硫代碱基与单态氧反应速率常数的时间分辨光谱测定

硫代碱基作为一类免疫抑制性药物被广泛关注,由于硫原子的取代,硫代碱基可以吸收UVA波段紫外光,并通过系间窜越至激发三重态敏化氧气生成广泛应用于光动力学治疗的活性氧物质单态氧(~1O_2).然而,硫代碱基容易与自身敏化产生的~1O_2氧化发生反应,导致光毒性.在已有关于硫代碱基与~1O_2反应机理的研究基础上,本文采用瞬态光谱方法直接测得~1O_2在1270 nm处磷光信号的衰减动力学,得到硫代碱基与单态氧反应的速率常数.通过比较6-硫代鸟嘌呤、4-硫代尿嘧啶、2,4-二硫代尿嘧啶分别在水、乙腈以及二者混合溶剂中与~1O_2的反应,发现硫代碱基与单态氧反应速率常数受溶剂的极性影响.随着溶剂极性增大,反应速率常数则减小.此外,通过对比研究,发现硫代嘧啶类碱基与~1O_2的反应速率小于硫代嘌呤类碱基,说明在光动力学治疗中以硫代嘧啶类药物作为光敏剂是较为合适的选择.

The temperature dependence of the band edge energy in calcium barium niobate

The temperature dependent band edge energy of the novel tungsten bronze type calcium barium niobate (CBN) is measured over a temperature range from 80 K to 573 K. CBN has been under investigation for serveral years and is believed to be a promising material for future applications. Czochralski‐grown, colorless single crystals from the congruently melting composition with a calcium content of 0.281 were used. A numerical fit has been applied, comparing the results of CBN to those of the well known relaxor ferroelectric strontium barium niobate (SBN). The band edge energy of CBN was found to be higher than in SBN over the whole temperature range. (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

青蒿素光化学合成中二氢青蒿酸与单线态氧反应的动力学研究

青蒿素是一种优异的抗疟药,广泛用于临床医学. 但由于青蒿素天然来源的限制,青蒿素的化学合成一直受到高度关注. 二氢青蒿酸是合成青蒿素的关键前体. 二氢青蒿酸与单线态氧反应形成过氧化物是青蒿素光化学制备中的关键步骤,制约着青蒿素化学合成的产率. 然而关于二氢青蒿酸与单线态氧反应的重要动力学信息并未有报道. 本文通过光敏化法产生单线态氧,研究二氢青蒿酸与单线态氧之间的反应速率常数. 通过直接检测单线态氧在1270 nm处的发光衰减动力学,得出单线态氧与二氢青蒿酸在不同溶剂中的反应速率常数分别为：在CCl₄中为1.81×10⁵ (mol/L)^-1·s^-1,在CH₃CN中为5.69×10⁵ (mol/L)^-1·s^-1,DMSO中为3.27×10⁶ (mol/L)^-1·s^-1. 发现在三种溶剂中二氢青蒿酸与单线态氧的反应速率常数随着溶剂极性的增加而增加. 这些结果为优化青蒿素光化学合成的实验条件提供了基础知识,有助于提高青蒿素的合成效率.     

H NMR study of the phase transitions of trissarcosine calcium chloride single crystals at low temperature

The ¹H NMR line-width and spin-lattice relaxation time T₁ of TSCC single crystals were studied. Variations in the temperature dependence of the spin-lattice relaxation time were observed near 65 and 130 K, indicating drastic alterations of the spin dynamics at the phase transition temperatures. The changes in the temperature dependence of T₁ near 65 and 130 K correspond to phase transitions of the crystal. The anomalous decrease in T₁ around 130 K is due to the critical slowing down of the soft mode. The abrupt change in relaxation time at 65 K is associated with a structural phase transition. The proton spin-lattice relaxation time of this crystal also has a minimum value in the vicinity of 185 K, which is governed by the reorientation of the CH₃ groups of the sarcosine molecules. From this result, we conclude that the two phase transitions at 65 and 130 K can be discerned from abrupt variations in the ¹H NMR relaxation behavior, and that ¹H nuclei play important roles in the phase transitions of the TSCC single crystal.

Spectral dependence of photoinduced optical absorption in doped yttrium iron garnet single crystals

The photoinduced optical absorption α of doped yttrium iron garnets (YIG) is investigated. It is found that the optical absorption α at a wavelength of 1.1 μm depends on the wavelength of irradiating light in the range 0.6–1.9 μm. It is demonstrated that, in the Y₃Fe₅O₁₂ crystal with an acceptor Ba impurity, the photoinduced increase in α is due to the formation of Fe⁴⁺ ions in octahedral sites. The charge transfer occurs through photoexcitation of the ⁶ A _1g (⁶ S) → ⁴ T _1g (⁴ G) and ⁶ A _1g (⁶ S) → ⁴ T _2g (⁴ G) transitions of octahedral Fe³⁺ ions. In the crystal with a donor Si impurity, the increase in α is caused by the formation of Fe²⁺ ions upon photoionization of silicon. __________ Translated from Fizika Tverdogo Tela, Vol. 43, No. 7, 2001, pp. 1233–1235.

