Synthesis and Characterization of Pressure and Temperature Dual‐Responsive Polystyrene Microbeads

A facile approach to the synthesis of pressure and temperature dual‐responsive polystyrene (PS) microbeads with controlled sizes via dispersion polymerization is described. Three different luminophors are selected and directly introduced into the reaction system and thus incorporated into the resultant PS microbeads during polymerization. By manipulating the reaction conditions, including concentrations of the initiator and monomer, polarity of the reaction medium, and injection rate for the monomer, uniform PS microbeads with sizes ranging from 1 to 5 μm are obtained. When a light source centered at 365 nm is used to excite all the luminophors in the PS beads, three distinct and resolvable emission peaks corresponding well with the luminophors are observed. By taking advantage of their sensitive responses to both pressure and temperature, the PS beads can be utilized for quantitative measurements of these two stimulations simultaneously. The PS beads loaded with multiple luminophors have the ability to serve as building blocks for the fabrication of novel sensing and imaging devices and therefore provide a promising strategy for the study of aerodynamics.

Carbon nanotube emitters and field emission triode

Based on our study on field emission from multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), we experimentally manufactured field emission display (FED) triode with a MWNTs cold cathode, and demonstrated an excellent performance of MWNTs as field emitters. The measured luminance of the phosphor screens was 1.8 × 103 cd/m2 for green light. The emission is stable with a fluctuation of only 1.5% at an average current of 260 μA.     

Monodisperse polystyrene microspheres prepared by dispersion polymerization with microwave irradiation

Monodisperse polystyrene microspheres with diameters of 200–500 nm were prepared by dispersion polymerization with microwave irradiation with poly(N‐vinylpyrrolidone) as a steric stabilizer and 2,2′‐azobisisobutyronitrile as a radical initiator in an ethanol/water medium. The morphology, size, and size distribution of the polystyrene microspheres were characterized with transmission electron microscopy and photon correlation spectroscopy, and the formed films of the polystyrene dispersions were characterized with atomic force microscopy. The effects of the monomer concentration, stabilizer concentration, and initiator concentration on the size and size distribution of the polystyrene microspheres were investigated. The polystyrene microspheres prepared by dispersion polymerization with microwave irradiation were smaller, more uniform, and steadier than those obtained with conventional heating. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dense coding scheme using superpositions of Bell-states and its NMR implementation

Dense coding using superpositions of Bell-states is proposed. The generalized Grover's algorithm is used to prepare the initial entangled states, and the reverse process of the quantum algorithm is used to determine the entangled state in the decoding measurement. Compared with the previous schemes, the superpositions of two Bell-states are exploited. Our scheme is demonstrated using a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) quantum computer. The corresponding manipulations are obtained. Experimental results show a good agreement between theory and experiment. We also generalize the scheme to transmit eight messages by introducing an additional two-state system.     

Transport in solid oxide porous electrodes: Effect of gas diffusion

We extend our previous treatment of a mixed ionic electronic conductor membrane, consisting of a porous cathode and anode separated by a thin non-porous layer, to the case where mass transport of molecules in the porous electrodes can be the rate-limiting step. The linearized transport equations for the ion-hole pairs in the solid and of the gas molecules in the pores are characterized by the length scales L_P = √L_d(1 − φ)/Sτ_s and L_g = 2L_p√[τ_sφ/τ(1 − φ)][D_gc_g/D_IEc_i] respectively, where L_d = D_IE/K is the length scale that determines the transition from diffusion limited to surface exchange limited transport in the non-porous electrodes, K is the surface exchange coefficient, D_IE and D_g are the diffusion coefficients of the ion-hole pairs and of the molecules, c_i and c_g are the concentrations of the ions and molecules, S is the pore surface area per unit volume, φ the porosity and τ_s and τ the tortuosities of the solid and pore phases respectively. When L_g L_p, which is the case treated previously, the rate-limiting step in the transport is ionic diffusion and surface exchange. Enhancements in oxygen ion current of two orders in magnitude, over non-porous electrodes, are in principle achievable with porous perovskite MIEC having surface area s = 10⁶ cm⁻¹. When L_g L_p the rate-limiting step is mass transport in the pores and the enhancement in ion current is substantially reduced.     

Theo-chlorotoluene photodissociation at 266 nm

Based on theab initio calculation results, the hydrogen atom transfer has been investigated. In order to explain the experimental results, a new mechanism is proposed, that is, hydrogen transfer occurs before but not after CI atom eliminates from aromatic ring. The calculation result strongly supports this mechanism.
