采用密度泛函理论广义梯度近似第一性原理计算的方法研究了n型Ga掺杂的纤锌矿结构氧化物ZnO的晶格结构、能带结构和态密度,在此基础上分析了其电性能.计算结果表明,掺杂ZnO氧化物晶格a,b轴增大,c轴略有减小;Ga掺杂ZnO氧化物两能带之间具有0.6eV的直接带隙,需要载流子(电子)跃迁的能隙宽度较未掺杂的ZnO氧化物减小;掺杂体系费米能级附近的态密度大大提高,其能带主要由Gas态、Zns态和Os态电子构成,且他们之间存在着强相互作用,其中Gas态电子对导带贡献最大.电输运性能分析结果表明,Ga掺杂ZnO氧化物导电机构由Znp-Op电子在价带与导带的跃迁转变为Gas-Znd-Os电子在价带与导带的跃迁,这也表明Gas态电子在导电过程中的重要作用;掺杂体系费米能级附近的载流子有效质量较未掺杂体系增大,且价带中的载流子有效质量较大,导带中的载流子有效质量较小.     

B与N掺杂对单层石墨纳米带自旋极化输运的影响

通过第一性原理计算研究了具有锯齿状边沿并且具有反铁磁构型的单层石墨纳米带的自旋极化输运.研究发现,在中心散射区同一位置掺入单个B和N原子,尽管对整个体系磁矩的影响完全相同,但对两个自旋分量电流的影响却完全相反.掺B时,自旋向上的电流显著大于自旋向下的电流;而掺N时,自旋向下的电流显著大于自旋向上的电流.这是由于不管掺B还是掺N都将打破自旋简并,使得导带和价带中自旋向上的能级比自旋向下的能级更高.掺B引入空穴,使完全占据的价带变为部分占据,从而自旋向上的能级正好处于费米能级,使得电子透射能力更强、电流更大,而自旋向下的能级则离费米能级较远使电子透射的能力较弱.掺N则引入电子,使得原来全空的导带变为部分占据,从而费米能级穿过导带中自旋向下的能级,使得自旋向下的电子比自旋向上的电子透射能力更强. 关键词： 自旋极化输运 单层石墨纳米带 第一性原理 非平衡格林函数     

Ba置换对钙钛矿型氧化物CaMnO_3稳定性及电子结构的影响

采用赝势法近似密度泛函理论的方法研究了重元素Ba置换钙钛矿型氧化物CaMnO_3的稳定性及电子结构.结果表明,Ba置换引入晶格畸变,且具有各向异性.Ba置换钙钛矿型氧化物CaMnO_3呈现明显的半导体特性,且其稳定性降低.Ba置换Ca位之后,钙钛矿型氧化物CaMnO_3仍然呈间接带隙型能带结构,自旋向上和自旋向下的电子能带带隙宽度分别减小到0.659 eV和0.655 eV,且经过Ba置换之后向导体转变.Ba置换CaMnO_3晶体中的电子主要在-37.5 eV,-18 eV,-16 eV,-5 eV～0 eV,1 eV附近形成能带,能级数量在-18 eV,-16 eV,-0.7 eV三个极值点依次降低.Ba置换钙钛矿型氧化物CaMnO_3价带中和导带中的电子能级弥散性不同,表明它们具有不同的有效质量.Mn p,O p和Mn d电子对钙钛矿型氧化物CaMnO_3费米面态密度具有较大的贡献,它们决定CaMnO_3材料的导电过程.     

空位缺陷及Mg替位对纤锌矿(Ga,Mn)N电子结构和磁光性能的影响

采用自旋密度泛函理论框架下的广义梯度近似(GGA+U)平面波超软赝势方法,构建了未掺杂纤锌矿GaN超胞、三种不同有序占位Mn双掺GaN,(Mn,Mg)共掺杂GaN以及存在空位缺陷的Mn掺杂GaN超胞模型,分别对所有模型的能带结构、电子态密度、能量以及光学性质进行了计算.计算结果表明:与纯的GaN相比,Mn掺杂GaN体系的体积略有增大,掺杂体系居里温度能够达到室温以上;随着双掺杂Mn-Mn间距的增大,体系总能量和形成能升高、稳定性下降、掺杂越难;(Mn,Mg)共掺杂并不能有效增大掺杂体系磁矩,也不能达到提高掺杂体系居里温度的作用;Ga空位缺陷和N空位缺陷的存在不利于Mn掺杂GaN形成稳定的铁磁有序.此外,Mn离子的掺入在费米能级附近引入自旋极化杂质带,正是由于费米能级附近自旋极化杂质带中不同电子态间的跃迁,介电函数虚部在0.6868eV附近、光吸收谱在1.25eV附近分别出现了一个较强的新峰.

