We obtain weak-type (p,p) endpoint bounds for Bochner–Riesz means for the Hermite operator H=-Δ+|x| 2 in ℝ n ,n≥2 and for other related operators, for 1≤p≤2n/(n+2), extending earlier results of Thangavelu and of Karadzhov.
The intrinsic low-symmetry crystal structures or external geometries of low-dimensional materials are crucial for polarization-sensitive photodetection. However, these inherently anisotropic materials are limited in variety, and their anisotropy is confined to specific crystal directions. Transforming 2D semiconductors, such as WSe
Zintl phase compounds with a CaAl2Si2 structure are promising thermoelectric materials. In this paper, enhanced thermoelectric performance was achieved in SmMg2Bi2, a new member of AB2X2 compounds, via Ca-alloying and Ge-doping. The introduction of point defects by alloying Ca on the Sm site significantly reduces the lattice thermal conductivity, and the lowest value was achieved when the Sm/Ca molar ratio is 1:1. Doping Ge on the Bi site increases the hole concentration of the material, which successfully suppresses the bipolar effect and significantly improves the power factor (PF) in the whole temperature range. Due to the decrease of thermal conductivity and the increase of PF over 323–873 K, the peak zT value of Sm0.5Ca0.5Mg2.15Bi1.99Ge0.01 reached 0.71 at 873 K and the zTave approached 0.44, about 51 and 47% enhancement compared with the pristine sample, respectively. This work provides a thermoelectric performance optimization strategy that can be used for other AB2X2 compounds.

In the frontier resistive micro-nano gas sensors, the change rate reliability between the measured quantity and output signals has long been puzzled by the ineluctable device-to-device and run-to-run disparities. Here, a neotype sensing data interpretation method to circumvent these signal inconsistencies is reported. The method is based on discovery of a strong linear relation between the initial resistance in air (Ra ) and the absolute change in resistance after exposure to target gas (Ra -Rg ). Metal oxide gas sensors based on a micro-hot-plate are employed as the model system. The study finds that such correlation has a wide universality, even for devices incorporated with different sensing materials or under different gas atmosphere. Furthermore, this rule can also be extensible to graphene-based interdigital microelectrode. In situ probe scanning analyses illuminate that the linear dependence is closely related to work function matching level between metal electrode and sensitive layer. The Schottky barrier at metal-semiconductor junctions is the prominent parameter, whose height (ϕB ) can fundamentally impact material/electrode contact resistance, thereby further affecting the realistic nature expression of sensing materials. Using this correlation, a calibration procedure is proposed and embed in a fully integrated pocket-size sensor prototype, whose response outcomes demonstrated high credibility as compared to commercial apparatus.
