里德伯电磁感应透明中的相位

本文在典型的里德伯电磁感应透明系统中研究弱探测场在相互作用原子系统中的传播特性,重点关注基于偶极阻塞效应的探测场相位的合作光学非线性行为.通过与探测场透射率和光子关联作对比,发现相位的光学响应具有新特性:共振和Autler-Townes劈裂条件下相位对入射场强和初始光子关联不敏感,而在两者之间的频率范围内相位响应具有非线性特征,尤其在经典光频率处最显著.此外,提高主量子数和原子密度都会促进相位的非线性效应.综上,与探测场透射率和光子关联一样,相位可以作为合作光学非线性的另一个标识来刻画非线性现象,对里德伯电磁感应透明研究是一个有力的补充.

The Structure–Property Correlations in the Isomerism of Au21(SR)15 Nanoclusters by Density Functional Theory Study

Isomerism of atomically precise noble metal nanoclusters provides an excellent platform to investigate the structure–property correlations of metal nanomaterials. In this study, we performed density functional theory (DFT) and time‐dependent (TD‐DFT) calculations on two Au₂₁(SR)₁₅ nanoclusters, one with a hexagonal closed packed core (denoted as Au₂₁ ^hcp ), and the other one with a face‐centered cubic core (denoted as Au₂₁ ^fcc ). The structural and electronic analysis on the typical Au–Au and Au–S bond distances, bond orders, composition of the frontier orbitals and the origin of optical absorptions shed light on the inherent correlations between these two clusters.     

Mesoporous Rh Emerging from Nanophase‐separated Rh‐Y Alloy

Mesoporous precious metals with abundant active sites and high surface area have been widely recognized as high‐performance catalytic materials. However, the templated synthesis is complex and costly. Herein, we report a mesoporous rhodium (m‐Rh) that can be readily synthesized from entangled nanofibres of Rh and Y₂O₃ without templates. The entangled nanofibres, prepared from uniform Rh‐Y alloys under redox atmosphere, were the key precursor in the synthesis processes. Moreover, the m‐Rh efficiently catalyzed carbon dioxide reforming of methane (DRM) at a low reaction temperature of 683 K. Further, electrochemical methods of CO electro‐oxidation were innovatively used to demonstrate the stability of CO and oxygen species for the DRM reaction.     

Preparation and Rheology of Isocyanate Functionalized Graphene Oxide/Thermoplastic Polyurethane Elastomer Nanocomposites

Using monomer-functionalized nanofiller to prepare polymeric nanocomposites is a promising strategy toward achieving enhanced performance. In this study toluene-2,4-diisocyanate (TDI), one of the monomers used for synthesizing polyurethane, was covalently functionalized on graphene oxide (GO) and then the functionalized GO (TDI-GO) was polymerized with polycaprolactone diol (PCL) via in-situ polymerization, leading to chemically linked polyurethane nanocomposites through the covalent bonds between the isocyanate groups on GO and the hydroxyl-terminated PCL. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and dispersion experiments of the nanofillers demonstrated that the TDI was successfully grafted onto the GO. The rheological properties were investigated to establish the structure-property relationships of the nanocomposites. The storage moduli (G’), loss moduli (G”) and complex viscosity (η*) of the samples increased monotonically with TDI-GO content, which is attributed to the strong polymer-filler interactions and the effective dispersion of the nanofillers. Additionally, the tan δ variation with frequency, the intersection of G’ and G”, Han plots, van Gurp-Palmen plots and Cole-Cole plots all showed that the incorporation of TDI-GO decreased the degree of microphase separation and improved the elastic properties of the nanocomposites. We suggest this is related to the enhanced interactions between the polymer and nanofillers, which strongly restricted the mobility and relaxation of the polymer chains.     