Dynamical Jahn-Teller distortion in single crystals of Cu(II) doped magnesium potassium phosphate hexahydrate: a variable temperature EPR study

Single crystal electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies on Cu(II)-doped magnesium potassium phosphate hexahydrate have been carried out at room temperature. The temperature dependence of g and A values has been obtained for the polycrystalline sample and the ground state is unambiguously identified. These results indicate the existence of a dynamic Jahn-Teller distortion for Cu(II) ion. The g and A tensor direction cosines are evaluated and compared with Mg-O directions, which confirms that Cu(II) enters substitutionally in the lattice.     

Anisotropy and temperature dependence of the spin-wave attenuation parameter in ferrite single crystals

Results are presented for ferromagnetic resonance in Mg-Mn and Li ferrites. The anisotropic part H_k of the spin-wave line width is defined as the difference between the spin-wave widths H_k as measured on a spherical specimen magnetized along [111] and [100] by parametric excitation of the spin waves by a longitudinal UHF magnetic field. The results are compared with the theory.Read at the All-Union Conference on Ferrites, Leningrad, 25 October 1963.     

On the temperature dependence of the visible emission in thallium doped KCl and KBr crystals

The visible emission of KBr : Tl and KCl : Tl crystals was measured in the temperature range 10–300 K, on excitation in the low-energy tails of the corresponding A-bands. The peculiar temperature dependence of the visible emission is explained in terms of absorption changes due to thermal broadening of the A₁-side band itself and due to the growing overlap of A₁-band with the A-band on warming. A quantitative analysis is given which enables the computation of some parameters of the A₁-side band.     

The temperature dependence of the edge emission of GaSe single crystals at high excitation levels

The temperature dependence of five edge emission lines of GaSe at high excitation levels has been investigated by using the second harmonic of a neodymium-glass laser. The following lines were indentified at 77.3K:hv_B = 2.102 ± 0.002 eV, annihilation of free excitons; hv_C = 2.082 ± 0.003 eV, Auger recombination of free excitons; hv_D = 2.072 ± 0.003 eV and hv_E = 2.055 ± 0.004 eV, annihilation of free excitons with emission of optical phonons (LO₁ = 31 meVandLO₂ = 45 meV, respectively); hv_G = 2.036 ± 0.004 eV, radiative recombination at indirect transition with emission of LO₁ phonons.     

The unoccupied electronic structure characterization of hydrothermally grown ThO2 single crystals

Single crystals of thorium dioxide ThO₂, grown by the hydrothermal growth technique, have been investigated by ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS), inverse photoemission spectroscopy (IPES), and L₃, M₃, M₄, and M₅ X‐ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES). The experimental band gap for large single crystals has been determined to be 6 eV to 7 eV, from UPS and IPES, in line with expectations. The combined UPS and IPES, place the Fermi level near the conduction band minimum, making these crystals n‐type, with extensive band tailing, suggesting an optical gap in the region of 4.8 eV for excitations from occupied to unoccupied edge states. Hybridization between the Th 6d/5f bands with O 2p is strongly implicated. (© 2014 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Investigation of nonlinear absorption in YAP and YAG single crystals doped with Co and co-doped with Si

Since our attempts to grow YAP:Co,Si non-linear absorbers have failed, we switched to Czochralski grown YAGs doped with the same ions. This time, however, the new material was found to exhibit excellent, non-linear absorption, which can be used directly in Q-switching elements in laser systems. In this work we report on technology of YAG single crystals doped with Co and Si, their optical properties, and, finally, on their non-linear absorption. An explanation on why the YAPs were found to be inefficient in non-linear absorption was also provided.     

Slip band formation and mobile dislocation density generation in high rate deformation of single fcc crystals

The mechanisms for the nucleation, thickening, and growth of crystallographic slip bands from the sub-nanoscale to the microscale are studied using three-dimensional dislocation dynamics. In the simulations, a single fcc crystal is strained along the [111] direction at three different high strain rates: 10⁴, 10⁵, and 10⁶?s^??1. Dislocation inertia and drag are included and the simulations were conducted with and without cross-slip. With cross-slip, slip bands form parallel to active (111) planes as a result of double cross-slip onto fresh glide planes within localized regions of the crystal. In this manner, fine nanoscale slip bands nucleate throughout the crystal, and, with further straining, build up to larger bands by a proposed self-replicating mechanism. It is shown that slip bands are regions of concentrated glide, high dislocation multiplication rates, and high dislocation velocities. Cross-slip increases in activity proportionally with the product of the total dislocation density and the square root of the applied stress. Effects of cross-slip on work hardening are attributed to the role of cross-slip on mobile dislocation generation, rather than slip band formation. A new dislocation density evolution law is presented for high rates, which introduces the mobile density, a state variable that is missing in most constitutive laws.
