We report measurements of the temperature variations of the optical birefringence in the nematic (N) and partial bilayer SmA (SmAd) phases in 4-n-octyloxy 4′ -cyanobiphenyl made of rod-like (R) molecules and five mixtures of this compound with 1,3-phenylene bis[4-(3-methylbenzoyloxy)]
4′ -n- dodecylbiphenyl 4′ -carboxylate, made of bent-core (BC) molecules. The birefringence decreases with the concentration x of the BC molecules but the macroscopic order parameter initially decreases upto 11mol% of BC molecules and subsequently
increases with x . This is attributed to the possible formation of polar clusters of BC molecules. Orientation of BC molecules changes between
the N and SmAd phases and the birefringence data in the two phases imply that the kink angle of the BC molecules is ∼ 90° rather than ∼ 110° as obtained from calculations which minimize the energy of the molecule. IR spectroscopic measurements on the mixture with
11mol% of BC molecules have been used to estimate the molecular order parameter S of the R molecules, and to provide additional support for a relatively small kink angle of BC molecules. 相似文献

Organic compounds exhibiting the smectic C phase are made of rod-like molecules that have dipolar groups with lateral components. We argue that the off-axis character of the lateral dipolar groups can account for tilt in layered smectics (SmC, SmC*, SmI etc.). We develop a mean-field
theory of the smectic C phase based on a single-particle potential of the form U
C ∝ sin(2θ)cosφ, consistent with the biaxial nature of the phase, where θ and φ are the polar and azimuthal angles, respectively.
The hard-rod interactions that favour the smectic A phase with zero tilt angle are also included. The theoretical phase diagrams
compare favourably with experimental trends. Our theory also leads to the following results: i) a first-order smectic C to
smectic A transition above some value of the McMillan parameter α, leading to a tricritical point on the smectic C to smectic
A transition line and ii) a first-order smectic C to smectic C transition over a very small range of values of the model parameters.
We have also extended the theory to include the next higher-order term in the tilting potential and to include the effect
of different tilt angles for the molecular core and the chain in the SmC phase.

Summary An adiabatic capture mechanism is presented to calculate reactive cross-sections for the alkali+Cl2 and alkali+Br2 systems. The model is based on empirically constructed potential-energy surfaces and the results are found to be consistent
with the experimental values.

The influence of controllable parameters like temperature and wavelength on the trajectories of light in a nematic liquid crystal with topological defects is studied through a geometric model. The model incorporates phenomenological details as how the refractive indices depend on such parameters. The deflection of light by the topological defect is then shown to be greater at lower temperatures and shorter wavelengths. 相似文献

The scattering of slow positrons from and NO molecules is treated using exact static interactions and a model potential for correlation-polarisation forces. The
quantum coupled equations for the elastic scattering are extended to vibrationally inelastic processes and the different excitation
probabilities are evaluated. Comparison with existing experiments for the NO target indicates that the present calculations
provide a realistic treatment of positron scattering below Ps formation and give computational estimates on the efficiency
of such projectiles in producing vibrationally excited molecules in the ambient gas.

possibility to tune the position of a resonance to coincide with the maximum of the collisional energy distribution.

The synthesis of the Toffoli gate, Fredkin gate, three-qubit Inversion-on-equality gate and D(α) gate, as well as their implementation in a three spins system coupled with Ising interaction are investigated. The sequences of the control pulse and the drift process to implement these gates are given. It is revealed that the implementation of some three-qubit gates in a circular spin chain is much better than in a linear spin chain, and every two measurements of the quantum computation complexity are not always consistent. It is significant to directly study the implementation of the multi-qubit gates and even more complicated components of quantum information processing without resorting to their synthesis. 相似文献

Ionization and fragmentation of water and uracil molecules was studied both by electron and proton impact. A special coincidence
technique allows on an event by event basis the investigation of product ions formed upon the collision of protons with neutral
molecules including the identification of the charge state of the projectile. This enables the characterization of the ionization
processes occurring, i.e. direct ionization, single electron capture or double electron capture for 0, 1 or 2 electrons that are transferred from the
target to the projectile, respectively. For uracil the fragmentation patterns obtained by electron and proton impact ionization
reveal close similarities and indicate a comparable amount of excitation for the two different ionization mechanisms at high
enough projectile energies.

The full Landau potential of several, widely varying ferroelectric liquid-crystalline materials has been experimentally determined. Tilt angle and polarisation data is analysed across the SmA to SmC transition for varying applied electric-field amplitudes, allowing the determination of all the coefficients of the generalised Landau model of ferroelectric liquid crystals. The materials investigated encompass different materials, including low-polarisation mixtures to high-polarisation single-component materials. The materials also possess a variation in the order of the SmA to SmC phase transition from strongly first order to strongly second order. The effects of both the polarisation and order of phase transition of the system are discussed with respect to the various terms of the generalised Landau model. Further, the mechanisms behind the difference between a first- and second-order phase transition are discussed with respect to the Landau potential and the second Landau coefficient b . 相似文献

Ionization and fragmentation of the DNA base thymine upon
interaction with keV Cq+ ions
(q
= 1 -
6) has been studied. By means of time-of-flight
spectrometry of two or more thymine fragments in coincidence
with an ejected electron we could investigate particular
dissociation channels by means of their associated
kinetic-energy-release. The fragmentation dynamics are strongly
influenced by the Cq+ charge state:
for low q values mainly
fragmentation due to direct collisions is observed. With
increasing q, electron capture
becomes more important. For larger q we could identify several Coulomb
explosion channels, leading to very energetic fragments. 相似文献
