion at low frequencies, but inaccurate at high frequencies. However, the simplified radiative transfer models under the Rayleigh-Jeans approximation (hereafter referred as BT-RTE) have been successfully applied in radiance simulations for frequencies below 183 GHz, which has somewhat puzzled the radiative transfer community. This paper clarifies the confusion. In addition, the conversion formula for the third and the fourth Stokes components are derived.Simulations for a polarized sensor, the Special Sensor Microwave Imager and Sounder, show that the BT-RTE is generally accurate. Results for a polarimetric sensor, WINDSAT, show that the third and the fourth Stokes radiances should be converted using the exact conversion formula given in this study rather than using a direct Planck function conversion.     

Streaming potential analysis on the hydrodynamic transport of pressure-driven flow through a rotational microchannel

In this study, the streaming potential and electrokinetic energy conversion efficiency are discussed under the low zeta potential approximation through a microparallel channel with consideration of rotational effect. By solving Poisson-Boltzmann equation and modified Navier–Stokes equation, the analytical expressions of the streaming potential and electrokinetic energy conversion efficiency in the electrolyte solution are obtained. Combining with the numerical calculation, the influences of the dimensionless electrokinetic width K and the rotational angular velocity ω on streaming potential and the electrokinetic energy conversion efficiency are discussed. The results show that the streaming potential fields decrease both in mainstream and secondary directions with the electrokinetic width K, it decreases with the non-dimensional rotational angular velocity in the mainstream direction and it shows a first increasing then decreasing trend in the secondary flow direction. In addition, the influences of related non-dimensional parameters, including electrokinetic width, wall electric potential and rotational angular velocity, on the electrokinetic energy conversion efficiency are also discussed in detail. The rotating effect can enhance conversion efficiency comparing to the case of no rotation. The increase of wall electric potential gives rise to an augment in electrokinetic energy conversion efficiency. These theoretical results make sense to the energy harvesting in the rotating microfluidic systems.

AgGaS2- and Al-doped GaSe Crystals for IR Applications

We report a systematic study of AgGaS₂- and Al-doped GaSe crystals in comparison with pure GaSe and S-doped GaSe crystals. AgGaS₂-doped GaSe (GaSe:AgGaS₂) crystal was grown by Bridgman technique from the melt of GaSe:AgGaS₂ (10.6 wt.%). Its real composition was identified as GaSe:S (2 wt.%). Al-doped GaSe (GaSe:Al) crystals were grown from the melt of GaSe and 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2 mass % of aluminium. Al content in the grown crystals is too small to be measured. The hardness of GaSe:S (2 wt.%) crystal grown from the melt of GaSe:AgGaS₂ is 25% higher than that of GaSe:S (2 wt.%) crystal grown by a conventional S-doping technique and 1.5- to 1.9-times higher than that of pure GaSe. GaSe:Al crystals are characterized by 2.5- to 3-times higher hardness than that of pure GaSe and by extremely low conductivity of ≤ 10^− 7 Om^− 1 cm^− 1. A comparative experiment on SHG in AgGaS₂-, Al-, S-doped GaSe and pure GaSe is carried out under the pumps of 2.12-2.9 μm fs OPA and 9.2−10.8 μm ns CO₂ laser. It was found that GaSe:S crystals possess the best physical properties for mid-IR applications among these doped GaSe crystals. GaSe:Al crystals have relatively low conductivity which have strong potential for THz application.
