光纤松耦合型传感器特性研究

本文介绍一种实用的光纤传感器,它由二根光纤或多根光纤紧靠一起,并在同一位置除去局部包层,成为松耦合状态,在这种状态下,研究了它的特性和应用。 当耦合间隙中充满某种液体介质时,耦合效率明显增大,因此可以方便地判别该介质是否存在。并且实验证明了一种光纤只能有一种相近于光纤芯子折射率的介质具有最大的灵敏度。当间隙内的介质不变时,耦合功率的大小决定于耦合距离d和耦合长度l,l一旦决定以后,d的调节精度为0.1mm量级,易于在机械结构上实现线性检测。     

Synchrotron X-ray structures of cellulose I<Subscript>β</Subscript> and regenerated cellulose II at ambient temperature and 100 K

Synchrotron X-ray data have been collected to 1.4 Å resolution at the NE-CAT beam-line at the Advanced Photon Source from fibers of cellulose I_β and regenerated cellulose II (Fortisan) at ambient temperature and at 100 K in order to understand the effects of low temperature on cellulose more thoroughly. Crystal structures have been determined at each temperature. The unit cell of regenerated cellulose II contracted, with decreasing temperature, by 0.25%, 0.22% and 0.1% along the a, b, and c axes, respectively, whereas that of cellulose I_β contracted only in the direction of the a axis, by 0.9%. The value of 4.6×10^?5 K^?1 for the thermal expansion coefficient of cellulose I_β in the a axis direction can be explained by simple harmonic molecular oscillations and the lack of hydrogen-bonding in this direction. The molecular conformations of each allomorph are essential unchanged by cooling to 100 K. The room temperature crystal structure of regenerated cellulose II is essentially identical to the crystal structure of mercerized cellulose II.     

Ultrasound mediation for one-pot sonosynthesis and deposition of magnetite nanoparticles on cotton/polyester fabric as a novel magnetic,photocatalytic, sonocatalytic,antibacterial and antifungal textile

A magnetic cotton/polyester fabric with photocatalytic, sonocatalytic, antibacterial and antifungal activities was successfully prepared through in-situ sonosynthesis method under ultrasound irradiation. The process involved the oxidation of Fe²⁺ to Fe³⁺ via hydroxyl radicals generated through bubbles collapse in ultrasonic bath. The treated samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnetometry. Photocatalytic and sonocatalytic activities of magnetite treated fabrics were also evaluated toward Reactive Blue 2 decoloration under sunlight and ultrasound irradiation. Central composite design based on response surface methodology was applied to study the influence of iron precursor, pH and surfactant concentration to obtain appropriate amount for the best magnetism. Findings suggested the potential of one-pot sonochemical method to synthesize and fabricate Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles on cotton/polyester fabric possessing appropriate saturation magnetization, 95% antibacterial efficiency against Staphylococcus aureus and 99% antifungal effect against Candida albicans, 87% and 70% dye photocatalytic and sonocatalytic decoloration along with enhanced mechanical properties using only one iron rich precursor at low temperature.     

Designing a plano-convex aspheric lens for fiber optics collimator

A plano-convex aspheric lens is designed to collimate the emitted light of the fiber optics. In this paper even orders of general aspheres are used to describe the aspheric surfaces sag. To determine the aspheric coefficient, the even asphere polynomial are fitted on the computed sag data. The surface sag data is determined using genetic algorithm method. The surface sag was analyzed by the commercial optical software package ZEMAX. For typical fiber optics, the numerical aperture (NA) of 0.22 was assumed. With this specification, the expected output spot diagram of 20 mm and the maximum aperture of 25.4 mm have been obtained. A comparison between here presented lens and the similar type of conventional lens has been carried out; the proposed aspheric lens corrected the spherical aberration, which led to increase in the collimated distance.     

