Group Hybrid Coordination Control of Multi-Agent Systems With Time-Delays and Additive Noises

A new kind of group coordination control problemgroup hybrid coordination control is investigated in this paper.The group hybrid coordination control means that in a whole multi-agent system(MAS)that consists of two subgroups with communications between them,agents in the two subgroups achieve consensus and containment,respectively.For MASs with both time-delays and additive noises,two group control protocols are proposed to solve this problem for the containment-oriented case and consensus-oriented case,respectively.By developing a new analysis idea,some sufficient conditions and necessary conditions related to the communication intensity betw een the two subgroups are obtained for the following two types of group hybrid coordination behavior:1)Agents in one subgroup and in another subgroup achieve weak consensus and containment,respectively;2)Agents in one subgroup and in another subgroup achieve strong consensus and containment,respectively.It is revealed that the decay of the communication impact betw een the two subgroups is necessary for the consensus-oriented case.Finally,the validity of the group control results is verified by several simulation examples.

Boosting charge extraction and efficiency of inverted perovskite solar cells through coordinating group modification at the buffer layer/cathode interface

In inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs),effective modification of the interface between the metalcathode and electron transport layer (ETL) is crucial forachieving high performance and stability. Herein, sulfonatedbathocuproine, commonly known as disodium bathocuproinedisulfonate (BCDS), was employed as a cathode buffer layerto address the interfacial issues at the [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyricacid methyl ester (PCBM)/Ag interface. BCDS possesses theability to form coordinate bonds with Ag electrodes. Theutilization of the BCDS buffer layer enhanced the chargeextraction capability at the cathode interface whilesimultaneously achieving interfacial defect passivation,improving interfacial contact and increasing the built-in electricfield. Consequently, a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of25.06% was achieved. Furthermore, owing to the excellent filmforminguniformity of BCDS on PCBM, the stability of thedevice was also improved. After storage in dry air for morethan 2000 h, the device maintained 96% of its initial efficiency. This work underscores the remarkable potential of tailoringcoordination groups to enhance charge extraction efficiency at the ETL-cathode interface, unveiling a promising newfrontier in buffer layer development and performance optimization strategies for PSCs.

Hydrothermal Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Properties of Inorganic-Organic Hybrid Materials Based on Diphosphopentamolybdate

The compound of diphosphopentamolybdate { [Cu（en）（Hen）]2[P2Mo5O23] }·3H2O [en=ethylenediamine] had been obtained from the hydrothermal method and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, FT-IR, and thermogravimetric analysis The structure consist of [P2Mo5O23]^6- clusters anions, complex [Cu（en）（Hen）]^3＋ cations and crystallization water molecules, which are held together to a two-dimensional framework The most interesting feature of the compound is that two nitrogen atoms are both coordinated with Cu（ Ⅱ ） in one ethylenediamine molecule, for the other ethylenediamine molecule, only one nitrogen atom is towards Cu（ Ⅱ） and the other nitrogen atom is protonated and formed Hen^＋.

Weakly coordinating group directed rhodium-catalyzed unconventional site-selective C-H olefination of indolizines at the 8-position

A rhodium-catalyzed directing group promoted selective C-H olefination reaction of indolizines at the 8-position is re ported.Di-olefination at 2,8-positions also achieved with silver hexafluoroantimonate as an additive under similar reaction conditions.Weakly coordinating groups,such as ketone,alde hyde,amide and ester,were used as directing groups.The ester group can be removed under acid conditions and therefore is used as a traceless directing group.
