The transfer of graphene from metallic substrates onto application-specific substrates is usually inevitable for the applications of high-quality graphene films derived from chemical vapour deposition(CVD)approaches.Commonly used to support the graphene films during the transfer,the coating of the polymer would produce the surface contaminations and hinder the industrially compatible transfer.In this work,through the thermal imidization of polyamide acid(PAA)to polyimide(PI)and tuning of the concentration of dangling chains,we achieved the ultraclean and crack-free transfer of graphene wafers with high electronic quality.The resulting contamination-free and hydrophilic surface also enabled the observed improved cell viability in a biomedical applications.By avoiding aqueous etching or the usage of strong bases,our proposed transfer method is industrially compatible for batch transfer of graphene films towards the real applications.
The construction of hydrogels with good mechanical properties and phosphorescent properties is full of challenges.Herein,we report a supramolecular phosphorescent hydrogel with long lifetime,high tensile strength and self-healing property,which can be easily constructed through in-situ thermalinitiated polymerization of isocyanatoethyl acrylate-modifiedβ-cyclodextrin(β-CD-DA)and acrylatemodified adamantane(Ad-DA),acrylic acid(AA),followed by the non-covalent association with carbon dots(CNDs).The lifetime of phosphorescent hydrogel can reach 1261 ms at room temperature,and the quantum yield is 11%.Importantly,through the efficient triplet to singlet Förster resonance energy transfer(TS-FRET),the phosphorescent hydrogel shows the good phosphorescence energy transfer property for organic dyes Rhodamine B and Eosin Y with the delayed fluorescence lifetime up to 730 ms and 585 ms as well as the energy transfer efficiency(Φ_(ET))up to 99.9%and 99.3%,respectively.Moreover,owing to the host-guest interactions betweenβ-CD-DA and Ad-DA,the three-dimensional cross-linked network phosphorescent hydrogel can be easily stretched to 18 times of its original length,and can achieve self-healing of the cut surfaces within 30 min.These results will expand the scope of phosphorescent materials and provide new ideas and opportunities for materials science.
An agile earth-observing satellite equipped with multimode cameras capable of transmitting observation data to other satellites is developed to rapidly respond to requests with multiple observation modes.This gives rise to the Multisatellite Multimode Crosslink Scheduling(MMCS)problem,which involves allocating observation requests to agile satellites,selecting appropriate timing and observation modes for the requests,and transmitting the data to the ground station via the satellite communication system.Herein,a mixed integer programming model is introduced to include all complex time and operation constraints.To solve the MMCS problem,a two-stage heuristic method,called Fast insertion Tabu Search with Conflict-avoidance(FTS-C)heuristic,is developed.In the first stage,a conflict-avoidance insertion algorithm is designed to generate a high-quality initial solution by considering the requests transmission and download.Further,the tabu search-based second stage optimizes the initial solution.Finally,an extensive empirical study based on a real-world situation demonstrates that FTS-C can generate a solution with higher quality in less time than other state-of-the-art algorithms and the CPLEX solver.
Colorectal cancer(CRC)ranks third in the number of cancers mainly because of the inability to diagnose it at an early stage.The pathogenesis of CRC is complicated,which is the result of the complex interaction of multiple genetic and environmental factors.Currently,one of the main treatments for CRC is chemotherapy.But the primary cause of CRC treatment failure is drug resistance.The expression of cyclin-dependent kinase 9(CDK9)was correlated with elevated autophagy levels in colon cancer,and high expression of CDK9 indicates a poor prognosis in CRC.The incidence of autophagy and the expressions of Beclin 1 and ATP binding cassette transporter G2 are different in left and right colon cancer,and autophagy may be involved in the occurrence of chemotherapy resistance.In this article,the roles of CDK9,ATP binding cassette transporter G2 and Beclin 1 in CRC were elucidated,emphasizing the linkages among them and providing potential therapeutic targets of CRC.
