Metal nanoparticles have been combined with magnet metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) to afford new materials that demonstrate an efficient catalytic degradation, high stability, and excellent reusability in areas of catalysis because of their exceptionally high surface areas and structural diversity. Magnetic M _x O _y @N-C (M = Fe, Co, Mn) nanocrystals were formed on nitrogen-doped carbon surface by using 8-hydroxyquinoline as a C/N precursor. The Co@N-C, MnO@N-C, and Fe/Fe₂O₃@N-C catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), N₂ adsorption/desorption, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The catalytic performances of catalysts were thoroughly investigated in the oxidation of aniline solution based on sulfate radicals (SO₄ ^?.) toward Fenton-like reaction. Magnetic M _x O _y @N-C exhibits an unexpectedly high catalytic activity in the degradation of aniline in water. A high magnetic M _x O _y @N-C catalytic activity was observed after the evaluation by aniline degradation in water. Aniline degradation was found to follow the first-order kinetics, and as a result, various metals significantly affected the structures and performances of the catalysts, and their catalytic activity followed the order of Co > Mn > Fe. The nanoparticles displayed good magnetic separation under the magnetic field.

Synthesis and luminescent properties of hexagonal BaZnSiO4:Eu2+ phosphor

A green-emitting phosphor of hexagonal BaZnSiO₄:Eu²⁺ was prepared by a combustion-assisted synthesis method and an efficient green emission from ultraviolet to visible light was observed. The luminescence and crystallinity were investigated by using luminescence spectrometry and X-ray diffractometry. In the hexagonal structure of BaZnSiO₄:Eu²⁺ phosphor, Eu²⁺ ions occupy three different lattice sites by substitution for Ba²⁺ ions. Eu²⁺ ions on Ba (1) and Ba (2) sites gave emissions at about 505 nm while Eu²⁺ ions on Ba (3) sites showed an emission band at 403 nm. The excitation spectrum is a broad band extending from 260 to 465 nm, which matches the emission of ultraviolet light-emitting diodes. The critical quenching concentration of Eu²⁺ in BaZnSiO₄:Eu²⁺ phosphor is about 0.05 mol. The value of the critical transfer distance is calculated as 10.97 Å. The corresponding concentration quenching mechanism is verified to be the electric multipole–multipole interaction. The CIE coordinates of the optimized sample $\mathrm{Ba}_{0.95}\mathrm{ZnSiO}_{4}{:}\mathrm{Eu}_{0.05}^{2+}$ were calculated as (x,y)=(0.172,0.463).     

Adsorption of 2‐amino‐5‐cyanopyridine on a gold surface as probed by surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy

The adsorption of 2‐amino‐5‐cyanopyridine (2‐ACP) was investigated in solution at different pH values by i n situ surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy combined with the electrochemical method. The assignments of the main bands were first performed on the basis of the spectral features of similar compounds and with the help of density functional theory calculations. The results revealed that the adsorption and the interfacial structure of 2‐ACP on the Au electrode depended on the applied potential and the pH values of the solution. In the natural solution, 2‐ACP was adsorbed on the surface with a vertical orientation by the CN group from − 0.4 to − 1.0 V, whereas in the − 0.4 to 0.8 V range, the N atom of the pyridine ring was bound to the surface. A transition region for the reorientation of the two adsorption modes was observed from − 0.8 to − 0.4 V. A flat configuration was preferred at an extremely negative potential. A similar surface adsorption behavior was observed in the alkali environment, while the Stark effect slope decreased because of the adsorption of OH⁻. Due to the protonation of N atom in the acidic solution, the potential region for the coexistence of two configurations ranged from − 0.4 to 0.2 V. Additionally, a similar adsorption configuration was proposed on the Au colloids at various pH values. The results revealed that the adsorption behavior became more complex on colloidal surfaces than that on a rigid electrode surface. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

HIAF BRing及高能外靶实验终端的辐射屏蔽设计

强流重离子加速器（HIAF）是中国科学院近代物理研究所自主研制的一台高能强流重离子加速器,它可以实现p到U的全离子加速。为了保证HIAF运行时的辐射安全,针对该装置的增强器（BRing）及高能外靶实验终端,利用蒙特卡洛程序FLUKA及外推法计算得到了加速p,C及U三种离子时所需的辐射屏蔽。结果表明,加速质子时所需屏蔽厚度最大,并以此为依据给出了全地下结构的屏蔽设计。在此基础上,提出了一种估算高能质子/重离子加速器束流均匀损失时横向屏蔽厚度的方法。结果显示,估算结果与FLUKA计算结果符合较好,验证了该方法的有效性和准确性。High Intensity heavy-ion Accelerator Facility (HIAF) is designed by the Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, which can accelerate particles from proton up to uranium. To guarantee the radiation safety of HIAF during operation, the FLUKA code and extrapolation method were adopted to calculate the shielding thickness. The calculations were based on proton, carbon and uranium particles when losing on the Booster Ring (BRing) and the high-energy experimental terminal. The results indicate that the shielding thickness required for accelerating protons was the largest. Basing on the results, a method for estimating the lateral shielding of a high-energy proton/heavy-ion accelerator was proposed. A good agreement shows between the estimated results and the FLUKA calculated results, the validity and accuracy of the method were verified.     

Universal critical properties of the Eulerian bond-cubic model

We investigate the Eulerian bond-cubic model on the square lattice by means of Monte Carlo simulations,using an efficient cluster algorithm and a finite-size scaling analysis.The critical points and four critical exponents of the model are determined for several values of n.Two of the exponents are fractal dimensions,which are obtained numerically for the first time.Our results are consistent with the Coulomb gas predictions for the critical O(n) branch for n < 2 and the results obtained by previous transfer matrix calculations.For n=2,we find that the thermal exponent,the magnetic exponent and the fractal dimension of the largest critical Eulerian bond component are different from those of the critical O(2) loop model.These results confirm that the cubic anisotropy is marginal at n=2 but irrelevant for n < 2.     

Compound buried layer SOI high voltage device with a step buried oxide

A silicon-on-insulator (SOI) high performance lateral double-diffusion metal oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) on a compound buried layer (CBL) with a step buried oxide (SBO CBL SOI) is proposed.The step buried oxide locates holes in the top interface of the upper buried oxide (UBO) layer.Furthermore,holes with high density are collected in the interface between the polysilicon layer and the lower buried oxide (LBO) layer.Consequently,the electric fields in both the thin LBO and the thick UBO are enhanced by these holes,leading to an improved breakdown voltage.The breakdown voltage of the SBO CBL SOI LDMOS increases to 847 V from the 477 V of a conventional SOI with the same thicknesses of SOI layer and the buried oxide layer.Moreover,SBO CBL SOI can also reduce the self-heating effect.
