Contour Detection Based on Compound Receptive Field

自然场景自动检测目标轮廓是非常困难的。该文提出了一种基于复合感受野的图像轮廓检测仿生模型。在传统的基于抑制模型的基础上引入去抑制机制,在减少背景纹理干扰的同时,保护较弱的轮廓,从而尽量保持轮廓的完整性。实验结果表明,这种仿生模型可以有效地抑制纹理边缘,减少对轮廓的破坏,提高了自然背景中轮廓检测的性能。Contour detection from natural scenes is a tough task in computer vision.This paper proposes a visual model of contour detection based on compound receptive field.By inducing dis-inhibition mechanism to traditional model that was based on inhibition mechanism,inferences are suppressed while weak edges are preserved,so that the integrity of contour is improved.Experiment results show that this approach can suppress edges due to texture,protect object contour and improve the performance of contour detection from nature scene.国家973计划项目(2007CB311005);国家863计划项目(2006AA01Z129);福建省自然科学基金(A0710020);厦门大学985二期信息创新平台项目资助课

一种新型的以天门冬氨酸-苯丙氨酸共聚物为载体的大分子生物相容性材料(AP-EdA-dOTA-gd)被制备出来作为磁共振成像造影剂.首先合成了天门冬氨酸-苯丙氨酸共聚物,之后利用乙二胺将1,4,7,10-四氮杂环十二烷-1,4,7,10-四乙酸(dOTA)连接到共聚物上,最后将钆离子通过配位的作用方式连接到dOTA上,最终得到大分子AP-EdA-dOTA-gd.体外溶血性试验表明AP-EdA-dOTA-gd具有较好的血液相容性.在P H=5.5的组织蛋白酶b的磷酸缓冲液中,AP-EdA-dOTA-gd能够降解.APEdA-dOTA-gd的体外弛豫效率(15.95 MMOl–1·l·S–1)为目前临床应用的gd-dOTA(5.59MMOl–1·l·S–1)的2.9倍.大鼠肝脏成像实验结果表明,AP-EdA-dOTA-gd对于肝组织的成像增强对比度为63.5±6.1%远高于gd-dOTA(24.2±2.9%).A new biocompatible gadolinium(III)-macromolecule(AP-EDA-DOTA-Gd) was developed as a magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) contrast agent.Poly(aspartic acid-cophenylalanine) was synthesized, modified via ethylenediamine, conjugated with 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid(DOTA) and finally chelated gadolinium(III), yielding gadolinium(III)-based macromolecule(AP-EDA-DOTA-Gd).The hemolytic tests showed the hemocompatibility of this gadolinium(III)-based macromolecular conjugate.In vitro, AP-EDA-DOTA-Gd could be degraded, when it was incubated with cathepsin B in phosphate buffered solution(p H = 5.5).The T1-relaxivity(15.95 mmol–1·L·s–1) of AP-EDA-DOTA-Gd was 2.9 times of that(5.59 mmol–1·L·s–1) of the clinical MRI contrast agent(Gd-DOTA) at 1.5 T and 25 ℃.The liver enhancement of AP-EDA-DOTA-Gd was 63.5±6.1% during the maximum enhancement time(50-80 min), which was much better than that of Gd-DOTA(24.2±2.9%, 10-30 min).AP-EDA-DOTA-Gd was expected to be a potential liver MRI contrast agent.TheNationalNaturalScienceFoundationofChina(20975097and21305134

“推进一流本科教育,提高人才培养质量”的理念、路径与方法(笔谈)

建设世界一流大学需要高度重视本科教育。\"推进一流本科教育,提高人才培养质量\"的前提是要理解本科教育的本意,从不同维度反思\"我们需要什么样的本科教育\"\"什么是好的本科教育\"\"如何推进一流本科教育\"等问题。从宏观层面看,本科教育的使命是为了促进每一个大学生\"成才\"和\"成人\"。从现实需求看,一流本科教育不可忽视跨学科人才培养,需要按照学科标准、职业标准和学生标准对专业进行重新分类,为跨学科专业设置、新工科建设以及高校专业设置与调整开辟理论空间。目前,我国本科教育的最大问题是培养目标不明确,面临学术型与应用型的抉择。好的本科教育需要基于本科生\"关键能力\"的培养,彻底消除他们对于专业的陌生感,满足他们对于理智的好奇心,撤除横亘在大学与社会之间的藩篱并激发他们的创新创业精神。具体来说,一流本科教育是一流\"教\"与\"学\"的统一,需要一流的投入和一流的教育管理,需要在教学改革中侧重技术层面的突破。一流本科教育不是一流大学的\"专利\",不是\"一类本科\",没有固定模式,更不能盲目追求学术GDP。对于应用型本科高校而言,在\"一流本科教育\"中要结合学校特点和办学实际,做出异于\"双一流\"建设高校的现实抉择。作为一类特殊性质的高校,中外合作大学在建设一流本科教育的过程中,要在引入国外优质高等教育资源的基础上,强调对相关资源的消化、吸收、融合、创新,从而培养出符合社会主义现代化建设要求的高素质国际化人才。国家社会科学基金教育学一般项目“新时代中国特色高等教育话语体系构建研究”(BIA180200);;教育部国别和区域研究专项资金资助课题“高等学校专业设置规划与质量保障体系研究

