Big Data Sentiment Analysis of Twitter Data
Authors: Ali Ahmed Hussein , Harish Kumar  , Ping Jack Soh
Published: December 2022

The term "big data" is becoming increasingly common these days. The amount of data generated is directly proportional to the amount of time spent on social media each day. The majority of users consider Twitter to be one of the most popular social networking platforms. The rise of social media has sparked an incredible amount of curiosity among those who use the internet nowadays. The information collected from these social networking sites may be put to a variety of uses, including forecasting, marketing, and the study of user sentiment. Twitter is a social media platform that is commonly used for making remarks in the form of brief status updates. A sentiment analysis may be performed on some or all of the millions of tweets that are received each year. Managing such a massive volume of unstructured data, on the other hand, is a laborious effort to do. To effectively manage large amounts of data, the analytics tools and models that are now on the market are insufficiently equipped and positioned. For this reason, it is essential to make use of a cloud storage solution for the applications of this kind. As a result, we have used Hadoop for the intelligent analysis as well as the storing of large amounts of data. In this article, we offer a system that does sentiment analysis on tweets using the Cloud.

Authors: Zainab Ali Abbood  , Ismael Khaleel  , Karan Aggarwal
Published: December 2022

Recent use of computer systems and the Internet has contributed to severe protection, privacy and confidentiality problems due to the processes involved in the electronic data transformation. Much has been done to improve the security and privacy of information systems, but these issues remain in computer systems; there is, in fact, no system in the world That is early stable. Furthermore, various network attacks develop when the signature database incorporates a new signature with irregular behaviour. With many types of attacks emerging, many techniques are being built and used in many forms of network attacks. Intrusion detection systems ( IDS) are one of those methods. This method allows the management of several network networks, cloud storage and an information system. The IDS can track and detect attacks to breach a system's security features (confidentiality, availability, and integrity). This research aims at classifying IDS based on their intended goal and to compare different types of IDS in each class.
Theoretical Background of steganography
Authors: Shams N. Abdul-wahab  , Mostafa Abdulghafoor Mohammed  , Omar A. Hammood
Published: December 2022

Steganography is a form of encryption which has been used since the days of ancient Greece. It is a method of hiding information within other data. For instance, you may have a company logo in your email, and if someone intercepted the emails being sent, they would see only the innocuous image data. But if they could get access to the same file on your hard drive, they would realise that it contains a message. Steganography deals with hiding the secret information in the cover medium with as minimum distortion as possible. Three types of hiding; text hiding, speech hiding, and encrypted text hiding in coded images are presented in this paper. Also, the challenges and future directions are presented

Authors: Del Moral Pérez M. Esther , Neira Piñeiro M. Rosario , Castañeda Fernández Jonathan , López-Bouzas Nerea
Published: December 2022

Esta investigación se deriva de un proyecto de innovación implementado en el Grado de Maestro en Educación Infantil de la Universidad de Oviedo (España), que combina la metodología STEAM y la cultura maker, a través del diseño de Entornos Literarios Inmersivos (ELI) con Realidad Aumentada (RA). Concretamente, los participantes (N=162) diseñaron entornos físicos, enriquecidos con RA, recreando el universo ficcional de obras de literatura infantil, complementados con una guía didáctica. Los objetivos de este estudio son: evaluar las competencias didácticas, digital, socio-colaborativa y creativa de los participantes, plasmadas en los ELI y determinar la relación entre la competencia digital y las otras competencias implicadas. Se emplea el instrumento validado COMPASS-AR, integrado por 30 indicadores (α=0,977). Los resultados muestran un nivel alto en las competencias didáctica, socio-colaborativa y creativa, y si bien el dominio de las herramientas tecnológicas es alto, la competencia digital alcanza un nivel medio-alto debido a la limitada integración de recursos de elaboración propia. Existe una alta correlación entre todas las competencias implicadas en el diseño del ELI, especialmente entre la digital y la creativa. Esta estrecha relación entre competencias subraya el carácter integrador de la propuesta para su desarrollo conjunto, y evidencia la necesidad de estimular la creatividad de los futuros maestros y el dominio de tecnologías emergentes para elaborar recursos originales adaptados al contexto educativo. En conclusión, estos proyectos son de sumo interés para la formación didáctico-tecnológica del profesorado, al hacer converger metodologías innovadoras como la STEAM y la cultura maker.