Synthesis and Biological Activity of 2-Hydroxy-N(5-methylene-4-oxo-2-aryl-thiazolidin-3-yl)-benzamide

2-Hydroxy benzoic acid hydrazide (1) undergoes facile condensation with aromatic aldehydes to afford the corresponding 2-hydroxy benzoic acid arylidene hydrazides (2a–h) in good yields. Cyclocondensation of compounds 2a–h with thioglycolic acid yields 2-hydroxy-N(4-oxo-2-aryl-thiazolidin-3-yl)-benzamides (3a–h). These 3a–h compounds are for the reacted with benzaldehyde in the presence of sodium ethanolate affords, giving 2-hydroxy-N(5-methylene-4-oxo-2-aryl-thiazolidin-3-yl)-benzamides (4a–h). The structures of these compounds were established on the basis of analytical and spectral data. All the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial and antifungal activities.

The research on temperature measurement based on polarization dependent loss

This paper analyzes the properties of reflected polarization dependent loss of apodized fiber Bragg gratings with temperature effective. We simulates reflected spectrum and polarization dependent loss of the apodized fiber Bragg gratings. The reflected spectrum and polarization dependent loss are measured under different temperatures. The analysis results show that reflected polarization dependent loss presents two peaks which shift an equal proportion to long wavelength with temperature increasing and have very good stability so we propose an idea that use polarization dependent loss as temperature sensor measurement parameters. The results show that the accuracy of measurement can be increased almost by one order of magnitude.     

Thermal Degradation of Polysiloxane Coatings on E-Glass Fiber. A FTIR Study

Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and Thermal Analysis have been used to study the thermal and termooxidative degradation of polysiloxane coatings obtained by treating E-glass fiber with aqueous solutions of 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane. Initial weight losses were due to polymerization of the coatings. Severe oxidative degradations were observed at temperatures above 180°C. At 550°C the residue of the coating was found to be silica with free silanol groups.     

Syntheses and crystal structures of two Schiff-base copper(II) complexes with antibacterial activities

Two structurally similar trinuclear complexes, [Cu(Cu(μ-Cl)₂L1)₂] (1) and [Cu(Cu(μ-Cl)₂L2)₂] (2) (HL1 = 4-chloro-2-[(2-morpholin-4-ylethylimino)methyl]phenol, HL2 = 1-[(2-piperidin-1ylethylimino)methyl]naphthalen-2-ol), have been synthesized and structurally characterized. Both complexes are bridged trinuclear compounds. The central Cu in each complex is in an octahedral environment with two phenolate and four bridging chlorides. The symmetry-related terminal Cu in each complex is square pyramidal with one phenolate oxygen, one imine nitrogen and one amine nitrogen of the Schiff-base ligand, one Cl^? in the basal plane, and one bridging Cl^? in the apical position. The complexes and Schiff bases were tested in vitro for their antibacterial activities.     

Synthesis,crystal structure,and biological activities of a Zn(II) complex with a Se substituted Schiff base

A Zn(II) complex with an organoselenium substituted Schiff base, bis{2-[(benzylimino)methyl]-4,6-dihydroselenophenol}Zn(II), has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses and X-ray diffraction. Zn(II) is four-coordinated by two phenolate O and two imine N from two organoselenium substituted Schiff-base ligands, forming a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The title complex and its ligand were tested in vitro for their antibacterial and antitumor activity with the complex showing higher antibacterial and antitumor activities.     

Facile Synthesis of Novel Amino Acids Derivatives as Potential Antibacterial Agents using Sustainable Materials

Following the principles of green chemistry, cardanol derivatives have been used as renewable, low‐cost, and available natural starting materials to construct a variety of protected and unprotected amino acids derivatives. The reaction of cardanol derivatives with different phthaloylamino acids including glycine, alanine, phenylalanine, and valine in the presence N,N'‐ dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC ) as coupling reagent afforded high yields of the target compounds. Deprotection of phthaloylamino acids derivatives was achieved by heating with hydrazine hydrate. The chemical structures of all products were confirmed by spectral data (IR , MS , ¹H NMR , ¹³C NMR ) and elemental analyses. Antibacterial evaluation of the synthesized products was performed, which exhibited potent to weak activity in comparison with a standard drug.
