For instance, the β-site amyloid precursor protein cleavage enzyme, BACE1, which is a major therapeutic target of treating Alzheimer’s disease, functions within a narrow pH region around 4.5. In addition, the sodium-proton antiporter NhaA from <i>Escherichia coli</i> is activated only when the cytoplasmic pH is higher than 6.5 and the activity reaches the maximal around pH 8.8. To explore the molecular mechanism of a protein regulated by pH, it’s of importance to measure, typically by NMR, the binding affinities of protons to ionizable key residues, namely pK_a’s, which determine the deprotonation equilibria under a pH condition. However, web-lab experiments are often expensive and time consuming. In some cases, due to the structural complexity of a protein, pK_a measurements become difficult, making theoretical pK_a predictions in a try lab more advantageous.In the past thirty years, many efforts had been made for accurate and fast protein pK_a predictions with physics-based methods. Theoretically, constant pH molecular dynamics (CpHMD) methods that take conformational fluctuations into account give the most accurate predictions, especially the explicit-solvent CpHMD model proposed by Huang and coworkers (<i>J. Chem. Theory Comput.</i> 2016, 12, 5411-5421) which in principle is applicable to any system that a force field can describe. However, lengthy molecular simulations are usually necessary for extensive sampling in conformation. In particular, the computational complexity increases significantly if water molecules are included explicitly in the simulation systems. Thus, CpHMD is not suitable for high-throughout computing requested in industry. To accelerate pK_a prediction, Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) or empirical equation-based schemes, such as H++ and PropKa, have been developed and widely applied where pK_a’s are obtained via one-structure calculations. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) is applied to the area of protein pK_a prediction, which leads to the development of DeepKa by Huang lab (<i>ACS Omega</i> 2021, 6, 34823-34831), the first AI-driven pK_a predictor. In this paper, we review the advances in protein pK_a prediction contributed mainly by CpHMD methods, PB or empirical equation-based schemes, and AI models. Notably, the modeling hypotheses explained in the review would shed light on future developments of more powerful protein pK_a predictors.","PeriodicalId":10252,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135495729","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are two wind measurement methods: Fourier series method (FSM) and popular Fourier transform method (FTM). However, the wind measurement accuracy of FTM is greatly influenced by window function, and the calculation amount is relatively complicated. The Four-point algorithm (FPA) for DASH’ s wind measurement is proposed in this paper. The contents of wind measurement principle, forward modeling, noise and inversion by the FSM, FTM and FPA are wholly compared and researched. The three wind measurement methods are all derived from the phase difference transformation of DASH Fizeau interference fringes. The Fizeau interference fringes with wind speed of 0-100m/s at the interval of 10m/s is simulated, and the forward wind speed is obtained by FSM, FTM and FPA, and the corresponding wind measurement errors are 2.93%, 4.67% and 3.00%,respectively. After artificially adding Gaussian noise with a mean value of 0 and a standard deviation of 0.1, FSM, FTM and FPA are used to forward the Fizeau interference fringes after flat field, and the corresponding relative errors are 2.30%, 11.66% and 2.27% respectively. After artificially adding Gaussian noise, the Fizeau interference fringes of wind speeds of 31-39m/s with 1m/s interval and 30.1-30.9m/s with 0.1m/s interval are simulated, and the forward wind speeds are obtained by FSM and FPA. In both cases, the wind measurement errors of FSM are 3.55% and 4.15% higher than those of FPA. The O(¹S)557.7nm airglow at peak altitude of 98 km was photographed by our GBAII (Ground based airglow imaging interferometer)-DASH, and the imaging interferograms with zenith angles of 0 ° and 45 ° were obtained. Then by the methods of Fourier series, Fourier transform and FPA were used to obtain the inversion wind speed of 32.21m/s, 43.55m/s and 32.17m/s, respectively.

