Genesis of the Maoping carbonate-hosted Pb–Zn deposit,northeastern Yunnan Province,China:evidences from geology and C–O–S–Pb isotopes

The Maoping Pb-Zn deposit(~3 Mt Pb+Zn reserves with grades of 12-30 wt%)is one of the largest Pb-Zn deposits in the Sichuan-Yunnan-Guizhou(SYG)metallogenic province,which has contributed a tremendous amount of lead and zinc resources for China.To obtain a further understanding of the sources of ore-forming materials and ore genesis of the deposit,S-Pb isotopes of sulfides and C-O isotopes of ore-stage calcites were systematically collected from representative orebodies at different elevations with a Finnigan MAT-253 mass spectrometer.The calcites separated from the sulfides of the NoⅠand NoⅡorebodies shared identical b13 CPDB values(-5.3 to-0.8‰)andδ18OSMOW values(+14.5 to+21.8‰)with those of the calcites in the SYG region,suggesting that CO2 in regional ore-forming fluids possibly had a homologous C-O source that originated from a ternary mixture of the dissolution of marine carbonate rocks,degassing process of the Emeishan mantle plume,and dehydroxylation of sedimentary organic matter.The No.Ⅰ-1 and No.Ⅰ-2 orebody was hosted in the same strata,but the sulfur source of No.Ⅰ-1 orebody(+13.1 to+19.0‰)with equilibrated sulfur fractionation(δ34Sspbaierite-<δ34Sgalena)and No.Ⅰ-2 orebody(+18.0 to+21.8‰)with sulfur equilibrium fractionation(δ34Sspnaierite>δ34-Sgalena)were different.They were derived from the allopatry thermochemical sulfate reduction(TSR)of overlying Carboniferous sulfates in the ore-hosting strata and local TSR of sulfates in the ore-bearing Upper Devonian Zaige Formation,respectively.The narrow and uniform Pb isotopic ratios of single galena grains collected from sulfides with 206Pb/204Pb of 18.713-18.759,207Pb/204Pb of 15.772-15.776 and 208Pb/204Pb of39.383-39.467 indicate a well-mixed metal source(s)that consist of Proterozoic Kunyang and Huili Group basement rocks and Devonian to Middle Permian ore-hosting sedimentary rocks.Besides,the late Permian Emeishan basalts are difficult to contribute metals for regional Pb-Zn mineralization despite a closely spatial relationship with the distribution of the Pb-Zn deposit.This is supported by Pb isotopic ratios plotting above the average upper crustal Pb evolution curves and staying far away from that of the agecorrected Emeishan basalts.Hence,taking into account of the similarities in tectonic setting,ore-hosting rock,ore assemblage,wall rock alteration,ore-controlling structure,and ore-forming materials and the differences in relationship with regional magmatism,fluid inclusion characteristic and ore grade between the Maoping deposit and typical MVT Pb-Zn deposit,the ore genesis of the Maoping deposit should be an MVT like Pb-Zn deposit.

Novel polybenzimidazole/graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets composite membrane for the application of acid-alkaline amphoteric water electrolysis

It is a great challenge to develop membrane materials with high performance and long durability for acidalkaline amphoteric water electrolysis.Hence,the graphitic carbon nitride(g-C_(3)N_(4))nanosheets were compounded with the(2,2'-m-phenylene)-5,5'-benzimidazole(m-PBI)matrix for the preparation of m-PBI/g-C_(3)N_(4) composite membranes.The synthesis of g-C_(3)N_(4) nanosheets and m-PBI matrix have been confirmed by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),transmission electron microscoy(TEM)and ^(1)H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra(^(1)H NMR),respectively.The fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR)and SEM of the composite membranes showed the g-C_(3)N_(4) nanosheets were well dispersed in the m-PBI/g-C_(3)N_(4) composite membrane.The mechanical properties test exhibited the good mechanical strength,and the TGA curves of m-PBI showed the high thermal stability of composite membranes.Besides,the m-PBI/g-C_(3)N_(4) composite membrane showed excellent proton and hydroxide ion conductivity,which was higher than pure m-PBI and Nafion 115 membrane.The acid-alkaline amphoteric water electrolysis test showed m-PBI/1%g-C_(3)N_(4) composite membrane has the best performance with a current density of 800 mA cm^(-2) at cell voltage of 1.98 V at 20℃.It showed that m-PBI/g-C_(3)N_(4) composite membrane has a good application prospect for acid-alkaline amphoteric water electrolysis.

