2-0.3 eV and ∼10%, respectively, as compared to 0.3-0.6 eV and ∼20% for a typical pure hybrid. In comparing intensities, state mixing can complicate matters, and techniques to avoid this issue are discussed. Furthermore, the influence of basis sets in high-level ab initio calculations is investigated, showing that reasonably accurate results are obtained with the use of 6-311++G**. We name this benchmark suite as XABOOM (X-ray absorption benchmark of organic molecules) and provide molecular structures and ground-state self-consistent field energies and spectroscopic data. We believe that it provides a good assessment of electronic structure theory methods for calculating X-ray absorption spectra and will become useful for future developments in this field.Metasurface-based holography presents opportunities for applications that include optical displays, data storage, and optical encryption. selleck inhibitor Holograms that control polarization are sometimes referred to as vectorial holograms. Most studies on this topic have concerned devices that display different images when illuminated with different polarization states. Fewer studies have demonstrated holographic images whose polarization varies spatially, i.e., as a function of the position within the image. Here, we experimentally demonstrate a vectorial hologram that produces an image with a spatially continuous distribution of polarization states, for the first time to our knowledge. An unlimited number of polarization states can be achieved within the image. Furthermore, the holographic image and its polarization map (polarization vs position in image) are independent. The same image can be thus encoded with different polarization maps. As far as we know, our approach is conceptually new. We anticipate that it could broaden the application scope of metasurface holography.In nature, many plants have evolved various wettability surfaces to survive and thrive in diverse environments. For example, the superhydrophobic surface of lotus can keep itself clean, while the rose petals can retain droplets for a long time. The former is referred to the "lotus effect," and the latter is known as the "rose petal effect." This research proposes a method to fabricate magnetic-responsive superhydrophobic magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) which could reversibly and instantly transition their surface wetting state between the "lotus effect" and the "rose petal effect." These surfaces with controllable wettability could find applications in the manipulation of liquids in biological and chemical systems. The MREs are cured by applying a uniform magnetic field to form "mountain-like" microstructures on their surfaces. This initial surface is rough and exhibits the lotus leaf effect. Because of the nonuniform magnetically induced deformation, the surface micromorphology and roughness can be altered by an applied magnetic field. The state of water droplets on its surface is changed from the Wenzel state to the Cassie-Baxter (CB) state. Therefore, the proposed MRE surface could switch their dynamic wetting features between the "rose petals" and "lotus leaves" via a magnetic field. An experimental platform for the wetting features of MRE surfaces is established to characterize the dynamic behaviors of water drops on MREs under a magnetic field. A magneto-mechanic coupled model is proposed to interpret how the magnetic field influences the MRE surface as well as the droplet movement.Renal fibrosis is the final manifestation of various chronic kidney diseases. Interstitial myofibroblasts, which are reported to highly express integrin αvβ3, are the effector cells in renal fibrogenesis. Since current therapies do not efficiently target these cells, there is no effective therapeutic method for preventing or mitigating the disease. Here, we modified sterically stable PEGylated liposomes with the pentapeptide cRGDfC (RGD-Lip), which has a high affinity for αvβ3, to specifically deliver drug to renal interstitial myofibroblasts. Our results showed that attaching cRGDfC to liposomes significantly increased their uptake by activated renal fibroblasts NRK-49F cells, and this effect was greatly abolished by adding excess-free cRGDfC or a knockdown of αvβ3. Systemic administration of RGD-Lip gave rise to significant accumulation in a fibrotic kidney, which is ascribed to the specific recognition with integrin αvβ3 on interstitial myofibroblasts. When loaded with celastrol, RGD-guided liposomes dramatically depressed the proliferation and activation of NRK-49F cells in vitro. Additionally, celastrol-loaded RGD-Lip markedly attenuated renal fibrosis, injury, and inflammation induced by unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) in mice, without inducing significant systemic toxicity. Thus, this liposomal system shows great promise for delivering therapeutic agents to interstitial myofibroblasts for renal fibrosis treatment with minimal side effects.Planar all-dielectric photonic crystals or metasurfaces host various resonant eigenmodes including leaky guided mode resonances (GMR) and bound states in the continuum (BIC). Engineering these resonant modes can provide new opportunities for diverse applications. Particularly, electrical control of the resonances will boost development of the applications by making them tunable. Here, we experimentally demonstrate nano-electromechanical tuning of both the GMR and the quasi-BIC modes in the telecom wavelength range. With electrostatic forces induced by a few volts, the devices achieve spectral shifts over 5 nm, absolute intensity modulation over 40%, and modulation speed exceeding 10 kHz. We also show that the interference between two resonances enables the enhancement of the phase response when two modes are overlapped in spectrum. A phase shift of 144° is experimentally observed with a bias of 4 V. Our work suggests a direct route toward optical modulators through the engineering of GMRs and quasi-BIC resonances.This work reports gold-catalyzed 1,4-oxofunctionalizations of 3-en-1-ynamides with nitrones, yielding two distinct E-configured products. We obtained 1,4-oxoarylation products from 3-en-1-ynamides bearing C(4)-electron-donating substituents and 1,4-oxoamination products from those analogues bearing C(4)-aryl substituents. We propose that if vinylgold carbenes are stable, imines undergo a para-arylation on these gold carbenes. If vinylgold carbenes are highly electron-deficient, this N-attack is irreversible to enable 1,4-oxoaminations.
