Theoretical prediction of the linear isomers for rare gas-carbon disulfide complexes : He-CS2, Ne-CS2, and Ar-CS2 by Zang, Limin, Dai, Wei, Zheng, Limin, Duan, Chuanxi, Lu, Yunpeng, Yang, Minghui

“…Three two-dimensional intermolecular PESs are constructed from ab initio data points which are calculated at the CCSD(T) level with aug-cc-pVTZ basis set supplemented with bond functions. We find that the three PESs have very similar features and each PES can be characterized by a global T-shaped minimum, two equivalent local linear minima, and the saddle points between them. …”

Strain engineering of antimonene by a first-principles study : mechanical and electronic properties by Kripalani, Devesh Raju, Kistanov, Andrey A., Cai, Yongqing, Xue, Ming, Zhou, Kun

“…Interestingly, the application of uniaxial strain in the zigzag and armchair directions unveil direction-dependent trends in the electronic band structure. We find that the nature of the band gap remains insensitive to strain in the zigzag direction, while strain in the armchair direction activates an indirect-direct band gap transition at a critical strain of 4%, owing to a band switching mechanism. …”

Solution-processed highly bright and durable cesium lead halide perovskite light-emitting diodes by Wei, Zhanhua, Perumal, Ajay, Su, Rui, Sushant, Shendre, Xing, Jun, Zhang, Qing, Tan, Swee Tiam, Demir, Hilmi Volkan, Xiong, Qihua

“…The precursor solution is prepared by simply dissolving CsPbBr3 powder and a CsBr additive in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). We find that the CsBr additive not only significantly enhances the PLQY but also induces directional crystal growth into micro-plates, forming a smooth perovskite film for LEDs. …”

Plasmonic-induced overgrowth of amorphous molybdenum sulfide on nanoporous gold : an ambient synthesis method of hybrid nanoparticles with enhanced electrocatalytic activity by Phan-Quang, Gia Chuong, Yang, Zhe, Koh, Charlynn Sher Lin, Sim, Howard Yi Fan, Leong, Shi Xuan, Ling, Xing Yi

“…By tuning the concentration ratio between the precursor and NPG, the amount of MoSx particles deposited can be systematically controlled from 0.5% to 2% of the Mo/(Au + Mo) ratio. Importantly, we find that the hybrid particles exhibit higher bridging and an apical S to terminal S atomic ratio than pure molybdenum sulfide, which gives rise to their enhanced electrocatalytic performance for hydrogen evolution reaction. …”

Minimalistic attacks : how little it takes to fool deep reinforcement learning policies by Qu, Xinghua, Sun, Zhu, Ong, Yew-Soon, Gupta, Abhishek, Wei, Pengfei

“…In Breakout, for example, we surprisingly find that: (i) all policies showcase significant performance degradation by merely modifying 0.01% of the input state, and (ii) the policy trained by DQN is totally deceived by perturbing only 1% frames.…”

Measuring coastal absolute sea-level changes using GNSS interferometric reflectometry by Peng, Dongju, Feng, Lujia, Larson, Kristine M., Hill, Emma Mary

“…Our results show that the accuracy of daily mean sea levels from GNSS-IR is <1.5 cm compared with co-located tide-gauge records, and amplitudes of annual cycle and linear trends estimated from GNSS-IR measurements and tide-gauge data agree within uncertainty. We also find that the de-seasoned and de-trended SSH time series from GNSS-IR and collocated satellite altimetry are highly correlated and the estimated annual amplitudes and linear trends statistically agree well, indicating that GNSS-IR has the potential to monitor coastal absolute sea-level changes and provide valuable information for coastal sea-level and climate studies.…”

Metacognitive bias resulting from trade-off between local and global motion signals by Lee, Alan L. F., Yabuki, Hana, Lee, Isaac C. L., Or, Charles C.-F.

“…Specifically, participants systematically gave higher confidence ratings to an incoherent pattern with clear elements (i.e., strong local but weak global signals) than a coherent pattern with noisy elements (i.e., weak local but strong global signals). We did not find any systematic effects of local/global stimulus features on metacognitive sensitivity. …”

Essential role of lattice oxygen in methanol electrochemical refinery toward formate by Meng, Fanxu, Wu, Qian, Elouarzaki, Kamal, Luo, Songzhu, Sun, Yuanmiao, Dai, Chencheng, Xi, Shibo, Chen, Yubo, Lin, Xinlong, Fang, Mingliang, Wang, Xin, Mandler, Daniel, Xu, Jason Zhichuan

“…Here, using 18O isotope-labeled catalysts, we find that the oxygen atoms in formate generated during the methanol e-refinery reaction can originate from the catalysts' lattice oxygen and the O-2p-band center levels can serve as an effective descriptor to predict the catalytic performance of the catalysts, namely, the formate production rates and Faradaic efficiencies. …”
