Imaging Photodissociation Dynamics of MgO at 193 nm

In this work, we used time-sliced ion velocity imaging to study the photodissociation dynamics of MgO at \mbox{193 nm}. Three dissociation pathways are found through the speed and angular distributions of magnesium. One pathway is the one-photon excitation of MgO(X\begin{document}$^1\Sigma^+$\end{document}) to MgO(G\begin{document}$^1\Pi$\end{document}) followed by spin-orbit coupling between the G\begin{document}$^1\Pi$\end{document}, 3\begin{document}$^3\Pi$\end{document} and 1\begin{document}$^5\Pi$\end{document} states, and finally dissociated to the Mg(\begin{document}$^3$\end{document}P\begin{document}$_\textrm{u}$\end{document})+O(\begin{document}$^3$\end{document}P\begin{document}$_\textrm{g}$\end{document}) along the 1\begin{document}$^5\Pi$\end{document} surface. The other two pathways are one-photon absorption of MgO(A\begin{document}$^1\Pi$\end{document}) state to MgO(G\begin{document}$^1\Pi$\end{document}) and MgO(4\begin{document}$^1\Pi$\end{document}) state to dissociate into Mg(\begin{document}$^3$\end{document}P\begin{document}$_\textrm{u}$\end{document})+O(\begin{document}$^3$\end{document}P\begin{document}$_\textrm{g}$\end{document}) and Mg(\begin{document}$^1$\end{document}S\begin{document}$_\textrm{g}$\end{document})+O(\begin{document}$^1$\end{document}S\begin{document}$_\textrm{g}$\end{document}), respectively. The anisotropy parameters of the dissociation pathways are related to the lifetime of the vibrational energy levels and the coupling of rotational and vibronic spin-orbit states. The total kinetic energy analysis gives \begin{document}$D_0$\end{document}(Mg\begin{document}$-$\end{document}O)=21645\begin{document}$\pm$\end{document}50 cm\begin{document}$^{-1}$\end{document}.     

Fast Fabrication and Judgement of Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy-Active Tips

The quality of the scanning tip is crucial for tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) experiments towards large signal enhancement and high spatial resolution. In this work, we report a controllable fabrication method to prepare TERS-active tips by modifying the tip apex at the atomic scale, and propose two important criteria to in-situ judge the tip's TERS activity for tip-enhanced Raman measurements. One criterion is based on the downshift of the first image potential state to monitor the coupling between the far-field incident laser and near-field plasmon; the other is based on the appearance of the low-wavenumber Raman peaks associated with an atomistic protrusion at the tip apex to judge the coupling efficiency of emissions from the near field to the far field. This work provides an effective method to quickly fabricate and judge TERS-active tips before real TERS experiments on target molecules and other materials, which is believed to be instrumental for the development of TERS and other tip-enhanced spectroscopic techniques.

助剂P对Ni-Al-O催化剂乙烷氧化脱氢性能的影响

通过一锅水热法制备了一系列磷改性Ni-Al-O催化剂(P_x-Ni-Al-O),以O₂为氧化剂,评价了系列催化剂的乙烷氧化脱氢制乙烯性能。结果表明,助剂P的掺入不仅可以减小NiO晶粒的尺寸,还影响了Ni和Al之间的相互作用。在350～475℃的温度范围内,P改性Ni-Al-O催化剂上乙烯选择性均高于未改性的催化剂,且适量P的引入还可以提高乙烷转化率。当反应温度为475℃时,P_0.15-Ni-Al-O催化剂上乙烯选择性和收率分别为61.4%和31.9%。此外,P改性后的催化剂表现出较强的抗积碳性能,连续反应22 h不失活。     

Influence of Atomistic Protrusion on the Substrate on Molecular Luminescence in Tunnel Junctions

Scanning tunneling microscope (STM) induced luminescence can be used to study various optoelectronic phenomena of single molecules and to understand the fundamental photophysical mechanisms involved. To clearly observe the molecule-specific luminescence, it is important to improve the quantum efficiency of molecules in the metallic nanocavity. In this work, we investigate theoretically the influence of an atomic-scale protrusion on the substrate on the emission properties of a point dipole oriented parallel to the substrate in a silver plasmonic nanocavity by electromagnetic simulations. We find that an atomic-scale protrusion on the substrate can strongly enhance the quantum efficiency of a horizontal dipole emitter, similar to the situation with a protrusion at the tip apex. We also consider a double-protrusion junction geometry in which there is an atomic-scale protrusion on both the tip and the substrate, and find that this geometry does provide significantly enhanced emission compared with the protrusion-free situation, but does not appear to improve the quantum efficiency compared to the mono-protrusion situation either at the tip apex or on the substrate. These results are believed to be instructive for future STM induced electroluminescence and photoluminescence studies on single molecules.     