Published: December 2022

En los últimos años se han producido cambios en la educación superior debidos a la adaptación al Espacio Europeo de Educación superior y la digitalización implicando una evidente necesidad de adecuar al nuevo contexto las metodologías docentes. De acuerdo con esta idea, la presente investigación se centra en profundizar en el análisis de las metodologías docentes que hacen uso de las tecnologías digitales en la etapa de educación superior. Para ello se ha realizado una revisión sistemática de la literatura en cuatro bases de datos siguiendo la metodología PRISMA. El proceso se inició con 107 documentos y tras el proceso de filtrado se analizaron 23. Los resultados indican que en los últimos años se ha producido un aumento de publicación sobre el tema y que las opciones metodológicas a las que más se recurren son, por ejemplo, el trabajo en grupo, el aprendizaje basado en problemas y los exámenes. En este sentido, la mayoría de las propuestas que se realizan implican un uso de las tecnologías digitales sustitutivo por parte de los docentes y un componente de uso creativo por parte de los estudiantes. En definitiva, es evidente que esta es una temática de interés y en la que es imprescindible profundizar para conocer qué prácticas se están realizando con la intención de conocer los precedentes que pueden ser de utilidad para seguir mejorando los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje.

A circular zone of attachment to the extracellular matrix provides directionality to the motility of Toxoplasma gondii in 3D
Authors: Stadler Rachel V , Nelson Shane R , Warshaw David M , Ward Gary E
Published: December 2022

Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan parasite that infects 30–40% of the world’s population. Infections are typically subclinical but can be severe and, in some cases, life threatening. Central to the virulence of T. gondii is an unusual form of substrate-dependent motility that enables the parasite to invade cells of its host and to disseminate throughout the body. A hetero-oligomeric complex of proteins that functions in motility has been characterized, but how these proteins work together to drive forward motion of the parasite remains controversial. A key piece of information needed to understand the underlying mechanism(s) is the directionality of the forces that a moving parasite exerts on the external environment. The linear motor model of motility, which has dominated the field for the past two decades, predicts continuous anterior-to-posterior force generation along the length of the parasite. We show here using three-dimensional traction force mapping that the predominant forces exerted by a moving parasite are instead periodic and directed in toward the parasite at a fixed circular location within the extracellular matrix. These highly localized forces, which are generated by the parasite pulling on the matrix, create a visible constriction in the parasite’s plasma membrane. We propose that the ring of inward-directed force corresponds to a circumferential attachment zone between the parasite and the matrix, through which the parasite propels itself to move forward. The combined data suggest a closer connection between the mechanisms underlying parasite motility and host cell invasion than previously recognized. In parasites lacking the major surface adhesin, TgMIC2, neither the inward-directed forces nor the constriction of the parasite membrane are observed. The trajectories of the TgMIC2-deficient parasites are less straight than those of wild-type parasites, suggesting that the annular zone of TgMIC2-mediated attachment to the extracellular matrix normally constrains the directional options available to the parasite as it migrates through its surrounding environment.
Classification ofCurcuma longaandCurcuma zanthorrhizausing transfer learning
Authors: Pratondo Agus , Elfahmi Elfahmi , Novianty Astri
Published: December 2022

Curcuma longa(turmeric) andCurcuma zanthorrhiza(temulawak) are members of theZingiberaceaefamily that contain curcuminoids, essential oils, starch, protein, fat, cellulose, and minerals. The nutritional content proportion of turmeric is different from temulawak which implies differences in economic value. However, only a few people who understand herbal plants, can identify the difference between them. This study aims to build a model that can distinguish between the two species ofZingiberaceaebased on the image captured from a mobile phone camera. A collection of images consisting of both types of rhizomes are used to build a model through a learning process using transfer learning, specifically pre-trained VGG-19 and Inception V3 with ImageNet weight. Experimental results show that the accuracy rates of the models to classify the rhizomes are 92.43% and 94.29%, consecutively. These achievements are quite promising to be used in various practical use.

