Positive deviation from debye‘s theory in small—angle x—ray scattering

The small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) resulting from a non-ideal two-phase system having sharply defined phase boundaries but with micro-fluctuations of electron density within any phase shows a positive deviation from Debye's theory. We have found a simple method suitable for fitting the slit-smeared SAXS data and correcting the positive deviation. The validity of this procedure is tested on porous ZrO_2 xerogel prepared using the sol-gel process.     

Superconductivity and x—ray photoemission study of MgB2 thin films

Highly c-axis oriented MgB2 thin films with Tc^onset of 39.6K were fabricated by magnesium diffusing into pulsedlaser-deposited boron precursors.The estimation of critical current density Jc,using hysteresis loops and the Bean model,has given the value of 10^7A/cm^2(15K,0T),which is one of the highest values ever reported.The x-ray photoemission study of the MgB2 thin films has revealed that the binding energies of Mg 2p and B 1s are at 49.4eV and 186.9eV,which are close to those of metallic Mg and transition-metal diborides,respectively.     

Self—assembly behaviour of amphiphilic diblock copolymer in selective solvents studied by synchrotron small—angle x—ray scattering

The aggregation behaviour of styrene-vinyl benzoic acid (PS_m-b-PVBA_n) amphiphilic diblock copolymers in selective solvents with different m and n was investigated by synchrotron small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS). We have carried out a detailed analysis of scattering intensity, dimension, shape and microstructure of the diblock copolymers of narrow distribution in water, methanol, ethanol and isopropanol selective solvents, respectively. We have found that the aggregation behaviour of the copolymer depends on the nature of the solvent and the micelle forms flat disc objects with the ratio of radius ω=0.4. The average radius gyration R_g of the copolymer decreases as solvents change from isopropanol to ethanol and to methanol, and increases with increasing pH in aqueous solution, but decreases with the addition of CoCl_2 in ethanol solvent. The scattering intensity of diblock copolymer micelle follows I(h)∝h^{-α} in different selective solutions, suggesting that the PS_m-b-PVBA_n coils have self-similar structure behaviour or a fractal structure in the selective solvents. All of these revealed that the aggregation behaviour of the diblock copolymer changes dramatically with experimental condition in the selective solvent. The increase of mass fractal dimension (D_m) from 2.12 to 2.47 indicates that the copolymer chain changes from a swollen coil to a rather compact disc in the course of changing solvents, decreasing surface fractal dimension (D_s) from 2.98 to 2.58 indicates that the copolymer micelle change from a rather rough surface to a smooth form in the course of increasing pH in aqueous solutions, and increasing D_m and D_s from 2.29 to 2.35 and 2.70 to 2.90, respectively, indicates the shrinkage of copolymer micelle to a rather compact and rough disc form by adding CoCl_2 in ethanol solvents.     

Synchrotron small angle x-ray scattering study of dye-sensitized／-unsensitized TiO2 nanoparticle colloidal solution

The wide-gap semiconductor TiO_2 nanoparticles with and without dye sensitization have been studied by small angle x-ray scattering using synchrotron radiation. Surface properties of the colloidal TiO_2 nanoparticles have been analysed in terms of the surface fractal dimensions (D_s), showing that D_s changes from 3.25 to 2.34 when TiO_2 nanoparticles are sensitized by ATRA (all-trans-retinoic acid), which reveals that the surface of the particles become relatively smooth after dye sensitization. The size distribution of gyration radius of TiO_2 nanoparticles in the colloids M(R_g) has been successfully determined by the Shull－Roess method. The main peak of M(R_g) for the unsensitized TiO_2 colloid is located at 2.1nm, corresponding to a spherical diameter of 5.4nm, and this value for the ATRA sensitized TiO_2 increases to 2.4nm, indicating a spherical diameter of 6.4nm. Such a size enlargement of TiO_2 nanoparticles suggests that there is a coating of ATRA on the TiO_2 surface, supporting the view that a monolayer of the dye has been attached to the surface of the TiO_2 nanoparticle.     

Experimental study of conversion from atomic high—order harmonics to x—ray emissions

There are two physical phenomena in a strong laser intensity. One is the high-order harmonic emission; the other is x-ray emission from optical-field ionized plasmas. The experiment of conversion from high-order harmonics to x-ray emissions was given with a 105fs Ti:sapphire laser by adjusting laser intensities. The ingredient in plasma was investigated by the numerical simulations.Our experimental results suggested that the free electrons have detrimental effects on harmonic generation but are favourable for x-ray emission from optical-field ionized plasmas. If we want to obtain more intense harmonic signals as a coherent light source in the soft x-ray region, we must avoid the production of free electrons in plasmas. At the same time, if we want to observe x-rays for the development of high-repetition-rate table-top soft x-ray lasers, we should strip all atoms in the plasmas to a necessary ionized stage by the optical-field-ionization in the field of a high-intensity laser pulse.

Synchrotron small angle X-ray scattering study on the conformation of polystyrene in compressed CO2-toluene mixture

Synchrotron small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) was performed to investigate the effect of dissolved CO2 in toluene on the conformation of polystyrene (PS) in the solution. It has been found that the second virial coefficient A2 and the radius of gyration Rg decrease with the increasing antisolvent CO2 pressure. The scattering intensity of PS chain followed l(h)∞h-αunder different antisolvent pressures (0, 0.6, 1.5, 2.4, 3.3, and 4.2 MPa), suggesting that the PS chain has self-similar structure behavior or a fractal structure in the presence of antisolvent CO2.All this reveals a large effect of antisolvent pressure or the solubility of CO2 in the solution on PS structure. The fractal dimensions increase with the increasing antisolvent pressure, indicating that the polymer chain changes from a swollen coil into a rather dense globule in the course of adding antisolvent CO2.
