    Abstract: High‐efficiency multichannel waveguiding components are desirable for integrated photonic systems to realize optical information processing and communication interconnection. Although different branched micro‐/nanostructures have been used as nanoscale multichannel waveguides, the propagation losses from their junctions are very high, which limits their applications in on‐chip photonic systems. Here, a new cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanowire branched heterostructure, with tin (Sn) nanoparticles implanted in its junctions, is achieved via a single‐step vapor deposition method. The self‐organized formation process of this structure is well investigated, through step‐by‐step observations during the growth. The implanted Sn nanoparticles in the junctions can act as strong light‐scattering centers, greatly improving the optical transportation from the backbone to the branches of the structure. Contrasting experiments demonstrate that the light‐guiding efficiency in the heterostructured nanowire branch waveguide is 20 times higher than that of the branched structures without Sn nanoparticles. Theoretical simulations further demonstrate the existence of Sn nanoparticles can greatly enhance the light scattering at the junctions and improve the light‐guiding performance. This kind of Sn‐CdS nanowire branched heterostructures may find promising applications for integrated photonic devices and systems.

    Abstract: In recent years, the FLASH effect, in which ultrahigh dose rate (UHDR) radiotherapy (RT) can significantly reduce toxicity to normal tissue while maintaining antitumor efficacy, has been verified in many studies and even applied in human clinical cases. This work evaluates whether a room‐temperature radio‐frequency (RF) linear accelerator (linac) system can produce UHDR high‐energy X‐rays exceeding a dose rate of 40 Gy/s at a clinical source‐surface distance (SSD), exploring the possibility of a compact and economical clinical FLASH RT machine suitable for most hospital treatmentrooms. Methods A 1.65 m long S‐band backward‐traveling‐wave (BTW) electron linac was developed to generate high‐current electron beams, supplied by a commercial klystron‐based power source. A tungsten‐copper electron‐to‐photon conversion target for UHDR X‐rays was designed and optimized with Monte Carlo (MC) simulations using Geant4 and thermal finite element analysis (FEA) simulations using ANSYS. EBT3 and EBT‐XD radiochromic films, which were calibrated with a clinical machine Varian VitalBeam, were used for absolute dose measurements. A PTW ionization chamber detector was used to measure the relative total dose and a plane‐parallel ionization chamber detector was used to measure the relative normalized dose of each pulse. Results The BTW linac generated 300‐mA‐pulse‐current 11 MeV electron beams with 29 kW mean beam power, and the conversion target could sustain this high beam power within a maximum irradiation duration of 0.75 s. The mean energy of the produced X‐rays was 1.66 MeV in the MC simulation. The measured flat‐filter‐free (FFF) maximum mean dose rate of the room‐temperature linac exceeded 80 Gy/s at an SSD of 50 cm and 45 Gy/s at an SSD of 67.9 cm, both at a 2.1 cm depth of the water phantom. The FFF radiation fields at 50 cm and 67.9 cm SSD at a 2.1 cm depth of the water phantom showed Gaussian‐like distributions with 14.3 and 20 cm full‐width at half‐maximum (FWHM) values, respectively. Conclusion This work demonstrated the feasibility of UHDR X‐rays produced by a room‐temperature RF linac, and explored the further optimization of system stability. It shows that a simple and compact UHDR X‐ray solution can be facilitated for both FLASH‐RT scientific research and clinical applications.

