间二甲苯分子在不同外电场下结构和解离特性研究

间二甲苯是挥发性有机物(VOCs, Volatile Organic Compounds)的关键活性成分,研究其在外电场下的性质十分重要.采用密度泛函理论(DFT),在B3LYP/6-311G++基组水平上对间二甲苯分子进行优化,从分子结构研究了不同外电场(-0.025 a.u.～0.025 a.u.)作用下,间二甲苯分子的总能量,键长,电偶极矩,前线轨道,红外光谱和解离势能面.计算结果表明,沿两甲基中C原子连线方向的电场(-0.025 a.u.～0.025 a.u.)增加时,分子总能量和能隙先增大后减小,电偶极矩先减小后增加.通过计算发现外电场对间二甲苯分子不同键长和不同振动模式的红外光谱的影响均有所不同.间二甲苯分子的解离特性表现为:沿两甲基中C原子连线方向施加强度超过0.047 a. u.的电场时,位于电场增加方向的甲基与苯环之间起连接作用的C-C键断裂.以上计算结果可为利用电场降解间二甲苯提供重要理论参考.

Surface passivation in n-type silicon and its application in silicon drift detector

Based on the surface passivation of n-type silicon in a silicon drift detector(SDD), we propose a new passivation structure of SiO2/Al2O3/SiO2 passivation stacks. Since the SiO2 formed by the nitric-acid-oxidation-of-silicon(NAOS)method has good compactness and simple process, the first layer film is formed by the NAOS method. The Al2O3 film is also introduced into the passivation stacks owing to exceptional advantages such as good interface characteristic and simple process. In addition, for requirements of thickness and deposition temperature, the third layer of the SiO2 film is deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition(PECVD). The deposition of the SiO2 film by PECVD is a low-temperature process and has a high deposition rate, which causes little damage to the device and makes the SiO2 film very suitable for serving as the third passivation layer. The passivation approach of stacks can saturate dangling bonds at the interface between stacks and the silicon substrate, and provide positive charge to optimize the field passivation of the n-type substrate.The passivation method ultimately achieves a good combination of chemical and field passivations. Experimental results show that with the passivation structure of SiO2/Al2O3/SiO2, the final minority carrier lifetime reaches 5223 μs at injection of 5×10¹⁵ cm^-3. When it is applied to the passivation of SDD, the leakage current is reduced to the order of nA.     

Correlations of conserved charges and QCD phase structure

Correlations of conserved charges,i.e.,the baryon number,electric charge,and strangeness,are calculated at finite temperature and chemical potentials up to the fourth order.The calculations are done ina 2+1 flavor low energy effective theory,in which the quantum and thermal fluctuations are encoded through the evolution of flow equations within the functional renormalization group approach.Strangeness neutrality and a fixed ratio of the electric charge to the baryon number density are implemented throughout the computation.We find that higher-order correlations incorporate more sensitive critical dynamics than the quadratic ones.In addition,a non-monotonic dependence of the fourth-order correlations between the baryon number and strangeness,i.e.,-χ₃₁^BS/χ₂^Sand χ₂₂^BS/χ₂^S,on the collision energy is also observed.     

Self-Healable Polyelectrolytes with Mechanical Enhancement for Flexible and Durable Supercapacitors

The practical application of advanced personalized electronics is inseparable from flexible, durable, and even self-healable energy storage devices. However, the mechanical and self-healing performance of supercapacitors is still limited at present. Herein, highly transparent, stretchable, and self-healable poly(2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid) (PAMPSA)/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/LiCl polyelectrolytes were facilely prepared by one-step radical polymerization. The cooperation of PAMPSA and PVA significantly increased the mechanical and self-healing capacity of the polyelectrolyte, which exhibited superior stretchability of 938 %, stress of 112.68 kPa, good electrical performance (ionic conductivity up to 20.6 mS cm⁻¹), and high healing efficiency of 92.68 % after 24 h. After assembly with polypyrrole-coated single-walled carbon nanotubes, the resulting as-prepared supercapacitor had excellent electrochemical properties with high areal capacitance of 297 mF cm⁻² at 0.5 mA cm⁻² and good rate capability (218 mF cm⁻² at 5 mA cm⁻²). Besides, after cutting in two the supercapacitor recovered 99.2 % of its original specific capacitance after healing for 24 h at room temperature. The results also showed negligible change in the interior contact resistance of the supercapacitor after ten cutting/healing cycles. The present work provides a possible solution for the development of smart and durable energy storage devices with low cost for next-generation intelligent electronics.