Incorporation of layered tin(Ⅳ) phosphate in graphene framework for high performance lithium-sulfur batteries

To anchor the polysulfide and enhance the conversion kinetics of polysulfide to disulfide/sulfide is critical for improving the performance of lithium-sulfur battery.For this purpose,the graphene-supported tin(Ⅳ) phosphate(Sn(HPO_4)_2·H_2 O,SnP) composites(SnP-G) are employed as the novel sulfur hosts in this work.When compared to the graphene-sulfur and carbon-sulfur composites,the SnP-G-sulfur composites exhibit much better cycling performance at 1.0 C over 800 cycles.Meanwhile,the pouch cell fabricated with the SnP-G-sulfur cathodes also exhibits excellent performance with an initial capacity of1266.6 mAh g^(-1)(S) and capacity retention of 76.9% after 100 cycles at 0.1 C.The adsorption tests,density functional theory(DFT) calculations in combination with physical cha racterizations and electrochemical measurements provide insights into the mechanism of capture-accelerated conversion mechanism of polysulfide at the surface of SnP.DFT calculations indicate that the Li-O bond formed between Li atom(from Li_2 S_n,n=1,2,4,6,8) and O atom(from PO_3-OH in SnP) is the main reason for the strong interactions between Li_2 S_n and SnP.As a result,SnP can effectively restrain the shuttle effect and improving the cycling performance of Li-S cell.In addition,by employing the climbing-image nudged elastic band(ciNEB) methods,the energy barrier for lithium sulfide decomposition(charging reaction) on SnP is proved to decrease significantly compared to that on graphene.It can be concluded that SnP is an effective sulfur hosts acting as dual-functional accelerators for the conversion reactions of polysulfude to sulfide(discharging reaction) as well as polysulfide to sulfur(charging reaction).

Iron Regulation of Wetland Vegetation Performance Through Synchronous Effects on Phosphorus Acquisition Efficiency

Iron-rich groundwater flowing into wetlands is a worldwide environmental pollution phenomenon that is closely associated with the stability of wetland ecosystems. Combined with high phosphorus(P) loading from agricultural runoff, the prediction of the evolution of wetland vegetation affected by compound contamination is particularly urgent. We tested the effects of anaerobic iron-rich groundwater discharge in a freshwater marsh by simulating the effect of three levels of eutrophic water on native plants(Glyceria spiculosa(Fr. Schmidt.) Rosh.). The management of wetland vegetation with 1–20 mg/L Fe input is an efficient method to promote the growth of plants, which showed an optimum response under a 0.10 mg/L P surface water environment. Iron-rich groundwater strongly affects the changes in ecological niches of some wetland plant species and the dominant species. In addition, when the P concentration in a natural body of water is too high, the governance effect of eutrophication might not be as expected. Under iron-rich groundwater conditions, the δ^(13)C values of organs were more depleted, which can partially explain the differences in δ^(13)C in the soil profile. Conversely, the carbon isotope composition of soil organic carbon is indicative of past changes in vegetation. The results of our experiments confirm that iron-rich groundwater discharge has the potential to affect vegetation composition through toxicity modification in eutrophic environments.

Flexible and transparent electronics enters into a new era of electronic technologies.Ubiquitous applications involve wearable electronics,biosensors,flexible transparent displays,radio-frequency identifications（RFIDs）,etc.Zinc oxide（ZnO） and relevant materials are the most commonly used inorganic semiconductors in flexible and transparent devices,owing to their high electrical performances,together with low processing temperatures and good optical transparencies.In this paper,we review recent advances in flexible and transparent thin-film transistors（TFTs） based on ZnO and relevant materials.After a brief introduction,the main progress of the preparation of each component（substrate,electrodes,channel and dielectrics） is summarized and discussed.Then,the effect of mechanical bending on electrical performance is highlighted.Finally,we suggest the challenges and opportunities in future investigations.

Local evolutions of nodal points in two-dimensional systems with chiral symmetry

Two-dimensional systems with chiral symmetry allow stable discrete band crossings(nodal points) in Brillouin zones.Here we study the local evolutions of these nodal points under chiral symmetry preserving perturbations.We find that these evolutions can be classified by different types of local k·p models around the nodal points.Several concrete examples are calculated to illustrate our results.

