利用一种简单的方法制备不含任何表面活性剂并具有高甲醇氧化活性的Pt和PtRu纳米电催化剂. 以CO为还原剂, CO和多壁碳纳米管(MWCNT_s)为保护剂和载体,通过一步反应得到沉积在多壁碳纳米管上Pt纳米粒子,在制备过程中无需使用任何有机溶剂或表面活性剂. 利用循环伏安法和计时电流法表征了所合成催化剂的甲醇氧化活性,甲醇氧化的峰电位(ca. 0.9 V vs. RHE)处的电流密度和比质量电流高达11.6 mA/cm² 和860 mA/mg_Pt. 在Pt/MWCNT_s表面电沉积Ru后,催化剂在低电位处的甲醇氧化活性得到提高,其在0.5和0.6 V的稳态比质量电流分别达到了20和80 mA/mg.     

强聚焦泵浦产生纠缠光子的Hong-Ou-Mandel干涉

(86.6±1.0)Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM)干涉是光子的一种非经典效应,在量子光学中起到重要作用.偏硼酸钡(β-barium borate, BBO)具有较高的非线性效率,常被用来产生双光子态,进而展示HOM干涉.然而,在以前的实验中,人们往往使用带通滤光片对双光子的频谱进行过滤,所得光谱由带通滤光片直接决定,而对BBO晶体自身的原始光谱,特别是泵浦光强聚焦下的原始光谱,缺乏系统性研究.本文对泵浦光强聚焦条件下BBO晶体产生的双光子纠缠态光谱分布和HOM干涉进行了深入研究.理论计算发现,使用50 mm透镜聚焦的情况和无聚焦情况相比,下转换光的光谱宽度会增加7.4倍, HOM干涉条纹的宽度会减少为无聚焦情况的1/8,干涉条纹可见度会从53.0%提高到98.7%.实验上使用II型BBO晶体制备了能量-时间纠缠态,并进行了HOM干涉,获得了%的干涉可见度.干涉可见度极大提高的原因在于强聚焦改善了光谱的对称性.此外,本文提出的不同入射角获得不同光谱分布的技术方案有望在未来应用于高维量子纠缠态的制备.     

Utilizing Experiment and Theory to Evaluate Rhodamine B ethylenediamine as a Fluorescent Sensor for G-type Nerve Agents

Nerve gas mimic binding with Rhodamine B ethylenediamine (1) was studied in organic media. Binding of the nerve gas mimic, diethyl chlorophosphate (DCP), with the probe generated a non-fluorescent intermediate and a fluorescent product. Fluorescent and non-fluorescent products generated were identified using mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. Time-dependent density functional theory calculations were also used to investigate the electronic structure of the fluorescent probe in the ground and lowest lying π?→?π* singlet excited state. Though good agreement between theory and experiment can be obtained for the intense peak in the experimental spectrum using non-hybrid functionals, care must be taken when modelling these complexes due to the appearance of an n?→?π* transition that is too low in energy and appears to fall in the shoulders of the π?→?π* transitions.

     

Efficient diode-pumped Nd:GGG laser operation at 933.6 and 937.3 nm

CW laser emission on the quasi 3-level (⁴F_3/2→⁴I_9/2) transition in Nd:GGG is reported for different pump focusing and resonator dimensions. A nearly hemispherical plano-concave resonator led at 937.3 nm to a maximum output power of 4.1 W for an incident pump power of 21.7 W, thus corresponding to a slope efficiency of about 23.5%. Laser operation was also obtained for the first time around 933.6 nm by using a glass etalon for frequency selection with a maximum output power of 2.3 W and a slope efficiency of 16% with respect to the incident pump power. Dual-wavelength operation (around 933.6 and 937.3 nm), which offers a potential source to generate THz radiation, is also reported.

Synchrotron X‐ray tests of an L‐shaped laterally graded multilayer mirror for the analyzer system of the ultra‐high‐resolution IXS spectrometer at NSLS‐II

Characterization and testing of an L‐shaped laterally graded multilayer mirror are presented. This mirror is designed as a two‐dimensional collimating optics for the analyzer system of the ultra‐high‐resolution inelastic X‐ray scattering (IXS) spectrometer at National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS‐II). The characterization includes point‐to‐point reflectivity measurements, lattice parameter determination and mirror metrology (figure, slope error and roughness). The synchrotron X‐ray test of the mirror was carried out reversely as a focusing device. The results show that the L‐shaped laterally graded multilayer mirror is suitable to be used, with high efficiency, for the analyzer system of the IXS spectrometer at NSLS‐II.     

Experimental study of the focusing properties of a Gaussian Schell-model vortex beam

We carry out an experimental and theoretical study of the focusing properties of a Gaussian Schell-model (GSM) vortex beam. It is found that we can shape the beam profile of the focused GSM vortex beam by varying its initial spatial coherence width. Focused dark hollow, flat-topped, and Gaussian beam spots can be obtained in our experiment, which will be useful for trapping particles. The experimental results agree well with the theoretical results.

High spatial resolution distributed strain sensor based on linear chirped fiber Bragg grating and fiber loop ringdown spectroscopy

A simple sensor system for high spatial resolution distributed strain field measurement is proposed and demonstrated experimentally. The fiber loop ringdown technique combined with a linear chirped fiber Bragg grating is used to realize the high spatial resolution. A proof-of-concept distributed strain sensor with 2?mm spatial resolution is realized. The sensor network is also explored and researched experimentally. The proposed technique suggests a broad range of applications for real-time distributed physical parameter sensing, such as strain or temperature.