    Abstract: Droplet impact on solid surfaces is essential both in nature and industry. Precisely regulating the dynamic behavior of droplet impact is of great significance for energy harvesting, anti‐icing, inkjet printing, pesticide spraying, and many other fields. Various rebounding behaviors (deposition, rebounding, rotation, instability control, and so on) and rebounding intrinsic parameters (such as contact time) after droplets impacting on solid surfaces can be regulated by surface engineering. This paper reviews the advances in regulating droplet impact behavior from the perspective of symmetry by modifying solid surfaces from the following aspects: chemical modification and physical structure regulation, in which the symmetry is discussed from mirror symmetry and rotational symmetry. Firstly, the symmetry of the droplet impact dynamics and its influencing factors are introduced. Then the modulation of droplet impact symmetry, using homogeneous and heterogeneous chemically modified solid surfaces, is summarized. The following presents the influence of physical structures, from micro to macro scale compared to the droplet size, on the droplet impact symmetry. Finally, the future challenges and opportunities of the droplet impact behavior regulation are discussed.

    In: Solar RRL, Wiley, Vol. 5, No. 12 ( 2021-12)
    Abstract: Solar steam generation (SSG) offers a clean and sustainable way to produce freshwater from seawater or polluted water by harvesting solar energy. However, it remains a great challenge to integrate all the desired functions in a single evaporation system by using low‐cost materials and simple methods. Herein, we report the design and fabrication of a novel inorganic solar steam evaporator (PPy‐HGMAM) through binding the building block of hollow glass microspheres (HGM) and pore‐forming material of melamine sponge (MS) with interconnection network structure by aluminum dihydrogen phosphate adhesive followed by coating of polypyrrole (PPy) as light absorption layer for efficient SSG. With the merits of high porosity, low thermal conductivity both in the wet (0.107 W m −1  k −1 ) and dry (0.056 W m −1  k −1 ) states, super‐hydrophilicity, and strong light absorption (92%), the as‐prepared porous PPy‐HGMAM shows high energy conversion efficiency (92.9%) and evaporation rate (1.56 kg m −2  h −1 ) under 1 sun (1 kW m −2 ) illumination, as well as excellent salt‐resistance performance. Combined with its high mechanical strength, self‐floating ability, environment‐friendly, and low cost, along with simple and scalable preparation method, our inorganic PPy‐HGMAM evaporator may hold the great potential for practical large‐scale application in SSG.

    Abstract: Thermally stable and well‐defined hydrocarbon polymers prepared via anionic alternating copolymerization of 1,3‐pentadiene (P monomer: trans (TP) and cis (CP) mixture) and styrene derivatives (S monomer: styrene (St) and 1,1‐diphenylethylene (DPE)) and subsequent hydrogenation and cationic cyclization modifications are reported. The TP/S/CP terpolymerization reveals that an incorporation of S‐ alt ‐CP sequence into the alternating chain is more favorable, while the S‐ alt ‐TP insertion is also possible especially under high temperature owing to their competitive energy barriers and thermodynamic properties. Then the resultant copolymers with equimolar amount of the two monomers and predominant linear units are intramolecularly cyclized with CF 3 SO 3 H, or hydrogenated with p‐toluenesulfonyl hydrazide, to afford soluble and thermally stable hydrocarbon polymers with controlled Mns and narrow Đ M s. The T g of cylized polymer increases dramatically (Δ T g   〉 100 °C) on cyclization between the adjacent CC bond in the P structure and the aromatic ring of S unit through the intramolecular Friedel–Crafts alkylation. On the other hand, the T g of hydrogenated product slightly decreases (Δ T g ≈ 10 °C) after 98% hydrogenation due to the increasing flexibility of the saturated main‐chain, while the Td increases about 60 °C due to the loss of CC bonds under oxygen atmosphere.

