The rare earth materials have attracted intensive attention due to their strong luminescent characteristic. However, the split fine Stark levels are difficult to be determined. Here we report a room-temperature detection for Stark levels of YNbO: Er using established laser-induced spectroscopy system with dye laser of superhigh resolution of wavelength at 0.005 nm. From excitation spectra, six split Stark levels of G (Er) were directly detected. Moreover, nonradiative relaxations of G→G and G→H/ S have been observed with weighed lifetimes of 0.70 μs and 6.15 μs, and characteristic green emission of Er (@555 nm) yields lifetime of 31.78 μs.

Background: Medical treatments have improved survival rates for paediatric brain tumour (PBT), but the condition and treatment continue to be associated with significant cognitive morbidity. Nearly all survivors will experience some degree of cognitive impairment (neurocognitive 'late effects') that has a cascading impact on the development of intellectual and academic skills, quality of life, mental health, vocational attainment, and functional independence. Longstanding cognitive fatigue is also a prevalent symptom for survivors of PBT and further impacts engagement with therapeutic interventions and quality of life.

Electric gating in atomically thin field-effect devices based on transition-metal dichalcogenides has recently been employed to manipulate their excitonic states, even producing exotic phases of matter, such as an excitonic insulator or Bose-Einstein condensate. Here, we mimic the electric gating effect of a bilayer-MoS on graphite by charge transfer induced by the adsorption of molecular p- and n-type dopants. The electric fields produced are evaluated from the electronic energy-level realignment and Stark splitting determined by X-ray and UV photoelectron spectroscopy measurements and compare very well with literature values obtained by optical spectroscopy for similar systems.

Rare-earth ions (REIs), especially trivalent lanthanides (Ln ), are central to photonic technologies due to sharp intra-4f transitions, long lifetimes, and host-insensitive emission. However, modeling REIs remains challenging due to localized 4f orbitals, strong electron correlation, and multiplet structures. This review summarizes atomistic modeling strategies combining quantum chemistry and machine learning (ML).

Deep progressive learning reconstruction (DPR) is a novel deep learning-based algorithm for PET imaging, yet its impact on quantitative metrics and radiomic feature stability is not fully characterized. This preliminary study systematically evaluated DPR against conventional ordered-subset expectation maximization (OSEM) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) PET imaging. In this retrospective study of 24 NSCLC patients, PET data were reconstructed using OSEM and three DPR strength levels.

Developmental plasticity at the behavioral repertoire level allows animals to incrementally adjust their behavioral phenotypes to match their environments through ontogeny. Quantifying this plasticity in sufficient resolution across substantial periods of development, however, has been challenging. Here, we use high-resolution tracking to monitor 45 genetically identical Amazon mollies ( reared in near-identical environments over their first four weeks of life.
