827 V) comparable to Pt/C (0.818 V). Impressively, the Co0.7Fe0.3@NC21-800 Zn-air battery delivered a higher open circuit voltage of 1.449 V, large power density of 85.7 mW cm-2, and outstanding charge-discharge cycling stability compared with the commercial RuO2 + 20 wt% Pt/C catalyst. This work provides new ideas for the structural design of electrocatalysts and energy conversion systems.A series of five mononuclear β-diketonate-Dy(iii) complexes, with formulas Dy(ntfa)3(Br-bpy) (1), Dy(ntfa)3(Br2-bpy) (2), Dy(ntfa)3(5,5-(CH3)2-bpy) (3), Dy(ntfa)3(4,4-((CH3)3)2-bpy) (4) and Dy(ntfa)3(4,4-(CH3)2-bpy) (5) (ntfa = 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(2-naphthyl)-1,3-butanedione, Br-bpy = 5-bromo-2,2'-bipyridine, Br2-bpy = 4,4'-dibromo-2,2'-bipyridine, 5,5-(CH3)2-bpy = 5,5'-di-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine, 4,4-((CH3)3)2-bpy = 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine, and 4,4-(CH3)2-bpy = 4,4'-di-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine), have been prepared by altering the capping N-donor coligands. Dy(iii) ions in all complexes possess N2O6 octa-coordinated environments, displaying a distorted square antiprismatic D4d symmetry in complexes 1-4, as well as a triangular dodecahedron D2d symmetry in 5. Magnetic investigations evidence the SIM behavior in the five complexes with the energy barriers (Ueff) of 104.19 K (1), 122.93 K (2), 84.20 K (3), 64.16 K (4) and 80.23 K (5) under zero applied dc field. The potential QTM effects in the title complexes are successfully suppressed in the presence of the extra applied fields. The crystal field parameters and orientations of the magnetic easy axes were obtained from the simulation of the magnetic data and the electrostatic model calculation. The distinct electronic effects originating from the subtle changes of the substituents on the capping N-donor coligands induce varying coordination microenvironments and geometries on the Dy(iii) sites, further drastically impacting the overall magnetic properties of the title complexes. The disparities of the uniaxial anisotropy and the magnetic dynamics for 1-5 have been elucidated by ab initio calculations as well.The structural evolutions and electronic properties of AulPtm (l + m ≤ 10) clusters are investigated by using the first-principles methods. We use the inverse design of materials using the multi-objective differential evolution (IM2ODE) package to globally search the equilibrium structures and investigate the evolving trend from a two-dimensional structure to a three-dimensional structure on horizontal extension and vertical extension for AulPtm (l + m ≤ 10) clusters. The three-dimensional stable geometry of Au8Pt and Au8Pt2 is discovered for the first time in our work. We also notice that the equilibrium structures of AulPtm (l + m = 10 and l ≤ 8) tend to form a tetrahedral geometry and can be obtained by replacing the Au atom in the most stable structure of Aul+1Ptm-1 with the Pt atom, where Pt atoms assemble together and occupy the center of clusters and Au atoms prefer to lie on the vertex or edge position. The average binding energy (Eb) is mostly decided by Pt-Pt bond numbers, namely the numbers of Pt atoms, followed by Au-Pt bond numbers. The second-order energy difference (Δ2Ev and Δ2Eh) and the nearest-neighbor energy difference (Δ4Enn) show that Au6Pt, Au4Pt2, Au3Pt3, Au2Pt4 and AuPt7 clusters exhibit high relative physical stability, so we suggest that these clusters could be defined as the magic number clusters for AulPtm (l + m ≤ 10) clusters. The HOMO-LUMO energy gap (Eg), adiabatic ionization potential (AIP) and the adiabatic electron affinity (AEA) are also investigated to elaborate the relative electronic stability of all the clusters.Neuronal cell microengineering involving micropatterning and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidics enables promising advances in microscale neuron control. However, a facile methodology for the precise and effective manipulation of neurons on a cell-repellent PDMS substrate remains challenging. Herein, a simple and straightforward strategy for neuronal cell patterning and neuronal network construction on PDMS based on microfluidics-assisted modification of functionalized Pluronic is described. The cell patterning process simply involves a one-step microfluidic modification and routine in vitro culture. It is demonstrated that multiple types of neuronal cell arrangements with various spatial profiles can be conveniently produced using this patterning tool. this website The precise control of neuronal cells with high patterning fidelity up to single cell resolution, as well as high adhesion and differentiation, is achieved too. Furthermore, neuronal network construction using the respective cell population and single cell patterning prove to be applicable. This achievement provides a convenient and feasible methodology for engineering neuronal cells on PDMS substrates, which will be useful for applications in many neuron-related microscale analytical research fields, including cell engineering, neurobiology, neuropharmacology, and neuronal sensing.Selective detection of adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) which are less charged molecules than adenosine triphosphate (ATP) or pyrophosphate (PPi) in aqueous solution has been considered challenging because AMP and ADP have relatively low binding affinity for phosphate receptors. In this study, colorimetric discrimination of nucleoside phosphates was achieved based on catalytic signal amplification through the activation of artificial peroxidase. This method showed high selectivity for AMP and ADP over ATP and PPi, unlike previous phosphate sensors that use Zn2+-dipicolylamine-based receptors. High selectivity of the suggested method allowed discrimination of AMP in aqueous solution by the naked eye, and the detection limit was estimated to be 0.5 μM. Mechanism analysis revealed AMP acted as activators in the peroxidation cycle of the Mn2(bpmp)/ABTS/H2O2 system despite having relatively low binding affinity. Additionally, high selectivity and quantitative signal amplification allowed for the development of colorimetric phosphodiesterase and a small molecule kinase assay method. The newly proposed method offers direct, real-time, and quantitative analysis of enzyme activities and inhibition, and is expected to be further applied to high-throughput screening of inhibitors.
