Quantum interference between identical single particles reveals the intrinsic quantum statistic nature of particles, which could not be interpreted through classical physics. Here, we demonstrate quantum interference between nonidentical bosons using a generalized beam splitter based on a quantum memory. The Hong-Ou-Mandel type interference between single photons and single magnons with high visibility is demonstrated, and the crossover from the bosonic to fermionic quantum statistics is observed by tuning the beam splitter to be non-Hermitian. Moreover, multiparticle interference that simulates the behavior of three fermions by three input photons is realized. Our work extends the understanding of the quantum interference effects and demonstrates a versatile experimental platform for studying and engineering quantum statistics of particles.

Recently, machine learning has had remarkable impact in scientific to everyday-life applications. However, complex tasks often require the consumption of unfeasible amounts of energy and computational power. Quantum computation may lower such requirements, although it is unclear whether enhancements are reachable with current technologies.

Background: Hexavalent chromium ions (Cr(VI)), a notorious toxic heavy metal pollutant with proven carcinogenicity, endangers human health and the environment. Meanwhile, l-ascorbic acid (L-AA), a vital biological antioxidant, has abnormal levels closely tied to various diseases. Developing efficient synchronous detection methods for these two key analytes is of great value in clinical and environmental monitoring.

A new variety of nitrogen-doped carbon dots (NCDs) was produced using a hydrothermal synthesis method, based on propanedioic acid and barbituric acid as the sources of carbon and nitrogen. The NCDs were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Zeta Potential,X-ray Diffraction(XRD),Thermogravimetry-Derivative Thermogravimetry(TG-DTG),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Fluorescence Lifetime. The characterization results indicate that NCDs possess an average diameter of approximately 2.

Chemiluminescence offers distinct advantages for bioimaging and sensing, notably by eliminating the need for external light excitation and minimizing background interference. While the original phenoxy-1,2-dioxetanes have served as the cornerstone of chemiluminescent probe design, their efficiency is significantly compromised in aqueous environments. In this study, we report the development and evaluation of phenylamine-substituted 1,2-dioxetanes as a new class of luminophores with markedly enhanced performance under physiological conditions.
