第一性原理研究SinB（n=1～12）团簇的稳定性

基于密度泛函理论（DFT），我们研究了SinB（n=1～12）团簇的稳定性．结果表明：SinB的基态构型是在Sin-1B的基态或亚稳态构型上带帽一个Si原子而得到；随着团簇尺寸的增大，B原子逐渐从吸附在Sin团簇的表面位置移动到Sin团簇笼内；掺杂B原子提高了纯硅团簇的稳定性；电子总是从Si向B转移，B原子所带的电荷数不仅与B原子的配住数有关，还与SinB团簇的基态结构密切相关.     

一种40Gb/s单信道光纤通信系统中的动态色度色散补偿

提出了一种用于40 Gb/s单信道光纤通信系统中的动态色度色散(CD)补偿技术。采用2×2光开关,色散补偿光纤(DCF)等器件构成可调节色度色散补偿器;提取中心频率为12GHz的窄带电功率信号作为反馈信号控制可调节色度色散补偿器,提取的窄带电功率值随系统中的累积色度色散值的增大而减小。实验证明,整个补偿系统的最长响应时间为0.7 s;补偿范围和补偿精度分别为81.55 ps/nm和5.28 ps/nm,通过增加光开关的数量和缩短每段色散补偿光纤的长度可以进一步提高补偿范围和精度。通过对比补偿前后系统的眼图可以看出:该系统能有效地补偿40 Gb/s光纤通信系统中动态变化的色度色散。     

An effective surface-enhanced Raman scattering template based on gold nanoparticle/silicon nanowire arrays

A large-scale Si nanowire array （SiNWA） is fabricated with gold （Au） nanoparticles by simple metal-assisted chemical etching and metal reduction processes. The three-dimensional nanostructured Au/SiNWA is evaluated as an active substrate for surface-enhanced Raman scattering （SERS）. The results show that the detection limit for rhodamine 6G is as low as 10-7 M, and the Raman enhancement factor is as large as 105 with a relative standard deviation of less than 25%. After the calibration of the Raman peak intensifies of rhodamine 6G and thiram, organic molecules could be quantitatively detected. These results indicate that Au/SiNWA is a promising SERS-active substrate for the detection of biomolecules present in low concentrations. Our findings are an important advance in SERS substrates to allow fast and quantitative detection of trace organic contaminants.
