Article Abstract
We report here details of steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy of excitonic dynamics for Janus transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers, including MoSSe and WSSe, which were synthesized by low-energy implantation of Se into transition metal disulfides. Absorbance and photoluminescence spectroscopic measurements determined the room-temperature exciton resonances for MoSSe and WSSe monolayers. Transient absorption measurements revealed that the excitons in Janus structures form faster than those in pristine transition metal dichalcogenides by about 30% due to their enhanced electron-phonon interaction by the built-in dipole moment. By combining steady-state photoluminescence quantum yield and time-resolved transient absorption measurements, we find that the exciton radiative recombination lifetime in Janus structures is significantly longer than in their pristine samples, supporting the predicted spatial separation of the electron and hole wave functions due to the built-in dipole moment. These results provide fundamental insight in the optical properties of Janus transition metal dichalcogenides.

Convergent Paired Electrolysis Enables Electrochemical Halogen-Atom Transfer-Mediated Alkyl Radical Cross-Coupling.

The direct cross-coupling of unactivated alkyl halides with aryl or heteroaryl partners remains a fundamental challenge in synthetic chemistry due to their inertness and propensity for side reactions. Herein, we report a transition-metal-free electrochemical halogen-atom transfer strategy that enables efficient alkyl radical cross-coupling via convergent paired electrolysis. In this system, anodically generated α-aminoalkyl radicals mediate the activation of alkyl iodides, while aryl/heteroaryl aldehydes or nitriles undergo cathodic reduction to afford persistent ketyl radical anions or aryl radical anions.

The electrochemical trifluoromethylation/1,5-HAT of -cyanamide alkenes with CFSONa has been achieved to construct trifluoromethylated cyclic amidines and -acryloylpyrrolidin-2-one derivatives. This transformation was performed with readily available starting materials under mild conditions and required neither oxidants nor transition metal catalysts, exhibiting high atom economy.

Objectives: Antibiotic resistance towards penicillin has been attempted to counter by chemically modifying ampicillin through the conjugation with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The current study optimizes the conditions for synthesizing and characterizing AgNP-ampicillin to quantify the conjugation extent, evaluate the antibacterial efficacy, and explore the underlying antibacterial mechanisms.
Materials And Methods: AgNPs were synthesized from silver nitrate by chemical reduction method, silica-coated with tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and amine functionalized by (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES), which was then conjugated with ampicillin via the carbodiimide chemistry.

Sectionally nonlinearly functionally graded (SNFG) structures with triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) are considered ideal for bone implants because they closely replicate the hierarchical, anisotropic, and porous architecture of natural bone. The smooth gradient in material distribution allows for optimal load transfer, reduced stress shielding, and enhanced bone ingrowth, while TPMS provides high mechanical strength-to-weight ratio and interconnected porosity for vascularization and tissue integration. Wherein, The SNFG structure contains sections with thickness that varies nonlinearly along their length in different patterns.

Introduction: Triage is an essential strategy to mitigate crowding and guarantee patients' safety in emergency departments. To improve the quality of triage in emergency departments, Nurses should be equipped with the necessary competencies. Therefore, this review aims to synthesize available evidence on the competency elements required for triage nurses in emergency departments and to identify factors that influence their competency development.
