Arginine-modified black phosphorus quantum dots with dual excited states for enhanced electrochemiluminescence in bioanalysis
Ju’s group found a dual excited states-mediated electrochemiluminescence (ECL) mechanism from both the S1 and T1 species with black phosphorus quantum dots (BPQDs) as a nanoemitter, and proposed a strategy to modulate the excited states via arginine modification to enhance the ECL efficiency.
Optoelectronic oscillator solves combinatorial optimization problems
We proposed to use an optoelectronic oscillator to solve combinatorial optimization problems. This new machine can achieve computation acceleration by utilizing the convergence property of the physical system.
