Characterization of three-color CARS in a two-pulse broadband CARS spectrum

We demonstrate that a broadband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) spectrum generated with a typical two-pulse scheme contains two distinct, significant signals: '2-color' CARS, where the pump and probe are provided by a narrowband pulse and the continuum pulse constitutes the Stokes light, and '3-color' CARS, where the pump and Stokes are provided by two different frequency components in the continuum pulse and the narrowband pulse serves as the probe. The CARS spectra from the two different mechanisms show distinct characteristics in Raman shift range, laser power dependence, and chirping dependence. We discuss the potential for a 3-color CARS signal to cover the fingerprint region with reduced photodamage of live cells.

生物基超韧聚乳酸复合材料的制备与性能

采用来源于可再生资源的聚醚酰胺弹性体（PEBA）增韧聚乳酸（PLA）制备超韧聚乳酸（PLA/PEBA-GMA）复合材料.为了提高PEBA与PLA之间的相容性,选择极性单体甲基丙烯酸缩水甘油酯（GMA）、共接枝单体乙烯基吡咯烷酮（NVP）及引发剂过氧化二异丙苯（DCP）对PEBA进行接枝改性制备PEBA-GMA.研究了接枝单体组分的用量（m/g）对PLA/PEBA-GMA复合材料性能的影响.研究发现,随着接枝单体组分用量的提高,复合材料的缺口冲击强度逐渐增大,当接枝单体组分GMA,NVP和DCP的用量分别为2.5,2.5和0.25 g时,复合材料的冲击强度高达88.6 kJ/m²,断裂伸长率为164.1%.研究表明,在熔融共混过程中,聚乳酸的端基（—OH和—COOH）与PEBA-GMA上环氧基团发生反应,有效改善两相间的界面相容性,随着接枝单体组分比例的提高,分散相PEBA-GMA的粒子尺寸逐渐减小且分布均匀.     

Supramolecular Assemblies of Three New Metronidazole Derivatives Constructed with Various Dihydroxy-benzoic Acids via Hydrogen Bonds

Metronidazole(MTZ) is an important antibiotic, which has been widely applied to cure protozoal and bacterial diseases for human beings or animals. Herein, three novel drug supramolecular crystals constructed by MTZ with 2,5-dihydroxy-benzoic acid(2,5-DHBA)(1), 2,6-dihydroxy-benzoic acid(2,6-DHBA)(2) and 3,5-dihydroxy-benzoic acid(3,5-DHBA)(3), respectively, have been discovered. The hydrogen bonds of N-H···O(O-H···N), C-H···O and O-H···O play important roles in the 3D supramolecular framework formation for crystals 1-3. Interestingly, due to the vary locations of the substituent groups, the two-dimensional layers in crystals 1 or 2 are constructed via intermolecular hydrogen bonds between MTZ and 2,5-DHBA or 2,6-DHBA, while in crystal 3 water molecules play a significant role except the intermolecular hydrogen bonds between MTZ and 3,5-DHBA. In addition, five synthons of I R₂²(8), II R₃³(9) in crystal 1, III R₁²(4), IV R₂²(8) in crystal 2 and V R₂²(7) in crystal 3 formed through various hydrogen bonds are founded in this work. Systematic studies of syntheses, crystal structures and thermal analysis are reported.     

Generalized Halanay inequalities for dissipativity of Volterra functional differential equations

This paper is concerned with the dissipativity of theoretical solutions to nonlinear Volterra functional differential equations (VFDEs). At first, we give some generalizations of Halanay's inequality which play an important role in study of dissipativity and stability of differential equations. Then, by applying the generalization of Halanay's inequality, the dissipativity results of VFDEs are obtained, which provides unified theoretical foundation for the dissipativity analysis of systems in ordinary differential equations (ODEs), delay differential equations (DDEs), integro-differential equations (IDEs), Volterra delay-integro-differential equations (VDIDEs) and VFDEs of other type which appear in practice.     

Boundary-Connected Higher Order Weyl Semimetals in a Helix-Shaped Phononic Crystal

The proposal of higher-order topology leads to intriguing wave propagation properties beyond the conventional bulk-boundary principle in condensed matter physics. Theoretical and experimental models have been conducted to reveal exotic higher-order hinge and corner states in lower dimensions. Meanwhile, this concept is extended to semimetals and verified in platforms like acoustic and photonic systems. However, most existing schemes are confined to C_n-symmetric-like frameworks. Here a phononic higher-order Weyl semimetal (HOWSM) is put forward by introductions of artificial gauge flux shape. Distinguished from most existing schemes, the traditional two-dimensional lattice with a vertical screw-extending operation is deformed, which guarantees the emergence of higher-order Weyl points. The invariant index is utilized to measure different phases between non-trivial topological and normal insulators visibly. Simulation results indicate that the structure supports robust hinge wave transmission in a piling sample. This work brings new approaches for constructing HOWSMs and enriches the potential applications in manufacturing high-performance acoustic devices.

A novel cationic emulsifier used for preparing slow-cracking and rapid-setting asphalt: Synthesis,surface activity,and emulsification ability

A novel cationic emulsifier including nonionic fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether was synthesized in two steps from epichlorohydrin, octadecyl dimethyl amine, and fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, and the intermediate product could also be used as an emulsifier. Their structures were characterized by FTIR, and the surface activities were investigated by surface tension, electrical conductivity, and HLB. The obtained results indicated that the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the final product was low, 0.442 mmol/L, and the surface tension at the CMC was 41.02 mN/m. The hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB) value was 12, which meet the requirements of asphalt emulsifiers. A series of experiments of the emulsified asphalt prepared by the emulsifiers were performed. The results showed that the emulsified asphalt could be stably stored for more than 5 days when the emulsifier was 2 wt% and the pH value was between 3 and 4. The result of demulsification experiments showed that the emulsifier is a slow-cracking and rapid-setting asphalt emulsifier.
