Raman spectroscopic study of ceramic Sr2Bi4Ti5O18

Raman spectra of ceramic Sr2Bi4Ti5O18 （SBTi5） are reported to consist of four different Raman bands. Temperature-dependent spectra reveal the relationship between the lattice vibration and the material＇s structure. There appears a relatively large change in structure of the material at about 273K, The anharmonic potential of the material has a great influence on its phonon mode full width at half maximum （FWHM）, which can be expressed by a function of temperature. Theoretical fittings of the FWHMs for the two modes at around 312 cm^-1 and 464cm^-1 indicate that the latter phonon mode is more anharmonic than the former one.

TiN/Al2O3纳米多层膜的共格外延生长及超硬效应

采用多靶磁控溅射法制备了一系列具有不同Al2O3调制层厚度的TiN/Al2O3纳米多层膜.利用X射线能量色散谱、X射线衍射、扫描电子显微镜、高分辨透射电子显微镜和微力学探针表征了多层膜的成分、微结构和力学性能.研究结果表明,在TiN/Al2O3纳米多层膜中,单层膜时以非晶态存在的Al2O3层在厚度小于1.5 nm时因TiN晶体层的模板效应而晶化,并与TiN层形成共格外延生长,相应地,多层膜产生硬度明显升高的超硬效应,最高硬度可达37.9 GPa.进一步增加多层膜中Al2O3调制层的层厚度,Al2O3层逐渐形成非晶结构并破坏了多层膜的共格外延生长,使得多层膜的硬度逐步降低.     

Evaluation of Commodity Trading Advisors using fixed and variable and benchmark models

This paper examines the performance of Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs) using fixed and variable benchmarking models. In order to avoid the troublesome passive and active commodity and managed futures benchmarks (indices) when examining the performance of CTAs, we innovate by using data envelopment analysis (DEA). Because this alternative class has non-linear returns due to long/short positions, and derivatives (i.e., dynamic trading strategies), DEA can alleviate the problems usually associated with these indices. The effectiveness of using benchmarking models in a DEA setting will provide investors with an alternative technique in assessing the performance and identifying efficient CTAs.     

Dynamics of kinks in biological membranes

kinks created in a biological membrane by the interaction with a movable bead. We arrive at the evolution equations for both the bead and the membrane, whence we conclude that the force exerted on the bead by a fixed membrane points in the direction along which the curvature of the membrane is more concentrated. This is the first step towards understanding the basic mechanism behind the dynamics of protein aggregation which takes place on biological membranes.

晶体学与准晶体学点群的母子群关系

依据群论，得出了准晶体学点群的直积或半直积推导算式；依据结晶学理论，绘出了五角、八角、十角和十二角晶系各点群的极赤投影图.据此推导出了每一个准晶体学点群的全部最大子群，从而推导并绘制出了三维晶体学和准晶体学点群之间的母子群关系(60个点群的“家谱”).该“家谱”以最大子群链的图解形式直观地给出了每个点群的最小母群和最大子群. 关键词： 准晶体 晶体 点群 最大子群 最小母群 群链

Existence and multiplicity of solutions for a nonlinear Neumann problem

We consider a Neumann problem of the type -εΔu+F ^′(u(x))=0 in an open bounded subset Ω of R ⁿ , where F is a real function which has exactly k maximum points. Using Morse theory we find that, for ε suitably small, there are at least 2k nontrivial solutions of the problem and we give some qualitative information about them.

Optical spectroscopy of Yb/Er codoped NaY(WO4)2 crystal

Erbium and ytterbium codoped double tungstates NaY(WO₄)₂ crystals were prepared by using Czochralski (CZ) pulling method. The absorption spectra in the region 290-2000 nm have been recorded at room temperature. The Judd-Ofelt theory was applied to the measured values of absorption line strengths to evaluate the spontaneous emission probabilities and stimulated emission cross sections of Er³⁺ ions in NaY(WO₄)₂ crystals. Intensive green and red lights were measured when the sample were pumped by a 974 nm laser diode (LD), especially, the intensities of green upconversion luminescence are very strong. The mechanism of energy transfer from Yb³⁺ to Er³⁺ ions was analyzed. Energy transfer and nonradiative relaxation played an important role in the upconversion process. Photoexcited luminescence experiments are also fulfilled to help analyzing the transit processes of the energy levels.