We examined the distribution patterns of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera functional feeding groups (EPT FFGs) in five streams that drain semi-urban landscapes in the Tsitsa River catchment, Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. We undertook macroinvertebrate and physicochemical analysis over four seasons between 2016 and 2017 at eight sites in three land-use categories (Sites 1, 2 and 3), representing an increasing gradient of semi-urban pollution. Five EPT FFGs (shredders, grazers/scrapers, predators, collector-gatherers and collector-filterers) were fuzzy coded and analyzed using RLQ-R (environmental characteristics of samples), L (taxa distribution across samples) and Q (species traits) and fourth-corner analyses. Physicochemical variables, including phosphate-phosphorus, total inorganic nitrogen and temperature, were the most influential variables that significantly influenced the distribution patterns of EPT FFGs in the Tsitsa River. RLQ and the fourth-corner model revealed varying responses of FFGs to semi-urban pollution. Of the five FFGs, collectors were the most abundant EPT FFGs in the study area, exhibiting disparate responses to disturbances, with collector-gatherers associated with impacted sites and significantly associated with phosphate-phosphorus. On the other hand, collector-filterers decreased with increasing semi-urban disturbance and exhibited a significant negative association with phosphate-phosphorus, total inorganic nitrogen and temperature. Overall, this study provides further insights into the environmental factors that influence the distribution patterns of FFGs in Afrotropical streams and the potential use of FFGs as indicators of anthropogenic pollution in tropical streams and rivers.
Clues to the Presence of an Assyrian Administration in the Mahidasht Plain, Kermanshah, Iran
Authors: Alibaigi Sajjad , MacGinnis John
Published: December 2022

Large sculpted circular door sockets are a characteristic feature of Neo-Assyrian monumental architecture and have been found in palaces, temples, and admin- istrative centers both at core imperial sites such as Khorsabad and Nimrud and at provincial capitals such as Till-Barsib, Arslan-Tash, and Ziyaret Tepe. In the case of Iran, although the Assyrians controlled significant parts of the country, especially in the eighth century Bce, research into their presence in that period has until now been very limited. Even so, there is one such door socket known from Iran, namely from the excavations at Tapeh Giyan, the discovery of which helped confirm the existence of an Assyrian administrative center at the site. This in turn led Julian Reade to suggest that Giyan was the location of the capital of the Assyr- ian province of Kharkhar. We can now add to the debate new discoveries from the site of Quwakh Tapeh in Kuzaran, in the northern Mahidasht plain, where a carved door socket and fragments of other carved stones scattered across the mound attest to the existence of a building of major importance. In this study we present this socket and compare it with other relevant material in order to determine its date, establish its archaeological context, and consider the implications.

Effect of Intravenous Fluid and Local Anaesthetic Warming on Core Temperature Following Subarachnoid Block for Caesarean Section
Authors: Aguwe E. O. , Fyneface-Ogan S. , Johnson U. U. , Obasuyi B. I.
Published: December 2022

Background: Hypothermia and shivering often complicate spinal anaesthesia for Caesarean section, and has necessitated the search for an effective and affordable warming method for parturient.

Aim: To compare the effects of intravenous fluid and local anaesthetic warming on core temperature during Caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia.

Methods: One hundred and sixteen consenting parturients aged 18 to 40 years with ASA physical status class II scheduled for elective Caesarean section were recruited into the study. Patients were randomly allocated into groups I, II, III and IV. All the patients were preloaded with 15 ml/kg of normal saline over 15 minutes before institution of subarachnoid block in the sitting position. Warm intravenous fluid and warm intrathecal bupivacaine, warm intravenous fluid and intrathecal bupivacaine at room temperature, intravenous fluid at room temperature and warm intrathecal bupivacaine, and both intravenous fluid and intrathecal bupivacaine at room temperature were administered to patients in groups I, II, III, IV respectively. Data collected included core temperature (tympanic membrane) using a thermoscan, shivering using the 5-point scale of Wrench. Neonatal rectal temperature was measured and adverse effects observed on the parturients recorded. Monitoring of core temperature was continued in the post anaesthesia care unit until full recovery and discharge.

