Deep-ultraviolet surface plasmon resonance of Al and Al_(core)/Al_2O_(3shell) nanosphere dimers for surface-enhanced spectroscopy

The localized surface plasmon resonance properties of Al and Alcore/Al2O3 shell nanosphere dimers with Al and Al core nanosphere radii of 20 nm and Al2O3 shell of 2 nm in the deep-ultraviolet region have been studied using the finite difference time domain method. The extinction spectra and the electric field distribution profiles of the two dimers for various gap distances between two individual nanospheres are compared with those of the corresponding monomers to reveal the extent of plasmon coupling. It is found that with the interparticle distance decreasing, a strong plasmon coupling between two Al or Alcore/Al2O3 shell nanospheres is observed accompanied by a significant red shift in the extinction spectra at the parallel polarization direction of the incident light related to the dimer axis, while for the case of the perpendicular polarization direction, a weak plasmon coupling arises characterized by a slight blue shift in the extinction spectra. The electric field distribution profiles show that benefiting from the dielectric Al2O3 shell, the gap distance of Alcore/Al2O3 shell nanosphere dimers can be tailored to < 1 nm scale and results in a very high electric field enhancement. The estimated surface-enhanced Raman scattering enhancement factors suggests that the Alcore/Al2O3 shell nanosphere dimers with the gap of < 1 nm gave rise to an enhancement as high as 8.1 × 107 for interparticle gap = 0.5 nm. Our studies reveal that the Alcore/Al2O3 shell nanosphere dimers may be promising substrates for surface-enhanced spectroscopy in the deep-ultraviolet region.

基于链状SemSn(2≤m+n≤4)小分子的硒硫碳复合正极材料的制备及其电化学性能

将Se固溶复合到链状小硫分子S_2~4中,利用超微孔碳(UMC)的空间限域效应,在UMC中成功构建了链状Se_mS_n(2≤m+n≤4)小分子,并用作锂硫(Li-S)电池正极材料。与链状S_2~4小分子相比,改性后的Se_mS_n(2≤m+n≤4)小分子电导率更高,锂化能更低,放电锂化过程更容易。所制得的UMC/Se_mS_n(2≤m+n≤4)复合正极材料的放电过程为一步固相转化反应,从而有效抑制了活性物质的穿梭流失。与UMC/S_2~4复合正极材料相比,UMC/Se_mS_n(2≤m+n≤4)复合正极材料的电荷传递阻抗更小,放电比容量更高。因此,UMC/Se_mS_n-40(2≤m+n≤4,w_SeS2∶w_UMC=4∶6)复合正极材料在0.1C时循环100次后,比容量依然保持有844 mAh·g^-1;在0.5C下长时间循环500次时,每次循环容量损失仅约为0.07%,表现出优异的循环稳定性。     

非静水压下HMX炸药晶体的高压相变

HMX是一种性能优良的高能炸药,在武器工业中广泛使用。目前,HMX在高压下特别是非静水压下的相变规律仍存在争议。为此,采用不同的传压介质,开展了非静水压下HMX晶体的高压拉曼实验研究。结果表明,HMX晶体分别在4.9、13.9和17.5 GPa发生了结构相变。在13.9 GPa下,HMX开始发生相Ⅱ→相Ⅲ的相变,并在一定的压力范围内两相共存;当压力为17.5 GPa时,出现另一个新相(相Ⅳ),在17.5～23.6 GPa的压力范围内出现相Ⅱ、相Ⅲ和相Ⅳ三相共存现象。HMX晶体在非静水压下的相变路径与准静水压下的相变路径完全不同,非静水压环境下的压力梯度是造成该差异的原因。     

Self-screening of the polarized electric field in wurtzite gallium nitride along [0001] direction

The strong polarization effect of GaN-based materials is widely used in high-performance devices such as white-light-emitting diodes (white LEDs), high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), and GaN polarization superjunctions. However, the current researches on the polarization mechanism of GaN-based materials are not sufficient. In this paper, we studied the influence of polarization on electric field and energy band characteristics of Ga-face GaN bulk materials by using a combination of theoretical analysis and semiconductor technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulation. The self-screening effect in Ga-face bulk GaN under ideal and non-ideal conditions is studied respectively. We believe that the formation of high-density two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in GaN is the accumulation of screening charges. We also clarify the source and accumulation of the screening charges caused by the GaN self-screening effect in this paper and aim to guide the design and optimization of high-performance GaN-based devices.     

Large inverse and normal magnetocaloric effects in HoBi compound with nonhysteretic first-order phase transition

HoBi single crystal and polycrystalline compounds with NaCl-type structure are successfully obtained, and their magnetic and magnetocaloric properties are studied in detail. With temperature increasing, HoBi compound undergoes two magnetic transitions at 3.7 K and 6 K, respectively. The transition temperature at 6 K is recognized as an antiferromagnetic-to-paramagnetic (AFM-PM) transition, which belongs to the first-order magnetic phase transition (FOMT). It is interesting that the HoBi compound with FOMT exhibits good thermal and magnetic reversibility. Furthermore, a large inverse and normal magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is found in HoBi single crystal in the $H|| [100]$ direction, and the positive $\Delta S_{\rm M}$ peak reaches 13.1 J/kg$\cdot$K under a low field change of 2 T and the negative $\Delta S_{\rm M}$ peak arrives at $-18 $ J/kg$\cdot$K under a field change of 5 T. These excellent properties are expected to be applied to some magnetic refrigerators with special designs and functions.     

NaYF4 微晶与纳米晶中晶相对Tb3+ -Er3+ 耦合对下转换的影响

实验研究了晶相对下转换的影响。Tb³⁺ -Er³⁺ 耦合对将一个紫外光子(Tb³⁺ 的⁷F₆→⁵L₁)294 nm 剪裁成800 nm (Er³⁺ 的⁴I_9/2→⁴I_15/2) 和467 nm (Tb³⁺ 的⁵D₄→⁷F₆) 两个都能被GaAs 太阳能电池吸收的低能光子。采用水热法制备了NaYF₄六角相微晶和立方相纳米晶粒子,六角相由于具有热力学稳定性和有序的排列结构而更有利于量子剪裁过程的发生,相反在立方相结构中没有发现量子剪裁现象。分别采用294 nm 和355 nm波长的光对六角相NaYF₄进行激发,从发射光谱可以看出,下转换的实现是通过一个交叉弛豫过程完成的。实验结果表明,与熔融法相比,用水热法制备的NaYF₄ 的量子产率明显降低。     

采用一维湍流模型对瞬态煤粉气化火焰的数值模拟

煤的气化火焰中,湍流脉动与煤颗粒气化过程间存在着强烈的相互作用。为了在全尺度范围内直接模拟这种相互作用,本文采用一维湍流模型(ODT)与煤的气化过程相耦合,在Kolrnogorov尺度下对煤气化火焰区域进行数值模拟,得到了二维平面煤气化火焰的瞬态结构。模拟结果表明,大尺度涡团能够显著改变火焰的结构,并诱发局部小尺度涡团的产生。颗粒粒径决定湍流-气化过程作用的尺度范围,粒径较小的煤颗粒容易受到气体温度和速度脉动的影响,从而改变其运动轨迹和气化反应进程。
