Diamond-like carbon films are deposited on silicon substrates at different substrate bias using ECR-CVD technique. Raman spectroscopic studies show the presence of broad G and D peaks. In contrast to the position of D peak, the G peak shows a systematic red-shift with increase in the bias voltage. From the analysis it is found that an increase in bias voltage decreases the sp2 cluster diameter. Furthermore, two additional Raman peaks at around 690 and 880 cm?1 are also observed. These peaks, forbidden in the first order Raman scattering, arise due to the breakdown of phonon selection rule in graphitic nanoclusters. 相似文献
In the present frame of work, Macrophomina phaseolina is encapsulated in silica matrices at various concentrations by low temperature sol-gel technique using tetraethylorthosilicate
(TEOS) as precursor. The optical and photophysical properties of these samples have been studied by second harmonics of Nd:YAG
laser at 532 nm. UV-visible absorption spectra of samples have been recorded and it is found that the absorption increases
with increase in concentration of fungus. Further, a decrease in output transmission intensity of the laser has been observed
with increase in fungus concentration. The temporal response of these samples has also been examined. The results show that
the fungus concentration can be measured within ∼15–20 min. This method of optical sensing of fungus in test sample is faster
than other techniques, such as the conventional colorimetric method which takes about 1 h. 相似文献
Uricase purified from 20-day-old leaves of cowpea was immobilized on to epoxy resin membrane with 80% retention of initial activity of free enzyme and a conjugation yield of 0.056 mg/cm2. The uricase epoxy resin bioconjugate membrane was mounted over the sensing part of the combined electrode of ‘Aqualytic’ dissolved O2 (DO) meter to construct a uric acid biosensor. The biosensor measures the depletion of dissolved O2 during the oxidation of uric acid by immobilized uricase, which is directly proportional to uric acid concentration. The biosensor showed optimum response within 10-12 s at a pH 8.5 and 35 °C. A linear relationship was found between uric acid concentration from 0.025 to 0.1 mM and O2 (mg/l) consumed. The biosensor was employed for measurement of uric acid in serum. The mean value of uric acid in serum was 4.92 mg/dl in apparently healthy males and 3.11 mg/dl in apparently healthy females. The mean analytic recoveries of added uric acid in reaction mixture (8.9 and 9.8 mg/dl) were 93.6 ± 2.34 and 87.18 ± 3.17% respectively. The within and between batch CVs were <6.5 and <5.0%, respectively. The serum uric acid values obtained by present method and standard enzymic colorimetric method, showed a good correlation (r = 0.996) and regression equation being y = 0.984x + 0.0674. Among the various metabolites tested only, glucose (11%), urea (38%), NaCl (25%) and cholesterol (13%) and ascorbic acid (56%) caused decrease, while, MgSO4 and CaCl2 had no effect on immobilized enzyme. The enzyme electrode showed only 32% decrease during its use for 100 times over a period of 60 days at 4 °C. 相似文献
Three new glutinane-type triterpenes, 19α-glutin-5-en-19-ol (1), 2β,15α,21β-glutin-11-ene-2,15,21-triol (2), and 2β,19α-glutin-7,21-diene-2,19-diol (3), were isolated from the stem bark of Euonymus hamiltonianus. Their structures were determined by 1D and 2D NMR along with MS and IR.

Novel and synthetically important bis[4-dimethylamino-2-pyrimidyl] dichalcogenides (S, Se, Te) have been prepared and characterized with the help of elemental analysis and various spectroscopic techniques. The methodology employs hydrazine hydrate in dimethylformamide to reduce elemental chalcogen to generate the dichalcogenide anions, E22− (E=S, Se, Te), followed by reaction with 2,4-dichloropyrimidine to afford bis[4-dimethylamino-2-pyrimidyl] dichalcogenides in good yield. It further exploits the additional compositional degree of freedom available in mixed surfactant solution to allow solubilization and stabilization of bis[4-dimethylamino-2-pyrimidyl] diselenide in microemulsion media. 相似文献
X-Band electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies of VO(2+) ions in l-asparagine monohydrate single crystals have been done at room temperature. Detailed EPR analysis indicates the presence of two magnetically inequivalent VO(2+) sites. Both the vanadyl complexes are found to take up interstitial position. The angular variation of the EPR spectra in three planes ab, bc and ca are used to determine principal g and A tensors. For the two sites the spin Hamiltonian parameters are, site I: g(x)=1.9633, g(y)=2.0274, g(z)=1.9797, A(x)=88, A(y)=61, A(z)=161x10(-4)cm(-1); site II: g(x)=1.9627, g(y)=1.9880, g(z)=1.9425, A(x)=90, A(y)=66, A(z)=167x10(-4)cm(-1). The optical absorption study is also carried out at room temperature and absorption bands are assigned to various transitions. The theoretical band positions are obtained using energy expressions and a good agreement is found with the experimental values. By correlating EPR and optical data different molecular orbital coefficients are evaluated and the nature of bonding in the crystal is discussed. 相似文献
Porous metal thin films have high potential for use in applications such as catalysis, electrical contacts, plasmonics, as well as energy storage and conversion. Structuring metal thin films on the nanoscale to generate high surface areas poses an interesting challenge as metals have high surface energy. In this communication, we demonstrate direct access to nanostructured metal nanoparticle hybrid thin films with high nanoparticle loadings through spin coating of a mixture of block copolymer and ligand stabilized platinum and palladium nanoparticles. Plasma cleaning to remove the organics results in a conductive metal thin film. We expect that the methods described here can be generalized to other metals, mixtures of metal nanoparticles, and intermetallics.
We have studied spin-resolved correlations in the warm-dense homogeneous electron gas by determining the linear density and spin-density response functions, within the dynamical self-consistent mean-field theory of Singwi et al. The calculated spin-resolved pair-correlation function gσσ′(r) is compared with the recent restricted path-integral Monte Carlo (RPIMC) simulations due to Brown et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 146405 (2013)], while interaction energy Eint and exchange-correlation free energy Fxc with the RPIMC and very recent ab initio quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations by Dornheim et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 117, 156403 (2016)]. g↑↓(r) is found to be in good agreement with the RPIMC data, while a mismatch is seen in g↑↑(r) at small r where it becomes somewhat negative. As an interesting result, it is deduced that a non-monotonic T-dependence of g(0) is driven primarily by g↑↓(0). Our results of Eint and Fxc exhibit an excellent agreement with the QMC study due to Dornheim et al., which deals with the finite-size correction quite accurately. We observe, however, a visible deviation of Eint from the RPIMC data for high densities (~8% at rs = 1). Further, we have extended our study to the fully spin-polarized phase. Again, with the exception of high density region, we find a good agreement of Eint with the RPIMC data. This points to the need of settling the problem of finite-size correction in the spin-polarized phase also. Interestingly, we also find that the thermal effects tend to oppose spatial localization as well as spin polarization of electrons. 相似文献