Quantum simulation of lattice gauge theories on superconducting circuits:Quantum phase transition and quench dynamics

Recently,quantum simulation of low-dimensional lattice gauge theories(LGTs)has attracted many interests,which may improve our understanding of strongly correlated quantum many-body systems.Here,we propose an implementation to approximate Z;LGT on superconducting quantum circuits,where the effective theory is a mixture of a LGT and a gauge-broken term.By using matrix product state based methods,both the ground state properties and quench dynamics are systematically investigated.With an increase of the transverse(electric)field,the system displays a quantum phase transition from a disordered phase to a translational symmetry breaking phase.In the ordered phase,an approximate Gauss law of the Z;LGT emerges in the ground state.Moreover,to shed light on the experiments,we also study the quench dynamics,where there is a dynamical signature of the spontaneous translational symmetry breaking.The spreading of the single particle of matter degree is diffusive under the weak transverse field,while it is ballistic with small velocity for the strong field.Furthermore,due to the emergent Gauss law under the strong transverse field,the matter degree can also exhibit confinement dynamics which leads to a strong suppression of the nearest-neighbor hopping.Our results pave the way for simulating the LGT on superconducting circuits,including the quantum phase transition and quench dynamics.

The safety distance of a tunnel under-traversing a slope body with a landslide-prone zone

At present,substantial scientific research achievements have been made in the research on landslide occurrence,movement mechanism,mitigation measures,and structural stability during tunnel excavation.However,the interaction mechanism of a tunnel under-traversing a slope body with potential landslides is still not well understood.Based on the field data provided by previous investigations in the study area,six sets of 1:100 laboratory experiment model tests were conducted to study the stability of the landslide-prone zone of the slope body with an under-traversing tunnel.The selected distances between the tunnel and the sliding surface are 1.5,3,and 5 times of the tunnel diameter,respectively.The experiment results show the interaction between the landslide-prone zone and the tunnel,elucidating the effect of potential landslides during the tunnel excavation process and the reaction of the landslide slip on the tunnel structure.Several conclusions are obtained:①During the process of tunnel excavation,the vertical displacement of the tunnel vault decreases with the increase of the buried depth.②The vertical displacement of the sliding surface increases with the increase of the buried depth of the tunnel.The horizontal displacement of sliding surface decreases with the increase of the buried depth.③After the occurrence of a rainfall-induced landslide,the vertical displacement of the tunnel vault in the 1.5-diameter-distance case is 57.29%greater than that in the 3.0-dismeter-distance case.④For a two-cave tunnel,it is suggested that the cave farther from the landslide toe should be firstly excavated since it may generate less structural deformation.

Ultrafine monolayer Co-containing layered double hydroxide nanosheets for water oxidation

For many two-dimensional(2D)materials,low coordination edges and corner sites offer greatly enhanced catalytic performance compared to basal sites,motivating the search for new synthetic approaches towards ultrathin and ultrafine 2D nanomaterials with high specific surface areas.To date,the synthesis of catalysts that are both ultrathin(monolayer)and ultrafine(lateral size<10nm)has proven extremely challenging.Herein,using a facile ultrasonic exfoliation procedure,we describe the successful synthesis of ultrafine ZnCo-LDH nanosheets(denoted as ZnCo-UF)with a size^3.5 nm and thickness^0.5 nm.The single layer ZnCo-UF nanosheets possess an abundance of oxygen vacancies(Vo)and unsaturated coordination s让es,thereby affording outstanding electrocatalytic water oxidation performance.DFT calculations confirmed that Vo on the surface of ZnCo-UF enhanced H20 adsorption via increasing the electropositivity of the nanosheets.

Engineering CrtW and CrtZ for improving biosynthesis of astaxanthin in Escherichia coli

This study engineered β-carotene ketolase CrtW and β-carotene hydroxylase CrtZ to improve biosynthesis of astaxanthin in Escherichia coli. Firstly, crtW was randomly mutated to increase CrtW activities on conversion from β-carotene to astaxanthin. A crtW* mutant with A6 T, T105 A and L239 M mutations has improved 5.35-fold astaxanthin production compared with the wild-type control. Secondly, the expression levels of crtW* and crtZ on chromosomal were balanced by simultaneous modulation RBS regions of their genes using RBS library. The strain RBS54 selected from RBS library, directed the pathway exclusively towards the desired product astaxanthin as predominant carotenoid(99%). Lastly, the number of chromosomal copies of the balanced crtW*-crtZ cassette from RBS54 was increased using a Cre-loxP based technique, and a strain with 30 copies of the crtW*-crtZ cassette was selected. This final strain DL-A008 had a 9.8-fold increase of astaxanthin production compared with the wild-type control. Fed-batch fermentation showed that DL-A008 produced astaxanthin as predominant carotenoid(99%) with a specific titer of 0.88 g·L^(-1) without addition of inducer. In conclusion, through constructing crtW mutation, balancing the expression levels between crtW* and crtZ, and increasing the copy number of the balanced crtW*-crtZ cassette, the activities of β-carotene ketolase and β-carotene hydroxylase were improved for conversion of β-carotene to astaxanthin with higher efficiency. The series of conventional and novel metabolic engineering strategies were designed and applied to construct the astaxanthin hetero-producer strain of E. coli, possibly offering a general approach for the construction of stable hetero-producer strains for other natural products.