Chemoselective hydrogenolysis of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol to 1,5-pentanediol over Ir-MoOx/Si02 catalyst

In this work, MoOx promoted Ir/SiO2 catalysts were prepared and used for the selective hydrogenolysis of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol （THFA） to 1,5-pentanediol in a continuous flow reactor. The effects of different noble metals （Ir, Pt, Pd, Ru, Rh）, supports and Ir contents were screened. Among the investigated catalysts, 4 wt%Ir-MoOx/SiO2 with a Mo/Ir atomic ratio of 0.13 exhibited the best catalytic performance. The synergy between Ix particles and the partially reduced isolated MoOx species attached on them is essential for the excellent catalytic performance of Ix-MoOx/SiO2. The catalyst exhibited a better hydrogenolysis efficiency of THFA with the selectivity of 1,5-pentanediol of 65%-74% at a conversion of THFA of 70%-75% when the initial THFA concentration is ranging from 20 wt% and 40 wt%. And higher system pressure was also in favor of the conversion of THFA. During a stability test, the conversion of THFA and 1,5-pentanediol yield over Ix-MoOz/SiO2 decreased with reaction time, which can be explained by the leaching of Mo species during the reaction.

在原子尺度上构建模型,采用密度泛函理论结合准谐波近似研究了氮化硅新相（P6和P6＇相）的点阵常数、弹性常数和弹性模量. 并使用β-Si3N4作基准材料来测试计算结果的准确性. 研究发现β-Si3N4的晶胞常数和弹性常数与实验值吻合相当好. 研究了P6和P6＇相在30～55 GPa的各向异性因子、脆性和力学稳定性,结果表明两相属于金属性和脆性材料,且晶体的脆性和各向异性都随着压强的升高而增大. β相在40 GPa和300 K时会转变成P6＇相. 当压强继续升高到53．2GPa时,P6＇相又转化成δ相．同时研究了氮化硅的热容、体积和体模量等性质随温度的变化规律．     

Pt（111）电极上O2与OHad的吸脱附及氧还原反应动力学

研究了Pt（111）电极在0．1mol／LHClO4溶液中O2吸附与OHad脱附及氧还原反应的动力学．研究发现OHad的可逆吸脱附速率很快;在氧还原的动力学或动力学与传质混合控制区,恒电位下氧还原的电流随反应时间缓慢衰减,在转速较大,扫速较慢的情形下正向扫描过程中氧还原的电流总是明显低于逆向扫描的电流;Pt／0．1mol／LHClO4从无O2切换到O2饱和时,其开路电位迅速从0．9V增加到1．0V．结果表明,Pt（111）电极上O2解离生成OHad速率很快,ORR过程中OHad会在表面缓慢积累,氧还原反应的动力学主要由反应 OHad＋H^＋＋e→←H2O的平衡热力学决定．     

室温下碘催化直接构建硫化吡唑啉酮

含硫化合物在有机合成、药物化学以及材料化学等领域具有重要的作用.到目前为止,科学家已经在C-S键的构建领域进行了很多工作.在构建C-S键的众多方法中,金属催化的C-S键合成反应是一类很重要的反应,但是此方法存在着催化剂对空气敏感、环境不友好等问题.因此,发展无金属催化的C-S键构建反应受到了人们越来越多的重视.基于我们在碘催化相关反应方面的研究,本文报道了一种碘催化的硫化吡唑啉酮类化合物的合成方法.我们选用3-甲基-1-苯基-2-吡唑啉-5-酮与二苯二硫醚为底物进行条件筛选实验,发现I2(10%)为催化剂,二氧六环为溶剂,H2O2为氧化剂为最优化的实验条件,目标产物硫化吡唑啉酮最高产率为88%.在最优化的反应条件下,我们尝试了带有不同官能团(NO2,Cl,OH等)的吡唑啉酮与二硫醚的反应,均能以较高产率得到目标产物.当含有杂环的二硫醚(2,2'-二硫二吡啶)作为反应底物时,也能以中等以上的产率得到相应的目标产物.另外还进行了对比试验,例如在反应体系中加入自由基捕获剂TEMPO,反应产率会大大降低,说明反应中应该有自由基中间体生成;如果反应体系中不加碘,则反应产率为零;如果反应体系中不加H2O2,则反应产率由88%降低至48%,说明碘和H2O2在反应中都起到了重要作用.通过以上对比试验,提出了可能的反应机理:首先,二硫醚发生均裂反应生成苯硫基自由基,然后苯硫基自由基与碘反应生成亲电的PhSI活性中间体,PhSI与异构化的吡唑啉酮发生亲电取代反应,生成目标产物硫化吡唑啉酮和HI,HI可以被H2O2氧化生成I2继续参与下一轮催化反应.以3-甲基-1-苯基-2-吡唑啉-5-酮与二苯二硫醚为底物,我们对此反应进行了放大试验,结果显示反应产率几乎没有降低,这为此反应的大规模应用奠定了基础.在此,我们发展了一种简单高效的合成硫化吡唑啉酮的反应,此方法无需金属催化剂,利用常见的碘为催化剂就可以以较高的产率得到目标产物.为合成含硫化合物提供了一种新的方法.
