The guided thermal neutron beam at 100 MW Dhruva research reactor facility of Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) was used to carry out prompt gamma-ray neutron activation analysis (PGNAA). The prompt k0-factors have been determined for the isotopes of the elements H, B, K, Co, Cu, Ca, Ti, Cr, Cd, Ba, Hg and Gd with respect to 1951 keV gamma-line of 36Cl. The prompt k0-factors for H, Cl and Cu were also measured with respect to the 1381 keV gamma-line of 49Ti. Different samples like NH4Cl, Ti metal, cobalt chloride and other stoichiometric compounds and pure metals were used for this purpose. Prompt gamma-rays were accumulated using a 22% HPGe detector connected to a PC based 8k MCA in single mode counting. The energy calibration in the range of 100–8500 keV was carried out using gamma-rays from 152Eu and 60Co, and the prompt gamma-rays from 36Cl whereas the absolute detection efficiency for this energy range was determined using 152Eu and prompt gamma-rays from 36Cl and 49Ti. 相似文献
Summary: Electrically conducting polypyrrole‐poly(ethylene oxide) (PPy‐PEO) composite nanofibers are fabricated via a two‐step process. First, FeCl3‐containing PEO nanofibers are produced by electrospinning. Second, the PEO‐FeCl3 electrospun fibers are exposed to pyrrole vapor for the synthesis of polypyrrole. The vapor phase polymerization occurs through the diffusion of pyrrole monomer into the nanofibers. The collected non‐woven fiber mat is composed of 96 ± 30 nm diameter PPy‐PEO nanofibers. FT‐IR, XPS, and conductivity measurements confirm polypyrrole synthesis in the nanofiber.

High purity semi-insulating 4H SiC single crystals have potential applications for room temperature radiation detectors because of the wide band gap and radiation hardness. To control carrier lifetime, a key parameter for high performance radiation detectors, it is important to understand the nature of the deep traps in this material. For this purpose, we have successfully applied thermally stimulated current (TSC) and high temperature resistivity measurements to investigate deep level centers in semi-insulating 4H SiC samples grown by physical vapor transport. High temperature resistivity measurements showed that the resistivity at elevated temperatures is controlled by the deep level with an activation energy of 1.56 eV. The dominant traps revealed by TSC measurements were at 1.1-1.2 eV. The deep trap levels in 4H-SiC samples, the impurity and point defect nature of TSC traps peaked at ∼106 K (0.23 eV), ∼126 K (0.32 eV), ∼370 K (0.95 eV), ∼456 K (1.1-1.2 eV) are discussed. 相似文献
We show how phases enter in quantum mechanics as observable entities, in spite of the fact that physical states are represented by rays; in particular the Berry phase for closed loops and the phase difference between the two paths in the two-slit experiment stem from a common origin.1.

An efficient method for the synthesis of 6,11‐dihydro[2]benzoxepino[4,3‐b]pyridine derivatives via Pd(0) catalyzed intramolecular reductive Heck cyclization is reported. The method offers the regioselective and stereoselective synthesis of highly functionalized pyridine‐fused benzoxepine derivatives in 75–85% yields under mild conditions. Chemoselective Sonogashira coupling is utilized for the synthesis of cyclization precursors. The stereochemistry of the exocyclic double bond of 6,11‐dihydro[2]benzoxepino[4,3‐b]pyridine derivatives is confirmed from single crystal X‐ray diffraction. The absence of N–Pd(II) interaction results in a reverse stereochemistry of the exocyclic double bond of dibenzoxepine derivative. 相似文献
Intracellular ADP-ribosyltransferases catalyze mono- and poly-ADP-ribosylation and affect a broad range of biological processes. The mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase PARP10 is involved in signaling and DNA repair. Previous studies identified OUL35 as a selective, cell permeable inhibitor of PARP10. We have further explored the chemical space of OUL35 by synthesizing and investigating structurally related analogs. Key synthetic steps were metal-catalyzed cross-couplings and functional group modifications. We identified 4-(4-cyanophenoxy)benzamide and 3-(4-carbamoylphenoxy)benzamide as PARP10 inhibitors with distinct selectivities. Both compounds were cell permeable and interfered with PARP10 toxicity. Moreover, both revealed some inhibition of PARP2 but not PARP1, unlike clinically used PARP inhibitors, which typically inhibit both enzymes. Using crystallography and molecular modeling the binding of the compounds to different ADP-ribosyltransferases was explored regarding selectivity. Together, these studies define additional compounds that interfere with PARP10 function and thus expand our repertoire of inhibitors to further optimize selectivity and potency. 相似文献
