Published: May 2024

AbstractConventional farming practices have negatively impacted micronutrient fertility and overall soil health. Metal lactates are an organic micronutrient amendment that provide both a labile carbon substrate as well as mineral nutrition for plant and microbial growth. To determine the ability of metal lactates to provide readily available micronutrients, Zn, Cu, Mn, Ni, and Co in lactate and chloride salt form were amended to soils and incubated for 28 days. Operationally defined speciation was determined using sequential extraction on samples incubated for 1, 5, or 28 days. The results show a comparable distribution of metals in chloride and lactate form; however, differences were detected in water‐soluble and exchangeable Ni and Zn at each timepoint. For example, in the water exchangeable fraction, there was 2.6%–2.9% less Ni and 0.2%–0.3% less Zn in the metal lactate‐treated soil compared to soil treated with metal chlorides. Furthermore, carbonate‐bound Ni averaged 4.1% and 4% less in metal lactate‐treated soils as compared to metal chloride‐treated soils on days 1 and 5, and Cu decreased 2.9%–3.3% during the treatment period for the lactate‐bound form. Additionally, microbial phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) was performed and found a stimulatory effect of metal lactates on bacterial biomass with an increase of 12%–18% relative to the metal chloride treatment. Results from this study support the use of metal lactates as a sustainable alternative to conventional fertilizers by providing bioavailable micronutrients for plant nutrition in addition to a labile carbon source to support the growth of microbial populations.

AbstractAs one of the main components of solid propellant, ammonium perchlorate (AP) shows slow sluggish decomposition kinetics with unconcentrated heat release. To achieve efficient catalytical decomposition, it is a significant challenge to design reasonable catalyst structure and explore the interaction between catalyst and AP. Herein, a series of porous carbon supported spinel‐typed homogeneous heterometallic composites CuxCo3−xO4/C via pyrolysis of MOF‐74‐Co doped Cu. On basis of precise electronic‐structure‐tuning through modulating Cu/Co ratio in MOF‐74, Cu0.15Co2.85O4/C with 5% Cu‐doping featuring oxygen vacancy concentration of 26.25% exhibits the decrease to 261.5 °C with heat release up to 1222.1 J g−1 (456.9 °C and 669.2 J g−1 for pure AP). The detail process of AP accelerated decomposition is approved by TG‐DSC‐FTIR‐MS technique. Density functional theory calculation revealed that in the Cu0.15Co2.85O4/C, the distinctive ability for NH3 catalyzed oxidation assisted with absorption performance of active porous C boosts accelerating AP decomposition. The findings would provide an insight for perceiving and understanding AP catalytic decomposition.

AbstractPhotodynamic therapy (PDT) is receiving extensive attention as an antimicrobial strategy that does not cause drug resistance by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Herein, hierarchical Ag‐ZnIn2S4 (Ag‐ZIS) core‐shell nanowires are synthesized by in situ Metal‐Organic Framework derived method for efficient PDT of Candida albicans (C. albicans). The core‐shell structure enables spatial synergy strategy to regulate the charge transfer pathway under visible light excitation, in which the Ag nanowires are like the highway for the photogenerated electrons. The enhanced charge carrier separation efficiency greatly increased the chances for the generation of ROS. As expected, the optimized Ag‐ZIS nanowires exhibit excellent performance for inactivation of C. albicans under visible light irradiation (λ ≥ 420 nm, 15 min), and the effective sterilization concentration is as high as 107CFU mL‐1. Moreover, in vivo infection experiments suggested that the PDT effect of Ag‐ZIS nanowires on the mouse wound healing is better than that of the clinical Ketoconazole drug. The PDT antifungal mechanism of Ag‐ZIS nanowires is also investigated, and superoxide anion is found to be the predominant active species to causes C. albicans damage. This work provides a new perspective for designing novel interface structures to regulate charge transfer to achieve efficient PDT antifungal therapy.

