On the impact of competing intra- and intermolecular triplet-state quenching on photobleaching and photoswitching kinetics of organic fluorophores
摘要： While buffer cocktails remain the most commonly used method for photostabilization and photoswitching of fluorescent markers, intramolecular triplet-state quenchers emerge as an alternative strategy to impart fluorophores with 'self-healing' or even functional properties such as photoswitching. In this contribution, we evaluated combinations of both approaches and show that inter- and intramolecular triplet-state quenching processes compete with each other. We find that although the rate of triplet-state quenching is additive, the photostability is limited by the faster pathway. Often intramolecular processes dominate the photophysical situation for combinations of covalently-linked and solution-based photostabilizers and photoswitching agents. Furthermore we show that intramolecular photostabilizers can protect fluorophores from reversible off-switching events caused by solution-additives, which was previously misinterpreted as photobleaching. Our studies also provide practical guidance for usage of photostabilizer–dye conjugates for STORM-type super-resolution microscopy permitting the exploitation of their improved photophysics for increased spatio-temporal resolution. Finally, we provide evidence that the biochemical environment, e.g., proximity of aromatic amino-acids such as tryptophan, reduces the photostabilization efficiency of commonly used buffer cocktails. Not only have our results important implications for a deeper mechanistic understanding of self-healing dyes, but they will provide a general framework to select label positions for optimal and reproducible photostability or photoswitching kinetics in different biochemical environments.

摘要： Self-organizing network (SON) mechanisms reduce operational expenditure in cellular networks while enhancing the offered quality of service. Within a SON, self-healing aims to autonomously solve problems in the radio access network and to minimize their impact on the user. Self-healing comprises automatic fault detection, root cause analysis, fault compensation, and recovery. This paper presents a root cause analysis system based on fuzzy logic. A genetic algorithm is proposed for learning the rule base. The proposed method is adapted to the way of reasoning of troubleshooting experts, which ease knowledge acquisition and system output interpretation. Results show that the obtained results are comparable or even better than those obtained when the troubleshooting experts define the rules, with the clear benefit of not requiring the experts to define the system. In addition, the system is robust, since fine tuning of its parameters is not mandatory.

Electricity-triggered Self-healing of Conductive and Thermostable Vitrimer Enabled by Paving Aligned Carbon Nanotubes
摘要： Electrically conducting films are important for the development of modern electronics. However, most of these conducting films become susceptible to structure fractures under the complex deformations or accidental damages, causing the devices to fail to work. Inspired by the self-healing capability of creatures, we developed a self-healing, thermostable, and electrically conducting film that can be healed by electricity by paving aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) sheets onto the surface of liquid-crystal elastomer composite films. The aligned CNT sheets make the composites conductive, so the composites can be healed not only by light, but also by electricity after breaking. The scratches on the self-healing film can be healed easily under a voltage of 1.18 V/mm because of the electro-thermal effect of aligned CNT sheets. The healed film has almost the same mechanical properties compared to the pristine sample. The electrical and mechanical self-heal of the film is derived from the electrical reconnection of carbon nanotubes and transesterification-induced topology change of the network, respectively. We further demonstrated soft actuators and high-performance supercapacitors based on the prepared self-healing conducting films. This method for preparing self-healing conducting films enables the development of self-healing electronics.

摘要： This letter presents a novel cell outage detection algorithm based on incoming handovers statistics. The main advantage of the proposed algorithm is that it uses neighbor measurements that allow to detect outage in two cases. First, when the cell in outage is able to report performance indicators; second, when these indicators are not available because the base station is affected. To evaluate the proposed algorithm and compare it with other approaches, a set of tests has been carried out using an LTE simulator and in a live LTE network.

Conjugated Organic Cations Enable Efficient Self-Healing FASnI3 Solar Cells
摘要： The introduction of large-volume amines (LVAs) in Sn-based perovskite films has been shown to lead to promising power conversion efficiency (PCE) in Pb-free perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, the LVAs adopted so far (e.g., phenylethylammonium [PEA] and butylammonium [BA]) are insulating and could impede charge extraction within the perovskite film. Herein, a conjugated LVA, 3-phenyl-2-propen-1-amine (PPA), is introduced in formamidinium tin iodide (FASnI3) perovskite. Our results show that the incorporation of PPA results in enlarged grain sizes, reduced trap density, preferential orientation, efficient charge extraction, and enhanced structural stability of FASnI3 film. These positive effects help in achieving efficient PSCs with a PCE as high as 9.61% with negligible hysteresis and outstanding stability (remains 92% of its initial PCE value after 1,440 h). Furthermore, the presence of PPA enables a self-healing action of PSCs. Most importantly, we report large-area (1 × 1 cm2) Sn-based PSCs achieving PCE of 7.08%.

Controlled Design of a Robust Hierarchically Porous and Hollow Carbon Fiber Textile for High‐Performance Freestanding Electrodes
摘要： It is difficult to simultaneously get high mechanical strength and high self-healing efficiency within a short healing time for self-healing polyacrylate coatings reported so far. Herein, derived from multi-maleimide terminated hyperbranched polysiloxane, linear polyacrylate with furan-containing side chain and polydopamine particles (photothermal conversion agent), a new kind of polyacrylate coating (HPA) with a strong and flexible crosslinking network was developed, which simultaneously shows high mechanical strength and high self-healing efficiency within a short time. With 0.3 wt% polydopamine particles in HPA, the resulting coating (HPA3) has the highest toughness (2.63±0.10 MPa) with 12.9±0.7 MPa of tensile strength and 23.9±1.6% of elongation at break; what’s more, the self-healing efficiency of HPA3 is over 87.6% after only 2.5 min near-infrared laser irradiation, overcoming intractable problems in developing self-healing polyacrylate coatings. The study on the mechanism behind these outstanding performances of HPA system reveals that the reversible covalent crosslinking formed by multi-maleimide terminated hyperbranched polysiloxane is the necessary and crucial factor for simultaneously getting high mechanical strength and high self-healing efficiency at short time.

摘要： Self-healing networks aim to detect cells with service degradation, identify the fault cause of their problem, and execute compensation and repair actions. The development of this type of automatic system presents several challenges to be confronted. The first challenge is the scarce number of historically reported faults, which greatly complicates the evaluation of novel self-healing techniques. For this reason, in this paper, a system model to simulate faults in Long-Term Evolution (LTE) networks, along with their most significant key performance indicators, is proposed. Second, the expert knowledge required to build a self-healing system is usually not documented. Therefore, in this paper, a methodology to extract this information from a collection of reported cases is proposed. Finally, following the proposed methodology, an automatic fuzzy-logic-based system for fault identification in LTE networks is designed. Evaluation results show that the fuzzy system provides fault identification with a high success rate.