In this work, we used an electrochemically-gated, mechanically-controllable break junction technique to tune the electronic behaviour of thiophene-based molecular junctions that show destructive quantum interference (DQI) features. By varying the voltage applied to the electrochemical gate at room temperature, we reached a conductance minimum that provides direct evidence of charge transport controlled by an anti-resonance arising from DQI. Our molecular system enables conductance tuning close to two orders of magnitude within the non-faradaic potential region, which is significantly higher than that achieved with molecules not showing DQI. Our experimental results, interpreted using quantum transport theory, demonstrate that electrochemical gating is a promising strategy for obtaining improved in-situ control over the electrical performance of interference-based molecular devices.This research was supported by the National Key R&D Program of China (2017YFA0204902), National Natural Science Foundation of China (21722305, 21673195, 21503179, 21703188), the Program for Professor of Special Appointment (Eastern Scholar) at Shanghai Institutions of Higher Learning, Natural Science Foundation of Shanghai (17ZR1447100), Science and Technology Commission of Shanghai Municipality (14DZ2261000), China Postdoctoral Science Foundation (2017M622060) for funding work in Xiamen.

Electric-field-induced selective catalysis of single-molecule reaction

随着单分子电学检测技术的迅速发展，分子电子学的研究不再局限于分子电子学器件的构筑及其电学性质的测量，而且扩展到单分子尺度化学反应过程的探索。然而目前相关的研究仍然局限于理论计算方面，在单分子尺度上实时监测和调控化学反应的活性和选择性是化学领域的长期目标和挑战。针对这一挑战，洪文晶教授课题组与程俊教授课题组合作，自主研发了精密科学仪器，将单个有机分子定向连接在两个末端尺寸为原子级的电极之间，解决了化学反应中分子取向控制的问题.理论计算结果证实了定向电场可以有效地稳定化学反应的过渡态，从而降低反应能垒。该研究工作在化学化工学院洪文晶教授、程俊教授、能源材料化学协同创新中心（iChEM）刘俊扬副研究员的共同指导下完成，由硕士研究生黄晓艳、iChEM博士研究生唐淳、博士研究生李洁琼以及兰州大学的陈力川博士作为共同第一作者，化学化工学院师佳副教授、陈招斌高级工程师、夏海平教授和田中群教授，萨本栋微纳研究院杨扬副教授、环境与生态学院白敏冬教授以及兰州大学张浩力教授参与了研究工作的讨论并给予指导，博士后乐家波、博士研究生郑珏婷、张佩（已毕业）、李瑞豪、李晓慧也参与了研究工作。Oriented external electric fields (OEEFs) offer a unique chance to tune catalytic selectivity by orienting the alignment of the electric field along the axis of the activated bond for a specific chemical reaction; however, they remain a key experimental challenge. Here, we experimentally and theoretically investigated the OEEF-induced selective catalysis in a two-step cascade reaction of the Diels-Alder addition followed by an aromatization process. Characterized by the mechanically controllable break junction (MCBJ) technique in the nanogap and confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in bottles, OEEFs are found to selectively catalyze the aromatization reaction by one order of magnitude owing to the alignment of the electric field on the reaction axis. Meanwhile, the Diels-Alder reaction remained unchanged since its reaction axis is orthogonal to the electric fields. This orientation-selective catalytic effect of OEEFs reveals that chemical reactions can be selectively manipulated through the elegant alignment between the electric fields and the reaction axis.This work was supported by the National Key R&D Program of China (2017YFA0204902), the National Natural Science Foundation of China (21722305, 21703188, 21673195, 21621091, 51733004, 51525303, and 91745103), the China Postdoctoral Science Foundation (2017M622060), and the Young Thousand Talents Project of China. 该工作得到国家自然科学基金委（21722305、21703188、21673195、51733004、51525303、91745103），国家重点研发计划课题（2017YFA0204902），中国博士后面上基金（2017M622060）的资助，以及固体表面物理化学国家重点实验室、醇醚酯化工清洁生产国家工程实验室、能源材料化学协同创新中心的支持

Transition from tunneling leakage current to molecular tunneling in single-molecule junctions

数十年来，半导体工业一直遵循基于“摩尔定律”所设定的发展蓝图，逐步提升集成电路芯片上晶体管的集成度和运行速度，减小器件尺寸。为探索这一尺寸极限，课题组基于机械可控裂结技术自主开发了具有飞安级电学测量和亚纳米级位移控制灵敏度的科学仪器，在国际上首次获取了一系列具有不同重复单元的寡聚苯乙炔类分子电导随电极间距的演变关系，并发现随着电极间距的缩小，器件电输运由通过分子器件电流占主导逐步转变到由隧穿漏电流占主导。对于本研究中具有最小尺寸的寡聚苯乙炔分子器件，其由于隧穿漏电流所制约的尺寸极限可小至0.66 nm，预示了有机分子器件在未来电子器件小型化方面具有重要的应用潜力。 这一研究工作是在化学化工学院洪文晶教授、萨本栋微纳研究院杨扬助理教授以及英国Durham University的MartinR.

At this scale, to promote charge transport and overcome the tunneling leakage current between the source and drain terminals, molecular electronic junctions offer opportunities by inserting molecules between these two electrodes. Employing a series of oligo(aryleneethynylene) (OAE) molecules, here we investigate the transition from tunneling leakage current to molecular tunneling in the single-molecule devices using mechanically controllable break junction (MCBJ) technique, and the transition distances of the OAE molecular junctions were determined and even down to 0.66 nm for OAE2 molecular junction, which demonstrates that the intrinsic charge transport properties of a single-molecule device can be outstripped from the tunneling leakage current. Consequently, molecular electronic devices show the potential to push the ultimate limit of miniaturization to the scale of several angstroms.This work was supported by the National Key R&D Program of China (2017YFA0204902).