AbstractHere, strongly orientation‐dependent lateral photoconductivity of a CdSe monolayer colloidal quantum wells (CQWs) possessing short‐chain ligands is reported. A controlled liquid‐air self‐assembly technique is utilized to deliberately engineer the alignments of CQWs into either face‐down (FO) or edge‐up (EO) orientation on the substrate as opposed to randomly oriented (RO) CQWs prepared by spin‐coating. Adapting planar configuration metal‐semiconductor‐metal (MSM) photodetectors, it is found that lateral conductivity spans ≈2 orders of magnitude depending on the orientation of CQWs in the film in the case of utilizing short ligands. The long native ligands of oleic acid (OA) are exchanged with short‐chain ligands of 2‐ethylhexane‐1‐thiol (EHT) to reduce the inter‐platelet distance, which significantly improved the photoresponsivity from 4.16, 0.58, and 4.79 mA W−1 to 528.7, 6.17, and 94.2 mA W−1, for the MSM devices prepared with RO, FO, and EO, before and after ligands exchange, respectively. Such CQW orientation control profoundly impacts the photodetector performance also in terms of the detection speed (0.061 s/0.074 s for the FO, 0.048 s/0.060 s for the EO compared to 0.10 s/0.16 s for the RO, for the rise and decay time constants, respectively) and the detectivity (1.7 × 1010, 2.3 × 1011, and 7.5 × 1011 Jones for the FO, EO, and RO devices, respectively) which can be further tailored for the desired optoelectronic device applications. Attributed to charge transportation in colloidal films being proportional to the number of hopping steps, these findings indicate that the solution‐processed orientation of CQWs provides the ability to tune the photoconductivity of CQWs with short ligands as another degree of freedom to exploit and engineer their absorptive devices.

AbstractTransition metal compounds (TMCs) have long been potential candidate catalysts in persulfate‐based advanced oxidation process (PS‐AOPs) due to their Fenton‐like catalyze ability for radical generation. However, the mechanism involved in TMCs‐catalyzed nonradical PS‐AOPs remains obscure. Herein, the growth of FeO on the Fe3O4/carbon precursor is regulated by restricted pyrolysis of MIL‐88A template to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for tetracycline (TC) removal. The higher FeO incorporation conferred a 2.6 times higher degradation performance than that catalyzed by Fe3O4 and also a higher interference resistance to anions or natural organic matter. Unexpectedly, the quenching experiment, probe method, and electron paramagnetic resonance quantitatively revealed that the FeO reassigned high nonradical species (1O2 and FeIV═O) generation to replace original radical system created by Fe3O4. Density functional theory calculation interpreted that PMS molecular on strongly‐adsorbed (200) and (220) facets of FeO enjoyed unique polarized electronic reception for surface confinement effect, thus the retained peroxide bond energetically supported the production of 1O2 and FeIV═O. This work promotes the mechanism understanding of TMCs‐induced surface‐catalyzed persulfate activation and enables them better perform catalytic properties in wastewater treatment.

AbstractDue to the chemical stability of graphene, synthesis of carboxylated graphene still remains challenging during the electrochemical exfoliation of graphite. In this work, a spatially confined radical addition reaction which occurs in the sub‐nanometer scaled interlayers of the expanded graphene sheets for the electrochemical synthesis of highly stable carboxylated graphene is reported. Here, formate anions act as both intercalation ions and co‐reactant acid for the confinement of electro‐generated carboxylic radical (●COOH) in the sub‐nanometer scaled interlayers, which facilitates the radical addition reaction on graphene sheets. The controllable carboxylation of graphene is realized by tuning the concentration of formate anions in the electrolyte solution. The high crystallinity of the obtained product indicates the occurrence of spatially confined ●COOH addition reaction between the sub‐nanometer interlayers of expanded graphite. In addition, the carboxylated graphene have been used for water desalination and hydrogen/oxygen reduction reaction. Therefore, this work provides a new method for the in situ preparation of functionalized graphene through the electrolysis and its applications in water desalination and hydrogen/oxygen reduction reactions.
Positional functionalizations of metal–organic frameworks through invasive ligand exchange and additory MOF‐on‐MOF strategies: A review
Authors: Lee Daeyeon , Lee Sangho , Choi Isaac , Kim Min 
Published: May 2024