    Abstract: Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of microalgae for biofuel production is suffering from low bio‐oil yield and high heteroatomic compositions owing to their low efficiency and selectivity to hydrolysis of cellular compounds. Hereby we report Keggin‐type (Mo−V−P) heteropolyacids (HPAs)‐catalyzed HTL of microalgae for efficient low‐nitrogen biocrude production. The increases of reaction temperature, reaction time, and vanadium substitution degrees of HPAs are favorable to biocrude yield initially, whereas a significant decrease of biocrude yield is observed owing to the enhanced oxidation of carbohydrates above the optimum reaction conditions. The maximum biocrude yield of HPAs‐catalyzed HTL of microalgae is 29.95 % at reaction temperature of 300 °C, reaction time of 2 h, and 5 wt% of HPA‐4, which is about 19.66 % higher than that of control with 71.17 % less N‐containing compounds, including 1,3‐propanediamine, 1‐pentanamine, and 2, 2’‐heptamethylene‐di‐2‐imidazoline than that of control. This work reveals that HPAs with Brønsted acidity and reversible redox properties are capable of both enhancing biocrude production via catalyzing the hydrolysis of cellular compounds and reducing their nitrogen content through avoiding the Maillard reactions between the intermediates of hydrolysis of carbohydrates and proteins. HPAs‐catalyzed HTL is an efficient strategy to produce low N‐containing biofuels, possibly paving the way of their direct use in modern motors.

    Abstract: A positive association between obesity based on body mass index (BMI) and periodontitis has been reported. Fat tissue‐related systemic inflammation acts as the link to periodontal comorbidities of obesity. However, the BMI is unable to distinguish fat and fat‐free tissues. More precise measures are required to evaluate body composition, including fat and fat‐free tissues. This study aimed to determine the sex differences in the association between dual‐energy x‐ray absorptiometry (DXA)‐measured body composition (i.e., fat mass and muscle mass) and phenotypes with periodontitis. Methods Cross‐sectional data of 3892 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) study 2011‒2014 were analyzed. Adiposity indices (fat mass index [FMI] and percentage body fat [%BF] ) and muscle mass index (MMI) were calculated. The participants were categorized by the quintiles of FMI, MMI, and %BF. Body composition phenotypes were categorized as: low adiposity‐low muscle (LA‐LM), low adiposity‐high muscle (LA‐HM), high adiposity‐low muscle (HA‐LM), or high adiposity‐high muscle (HA‐HM), respectively. Periodontitis was defined by the CDC/AAP (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/American Academy of Periodontology) criteria. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted, stratified by sex. We further adjusted for white blood cell (WBC) counts in the sensitivity analysis. Results Restricted cubic splines revealed non‐linear associations between body composition indices and periodontitis risk. Women with a higher FMI (odds ratio for Q5 vs. Q1 [OR Q5vs1 ] = 1.787, 95% confidence interval: 1.209–2.640) or %BF (OR Q5vs1  = 2.221, 1.509–3.268) had increased odds of periodontitis. In addition, women with HA‐LM phenotype were more likely to develop periodontitis (OR = 1.528, 1.037–2.252). Interestingly, the WBC count, a systemic inflammatory biomarker, attenuated these associations. No statistically significant associations were found in men. Conclusions The association between DXA‐measured body composition and phenotypes with periodontitis differs per sex. Only in women higher adiposity indices and HA‐LM phenotype were associated with an increased risk of periodontitis.

    Abstract: Hydroxyl functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (H‐MWNTs) were silanized using 3‐aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) in order to improve the dispersion and interfacial interaction in composites. MWNT/polycarbonate (PC) composites filled with H‐MWNTs and silanized MWNTs (S‐MWNTs) were fabricated by melt mixing and injection molding. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR) and energy dispersion X‐ray spectroscopy (EDS) were employed to prove the presence of APTES on the surface of S‐MWNTs. In addition, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to evaluate the relative amount of introduced APTES. The microstructure and mechanical property of both composites were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), tensile test and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The SEM and TEM images showed that S‐MWNT/PC composites had better dispersion and interfacial adhesion than H‐MWNT/PC composites. A reinforcing and toughening effect on tensile behavior of composites was obtained after silane functionalization. The storage modulus of composites increased markedly as a function of MWNTs content, especially for the composites with S‐MWNTs. In summary, the silanization can improve the dispersion of MWNTs and the interfacial adhesion between MWNTs and PC so as to enhance the mechanical properties of composites. POLYM.
