We report a straightforward strategy to design efficient N doped porous carbon (NPC) electrocatalyst that has high concentration of easily accessible active sites for the CO2 reduction reaction (CO2 RR). The NPC with large amounts (pyridinic and graphitic N) highly structure is prepared by using an oxygen-rich metal-organic framework (Zn-MOF-74) precursor. amount species can be tuned optimizing calcination temperature time. Owing pore sizes, are well exposed electrolyte RR. exhibits superior...
Children's health and behaviour are essential for their development it is important to obtain abundant accurate information understand young people's behaviour. The Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study among the first large-scale international surveys on adolescent through self-report questionnaires. So far, more than 40 countries Europe North America have been involved HBSC study. purpose of this assess test-retest reliability selected items Chinese version survey...
Recovery of spent graphite (SG) anode has been largely overlooked and undervalued due to the difficult regeneration process relative low price compared valuable elements in cathode. Moreover, lacking feasible low-cost techniques for recovery SG seriously restricts development all-component recycling end-of-life batteries.

Molybdenum oxide (MoO3)-based materials have attracted considerable attention due to their significant applications in catalysis and optoelectronics. However, the introduction of oxygen vacancies into MoO3 under working conditions inevitably results drastic changes properties performance. Therefore, it is imperative comprehend deoxidation process controlled environments. Herein, we reveal mechanisms orthorhombic using an advanced situ transmission electron microscopy technique. We found that...
Understanding the reaction and deactivation mechanism of CO2 photoreduction is critical to carbon-neutral economy. Here, we report a self-poisoning effect in accompanied by C2 production. With phosphorus-doping nitrogen-vacancy engineering, reactivity on carbon nitride can be significantly enhanced with considerable yield C2. Nevertheless, stability this catalyst decreases The originates from rigid bonding between catalysts products, slowing down desorption process poisoning catalysts. This...
Atopic dermatitis (AD), characterized by eczema as a chronic pruritic inflammatory skin disease, has become serious health problem with recurrent clinical episodes.

Abstract. Brown carbon (BrC) is an organic component with noticeable absorption in the ultraviolet and short visible wavelengths, which influences global radiative balance. However, assessing BrC effects remains a challenging task owing to scarcity of direct observations uncertainties regarding their chemical optical properties. This study proposes efficient method for estimating based on available observational data. The light-absorbing properties obtained from aethalometer measurements...

Heterogeneous ice nucleation on atmospheric aerosols strongly affects the earth's climate, and at microscopic level, surface-irregularity-induced crystallization behaviors are common but crucial. Because of lack visual evidence effective experimental methods, mechanism atomic-structure-dependent formation aerosol surfaces is poorly understood. Here we chose highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) to represent soot (a primary aerosol), environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) was...
The stress shielding effect caused by traditional metal implants is circumvented using polyetheretherketone (PEEK), due to its excellent mechanical properties; however, the biologically inert nature of PEEK limits application.

Mechanisms of nucleation have been debated for more than a century, despite successes classical theory. The process has recently argued as involving nonclassical mechanism (the "two-step" mechanism) in which an intermediate step occurs before the formation nascent ordered phase. However, thorough understanding this mechanism, terms both microscopic kinetics and thermodynamics, remains experimentally challenging. Here, situ observations using transmission electron microscopy on solid-state...
Nanotopography can promote osseointegration, but how bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) respond to this physical stimulus is unclear. Here, we found that early exposure of BMMSCs nanotopography (6 h) caused mitochondrial fission rather than fusion, which was necessary for osseointegration. We analyzed the changes in morphology and function located on surfaces NT100 (100 nm nanotubes) ST (smooth) by super-resolution microscopy other techniques. Then, both a significant increase on,...