Andreev reflection in a patterned graphene nanoribbon superconducting heterojunction

In the study, an improved superconducting heterojunction is made up of a zigzag graphene nanoribbon, which is patterned by a triangle and supports localized edge mode. Since all the localized edge modes stem from a pattern operation, the structure features of the pattern exert an enormous function on the coherent quantum transport. Especially, the patterned modes can enhance the Andreev reflection largely both in the ferromagnetic nanoribbon edge and the antiferromagnetic nanoribbon edge. The spin resolved zero bias conductances, in sharp contrast to its counterpart in the infinite width superconducting heterojunction, exhibit the different dependence on the patterned ferromagnetic interaction.     

Construction of Recycling Photocatalytic Gels for the Disinfection of Pathogens and Degradation of Organic Pollutants

Bismuth oxybromide (BiOBr) nanosheets are exciting photocatalysts for microbial disinfection and organic dye degradation. However, it remains a great challenge to easily recycle these nanomaterials and improve their photocatalytic ability. Herein, we constructed a novel photocatalytic BiOBr@PAG gel containing BiOBr nanosheets and polyacrylamide gel (PAG), based on peroxydisulfate-induced polymerization reaction. The photocatalytic gel had equally distribution of BiOBr nanosheets on the surface, and could be easily recycled from water. More strikingly, the gel could also rapidly kill all tested pathogenic bacteria (i. e., Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus) under irradiation. Its disinfection activity is attributed to remarkable intracellular ROS production and oxidative cell damage. Furthermore, the gel had higher photocatalytic activity than BiOBr nanosheets alone during degradation of organic dyes. This study developed a novel strategy for preparation of easy-recycling and high-efficiency photocatalytic systems for practical application in environmental treatment and medicinal disinfection.     

Enhanced monopole transition strength from the cluster decay of ~(13)C

The inelastic excitations and cluster decay of ~(13)C have been measured using the reaction,9Be(~(13)C, ~(13)C* →~9Be + α)~9Be. We observe strong excitation to the 14.3-MeV(1/2-) resonant state from the cluster-decay channel, leading to an enhanced monopole matrix element of(6.3 ± 0.6) fm~2. This large cluster-related monopole strength is a clear indication of the cluster-structure domination of this state and is consistent with the recent prediction of the orthogonality condition model(OCM). It would be interesting to further explore the three-center molecular rotational band that is initiated from the observed band-head.

内埋武器高速风洞弹射投放模型试验关键技术研究

针对新一代战斗机超声速内埋武器弹射投放分离安全性问题,采用高速风洞投放实验技术研究内埋武器从开式武器舱弹射投放分离动态运动过程,风洞投放模型试验过程中采用除垂直加速度不足外,其余全部运动严格相似的轻模型相似设计方法,并针对轻模型法垂直加速度不足所导致的投放垂直位移偏离实物位移问题,采用一种简单易行的公式修正法进行补偿,试验给出了不同初始弹射投放分离条件下,内埋武器从载机投放分离后运动轨迹与姿态角随分离时间的变化规律,试验马赫数$Ma = 1.5$.研究结果表明:初始投放分离角速度对内埋武器投放分离后的运动轨迹及姿态角有较大的影响,当初始投放分离角速度$\omega _{z0}^s = 0^\circ/{\rm s}$时,内埋导弹出舱后先向下运动远离载机的流场干扰区,之后逐渐向载机方向抬升靠近并最终碰撞载机,高速风洞投放试验结果是不安全的,但经过公式修正后投放试验结果比较乐观,垂直方向运动仍然一直下降远离载机,这说明采用高速风洞投放试验得出的导弹不安全投放分离对真实载机来说不一定会出现,高速风洞投放试验结果比较保守. 当初始投放分离角速度$\omega _{z0}^s= 15^\circ/{\rm s}$和$\omega _{z0}^s = 30^\circ/{\rm s}$时,内埋导弹投放分离后运动趋势几乎一致, 均没出现向载机靠近的现象,内埋导弹具有一定的初始投放分离角速度有利于内埋武器的安全分离.
