Eu@C86 isomers: Calculated relative populations

Abstract

Relative populations of four energy-lowest IPR (isolated-pentagon-rule) isomers of Eu@C₈₆ are computed using the Gibbs energy based on characteristics from density functional theory calculations (M06-2X/3-21G?～?SDD entropy term, M06-2X/6-31G*～SDD or B2PLYP(D)/6-31G*～SDD energetics). The calculations confirm that the recently isolated Eu@C₁(7)-C₈₆ species is a major isomer in a relevant temperature region. Relationship to the empty C₈₆ cages is discussed, too.

A distributed energy system integrating SOFC-MGT with mid-and-low temperature solar thermochemical hydrogen fuel production

Solar thermochemical hydrogen production with energy level upgraded from solar thermal to chemical energy shows great potential. By integrating mid-and-low temperature solar thermochemistry and solid oxide fuel cells, in this paper, a new distributed energy system combining power, cooling, and heating is proposed and analyzed from thermodynamic, energy and exergy viewpoints. Different from the high temperature solar thermochemistry (above 1073.15 K), the mid-and-low temperature solar thermochemistry utilizes concentrated solar thermal (473.15–573.15 K) to drive methanol decomposition reaction, reducing irreversible heat collection loss. The produced hydrogen-rich fuel is converted into power through solid oxide fuel cells and micro gas turbines successively, realizing the cascaded utilization of fuel and solar energy. Numerical simulation is conducted to investigate the system thermodynamic performances under design and off-design conditions. Promising results reveal that solar-to-hydrogen and net solar-to-electricity efficiencies reach 66.26% and 40.93%, respectively. With the solar thermochemical conversion and hydrogen-rich fuel cascade utilization, the system exergy and overall energy efficiencies reach 59.76% and 80.74%, respectively. This research may provide a pathway for efficient hydrogen-rich fuel production and power generation.

基于深度卷积神经网络的视觉里程计研究

视觉里程计利用视频信息来估计相机运动的位姿参数，实现对智能体的定位。传统视觉里程计方法需要特征提取、特征匹配/跟踪、外点剔除、运动估计、优化等流程，解算非常复杂，因此，提出了基于卷积神经网络的方法来实现端对端的单目视觉里程计。借助卷积神经网络对彩色图片自动学习提取图像帧间变化的全局特征，将用于分类的卷积神经网络转化为帧间时序特征网络，通过三层全连接层输出相机的帧间相对位姿参数。在KITTI数据集上的实验结果表明，提出的Deep-CNN-VO模型可以较准确地估计车辆的运动轨迹，证明了方法的可行性。在简化了复杂模型的基础上，与传统的视觉里程计系统相比，该模型的精度也有所提高。     

Dandelion-Like Bi2S3/rGO hierarchical microspheres as high-performance anodes for potassium-ion and half/full sodium-ion batteries

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) and potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) have been considered as attractive alternatives for next-generation battery systems, which have promising application potential due to their earth abundance of potassium and sodium, high capacity and suitable working potential, however, the design and application of bi-functional high-performance anode still remain a great challenge up to date. Bismuth sulfide is suitable as anode owing to its unique laminar structure with relatively large interlayer distance to accommodate larger radius ions, high theoretical capacity and high volumetric capacity etc. In this study, dandelion-like Bi₂S₃/rGO hierarchical microspheres as anode material for PIBs displayed reversible capacity, and 206.91 mAh·g⁻¹ could be remained after 1,200 cycles at a current density of 100 mA·g⁻¹. When applied as anode materials for SIBs, 300 mAh·g⁻¹ could be retained after 300 cycles at 2 A·g⁻¹ and its initial Coulombic efficiency is as high as 97.43%. Even at high current density of 10 A·g⁻¹, 120.3 mAh·g⁻¹ could be preserved after 3,400 cycles. The Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃@rGO//Bi₂S₃/rGO sodium ion full cells were successfully assembled which displays stable performance after 60 cycles at 100 mA·g⁻¹. The above results demonstrate that Bi₂S₃/rGO has application potential as high performance bi-functional anode for PIBs and SIBs.