Results: All the 116 patients completed the study. While core temperature change was highest (-0.43 ± 0.30) in group IV and lowest in group I (-0.07 ± 0.58), it was -0.16 ± 0.09 in group II and -0.24 ± 0.16 in group III, p=0.001. Hypothermia was observed in group IV, with an incidence of 10.3%. Group IV also had the highest incidence of shivering (31%), followed by group III (10.3%) and group II (6.9%) while group I had zero incidence of shivering. The neonatal temperature was similar across the study groups. Vomiting was recorded in one patient in groups III (3.4%) and IV (3.4%). Bradycardia occurred in two patients in groups III (6.9%) and one patient in group IV (3.4%). Hypotension was observed in two patients in group III (6.9%) and one patient in group IV (3.4%).

Conclusion: Warming of intravenous fluid and intrathecal bupivacaine reduced maternal temperature change during Caesarean section under subarachnoid block, but there was no significant difference in the incidence of shivering between the combination of warm intravenous fluid and warm intrathecal bupivacaine, and warm intravenous fluid alone.

Published: December 2022

This research examines the correlation between the Native-Speaking Foreign Language Teachers' Professional Competencies, Teaching Methods, and Attitude Towards Learning in the Foreign Language Learning Quality in a Cooperation Education Unit or Satuan Pendidikan Kerjasama (SPK) in Surabaya. This quantitative research involved 144 students from the fourth, fifth, and sixth grades as the respondents or research participants. The data of this research were analyzed using the Partial Least Square (PLS) on SmartPLS 3.0 application. The results show that the Native-Speaking Foreign Language Teachers' Professional Competencies significantly influenced Teaching Methods. Furthermore, Teaching methods significantly influenced the Attitude Towards Learning, while the Attitude Towards Learning significantly influenced Foreign Language Learning Quality. Teaching Methods have also proven to be a mediator in the influence of Attitude Towards Learning (VAF=0,1965 or 19,65%). Based on the research findings, schools and teachers need to emphasize the professional competencies of native-speaking foreign language teachers and teaching methods to improve the quality of foreign language learning.
Impact of Store Atmosphere on Customer Loyalty through Perceived Quality and Satisfaction: An Evidence from Boutique Industry in Tarakan
Authors: . Marso , Idris Rafiq
Published: December 2022

The increasingly competitive retail industry demands the ability of retailers to use appropriate marketing strategies to build customer loyalty and dominate the targeted market. This research aims to examine the relationship between strategic variables and the influence of these variables on the loyalty of boutique customers in Tarakan City. The research model tests the direct effect of store atmosphere on perceived quality, direct and indirect effects of store atmosphere on satisfaction, direct and indirect effects of store atmosphere on loyalty, direct effects of perceived quality on satisfaction, the direct effect and indirect effect of perceived quality on loyalty, and the direct effect of satisfaction on customer loyalty. One hundred seventy-six (176) respondents were used as samples and drawn by the accidental sampling method. The test results with SmartPLS show that this study's measurement model meets the convergent and discriminant validity. The results of the path analysis indicated that the nine hypotheses study are supported by the data. The store atmosphere positively affects perceived quality, customer satisfaction, and customer loyalty. The perceived quality has a positive effect on satisfaction, and loyalty. Furthermore, satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on loyalty. The role of perceived quality mediates the effect of store atmosphere on satisfaction, and satisfaction mediates the impact of store atmosphere on loyalty. The results of this study also reveal that the effect of store atmosphere on loyalty is not mediated by service quality. Thus, the results of this study are one of the empirical evidence that contributes to the development of customer loyalty theory and is useful as a basis for developing marketing strategies to increase boutique customer loyalty.

The anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome ubiquitylates histone H2B on the promoter during UbcH10 transactivation
Authors: Chakraborty Puja , Paul Ratnadip , Chowdhury Abhishek , Mukherjee Nayonika , Nath Somsubhra , Roychoudhury Susanta
Published: December 2022

Among various post‐translational modifications of histones, ubiquitylation plays a crucial role in transcription regulation. Histone mono‐ubiquitylation by RING finger motif‐containing ubiquitin ligases is documented in this respect. The RING finger ligases primarily regulate the cell cycle, where the anaphase‐promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) takes charge as mitotic ubiquitin machinery. Reportedly, APC/C participates in transcriptional activation of the ubiquitin carrier protein UbcH10. However, the ubiquitylation activity of APC/C on the UBCH10 promoter remains elusive. This study shows that APC/C, with its adapter protein Cdc20, catalyses mono‐ubiquitylation of Lysine‐120 in histone 2B on the UBCH10 promoter. This study also identified a cell‐cycle‐specific pattern of this modification. Finally, APC/C‐driven crosstalk of acetylation and ubiquitylation was found operational on UBCH10 trans‐regulation. Together, these findings suggest a role for APC/C catalysed promoter ubiquitylation in managing transcription of cell cycle regulatory genes.

Interviewer Effects in Surveys
Authors: West Brady T.
Published: December 2022

Human interviewers are an essential component of survey data collection. When properly trained, motivated, monitored, and encouraged, interviewers can provide tremendous benefits to research studies both large and small. However, interviewers can also have a negative effect on the quality of the data collected, introducing bias in and/or inflating the variance of survey estimates, and survey managers need to take steps to ensure that these detrimental effects do not emerge. This article introduces the concept of interviewer effects in surveys, including strategies for measuring such effects and designing surveys that will minimize these effects. Considering the Total Survey Error framework, the article discusses the different ways that human interviewers administering surveys in‐person, over the phone, or via live video can affect the quality of the survey data collected. Readers of the article will gain an important and well‐rounded understanding of interviewer effects in survey research, including practical and modern techniques for the measurement and reduction of these effects.
Catecholate Complexes of p‐Block Elements: Redox Activity
Authors: Maskey Rezisha , Greb Lutz
Published: December 2022

The chemistry of catecholate ligands at d‐block metals, particularly the ligand‐redox noninnocence happening in such complexes, is well established and has been summarized several times. Analog complexes with p‐block central elements have also been intensively studied, but these aspects have rarely been presented collectively. The present article describes the chemistry of p‐block elements substituted with catecholates or redox isomeric states (semiquinone and quinone), focusing on the redox activity within such assemblies. Representative examples spanning from group 13 to group 16 and covering the early beginnings till more recent developments are discussed, with corresponding aspects of magnetic properties and electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Due to the usually significant energetic difference between p‐block element‐located orbitals and ligand‐located orbitals, the occurrence of redox noninnocence or aspects such as valence tautomerism is much less numerous as in the related d‐block metal chemistry. However, as transpires, the heavier p‐block elements with more pronounced redox flexibility are more prone to participate in redox processes alongside ligand‐centered redox events. Although p‐block elements with redox‐active ligands still constitute a somewhat patchy field of research, the overview given in this article might offer a feeling for promising developments that are still to be developed.

Published: December 2022

Facial examiners make visual comparisons of face images to establish the identities of persons in police investigations. This study utilised eye‐tracking and an individual differences approach to investigate whether these experts exhibit specialist viewing behaviours during identification, by comparing facial examiners with forensic fingerprint analysts and untrained novices across three tasks. These comprised of face matching under unlimited (Experiment 1) and time‐restricted viewing (Experiment 2), and with a feature‐comparison protocol derived from examiner casework procedures (Experiment 3). Facial examiners exhibited individual differences in facial comparison accuracy and did not consistently outperform fingerprint analysts and novices. Their behaviour was also marked by similarities to the comparison groups in terms of how faces were viewed, as evidenced from eye movements, and how faces were perceived, based on the made feature judgements and identification decisions. These findings further understanding of how facial comparisons are performed and clarify the nature of examiner expertise.

