Improved Stretchable and Sensitive Fe Nanowire-Based Strain Sensor by Optimizing Areal Density of Nanowire Network

Flexible strain sensors, when considering high sensitivity and a large strain range, have become a key requirement for current robotic applications. However, it is still a thorny issue to take both factors into consideration at the same time. Here, we report a sandwich-structured strain sensor based on Fe nanowires (Fe NWs) that has a high GF (37–53) while taking into account a large strain range (15–57.5%), low hysteresis (2.45%), stability, and low cost with an areal density of Fe NWs of 4.4 mg/cm². Additionally, the relationship between the contact point of the conductive network, the output resistance, and the areal density of the sensing unit is analyzed. Microscopically, the contact points of the conductive network directly affect the sensor output resistance distribution, thereby affecting the gauge factor (GF) of the sensor. Macroscopically, the areal density and the output resistivity of the strain sensor have the opposite percolation theory, which affects its linearity performance. At the same time, there is a positive correlation between the areal density and the contact point: when the stretching amount is constant, it theoretically shows that the areal density affects the GF. When the areal density reaches this percolation threshold range, the sensing performance is the best. This will lay the foundation for rapid applications in wearable robots.     

Effect of biaxial strain and hydrostatic pressure on the magnetic properties of bilayer CrI3

Two-dimensional van der Waals magnetic materials are intriguing for applications in the future spintronics devices, so it is crucial to explore strategy to control the magnetic properties. Here, we carried out first-principles calculations and Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the effect of biaxial strain and hydrostatic pressure on the magnetic properties of the bilayer CrI₃. We found that the magnetic anisotropy, intralayer and interlayer exchange interactions, and Curie temperature can be tuned by biaxial strain and hydrostatic pressure. Large compressive biaxial strain may induce a ferromagneticto-antiferromagnetic transition of both CrI₃ layers. The hydrostatic pressure could enhance the intralayer exchange interaction significantly and hence largely boost the Curie temperature. The effect of the biaxial strain and hydrostatic pressure revealed in the bilayer CrI₃ may be generalized to other two-dimensional magnetic materials.     

UPLC-MS-Based Metabolomic Study of Streptomyces Strain HCCB10043 Under Different pH Conditions Reveals Important Pathways Affecting the Biosynthesis of A21978C Compounds

The A21978C family of compounds includes precursors of daptomycin, an important antibiotic for the treatment of diseases infected by Gram-positive resistant bacteria. Focusing on these valuable compounds, the differences in metabolites obtained with or without pH control in their producing strain Streptomyces parvus HCCB10043 were investigated by comparative metabolomics analysis based on UPLC-TOF-MS technology. According to principal component analysis, there were fourteen biomarker compounds selected under the two pH culture conditions. The ten known compounds were divided into two types: a glycoside family participating in the primary metabolism (daidzein, glycitein, genistein, and soyasaponin Bb) and a peptide family of secondary metabolites (valistatin, bestatin, 3-amino-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutanoylvalylisoleucine, and arylomycins A2, A4, and A5). Through orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis, three compounds, soyasaponin Bb and arylomycins A2 and A4 were identified as the most relevant compounds to A21978C1-3 production, the glycolytic pathway, and the NRPS synthesis pathway. The competitive relationship between arylomycin and A21978C was verified. These results have demonstrated the usefulness of the metabolomic strategy based on UPLC-MS in studying significant metabolic changes in actinomycetes. Moreover, this metabolomic strategy can provide new ideas and guidance for the regulation and improvement of secondary metabolites production.