Summary The classical equations of thermodynamics are here rewritten in the form of a field equation in then-dimensional space of the state variables.

By using the field expression thus obtained, it becomes possible to reformulate classical thermodynamics in a very compact way. Due to the relevance of its scientific content, this paper has been given priority by the Journal Direction.

Three new diphenylhexatriene derivatives, two phospholipids and one single-chain amphiphilic molecule, have been synthesized and considered as probes for measuring membrane fluidity by fluorescence anisotropy. The possibility of using these probes to determine specifically fluidity of inner leaflets of cellular plasma membranes was inferred from their partitioning properties between gel and liquid crystalline phases of phospholipid vesicles of binary composition.     

Improved optical performance of CdO films prepared with CTAB as surfactant

The influence of surfactant cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) on structural, morphological and optical properties of CdO films has been investigated. Five series of CdO films were successfully prepared by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction method with the assistance of CTAB. These CdO films were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and UV–vis spectroscopy. The CTAB caused in a decrease in crystallite size but an increase in the optical band gap of CdO films. From the optical investigations, it was observed that the transmittance of the pure film was about 2% and it increased dramatically to 37% for 2?M% CTAB added CdO films at the wavelength of 1100?nm. The results show that the amount of CTAB played an important role in determining the physical properties of the CdO nanostructures.

Shape-controlled synthesis of nickel phosphide nanocrystals and their application as hydrogen evolution reaction catalyst

Monodisperse nickel phosphide (Ni₂P) nanorods and nanoparticles were synthesized by one step solution-phase route, in which the mixture of trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) and trioctylphosphine (TOP) was used as solvent, capping agent and phosphor source. The morphologies of the Ni₂P nanocrystals were controlled simply by varying the dropping rate of metal source. The as-prepared Pt-free Ni₂P nanocrystals exhibit the enhanced electrocatalytic activity toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) compared to pure commercial Ni nanoparticles. Therefore, the obtained Ni₂P nanocrystals appear to be promising non precious metal electrocatalysts for HER.     

Tribological properties of chemically bonded polyimide films on silicon with polyglycidyl methacrylate brush as adhesive layer

Polyimide thin films, which possess good stability and film uniformity, are successfully fabricated on single crystal silicon wafers coated with a thin polymer brush by suface-initiated polymerization (SIP) as an adhesive layer. The growth kinetic of polyglycidyl methacrylate (PGMA) brush was studied by the means of ellipsometry. The nano-scale morphology and chemical composition of PGMA brush and polyimide film were studied with atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FT-IR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The tribological behaviors of the thin films sliding against AISI-52100 steel ball were examined on a static-dynamic friction precision measurement apparatus and UMT-2MT tribometer. The worn surface of the polyimide thin films was investigated with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicated that the chemically bonded polyimide films exhibited better friction reduction and antiwear behavior compared to the polymide films on bare silicon surface. At a load of 0.5 N and sliding speed of 20 mm s⁻¹, the durability life of the polyimide thin films is over 25,000 sliding cycles and the friction coefficient is about 0.08.     

The structural, optical, and dielectric spectroscopy studies of novel ZnO–As2O3 glass system with Sb2O3 as additive

ZnO–As₂O₃–Sb₂O₃ glasses of varying concentrations of Sb₂O₃ with ZnO (ranging from 5 to 45 mol%) are prepared. A number of studies, including differential thermal analysis, and study of spectroscopic properties (viz., optical absorption and IR spectra) and dielectric properties (constant ε′, loss tan δ and ac conductivity σ_ac) over a wide range of frequency and temperature of these glasses are carried out. Analyses of the results of these investigations have indicated that the glasses containing higher concentrations of Sb₂O₃ are more suitable for non-linear optical (NLO) applications.     

Systematic study of luminescent properties of new lanthanide complexes using crown ethers as ligand

This is a report on the synthesis, characterization and spectroscopic study of 24 lanthanide-crown ether coordination compounds, where Eu(III), Tb(III) and Gd(III) were complexes to 12-crown-4 (12C4), 15-crown-5 (15C5), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and 2,2′-dipyridyl (dipy). The compounds were synthesized in an ethanol/acetone solution at room temperature and analyzed using CHN elemental analysis and infrared, absorption and emission spectroscopies. The polarizability that the ligand exerts on the emission process was verified and found remarkable. The Eu-15C5-phen complex showed the highest quantum efficiency (71.6%) because of its low non-radiative rate and highest polarizability with reference to the ligands system.