Herein, an ultrafast lubricant self‐mediating (self‐replenishing/‐absorbing) photothermal slippery surface is designed that achieves sustainable transport of droplet under the irradiation of near infrared light (NIL) even if the lubricant layer is wiped clean completely, as well as at other man‐made extreme conditions. The ultrafast lubricant self‐mediating performance is caused by synergistic effects of interconnection of porous structure and photothermal expansion of the material. When lubricant on surface is lost, photothermal expansion of material can quickly squeeze the lubricant inside the base to flow into and out of the interconnected porous structure to generate a fresh lubricant layer. Attractively, when the NIL is turned off, the rebuilt lubricant layer can be swiftly self‐absorbed into the porous to inhibit unnecessary wastage. Moreover, an arbitrary split of droplet in desired configurations can be achieved by controlling the NIL irradiating route. This sustainable droplet manipulation induced by ultrafast lubricant self‐mediating can be extensively applied in microfluidics and micro‐reactor settings.

To investigate the impact of early HBV DNA suppression after receiving entecavir (ETV) on treatment response in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. A total of 140 baseline HBV DNA‐matched HBeAg‐positive patients receiving ETV were enrolled. Of those 70 patients achieved early virological response at week 24 (VR24 group) and the remaining 70 patients failed to achieve VR24 (non‐VR24 group). Factors of serological and virological outcomes were analyzed. Patients with pretherapy alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels over five times upper limit of normal had a higher HBeAg seroclearance rate (P = .038). The VR24 group had the higher ratio of HBeAg seroclearance and maintained viral suppression within 96 and 144 weeks, respectively (53% and 75%, respectively). The cumulative rates of virological breakthrough (VBT) in the VR24 group and non‐VR24 group were 0% and 5.71%, 3.2% and 11.83%, 3.2% and 17.24%, 3.2% and 17.24%, and 3.2% and 21.84% from week 48 to 240, every 48 weeks, respectively (P = .006). In the multivariate analysis, undetectable HBV DNA and age at week 24 were associated with VBT (P = .02 and .006, respectively). Pretherapy ALT levels predicted a higher probability of HBeAg seroclearance. VR24 could be associated with HBeAg seroclearance and maintained viral suppression during therapy. Detectable HBV DNA at week 24 and older age could be predictive factors with an occurrence of VBT in HBeAg‐positive CHB patients treated with ETV.

Published: December 2022

A novel surface plasmonic waveguide structure composed of chiral medium and 2D material is proposed. The universal direction‐dependent dispersion relation is obtained, which covers the combinations between 2D materials with in‐plane isotropy or anisotropy and the surroundings with or without chirality. The tunability of the behavior of surface plasmon polaritons with the chirality of environment and the doping level are investigated. The averaging effect of chirality in both sides of 2D material is unveiled. Besides, the transverse spin of SPPs in the Chiral‐2D material structure is explored and the asymmetric distribution of the transverse spin depends mainly on the contribution from the magnetic spin instead of the electric spin. These features are advantageous for the manufacture of novel photonic devices and the development of sensors techniques for the chiral environment.

Published: December 2022

A new route to obtain a large figure of merit (>1) is reported, for the first time, by considering a one‐dimensional quasiperiodic lattice where an electron can hop beyond usual nearest‐neighbor sites. A finite positional correlation is imposed among the constituent lattice sites, following the well‐known Aubry‐André‐Harper (AAH) form. In the presence of second‐neighbor hopping, the AAH lattice exhibits energy dependent mobility edge which plays the central role for efficient energy conversion. Employing a tight‐binding framework, all the thermoelectric quantities are computed based on the standard nonequilibrium Green's function formalism. The analysis can be utilized to investigate thermoelectric phenomena in similar kinds of other aperiodic systems possessing higher order electron hopping.

