Abstract

Based on decoherence-free states, two multi-party semi-quantum private comparison protocols are proposed to counteract collective noises. One could resist the collective-dephasing noise well, whereas the other could resist the collective-rotation noise. Multiple classical participants could compare their secret information by performing the proposed protocols once. It is manifested that the proposed protocols could resist both external attacks and internal attacks. Besides, the operations of our protocols were simulated on the IBM Quantum Experience.

26. Icing and Adhesion Behaviors on Surfaces with Varied Lattice Constants

Abstract

Investigating droplet wetting and icing behavior is crucial for comprehending the principles of surface icing and the design of anti-icing surfaces. In this study, we present the evidence from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations that reveal a hitherto unreported behavior of droplet wetting and icing adhesion on surfaces with lattice constants from 2.7 to 4.5 Å. Here, we observe that the contact angles (CA) of droplets on a face-centered cubic (FCC) lattice surface consistently correlate positively with the lattice constant. Further examination of droplet behavior on an idealized crystal surface reveals that hydrophilic surfaces (e.g., CA = 85°) inhibit freezing more effectively than hydrophobic surfaces (e.g., CA = 97°). This finding contradicts the conventional explanation that hydrophobic surfaces reduce heterogeneous nucleation, thereby delaying icing. This study introduces a mechanistic explanation for the promotion of water icing by hydrophobic surfaces and offers a novel design concept for the development of anti-ice surfaces in future applications.

Abstract

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising antibacterial agents in the fight against multidrug resistant pathogens. However, their application to skin infections is limited by the absence of a realizable topical delivery strategy. Herein, a hybrid hierarchical delivery system for topical delivery of AMPs is accomplished through the incorporation of AMPs into dendritic nanogels (DNGs) and their subsequent embedding into poloxamer gel. The high level of control over the crosslink density and the number of chosen functionalities makes DNGs ideal capsules with tunable loading capacity for DPK-060, a human kininogen-derived AMP. Once embedded into the poloxamer gel, DPK-060 encapsulated in DNGs displays a slower release rate compared to those entrapped directly in the gels. In vitro EpiDerm Skin Irritation Tests show good biocompatibility, while MIC and time-kill curves reveal the potency of the peptide toward Staphylococcus aureus. Anti-infection tests on ex vivo pig skin and in vivo mouse infection models demonstrate that formulations with 0.5% and 1% AMPs significantly inhibit the growth of S. aureus. Similar outcomes are observed for an in vivo mouse surgical site infection model. Importantly, when normalizing the bacteria inhibition to released/free DPK-060 at the wound site, all formulations display superior efficacy compared to DPK-060 in solution., QC 20230626

Abstract

3D printing has shown promise in the development of notable sensing and health detection devices. Nonetheless, challenges remain in the concurrent development of highly durable wearable sensors with low‐friction surfaces. This challenge serves as a limiting factor in the operational lifespans of these sensors. In this study, a magnetically assisted 3D printing technique is developed to fabricate composites reinforced with magnetic Fe3O4@SiO2 nanochains (NCs) with dimensions of 60.2 µm in length (L) and 0.2 µm in diameter (D), indicating an L:D ratio exceeding 300. By applying a vertical magnetic field and extrusion flow field to the sensor's surface layer, the NCs can be arranged differently (together with the printed textures), reducing the coefficient of friction by 27.7% and improving the wear resistance. This approach is inspired by nacre, known for its impressive durability and resilience. A motion monitoring sensor with an extended lifespan is successfully fabricated by using liquid metal ink integrated with an anti‐wear layer. These findings offer significant insights into the evolution of wearable sensors, demonstrating their adaptability to multi‐material printing and resulting in improved performance and service lives.
