Liquid Letters

Using the interfacial jamming of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) surfactants, a new concept, termed all‐liquid molding, is introduced to produce all‐liquid objects that retain the shape and details of the mold with high fidelity, yet remain all liquid and are responsive to external stimuli. This simple process, where the viscosity of the CNC dispersion can range from that of water to a crosslinked gel, opens tremendous opportunities for encapsulation, delivery systems, and unique microfluidic devices. The process described is generally applicable to any functionalized nanoparticles dispersed in one liquid and polymer ligands having complementary functionality dissolved in a second immiscible liquid. Such sculpted liquids retain all the characteristics of the liquids but retain shape indefinitely, very much like a solid, and provide a new platform for next‐generation soft materials.

Preparation and properties of a novel bone repair composite: nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan/carboxymethyl cellulose

Nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan/carboxymethyl cellulose (n-HA/CS/CMC) composites with weight ratios of 70/10/20, 70/15/15 and 70/20/10 were prepared through a co-solution method. The properties of the composites were characterized by means of burn-out test, IR, XRD, TEM and universal material testing machine. The degradation and bioactivity were also investigated by in vitro test in a simulated body fluid (SBF) for 8 weeks. The results showed that n-HA particles were dispersed uniformly in organic phase, and strong chemical interactions formed among the three phases. Moreover, the composites were similar to natural bone in morphology and size. In addition, the compressive strength was improved compared with n-HA/CS composite. The biodegradation rate was controllable by altering weight ratio of the CS/CMC. Meanwhile, the composites could induce apatite particles to deposit in SBF. All the above results indicate that the novel composites of n-HA/CS/CMC have a promising prospect used for bone repair materials in view of the good mechanical property, adjustable biodegradation rate and bioactivity in SBF. Additionally, the study would provide a good guide to exploit clinical application of natural cellulose.     

ARGET ATRP合成大分子偶联剂PMMA-b-PTMSPMA及其对玻璃表面的接枝

Deep level transient spectroscopy on charge traps in high-k ZrO2

The deep trap properties of high-dielectric-constant (k) ZrO₂ thin films were examined by deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS). The hole traps of a ZrO₂ dielectric deposited by sputtering were investigated in a MOS structure over the temperature range, 375 K-525 K. The potential depth, cross section and concentration of hole traps were estimated to be ∼ 2.5 eV, ∼ 1.8 × 10^− 16 cm² and ∼ 1.0 × 10¹⁶ cm^− 3, respectively. DLTS of ZrO₂ dielectrics can be used to examine the threshold voltage shift (?V_th) during the operation of SONOS-type flash memory devices, which employ high-k materials.     

A Method for Automatically Establishing a Mathematical Model of Kinematic Analysis to a Planar Mechanism with a Multiple Joint and Prismatic Pair

A method for automatically establishing a mathematical model of kinematic analysis to a planar mechanism with multiple joint and prismatic pair is presented.The breadth(or depth) first search spanning tree can be obtained based on an adjacency matrix of the mechanism.Then the kinematic chain(or mechanism)’s basic loops can be obtained.On the basis of these basic loops,a mathematical model of kinematic analysis can be established and solved automatically.In the sense of a calculative mechanism,structural analysis of the kinematic chain relates to the kinematic analysis of a mechanism.Thus,an effective way is supplied to the given mechanism’s kinematic analysis for automatic modeling and solving,and a method is supplied to the structural type to optimize kinematic synthesis.     

Ultrasensitive aptamer-based multiplexed electrochemical detection by coupling distinguishable signal tags with catalytic recycling of DNase I

This work reports an aptamer-based, disposable, and multiplexed sensing platform for simultaneous electrochemical determination of small molecules, employing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and cocaine as the model target analytes. The multiplexed sensing strategy is based on target-induced release of distinguishable redox tag-conjugated aptamers from a magnetic graphene platform. The electronic signal of the aptasensors could be further amplified by coupling DNase I with catalytic recycling of self-produced reactants. The assay was based on the change in the current at the various peak potentials in the presence of the corresponding signal tags. Experimental results revealed that the multiplexed electrochemical aptasensor enabled the simultaneous monitoring of ATP and cocaine in a single run with wide working ranges and low detection limits (LODs: 0.1 pM for ATP and 1.5 pM for cocaine). This concept offers promise for rapid, simple, and cost-effective analysis of biological samples.
