A Fiber for Electrons: The First Waveguide for Charged Particles in Vacuum
Electrons are key to modern technology, but guiding them over long distances remains challenging. We present the first vacuum-based electron waveguide utilizing Lagrange points, allowing efficient, extended electron transport. This innovation can revolutionize particle physics and quantum computing.
Self-powered and speed-adjustable sensor for abyssal ocean current measurements based on triboelectric nanogenerators
An ultra-compact deep-sea current sensor utilizing triboelectric nanogenerator technology is developed.Measurements conducted at a depth of 4,531 meters demonstrated that the instrument can accurately measure a wide range of flow velocities,from 0.02 m/s to 6.69 m/s,with the highest sensitivity.
Filling the spectral gap of persistent luminescence
By engineering sub-bandgap donor-acceptor states within a series of single-phase Ca(Sr)ZnOS crystals, the persistent luminescence emission peak can now be quasi-linearly tuned across a broad wavelength range (500–630 nm) as a function of Sr/Ca ratio.
PTMGPT2: An Interpretable Protein Language Model for Enhanced Post-Translational Modification Prediction
PTMGPT2 uses GPT-based architecture and prompt-based fine-tuning to predict post-translational modifications. It outperforms existing methods across 19 PTM types, offering interpretability and mutation analysis. This advances the understanding of protein function and disease research.