Synthesis of different-sized gold nanostars for Raman bioimaging and photothermal therapy in cancer nanotheranostics

Gold nanoparticles(AuNPs) have been attractive for nanomedicine because of their pronounced optical properties.Here,we customerized the methods to synthesize two types of gold nanostars,Au nanostars-1 and Au nanostars-2,which have different spire lengths and optical properties,and also spherical AuNPs.Compared to nanospheres,gold nanostars were less toxic to a variety of cells,including macrophages.Au nanostars-1 and Au nanostars-2 also manifested a similar pattern of tissue distribution upon in vivo administration in mice to that of nanospheres,and but reveled less liver retention than nanospheres.Due to their strong absorption in the near-infrared(NIR),Au nanostars-2 induced a strong hyperthermia effect in vitro upon excitation at 808 nm,and elicited a robust photothermal therapy(PTT) efficacy in ablating tumors in a mouse model of orthotopic breast cancer using 4T1 breast cancer cells.Meanwhile,Au nanostars-1 showed a great capability to enhance the Raman signal through surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy(SERS) in 4T1 cells.Our combined results opened a new avenue to develop Au nanostars for cancer imaging and therapy.

SmProt: A Reliable Repository with Comprehensive Annotation of Small Proteins Identified from Ribosome Profiling

Small proteins specifically refer to proteins consisting of less than 100 amino acids translated from small open reading frames(s ORFs),which were usually missed in previous genome annotation.The significance of small proteins has been revealed in current years,along with the discovery of their diverse functions.However,systematic annotation of small proteins is still insufficient.Sm Prot was specially developed to provide valuable information on small proteins for scientific community.Here we present the update of Sm Prot,which emphasizes reliability of translated s ORFs,genetic variants in translated s ORFs,disease-specific s ORF translation events or sequences,and remarkably increased data volume.More components such as non-ATG translation initiation,function,and new sources are also included.Sm Prot incorporated638,958 unique small proteins curated from 3,165,229 primary records,which were computationally predicted from 419 ribosome profiling(Ribo-seq)datasets or collected from literature and other sources from 370 cell lines or tissues in 8 species(Homo sapiens,Mus musculus,Rattus norvegicus,Drosophila melanogaster,Danio rerio,Saccharomyces cerevisiae,Caenorhabditis elegans,and Escherichia coli).In addition,small protein families identified from human microbiomes were also collected.All datasets in Sm Prot are free to access,and available for browse,search,and bulk downloads at http://bigdata.ibp.ac.cn/SmProt/.

Simulation of fine polydisperse particle condensational growth under an octadecane-nitrogen atmosphere

The evolution of particle size distribution （PSD） of fine polydisperse particles at high number concen- trations （7105 cm-3） was simulated through a combined model employing direct quadrature method of moments （DQMOM） with heat and mass transfer equations. The PSD was assumed to retain log-normal distribution during the heterogeneous condensation process. The model was first verified by exact solu- tion and experimental data prior to investigating the influence of initial conditions on final PSD under an octadecane-nitrogen atmosphere. Low particle number concentrations and high vapor concentrations were beneficial to shift the PSD to larger particles having a narrower distribution. Additionally, vapor depletion has more influence on the final PSD than the heat release parameter for a number concentra- tion of 10^6 cm^-3. This study may assist the design process of a gas-solid separating cyclone, to eliminate dust from high-temperature volatiles by pyrolysis of solid fuels.