However, due to the characteristics of pulse power technology, the gas spark switch is easy to cause ablation on the electrode surface during use, and the metal particles generated by ablation will significantly affect the stability and reliability of the switch. This paper first simulated the discharge process of the three-electrode gas spark switch under atmospheric pressure nitrogen environment. In this model, the ionization coefficient near the trigger electrode is modified to compensate for the shortcomings of the local field approximation, and the relevant mathematical derivation process is given. The formation of the initial electron is described by the field electron emission phenomenon, and the development process of electron collapse into the streamer is obtained. The physical mechanism of switch on is investigated, and the development process of each stage of switch discharge is described in detail. Then, the discharge process of the switch is studied when there is metal particle near the trigger. The study shows that the presence of metal particles enhances the electric field near the trigger and accelerates the formation of the initial electron cloud. In addition, in the presence of metal particles, the metal particles and the trigger will first break down, forming a high-density plasma channel after the breakdown, and becoming the source of the subsequent flow development. At the same time, because the metal particles on the channel have an obstructing effect on the streamer development, the streamer generates a discharge branch after contact with metal particle. In the end, this paper discusses the influence of metal particles of different shapes and sizes on the discharge process. The results show that metal particle with sharp shapes has stronger electric field distortion near it, when the electric field intensity is large enough, it may cause field emission on the surface of metal particle. And it also make clearly that the size of metal particle is small, the obstruction to the development path of streamer is small, the streamer quickly converge behind the particles.","PeriodicalId":10252,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136201920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dielectrophoretic effect refers to the phenomenon that free dielectric molecules will be polarized and moved by the force in a non-uniform electric field, thus deforming the dielectric liquid. In the dielectrophoretic liquid lens, only two insulating liquid materials with large refractive index difference and dielectric constant difference need to be selected, which can increase the selection range of liquid materials. The liquid lens structure mainly consists of a piece of double-sided conductive flat plate ITO glass with a circular hole and two pieces of single-sided conductive flat plate ITO glass, which respectively form two sets of flat electrode structures to control the upper and lower interfaces of the liquid droplet. In this structure, the influence of the intermediate glass plate on the focus and imaging is reduced by using the flat plate electrode with circular hole. The theoretical analysis of the structure is carried out with simulation software. Firstly, the models of the biconvex liquid lens with circular hole plate electrode under different voltages are built with Comsol software, the data of upper and lower interfaces of the liquid droplet are exported. Then by using Matlab, the surface shapes of the upper and lower interfaces of the droplet are fitted and the corresponding aspheric coefficients are obtained. Finally, the optical models are built with Zemax software, the imaging optical paths and the variation range of focal length under different voltages are analyzed. On the basis of the simulation, the corresponding device is manufactured, and the specific experimental analysis is carried out. The surface pattern of the upper and lower interfaces of the droplet of the biconvex liquid lens under different voltages are recorded, the focal length and imaging resolution of the liquid lens are measured. When the operating voltage is 0V-260V, the focal length varies from 23.8mm to 17.5mm, which is basically consistent with the simulation results(22.6mm-15.9mm). The feasibility of the structure of the biconvex liquid lens with circular hole plate electrode structure is verified by experiments. The imaging resolution can reach 45.255 lp/mm. The results show that this proposed novel three-layer liquid structure of the biconvex liquid lens has the characteristics of simple structure, easy to realize and good imaging quality. Therefore, the research of this biconvex liquid lens can provide a new idea for expanding the high-resolution imaging research of liquid lenses and their applications.","PeriodicalId":10252,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136202316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to its short residence time, it is difficult to capture a transition state via experimental techniques. Characterizing transition states for a conformational change therefore is only achievable via physics-driven molecular dynamics simulations. However, unlike chemical reactions which