Organic halide perovskites often rely on artificially oriented nanostructures to enhance optical anisotropy due to their in-plane isotropic crystal structure, which results in unnecessary optical losses and fabrication difficulties. Here, we report the large optical anisotropy in two-dimensional perovskite [CH(NH2)2][C(NH2)3]PbI4 crystals. Without specially designing their morphology, we achieved a large photoresponse linear dichroic ratio of 2 and a photoluminescence linear dichroic ratio of 4.7. Furthermore, we identified that the polarization orientation is parallel to the corrugated inorganic layers on every crystal plane by density functional theory calculations. The anisotropy of the ab-plane and ac-plane changes in opposite trend with temperature, suggesting that the perovskite can selectively generate polarized light or unpolarized light from different crystal planes by tuning the temperature. Our studies provide a new platform toward two-dimensional perovskite-based optical polarization devices.Boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) represent a relatively new class of materials that provides alternative electrical and thermal properties to the carbon analogue. The high chemical and thermal stability and large band gap combined with high electrical resistance make BNNTs desirable in several thin-film applications. In this study, stable BNNT and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) particle dispersions have been developed using environmentally friendly advanced oxidation processing (AOP) that can be further modified for electrophoretic deposition (EPD) to produce thin films. The characterization of the dispersions has revealed how the hydroxyl radicals produced in AOP react with BNNT/hBN and contaminant boron nanoparticles (BNPs). https://www.selleckchem.com/products/GDC-0980-RG7422.html While the radicals remove the carbon contaminant present on BNNT/hBN and increase dispersion stability, they also oxidize the BNPs and the boron oxide produced, which, conversely, reduces the dispersion stability. The use of high- or low-powered ultrasonication in combination with the AOP affects the rate of the competing reactions, with low-powered sonication and AOP providing the best combination for producing stable dispersions with high concentrations. BNNT/hBN dispersions were functionalized with polyethyleneimine to facilitate EPD, where films of several micrometer thickness were readily deposited onto stainless steel and glass-fiber fabrics. BNNT/hBN films produced on glass fabrics by EPD exhibited a consistent through-thickness macroporosity that was facilitated by platelet and nanotube stacking. The film macroporosity present on the coated fabrics was suitable for use as separator layers in supercapacitors and provided improved device robustness with a minimal impact on electrochemical performance.Two-dimensional spiral plasmonic structures have emerged as a versatile approach to generate near-field vortex fields with tunable topological charges. We demonstrate here a far-field approach to observe the chiral second-harmonic generation (SHG) at designated visible wavelengths from a single plasmonic vortex metalens. This metalens comprises an Archimedean spiral slit fabricated on atomically flat aluminum epitaxial film, which allows for precise tuning of plasmonic resonances and subsequent transfer of two-dimensional materials on top of the spiral slit. The nonlinear optical measurements show a giant SHG circular dichroism. Furthermore, we have achieved an enhanced chiral SHG conversion efficiency (about an order of magnitude greater than the bare aluminum lens) from monolayer tungsten disulfide (WS2)/aluminum metalens, which is designed at the C-exciton resonance of WS2. Since the C-exciton is not a valley exciton, the enhanced chiral SHG in this hybrid system originates from the plasmonic vortex field-enhanced SHG under the optical spin-orbit interaction.We studied the supramolecular structure between barbituric acid (pyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione, BA) and an amphiphilic melamine derivative at the air/water interface by heterodyne-detected vibrational sum frequency generation (HD-VSFG) spectroscopy. HD-VSFG measurements in situ showed a positive broad band from 2300 to 2950 cm-1. By comparing the experimental results with ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations, we assigned the broad band to the NH stretching modes of BA strongly hydrogen-bonded to the melamine derivative. In addition, we report in situ HD-VSFG spectra of the interfacial supramolecular structure in the CO stretching region. Two CO stretching bands were identified. On the basis of the signs of the C=O bands, we uniquely determined the orientation of BA. The strong hydrogen bonds and the molecular orientations are direct evidence for the supramolecular structure based on complementary hydrogen bonds at the air/water interface.The intermediate-range (1-4 nm) correlation of cations, anions, and water in aqueous alkaline earth salt solutions is measured using synchrotron X-ray diffraction. We differentiate from the entire solution structure factor, SX(Q), a separate region at low Q ( less then 1.5 Å-1) containing local diffraction maxima (prepeaks) that indicate nanometer-scale oscillatory behavior. These features are quantitatively reproduced with classical molecular dynamics simulations. At high concentrations, the prepeaks emerge from correlations arising from the existence of small quasi close-packed lattice-like structures comprised of cation hydration spheres. We also analyze the concentration dependence of the prepeak and discuss the overall results in light of the rich literature dealing with intermediate-range correlations underlying universal phenomena in concentrated electrolytes.A Think-Tank Meeting was convened by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) to solicit experts' opinion on the development and application of multi-omic single-cell analyses, and especially single-cell proteomics, to improve the development of a new generation of biomarkers for cancer risk, early detection, diagnosis, prognosis as well as to discuss the discovery of new targets for prevention and therapy. It is anticipated that such markers and targets will be based on cellular, subcellular, molecular and functional aberrations within the lesion and within individual cells. Single-cell proteomic data will be essential for the establishment of new tools that with searchable and scalable features that include spatial and temporal cartographies of premalignant and malignant lesions. Challenges and potential solutions that were discussed included • The best way/s to analyze single-cells from fresh and preserved tissue • Detection and analysis of secreted molecules and from single cells, especially from a tissue slice • Detection of new, previously undocumented cell type/s in the premalignant and early stage cancer tissue microenvironment • Multi-omic integration of data to support and inform proteomic measurements • Subcellular organelles - identifying abnormal structure, function, distribution and location within individual premalignant and malignant cells • How to improve the dynamic range of single-cell proteomic measurements for discovery of differentially expressed proteins and their post translational modifications (PTM) • The depth of coverage measured concurrently using single-cell techniques • Quantitation - absolute or semiquantitative? • Single methodology or multiplexed combinations? • Application of analytical methods for identification of biologically significant subsets • Data visualization of N-dimensional datasets • How to construct intercellular signaling networks in individual cells within premalignant tumor microenvironments (TME) • Associations between intrinsic cellular processes and extrinsic stimuli • How to predict cellular responses to stress inducing stimuli • Identification of new markers for prediction of progression from precursor, benign and localized lesions to invasive cancer, based on spatial and temporal changes within individual cells • Identification of new targets for immunoprevention or immunotherapy - identification of neoantigens and surfactome of individual cells within a lesion.