Oligo(p-phenylenevinylene)-rhodium complex as intracellular catalyst for enhancing biosynthesis of polyhydroxybutyrate biomaterials

Microbial synthesis utilizes sustainable resources to produce valuable chemicals,as a potential alternative to petroleum-based chemical industry.Although metabolic engineering is an efficient method to enhance the biosynthesis efficacy of microorganisms,it requires complicated biological procedures.Herein,we report a facile intracellular catalysis system for augmenting the production of bio-based material in microorganism.Covalent linking of oligo(p-phenylenevinylene)(OPV)and cyclopentadienyl rhodium(Ⅲ)bipyridine offers intracellular metal catalyst(OPV-Rh).The OPV-Rh complex displayed certain resistance to toxic biomolecules,which guaranteed its catalytic activity in complicated biological systems.With uptake by Gramnegative bacterium Ralstonia eutropha H16(R.eutropha H16),the OPV-Rh complex promotes the transformation of intracellular NADP+to NADPH,which further enhances the biosynthesis of polyhydroxybutyrate(PHB)by this microorganism.This work demonstrates that synthetic metal catalyst can be employed for regulating microbial biosynthesis intracellularly.

Variability of Antarctic sea ice extent over the past 200 years

While Arctic sea ice has been decreasing in recent decades that is largely due to anthropogenic forcing,the extent of Antarctic sea ice showed a positive trend during 1979–2015, followed by an abrupt decrease. The shortness of the satellite record limits our ability to quantify the possible contribution of anthropogenic forcing and internal variability to the observed Antarctic sea ice variability. In this study,ice core and fast ice records with annual resolution from six sites are used to reconstruct the annualresolved northernmost latitude of sea ice edge(NLSIE) for different sectors of the Southern Ocean, including the Weddell Sea(WS), Bellingshausen Sea(BS), Amundsen Sea(AS), Ross Sea(RS), and the Indian and western Pacific Ocean(Ind WPac). The linear trends of the NLSIE are analyzed for each sector for the past100–200 years and found to be à0.08°, à0.17°, +0.07°, +0.02°, and à0.03° per decade(!95% confidence level) for the WS, BS, AS, RS, and Ind WPac, respectively. For the entire Antarctic, our composite NLSIE shows a decreasing trend(à0.03° per decade, 99% confidence level) during the 20 th century, with a rapid decline in the mid-1950 s. It was not until the early 1980 s that the observed increasing trend occurred. A comparison with major climate indices shows that the long-term linear trends in all five sectors are largely dominated by the changes in the Southern Annular Mode(SAM). The multi-decadal variability in WS,BS, and AS is dominated by the Interdecadal Pacific Oscillation, whereas that in the Ind WPac and RS is dominated by the SAM.

Leakage performance of labyrinth seal for oil sealing of aero-engine

Experimental investigation has been done to evaluate the leakage performance of labyrinth seal for oil sealing on high-speed sealing test rig at different working and geometric parameters.Typical values of pressure ratio ranging from 1.0 to 2.0 were used and the rotating speed varied from 0 to 30,000 tpm.Dimensionless Taylor number was invited to response the effect of rotation.Oil was injected at the rate from 1.2 L/min to 2.8 L/min to check the sealing capacity.Leakage was measured at different seal configurations including sealing clearance,tooth tip thickness,pitch,teeth number,front inclined angle and oil-throwing angle.Different from gas sealing,the application of oil-throwing tooth in oil sealing attracted much interest as an obvious alternative to the conventional labyrinth seal.A blocking ring was captured during testing,which establishes understanding of underlying flow mechanisms in the clearance and plays an important role in oil sealing.There is a critical Taylor number at which the leakage coefficient drops drastically.After the critical Taylor number,a parabola rule appears.An optimal composition of tooth tip thickness,teeth number,oil-throwing angle and front inclined angle exists where the leakage performance behaves better.

Coarsening Behavior of Gamma Prime Precipitates in a Nickel Based Single Crystal Superalloy

The γ/γ＇ microstructural evolution in a nickel based single crystal superalloy during load-free thermal exposure at 900 ℃ has been further investigated in this paper. The growth characteristics of γ＇ precipitates were discussed in detail. The generation of interfacial dislocations would accelerate the rate of coalescence in the dendrite arms. The average sizes of precipitates were used to compare interface with diffusion controlled growth mechanism and no mechanism seems obviously dominant, although the square rate law gives slightly better fit. The coarsening behavior may be controlled by diffusion through the ragged interface between the γ＇ precipitate and the y matrix.

