空气开关等离子体干涉条纹图像的处理

利用Mach-Zehnder干涉仪测量了空气开关中等离子体电子密度分布,使用高速分幅相机拍摄记录不同时延下的干涉条纹图像。针对实验获得的干涉条纹图像的特点,提出了一种首先进行频域FFT滤波去噪,然后进行空域二值化、细化的处理方法。该方法能够很好的消除图像噪声的影响,提取出单像素的亮条纹中心线,从而能够准确读取条纹坐标信息,再通过对干涉条纹偏移量进行Abel逆变换,得到等离子体电子密度分布。     

Decomposition of small diagonals and Chow rings of hypersurfaces and Calabi–Yau complete intersections

On the one hand, for a general Calabi–Yau complete intersection X$X$, we establish a decomposition, up to rational equivalence, of the small diagonal in X×X×X$X\times X\times X$, from which we deduce that any decomposable 0-cycle of degree 0 is in fact rationally equivalent to 0, up to torsion. On the other hand, we find a similar decomposition of the smallest diagonal in a higher power of a hypersurface, which provides us an analogous result on the multiplicative structure of its Chow ring.

In Situ Photocatalytically Heterostructured ZnOAg Nanoparticle Composites as Effective Cathode‐Modifying Layers for Air‐Processed Polymer Solar Cells

A heterostructured semiconductor–metal ZnO?Ag nanoparticle (NP) composite was constructed through a straightforward photocatalytic strategy by using UV irradiation of ZnO NPs and an aqueous solution of Ag precursor. The ZnO?Ag NP composites serve as an effective cathode‐modifying layer in polymer solar cells (PSCs) with increased short‐circuit current density owing to the light‐trapping effect, and improved optical and electrical conductivity properties compared with pure ZnO NPs. The Ag NPs, which are photodeposited in situ on ZnO NPs, can act as effective antennas for incident light to maximize light harvesting and minimize radiative decay or nonradiative losses, consequently resulting in the enhanced photogeneration of excitons in PSCs. Systematic photoelectron and ‐physical investigations confirm that heterostructured ZnO?Ag NPs can significantly improve charge separation, transport, and collection, as well as lower charge recombination at the cathode interface, leading to a 14.0 % improvement in air‐processed device power conversion efficiency. In addition, this processable, cost‐effective, and scalable approach is compatible with roll‐to‐roll manufacturing of large‐scale PSCs.     

Single-slit diffraction of the arbitrary vector beams

We present the single-slit diffraction of the arbitrary vector fields with different parameters m, n, and φ0theoretically and experimentally. The single slit covers the polarization singularity in the center and therefore the influence of the polarization singularity on the diffraction fringes is analyzed. The experimental results which agree well with the simulation results show that the total intensity of the diffraction field is related only to the topological charge m, but the polarization distribution of the diffraction field is related to all the parameters m, n, and φ0. Therefore, the diffraction patterns allow to determine all the parameters of the arbitrary vector fields.     

Spectrochemical analysis of powder using 355 nm Nd-YAG laser-induced low-pressure plasma

The applicability of spectrochemical analysis of minute amounts of powder samples was investigated using an ultraviolet Nd-YAG laser (355 nm) and low-pressure ambient air. A large variety of chemical powder samples of different composition were employed in the experiment. These included a mixture of copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate, zinc sulfide, and chromium(III) sulfate n-hydrate powders, baby powder, cosmetic powders, gold films, zinc supplement tablet, and muds and soils from different areas. The powder samples were prepared by pulverizing the original samples to an average size of around 30 μm in order to trap them in the tiny micro holes created on the surface of the quartz subtarget. It was demonstrated that in all cases studied, good quality spectra were obtained with low background, free from undesirable contamination by the subtarget elements and featuring ppm sensitivity. A further measurement revealed a linear calibration curve with zero intercept. These results clearly show the potential application of this technique for practical qualitative and quantitative spectrochemical analysis of powder samples in various fields of study and investigation.     

Growth of iron cobalt oxides by atomic layer deposition

Thin films of iron cobalt oxides with spinel-type structure are made by the atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique using Fe(thd)3 (Hthd = 2,2,6,6-tetramethylheptane-3,5-dione), Co(thd)2, and ozone as precursors. Pulse parameters for ALD-type growth are established and such growth can be achieved at deposition temperatures between 185 and 310 degrees C. Films have been deposited on amorphous soda-lime glass and single-crystalline substrates of Si(100), MgO(100), and alpha-Al2O3(001) which all provide crystalline films, but with various orientations and crystallite sizes. Application of an external magnetic field during the film growth does not influence film growth characteristics (growth rate, crystallinity, topography etc.). Magnetization data are reported for phase-pure films of spinel-type structure with composition Fe2CoO4.

Urinary excretion study of coenzyme Q10 in rats by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry

A method based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) applying atmospheric pressure chemical ionization in the positive ion mode is developed for the determination of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in rat urine. The assay involves the extraction of crude urine, fast liquid chromatography on a Waters Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column (1.7 microm, 1.0 x 50 mm), and selected ion monitoring detection using mass transition. The calibration range is found to be 0.05-25 microg/mL, with the lower limit of quantitation of 0.05 microg/mL. Intra- and inter-day precision (relative standard deviation) for CoQ10 in rat urine range from 0.7% to 15%, and accuracy expressed in recovery rates in urine is between 83% and 118%. The recovery of this method is found to be between 80% and 95% at three concentrations. The total cumulative recovery of CoQ10 is 1.16 +/- 1.05% (percentage of dose intake, n = 4) from rat urine collected over 30 h after oral administration of the drug. The UPLC-MS method described allows the quick determination of CoQ10 in rat urine with good precision and accuracy. It is suitable for further excretion studies of CoQ10 in animals.
