To break through the bottle-neck of quantum yield in upconversion （UC） core-shell system, we elucidated that the energy transfer efficiency in core-shell system had an evident contribution from the charge transfer of interface with related to two factors：（i） band offsets and （2） binding energy area density. These two variables were determined by material intrinsic properties and core-shell thickness ratio. We further unraveled the mechanism of non-radiative energy transfer by charge transfer induced dipole at the inter- face, based on a quasi-classical derivation from F6rster type resonant energy transfer （FRET） model. With stable bonding across the interface, the contributions on energy transfer in both radiative and non-radiative energy transfer should also be accounted together in Auzel＇s energy transfer （ETU） model in core-shell system. Based on the discussion about interface bonding, band offsets, and forma- tion energies, we figured out the significance of interface bonding induced gap states （IBIGS） that played a significant role for influ- encing the charge transfer and radiative type energy transfer. The interface band offsets were a key factor in dominating the non-radiative energy transfer, which was also correlated to core-shell thickness ratio. We found that the energy area density with re- lated to core/shell thickness ratio followed the trend of Boltzman sigmoidal growth function. By the physical trend, this work contrib- uted a reference how the multi-layered core-shell structure was formed starting from the very beginning within minimum size. A route was paved towards a systematic study of the interface to unveil the energy transfer mechanism in core-shell systems.

压实带是一种典型的应变局部化现象,影响储层流体的封存、输运以及地下岩体的稳定性。多孔灰岩局部化变形的相关研究一直是难点,不像砂岩样品可以通过明显的声发射信号特征来分析与表征压实带的形成与演化规律。本文利用动态CT技术,实时监测灰岩局部化变形到宏观失稳的演化过程,重点描述压实带形成初期的局部化变形特征,涵盖了应变量>5%的变形部分特征。在灰岩变形过程中可以识别两处明显非弹性变形阶段:即初始大孔隙坍塌阶段和后续压实带形成过程,利用图像体积互相关技术定量表征压实带的演化特征,精细化描述压实带形成过程的微观破裂特征,系统分析离散压实带内的连通孔隙分布规律,发现连通孔隙与局部化变形有紧密联系,并基于CT扫描的孔隙网络数据,利用纳维斯特斯方程计算绝对渗透率,以渗透率为参考指标,研究局部化变形引起的损伤程度。

Rheumatoid arthritis(RA)is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by cartilage and bone damage with the presence of pannus formation which causes uncontrollable proliferation and invasion of fibroblast-like synoviocytes(FLS).Since rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic disorder,the patients normally need to undergo prolonged antirheumatic treatment with the use of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs(DMARDs),steroids,and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs).The efficacy of such long-term pharmaceutical intervention can be significantly affected by the development of drug *** pathological relationship between rheumatoid arthritis and cancer hinted that some chemotherapeutic drugs,such as methotrexate(MTX),could be used for RA *** idea was reinforced by the analysis of mutations in p53 tumor suppressor *** 50%of p53 somatic mutations observed from various cancers are also identified in the synovium of RA patients1(Fig.1A).Of note,the hyperplastic synovium in RA with overexpressed p53 mutants contributed to the destruction of joints in patients with erosive RA.
