Article Abstract

Generating controllable spatial self-phase modulation (SSPM), such as self-diffraction, is a challenge in the near-infrared (NIR) band. CuS nanoplates (NPs) and their heterojunction nanoplates (HNPs) were confirmed to enable enhancement SSPM between 800 nm and 1550 nm, as p-type semiconductors with localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). CuS NPs with particle sizes of 36 nm and 53 nm both exhibit this enhancement, dominated by LSPR-induced hole interband transitions, proofed by the results of open aperture (OA) Z-scan and transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy. Furthermore, the sign inversion of the third-order nonlinear optical coefficients between 1300 nm and 1550 nm was achieved by modulating the copper-sulfur ratio from 1.94 to 1.81 in CuS. It was attributed to the introduction of additional hole carriers by increasing the amount of copper deficiency, proofed by the blue shift of the LSPR absorption peak, the increase of the carrier relaxation time, and a decrease in the saturable intensity . Meanwhile, the unchanged or decreased hole carrier concentration in CdS-CuS and Ag-CuS HNPs resulted in unchanged or opposite outcomes. It is presented that utilizing the LSPR of hole semiconductor materials could realize the modulation of SSPM in the NIR band.

Ni-Fe (oxy)hydroxides are among the most active oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts in alkaline media. However, achieving precise control over local asymmetric Fe-O-Ni active sites in Ni-Fe oxyhydroxides for key oxygenated intermediates' adsorption steric configuration regulation of the OER is still challenging. Herein, we report a two-step dealloying strategy to fabricate asymmetric Fe-O-Ni pair sites in the shell of NiOOH@FeOOH/NiOOH heterostructures from NiFe Prussian blue analogue (PBA) nanocubes, involving anion exchange and structure reconstruction.

Despite the promise of electrochemical biosensors in amplified nucleic acid diagnostics, existing high-sensitivity platforms often rely on a multilayer surface assembly and cascade amplification confined to the electrode interface. These stepwise strategies suffer from inefficient enzyme activity, poor mass transport, and inconsistent probe orientation, which compromise the amplification efficiency, reproducibility, and practical applicability. To address these limitations, we report a programmable dual-phase electrochemical biosensing system that decouples amplification from signal transduction.

In industrial scenarios, semantic segmentation of surface defects is vital for identifying, localizing, and delineating defects. However, new defect types constantly emerge with product iterations or process updates. Existing defect segmentation models lack incremental learning capabilities, and direct fine-tuning (FT) often leads to catastrophic forgetting.

This study aimed to investigate the age-related alterations in mesial roots of mandibular first molar in terms of root canal curvature values, dentin thickness, interorifice distance, deviation from apical foramen, and location of apical foramen using a three-dimensional curvature measurement method and micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). Forty-five mesial roots of mandibular first molars from three age groups (Group 1: ≤ 30 years, Group 2: 31-59 years, Group 3: ≥ 60 years) were scanned using micro-CT. The central axis of each mesiobuccal and mesiolingual canal was analyzed using cubic B-spline curves to calculate canal curvature.

Intermittent PTH treatment has been used as both an osteoanabolic treatment in osteoporosis and a hormone replacement in hypoparathyroidism for many years. This scoping review compiles and reinterprets studies using histomorphometry supported by bone turnover markers to investigate the elusive cellular effect of intermittent PTH treatment locally within the bone, while illuminating knowledge gaps. Intermittent PTH increases both osteoclast and osteoblast activity within the first 6 months of treatment.