AbstractMetal–organic frameworks (MOFs) represent a unique class of porous materials with tremendous potential for diverse applications. A key factor contributing to their versatility is their ability to precisely introduce functional groups at specific positions within pores and crystals. This review explores two prominent strategies for achieving the positional functionalization of MOFs: post‐synthetic ligand exchange (PSE) and MOF‐on‐MOF. In PSE, the existing ligands within solid‐state MOFs can be selectively replaced by the desired functional groups in solution through ligand dynamics. This invasive functionalization provides a flexible approach to fine‐tuning the surface of the MOFs with the target functionality. Conversely, MOF‐on‐MOF strategies are additive methodologies involving the controlled growth of one MOF layer onto another. The functionality of the core and shell (or surface) can be independently controlled. This review critically examines the examples, strengths, limitations, and applications of these strategies, emphasizing their significance in advancing the field of MOF functionalization and paving the way for tailored multifunctional materials with precise and specific properties.

ZusammenfassungIn diesem Kapitel werden die Perspektive des Privathaushalts und die Perspektive des Marktes erörtert. Ein:e Verbraucher:in, welche:r innerhalb eines Haushalts zur Bedürfnisbefriedigung wirtschaftet, erledigt dabei Hausarbeit durch Kochen, Putzen, Waschen, tätigt den Abschluss von Verträgen, die Pflege von Einkaufslisten oder eine Finanzplanung. Dabei haben Verbraucher:innen unterschiedliche Praktiken und Bewältigungsstrategien entwickelt, die es in der Verbraucherinformatik zu analysieren gilt. Physische Hausarbeit wird bereits im Smart-Home-Kontext durch intelligente Maschinen (oft Roboter genannt) ausgelagert. Kognitive Hausarbeit im alltäglichen Handeln (bspw. bei Verträgen) kann und wird in Zukunft durch Software wie auch Intermediäre unterstützt werden. Digitale Märkte stellen eine häufige Form der Intermediation dar, die Besonderheiten und Effekten unterliegt, welche das Verbraucherverhalten beeinflussen können. So gewinnen zum Beispiel einige wenige Anbieter mithilfe von Netzwerkeffekten, Skaleneffekten und Lock-in-Effekten zunehmend an Marktdominanz und verdrängen kleinere Anbieter, was zu Quasimonopolen führen kann. Digitale Märkte zeichnen sich zudem durch ihre Vertrauensfunktion in der Internet-Ökonomie aus.

Writing Non-fiction Books on National Culture for Vietnamese Children in the Age of Globalisation: The Process of Building Intercultural Competence
Authors: Dang Thi Phuong Anh , Hà Tú Anh , Phan Quang Anh 
Published: May 2024

AbstractThis paper tracks down the process of writing non-fiction books on national culture for Vietnamese children to help them understand their identity and respect cultural differences in the age of globalisation. By self-reflecting on the writing experience, this essay elucidates the process of building intercultural competence in its relationship with national identity through the case study of “Kể chuyện văn hóa Việt”. The paper provides a discussion among the three authors in the format of an interview with the co-author who also wrote the non-fiction book series that we focus upon. The first part reflects on intercultural competence as a concept, and the second half considers how the book series emerged and put this concept into practice. The research results show that constructing national identity, individual agency, and intercultural competence for children must be transferred naturally from each book’s topic to the flow of the story. In this case, the most striking feature is the main character’s interaction with his family. In addition, the context needs to integrate both global and local elements. The series creates situations in which there is a comparison between the past and the present, between Vietnam and other countries. It helps readers engage in different worldviews and address diversity by examining their community and nation, thus becoming more tolerant of others. This paper suggests guidance for creating similar books and helps the audience understand the author’s journey to create a trade book series featuring culture-related content.

