制备了甘氨酸-壳聚糖复合膜修饰玻碳电极(Gly-CTS/GCE),研究了抗坏血酸(AA)和尿酸(UA)在该修饰电极上的电化学行为。结果表明在pH=5.59的磷酸盐缓冲溶液中,AA、UA在Gly-CTS/GCE上均产生灵敏的不可逆氧化峰,其峰电流与浓度在一定范围内呈良好的线性关系。对AA和UA混合溶液平行测定7次,相对标准偏差分别为4.6%、2.9%,表明该电极重现性和稳定性良好。AA、UA在Gly-CTS/GCE电极上的氧化峰峰电位相差340mV,据此可实现对二者的同时检测,并可应用于实际样品测定。     

Speciation and oxidation kinetics of arsenic in the thermal springs of Wiesbaden spa, Germany

Since 1886 arsenic has been known to be present as a trace component in the Wiesbaden thermal waters at concentrations of over 100 microg L(-1). In this study for the first time molecular level speciation of arsenic was measured both in the water (by HG-AAS) and in wellstone scale deposits (by XANES). Most of the arsenic in the anoxic NaCl-type waters is in the reduced arsenite form. Hydrous ferric oxide (HFO) precipitates in the scale deposits scavenge only the minor dissolved arsenate portion which is, however, accumulated up to 3% w/w. Isothermal precipitation experiments at in-situ temperatures showed a difference between the progress of both arsenic and iron oxidation and precipitation. This can be explained in terms of adsorption of the aqueous arsenite and heterogeneous oxidation on the HFO surface, but subsequently rapid release of the arsenate thereby formed back into the aqueous phase at enhanced temperature and increased pH. Such relatively rapid pseudo-homogeneous arsenite oxidation is too slow to efficiently retard the As(III) load already on the wellhead, but fast enough to prevent arsenic seepage into ground water aquifers.

Axialisation, cooling and quenching of ions in a Penning trap

On the basis of a macroscopic ground state population it was argued recently that Bose-Einstein condensation should occur in a one-dimensional harmonic potential. We examine this situation by drawing analogies to bosons in a two-dimensional box, where the thermodynamic limit is well-defined. We show that in both systems although the ground state populations show sharp onsets at the critical temperature, the behaviour of the specific heat is analytic, which proves the absence of a phase transition in these systems.

Elastic excitations in polycarbonate membranes

Brillouin light scattering was used to probe acoustic waves propagating with both longitudinal and transverse polarizations in the surface and the bulk of self‐supported particle track‐etched polycarbonate membranes with 15‐ and 80‐nm nanopores. The recorded scattering line shape at gigahertz frequencies reveals changes in the surface waves of the membranes which are more pronounced for the 80‐nm nanopores despite the low porosity (0.7 and 0.05%). Because the measured elastic constants (1.2 and 6.2 GPa) were found to compare very well with the values for thick polycarbonate film, modifications of the elasto‐optical coefficients and/or the transparency might be the reason for the different scattering line shapes. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Subharmonic excitation of the eigenmodes of charged particles in a Penning trap

When parametrically excited, a harmonic system reveals a nonlinear dynamical behaviour which is common to non-deterministic phenomena. The ion motion in a Penning trap -- which can be regarded as a system of harmonic oscillators -- offers the possibility to study anharmonic characteristics when perturbed by an external periodical driving force. In our experiment we excited an electron cloud stored in a Penning trap by applying an additional quadrupole r.f. field to the endcaps. We observed phenomena such as individual and center-of-mass oscillations of an electron cloud and fractional frequencies, so-called subharmonics, to the axial oscillation. The latter show a characteristic threshold behaviour. This phenomenon can be explained with the existence of a damping mechanism affecting the electron cloud; a minimum value of the excitation amplitude is required to overcome the damping. We could theoretically explain the observed phenomenon by numerically calculating the solutions of the damped differential Mathieu equation. This numerical analysis accounts for the fact that for a weak damping of the harmonic system we observed an even-odd-staggering of the the different orders of the subharmonics in the axial excitation spectrum.Received: 22 September 2003, Published online: 2 December 2003PACS: 52.27.Jt Nonneutral plasmas - 82.80.Qx Ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry     

Hyperfine structure and \user1{g} factor measurements on Ba+ and Eu+ isotopes

Paul and Penning ion traps have been used to determine hyperfine structure coupling constants as well as nuclear $\user1{g} $ factors of Ba⁺ ions with great precision. Attempts are under way to measure both quantities for a long chain of Eu isotopes in order to determine differential hyperfine anomalies for a better understanding of the Bohr–Weisskopf effect.     

Precise - and -factor measurements of Ba+ isotopes

Laser-microwave double and triple resonance experiments were performed on clouds of Ba⁺ ions confined in a Penning ion trap to induce and detect electronic and nuclear spin flip transitions. Collisions with buffer gas molecules in the trap was used to reduce the lifetime of a long lived metastable state of the ions, in which population trapping might occur, and to cool the ions to the ambient temperature. Loss of ions from the trap by collisions were prevented by coupling the magnetron and reduced cyclotron motions by an additional r.f. field at the sum frequency of the two motions. Electronic Zeeman transitions in ¹³⁸Ba⁺ and ¹³⁵Ba⁺ were observed at a full width of about 3 kHz at a transition frequency of 80 GHz. The uncertainty of the line center was . From the magnetic field calibration by the cyclotron resonance of electrons stored in the same trap the g_J-factor for both isotopes could be determined to . From radiofrequency induced transitions of ¹³⁵Ba⁺ the nuclear g-factor could be determined . Both measurements improve earlier results by about one order of magnitude.