involve only a small number of atoms, conformational changes of biomolecules depend on numerous atoms and therefore their coordinates in our 3D space. The searching of transition states for them will inevitably encounter the curse of dimensionality, i.e. the reaction coordinate problem, which invoked the invention of various algorithms for solution. Recent years have witnessed a rapid emergence of new machine learning techniques and the incorporation of some of them into the transition state searching methods. Here, we first review the design principle of representative transition state searching algorithms, including the collective-variable(CV)-dependent Gentlest Ascent Dynamics (GAD), Finite Temperature String, Fast Tomographic, Travelling-salesman based Automated Path Searching (TAPS) and the CV-independent Transition Path Sampling (TPS). Then, we focus on the new version of TPS that incorporates reinforcement learning for efficient sampling and clarify the suitable situation for its application. Finally, we propose a new paradigm for transition state searching-invent new dimensionality reduction techniques that preserve transition state information and combine them with GAD.","PeriodicalId":10252,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136202321","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The average displacement of ions was solved by the modified Mott-Gurney equation. Then, the relation between the average displacement and the growth length of the conductive filament was obtained by a geometric model based on cells. The applied voltage versus Forming/Set time equation and the length of the conductive filament growth versus time equation have been deduced by using this relation. This article proposed also an algorithm for extracting kinetic parameters of ions in bipolar ECM devices. By using this algorithm, the characteristics of the applied voltage versus Forming/Set time for Ag/γ-AgI/Pt, Ag/TiO₂/Pt, Ag/GeS₂/W, and Cu/SiO₂/Au devices were calculated and the calculative results were consistent with experimental data. We found that in the Forming/Set process, the jump step of silver ions is the lattice constant along c direction of a unit cell of the crystal for TiO₂ and the jump step is equal to the lattice constant of the cubic, a, for γ-AgI. These results are explained as followings. In a unit cell of the two crystals there are some tetrahedral and octahedral interstitial sites. The cationic motion paths consist of alternating octahedral and tetrahedral sites or some octahedral sites. The cations jump from tetrahedron to octahedron to tetrahedron etc. in the γ-AgI with coplanar polyhedron and octahedron to octahedron in the TiO₂ with edge shared octahedron. In GeS₂ crystal, we have found that the jump step of silver ions was the lattice constant in the c direction of a unit cell. Due to the periodicity of the lattice, the pathway of the ion motion in the three materials can be expressed by a periodic potential barrier. There had been calculated for the jump situation of the copper ion in amorphous SiO₂, the jump step of copper ions was 1.57 times of the length of the O-O bond, and the jump pathway could be also explained by a periodic potential barrier. By introducing the cosine potential barrier, the ionic activation frequency, potential barrier height, ionic mobility &amp; diffusion coefficient, and characteristics of the conductive filament growth versus time in several devices were calculated. The criteria of selecting dielectric materials for bipolar ECM devices was discussed by using these data. It was found that the standard for selecting dielectric materials of bipolar ECM devices is the ion activation energy ≤ 0.5eV, preferably between 0.1-0.2eV, and the DC conductivity as close as possible to 10^‒4 (Ω cm)^‒1.","PeriodicalId":10252,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136202511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the high energy density and low cost, Li-rich Mn-based layered oxides(LRLO) have been a promising candidate cathode for next-generation Li-ion batteries. The anionic redox reaction(ARR) in LRLO destabilizes the lattice oxygen, leading to voltage degradation and capacity loss.

The droplet in the dielectric electrophoretic liquid lens is polarized in the electric field and move towards the direction of higher electric field intensity under the action of the dielectrophoretic forces. With the change of applied voltage, the dielectrophoretic forces are also changed, thus the contact angle of the droplet at the liquid-liquid interface is changed. Firstly, the models of aspherical double-liquid lenses under different voltages are established with Comsol software, and the data of interfacial profile are derived. Then using Matlab software, the derived interface surface data are fitted by polynomial, and the aspherical coefficients are obtained. Finally, the optical models are built with Zemax software, the variation range of focal length and RMS radius of aspherical double-liquid lens under different voltages are analyzed. In order to further research the characteristics of aspherical double-liquid lens, it is compared with spherical double-liquid lens model.
