Based on the modified formula of Rapini-Papoular, the equilibrium equation and boundary condition of the director have been obtained and the behaviour of the Fréedericksz transition at the threshold point has been studied for weak-anchoring nematic liquid crystal cells under external electric and magnetic fields with the methods of analytical derivation and numerical calculation. The results show that, except for the usual second-order transition, the first-order Fréedericksz transition can also be induced by a suitable surface anchoring technique for the liquid crystal cell given in the paper. The conditions for the existence of the first-order Fréedericksz transition are obtained. They are related to the material elastic coefficient k_{11}, k_{33} the thickness of the liquid crystal cell, the external electric field and the strength of surface anchoring, etc. 相似文献
TiO_2 nanocrystalline films were prepared on glass, ITO and p-Si substrates. Degradation of Rhodamine B was used to assess the photocatalytic activity of the films. It was found that photocatalytic activity of TiO2 films on ITO and p-Si are higher than that on glass, and the film grown on ITO is the best. In addition, crystalline phases and surface morphology of TiO_2films were also affected by different substrates. Surface Photovoltage Spectra was used to analyze surface states and energy levels of the films. Separation of photogenerate electrons and holes was promoted due to matching of the energy levels between TiO_2 films and ITO as well as p-Si. High photocatalytic activity was then obtained because more photogenerate electrons and holes took part in photocatalytic reaction on TiO_2 surfaces. 相似文献
O*-rings were introduced by Fuchs and recently characterized by Steinberg. A ring R is called O* if every partial order on R extends to a total order. We weaken the condition on the ordering of the ring by requiring that every partial order on R extends to an f-order. We call those rings F*-rings. We show that the two classes of rings coincide. 相似文献
Summary: A polymer‐iron oxide nanocomposite film has been successfully synthesized by using a microporous regenerated cellulose film as template and aqueous ferrous chloride as precursor. The nanocomposite film was investigated with XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, and VSM. The nanoparticles synthesized in situ were disk‐shaped with a mean diameter of ≈24 and thicknesses of 2.5–3.5 nm. For the first time, the nanodisks were well aligned in the cellulose matrix to form an ordered multibilayer structure by the shrinkage of the hybrid film while drying. The nanocomposite film displayed anisotropic magnetic properties as a result of the alignment of magnetic nanodisks. This work provides a novel and facile method for template synthesis of nanoparticles and aligned nanocomposites.
