TL;DR: The graphene monolith has an ultra-high through-plane thermal conductivity of 143 W m-1 K-1 exceeding that of many metals, and a low compressive modulus comparable to that of silicones, demonstrating the superior ability to solve the interfacial heat transfer issues in electronic systems.
Abstract: Along with the technology evolution for dense integration of high-power, high-frequency devices in electronics, the accompanying interfacial heat transfer problem leads to urgent demands for advanced thermal interface materials (TIMs) with both high through-plane thermal conductivity and good compressibility. Most metals have satisfactory thermal conductivity but relatively high compressive modulus, and soft silicones are typically thermal insulators (0.3 W m-1 K-1). Currently, it is a great challenge to develop a soft material with the thermal conductivity up to metal level for TIM application. This study solves this problem by constructing a graphene-based microstructure composed of mainly vertical graphene and a thin cap of horizontal graphene layers on both the top and bottom sides through a mechanical machining process to manipulate the stacked architecture of conventional graphene paper. The resultant graphene monolith has an ultrahigh through-plane thermal conductivity of 143 W m-1 K-1, exceeding that of many metals, and a low compressive modulus of 0.87 MPa, comparable to that of silicones. In the actual TIM performance measurement, the system cooling efficiency with our graphene monolith as TIM is 3 times as high as that of the state-of-the-art commercial TIM, demonstrating the superior ability to solve the interfacial heat transfer issues in electronic systems.

TL;DR: This review focuses on five main topics: (1) the permutations and plasticity of CAM, (2) the requirements for CAM evolution, (3) the drivers of CAM evolution; (4) the prevalence and taxonomic distribution of CAM among vascular plants with emphasis on Orchidaceae; and (5)themolecular underpinning sofCAMevolution includingcircadianclockregulation of gene expression.

TL;DR: An efficient, formal [4 + 2] synthesis of synthetically valuable piperidin-4-ones from secondary amines in two steps has been achieved via a key gold catalysis without the purification of tertiary amine intermediates.
Abstract: An efficient, formal [4 + 2] synthesis of synthetically valuable piperidin-4-ones from secondary amines in two steps has been achieved via a key gold catalysis without the purification of tertiary amine intermediates. This reaction is selective toward the less-substituted alkyl group and shows moderate to excellent diastereoselectivities. Its synthetic potential in alkaloid synthesis is demonstrated in a highly diastereoselective synthesis of (±)-cermizine C.

TL;DR: For example, this article found that the absence of interactions with family was more closely linked to loneliness than was the case in individualistic societies, whereas traditional social bonds are more potent in collectivistic societies.
Abstract: Using two multilevel analyses of residents in 12 (1992 Eurobarometer; N = 3,902) and 22 (2006 European Social Survey, N = 38,867) European societies, respectively, we examined loneliness as a function of dominant cultural values. Levels of loneliness were higher in collectivistic compared with individualistic societies, but societies differed in terms of their predictors of loneliness. In collectivistic societies, the absence of interactions with family was more closely linked to loneliness than was the case in individualistic societies. Conversely, in individualistic societies, the absence of interactions with friends and having a confidant was more closely linked to loneliness than in collectivistic societies. Findings are consistent with the notion that autonomy and choice with regard to interaction partners have greater implications for well-being in individualistic societies whereas traditional social bonds are more potent in collectivistic societies.