Published: May 2024

AbstractWith 43 legal religious organizations and an estimated 26.5 million religious adherents, Vietnam has had a very diversified religious landscape. After the Renovation (Đổi Mới), the Vietnam government’s policy of socializing education has encouraged religious groups to participate in the national education. Our chapter outlines this policy before focusing on the contributions of certain religious organizations to developing national education. Then, our research identifies significant challenges faced by religious organizations in the field of national education, as well as the critical advantages they could have had to compete in this area. Toward the end of the chapter, we recommend that religious topics be included in the curriculum for all public schools.
Languages and Ethnic Minority Students’ Access to Education in Vietnam: Problems Turned into Opportunities from the Perspective of Translanguaging
Authors: Nguyen Chinh Duc , Tran Thanh Nguyen Thao 
Published: May 2024

AbstractCompared to students of the ethnic majority (the Kinh), minority students have a lower level of educational attainment. Language barriers have been widely accepted as a cause for this disparity. That is, ethnic minority students encounter schooling difficulties due to their disadvantages in Vietnamese, the national language and also the language of the ethnic majority in Vietnam. This chapter reports part of the findings of a project that explored schooling opportunities for ethnic minority students in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. Specifically, the chapter highlights the findings related to language difficulties experienced by students of two ethnic minorities in two highland provinces (Gia Lai and Dak Lak). Data were collected from informal talks/interviews with educational/school leaders, teachers, and parents in local villages. The findings show that a low level of Vietnamese was perceived as the major challenge to the ethnic minority students’ schooling opportunities. In addition, students were discouraged to capitalize on their indigenous languages to facilitate their learning and engagement in the classroom. The chapter begins with an overview of educational inequalities between ethnic majority and minority students in Vietnam. Next, we focus on language barriers experienced by ethnic minority students by reviewing relevant studies. The findings and discussion will be the central section of this chapter. Based on the literature and our research findings, we suggest a solution to the perceived problems. That is, policy and practice of education for ethnic minority students need to be innovated in accordance with translanguaging, which posits ethnic minority students’ language resources should be seen as strengths rather than challenges.

Holographic complexity of the extended Schwarzschild-de Sitter space
Authors: Aguilar-Gutierrez Sergio E. , Baiguera Stefano , Zenoni Nicolò 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
According to static patch holography, de Sitter space admits a unitary quantum description in terms of a dual theory living on the stretched horizon, that is a timelike surface close to the cosmological horizon. In this manuscript, we compute several holographic complexity conjectures in a periodic extension of the Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole. We consider multiple configurations of the stretched horizons to which geometric objects are anchored. The holographic complexity proposals admit a hyperfast growth when the gravitational observables only lie in the cosmological patch, except for a class of complexity=anything observables that admit a linear growth. All the complexity conjectures present a linear increase when restricted to the black hole patch, similar to the AdS case. When both the black hole and the cosmological regions are probed, codimension-zero proposals are time-independent, while codimension-one proposals can have non-trivial evolution with linear increase at late times. As a byproduct of our analysis, we find that codimension-one spacelike surfaces are highly constrained in Schwarzschild-de Sitter space. Therefore, different locations of the stretched horizon give rise to different behaviours of the complexity conjectures.
Gauge origami and quiver W-algebras
Authors: Kimura Taro , Noshita Go 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
We explore the quantum algebraic formalism of the gauge origami system in ℂ4, where D2/D4/D6/D8-branes are present. We demonstrate that the contour integral formulas have free field interpretations, leading to the operator formalism of qq-characters associated with each D-brane. The qq-characters of D2 and D4-branes correspond to screening charges and generators of the affine quiver W-algebra, respectively. On the other hand, the qq-characters of D6 and D8-branes represent novel types of qq-characters, where monomial terms are characterized by plane partitions and solid partitions. The composition of these qq-characters yields the instanton partition functions of the gauge origami system, eventually establishing the BPS/CFT correspondence.Additionally, we demonstrate that the fusion of qq-characters of D-branes in lower dimensions results in higher-dimensional D-brane qq-characters. We also investigate quadratic relations among these qq-characters. Furthermore, we explore the relationship with the representations, q-characters, and the Bethe ansatz equations of the quantum toroidal $$ {\mathfrak{gl}}_1 $$

. This connection provides insights into the Bethe/Gauge correspondence of the gauge origami system from both gauge-theoretic and quantum-algebraic perspectives.We finally present conjectures regarding generalizations to general toric Calabi-Yau four-folds. These generalizations imply the existence of an extensive class of qq-characters, which we call BPS qq-characters. These BPS qq-characters offer a new systematic approach to derive a broader range of BPS/CFT correspondence and Bethe/Gauge correspondence.