The functional versatility and flexibility of multifunctional metasurfaces are of great significance for the application of electromagnetic (EM) metasurfaces in military stealth, holographic imaging, base station antennas, and other fields. Nevertheless, the functions of active programmable coding multifunctional metasurfaces are mostly reflective or transmissive, and the research on active multifunctional metasurfaces with transmission and reflection integration is still in its infancy. Here, a transmission reflection integrated active programmable coding metasurface is proposed to manipulate the transmission and reflection of different polarized electromagnetic waves independently in real time. As a proof of concept, a metasurface that can implement diverse programmable functionalities is designed. Numerical and experimental results indicate that the strategy has excellent performance in beam control and polarization conversion, which provides tremendous potential for extending highly integrated multifunctional devices.

Published: December 2022

The charging process of a quantum battery (i.e., a two‐level system) is studied in two scenarios, that is, a quantum battery and a charger are coupled to the common reservoir environments or coupled to their respective independent environments. In the common reservoir scenario, it is shown that the optimal charging process can be realized by increasing the number of environments and setting the same coupling strength between battery‐reservoirs and charger‐reservoirs. In the independent reservoir scenario, however, it is shown that decreasing either the number of reservoir environments or the coupling strength would enhance the charging performance. These results demonstrate that the charging performance of quantum batteries can be significantly improved by constructing common environments. This may be of help to the realization of the quantum battery with optimal charging performance in multiple environments.
Interstitial‐Electron‐Induced Topological Molecular Crystals

Published: December 2022

Topological phases are usually unreachable in molecular solids, which are characterized by weakly dispersed energy bands with a large gap, in contrast to topological materials. In this work, however, it is proposed that nontrivial electronic topology may ubiquitously emerge in a class of molecular crystals that contain interstitial electronic states, the bands of which are prone to be inverted with those of molecular orbitals. Guidelines are provided to hunt for such interstitial‐electron‐induced topological molecular crystals, especially in the topological insulating state. They exhibit a variety of exceptional qualities, as brought about by the intrinsic interplay of molecular crystals, interstitial electrons, and topological nature: 1) They may host cleavable surfaces along multiple orientations, with pronounced topological boundary states free from dangling bonds. 2) Strong response to moderate mechanical perturbations, whereby topological phase transition would occur under relatively low pressure. 3) Inherent high‐efficiency thermoelectricity as jointly contributed by the non‐parabolic band structure (therewith high thermopower), highly mobile interstitial electrons (high electrical conductivity), and soft phonons (small lattice thermal conductivity). 4) Ultralow work function owing to the active interstitial electrons. First‐principles calculations are utilized to demonstrate these properties with the representative candidate K4Ba2[SnBi4]. This work suggests a pathway of realizing topological phases in bulk molecular systems, which may advance the interdisciplinary research between topological and molecular materials.

Published: December 2022

Key Points

Randomized clinical trials have previously demonstrated drug‐coated balloon (DCB) treatment of femoropopliteal disease reduces the odds of clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD‐TLR) by 60%–70% at 2–3 years compared to balloon angioplasty alone.

The single‐arm IN.PACT Global Study demonstrates clinical outcomes observed at 2 years tend to remain durably stable through 5 years of follow‐up.

Approximately three‐quarters of patients undergoing DCB treatment of relatively complex femoropopliteal disease had freedom from CD‐TLR at 5 years.
Dimension of heterogeneous network architecture formed in emulsion cross‐linking copolymerization
Authors: Tobita Hidetaka
Published: December 2022

The mean‐square radius of gyration Rg2 and the graph diameter D of highly heterogeneous network polymers formed in emulsion vinyl/divinyl copolymerization are investigated to find a linear relationship, Rg2 = a D. The proportionality coefficient, a, is dominated by the cycle (circuit) rank, kc, or the number of intramolecular cross‐links. The magnitude of a is slightly larger than that for the random cross‐linked network polymers, but the functional form of a (kc) is simply proportional to that for the random networks proposed earlier. This relationship makes it possible to determine Rg2 based on D and kc, enabling quick estimation of Rg2 for large network polymers. It is found that the contraction factor g of the present heterogeneous network polymer is larger than that for the homogeneous networks formed through random cross‐linking of polymer chains. The ratio of these two contraction factors is kept constant, irrespective of the magnitude of kc.