Astronomical tuning and magnetostratigraphy of Neogene biogenic reefs in Xisha Islands, South China Sea

Biogenic reefs are one of two major depositional types in the South China Sea, and are constructed by coral, algae and bryozoa. The West Pacific is a major area of biogenic reef development and plays a critical role in the global carbon cycle. However, the lack of geochronological studies in previous works inhibits our understanding of their contributions. Herein, we conduct a cyclostratigraphic and magnetostratigraphic study on Neogene biogenic reefs using the XK–1 core that was drilled at the Shidao Island,Xisha(Paracel) Islands. The main findings of this study are:(1) the establishment of reliable magentostratigraphy for Ledong, Huangliu, Meishan and Sanya Formations;(2) the magnetic susceptibility variation can be inferred as growth index and tuned to the 405–ka long eccentricity cycle;(3) the astronomical geochronology suggests that the bottom ages for Ledong, Yinggehai, Huangliu, Meishan,and Sanya Formations are 2.2 Ma, 5.7 Ma, 10.4 Ma, 16.6 Ma, and 24.3 Ma, respectively; and (4) Earth's eccentricity and obliquity played predominant roles in biogenic reef establishment on orbital to tectonic timescales. Thus, the reported geochronology offers an opportunity to test the contributions of various factors and hypothesize their roles in the global carbon cycle in future.

Effect of P fertilizer reduction regime on soil Olsen-P, root Fe-plaque P, and rice P uptake in rice-wheat rotation paddy fields

In agricultural systems, it is vital to use limited yet optimal phosphorus(P) resources, because excessive P fertilizer application leads to the accumulation of P in soil, increasing the risk of environmental pollution and causing the waste and exhaustion of P resources. In a rice-wheat rotation system, omitting P fertilizer application in the rice-growing season is a good alternative;however, how this P fertilization reduction influences changes in P in the soil-root-aboveground system is unclear. In this study, after a seven-year rice-wheat rotation at the Yixing(YX) and Changshu(CS) sampling sites, China, compared with P fertilization in rice-and wheat-growing seasons(PR+W), reduced P fertilization(no P fertilizer application in either season, P0;P fertilization only in wheat-growing seasons, PW;and P fertilization only in rice-growing seasons, PR) did not result in substantial variation in crop biomass. The PW treatment did not reduce crop total P, root iron(Fe)-plaque P, and soil Olsen-P at three stages of rice growth(seedling, booting, and harvesting stages) at the YX and CS sites. In contrast, concentrations of soil Olsen-P, aboveground crop total P, and root Fe-plaque P decreased in the P0 treatment by 45.8%–81.0%,24.6%–30.9%, and 45.6%–73.4%, respectively. In addition, a significant negative correlation was observed between the root Fe-plaque P and crop biomass at the two sites. Significant positive correlations were also observed between root Fe-plaque P and root total P, crop total P, and soil Olsen-P. In addition, the results of a redundancy analysis revealed that soil alkaline phosphatase(ALP) played a major role in the supply of P in soil, and was closely associated with root Fe-plaque P. The results of this study will enhance the understanding of the changes in P in the soil-root-aboveground system, particularly under P fertilizer reduction regimes.

Underwater acoustic metamaterial based on double Dirac cone characteristics in rectangular phononic crystals

We theoretically construct a rectangular phononic crystal(PC) structure surrounded by water with C2vsymmetry, and then place a steel rectangular scatterer at each quarter position inside each cell. The final complex crystal has two forms:the vertical type, in which the distance s between the center of the scatterer and its right-angle point is greater than 0.5 a,and the transverse type, in which s is smaller than 0.5 a(where a is the crystal constant in the x direction). Each rectangular scatterer has three variables: length L, width D, and rotation angle θ around its centroid. We find that, when L and D change and θ is kept at zero, there is always a linear quadruply degenerate state at the corner of the irreducible Brillouin zone. Then, we vary θ and find that the quadruply degenerate point splits into two doubly-degenerate states with odd and even parities. At the same time, the band structure reverses and undergoes a phase change from topologically non-trivial to topologically trivial. Then we construct an acoustic system consisting of a trivial and a non-trivial PC with equal numbers of layers, and calculate the projected band structure. A helical one-way transmission edge state is found in the frequency range of the body band gap. Then, we use the finite-element software Comsol to simulate the unidirectional transmission of this edge state and the backscattering suppression of right-angle, disorder, and cavity defects. This acoustic wave system with rectangular phononic crystal form broadens the scope of acoustic wave topology and provides a platform for easy acoustic operation.
