We prove that the optimal sphere packing density in R4 equals π2/16 ≈ 0.6169, achieved uniquely by the D4 root lattice. The proof is local: we show every Voronoi cell of a unit-ball packing satisfies vol(Vc) ≥ 8, with equality if and only if the active neighbours form a copy of the D4 root system scaled to nearest-nei…

Real-time detection of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) is important for occupational safety in humid, mixed-gas environments, yet conventional chemiresistive sensors remain limited by cross-sensitivity, humidity dependence, and poor portability at room temperature. Here, we report a flexible dual-channel sens…

Abstract Carbon dots (CDs) have emerged as promising electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitters for biosensing due to their low toxicity, facile synthesis and modification, and good biocompatibility. However, most of the reported CDs require a more negative ECL trigger potential than −1.5 V vs Ag/AgCl, which not only ind…
