Interface slip and the buildup of hydrodynamic pressure in nanoscale bearings

A new type of hydrodynamic bearing is presented. Instead of physically forming a wedged space by two plates, the bearing consists of two parallel plates, with regions of different wettability on one of the surfaces. With the introduction of such a wettability-patterned surface, the hydrodynamic pressure can be built up because the local slip length over different regions in the bearing is different and results in similar velocity profiles to that in a traditional wedged bearing. Molecular dynamics simulation results indicate that the hydrodynamic pressure is proportional to the shear velocity. However, as the shear velocity exceeds a critical value, the slip length becomes infinite and the hydrodynamic bearing loses its function.     

Radiative lifetime measurements and oscillator strength determination for transitions in singly ionized praseodymium (Pr II)

New radiative lifetimes for 20 levels of Pr II have been measured using the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) technique. The combination of these experimental values with theoretical branching fractions (BF) obtained with the pseudo-relativistic Hartree-Fock (HFR) approach has allowed us to determine oscillator strengths and transition probabilities for about 150 lines appearing in the spectral region between 369.9 and 741.2 nm. A detailed discussion of our new results and comparisons with previous data are also given in the present paper.Received: 26 March 2003, Published online: 29 July 2003PACS: 32.70.Cs Oscillator strengths, lifetimes, transition moments - 42.62.Fi Laser spectroscopy

复合液腔高灵敏度水听器

探索新的换能器结构是提高换能器性能的主要途径之一。设计了一种利用液腔结构提高接收灵敏度的水听器,称为复合液腔水听器。该水听器用压电陶瓷圆管作为敏感材料,并将其放在一个底部开孔的金属圆桶内。在流体中,开孔圆桶形成两个频率不同的液腔谐振模态,并与压电陶瓷圆管的径向谐振模态衔接在一起,形成具有一定带宽的高接收灵敏度频段。采用有限元方法对水听器进行了优化设计并研制了水听器样机。水池测试结果表明,该水听器样机在1.5 k Hz～11.5 k Hz频率范围内灵敏度保持在-185 d B以上,比传统的压电陶瓷圆管水听器结构具有显著优势。     

4.44 W of CW 515 nm green light generated by intracavity frequency doubling Yb:YAG thin disk laser with LBO

We demonstrate the generation of 515 nm green laser with diode-pumped Yb:YAG thin disk by intracavity frequency doubling of type-I phase-matched LiB₃O₅(LBO) in a V-type cavity at room temperature. A continuous-wave (CW) output power of 4.44 W at 515 nm was obtained. Optical-optical efficiency of 515 nm green laser is 14.6%. The fluctuation of green laser was 1.6% at the maximum output power in 0.5 h. Thermal lensing effects in Yb:YAG thin disk are investigated too.

Temperature dependent phonon modes and ionicity of LiGaO2 single crystal

This paper reports that polarized far-infrared reflectivity measurements have been done on LiGaO2 single crystal along two crystalline taxes at different temperatures. The temperature dependent frequencies of the longitudinal and transverse optical phonon have been obtained from the real part of optical conductivity and the loss function respectively. A small Drude component is observed at frequency below 300 cm^-1 which could arise from Li ions or oxygen deficiencies. The ionicity of LiGaO2 has been studied from the analysis of the Born effective charge of different ions.     

利用法布里-珀罗腔抑制电光相位调制中的剩余幅度调制

激光经电光相位调制后,由于剩余幅度调制的存在造成调制边带幅度不相等。利用法布里-珀罗腔的透射特性和Pound-Drever-Hall技术对通过法布里-珀罗腔的调制光正、负一级边带的幅度产生不同的衰减,使得调制边带的幅度相等,从而实现对电光相位调制中剩余幅度调制的抑制。采用该方法,理论上计算了调制光经法布里-珀罗腔后的光外差光谱信号,获得锁定法布里-珀罗腔后调制边带幅度的不对称度较腔锁定前减小四个数量级。实验研究了调制光经法布里-珀罗腔透射的光外差光谱,结果表明将法布里-珀罗腔锁定于该透射光外差光谱中心零位时,对剩余幅度调制的抑制程度可达45 dB。     

Influence of NH<Subscript>3</Subscript> flow rate on pyridine-like N content and NO electrocatalytic oxidation of N-doped multiwalled carbon nanotubes

Nitrogen-doped multiwalled carbon nanotubes (N-MWCNTs) have been prepared by pyrolysis of pyridine and iron phthalocyanine over an iron catalyst at 850 °C at various ammonia gas (NH₃) flow rates. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results reveal that the pyridine-like nitrogen (N) content can be controlled by changing the flow rate of NH₃, and that pyridine-like N plays an important role: it can increase the electrocatalytic activity and the rate of nitric oxide (NO) electrooxidation and decrease the activation energy of NO electrooxidation. Cyclic voltammetry results demonstrate that the N-MWCNTs sample grown with 200 mL/min NH₃ flow has the maximum N content of 3.22 atomic %, and its content of pyridine-like N that is chemically active is also the highest among all the N-MWCNTs samples. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results indicate that two-step electron transfer process occurs at the N-MWCNT-modified electrode, and the control step is different in various potential regions. The stability of NO electrooxidation at the N-MWCNT-modified electrode is examined, and the reaction mechanism is discussed.
