Effects of external fields on a two-dimensional Klein-Gordon particle under pseudo-harmonic oscillator interaction

We study the effects of the perpendicular magnetic and Aharonov-Bohm(AB) flux fields on the energy levels of a two-dimensional(2D) Klein-Gordon(KG) particle subjected to an equal scalar and vector pseudo-harmonic oscillator(PHO).We calculate the exact energy eigenvalues and normalized wave functions in terms of chemical potential parameter,magnetic field strength,AB flux field,and magnetic quantum number by means of the Nikiforov-Uvarov(NU) method.The non-relativistic limit,PHO,and harmonic oscillator solutions in the existence and absence of external fields are also obtained.

The use of Cr (CO)6 as an alternative CO source in Pd‐catalyzed C‐N bond formation: Synthesis of benzamides

An efficient strategy for the synthesis of benzamides from acetamides and aryl iodides using 1 mol% Pd (OAc)₂ as catalyst and Cr (CO)₆ as CO‐precursor is described. This new synthetic methodology displays high functional group tolerance on both substrates and avoids the need for ligands, reducing agents, or other additives. The corresponding products were obtained in good to excellent yields at atmospheric pressure under mild reaction conditions.     

Rapid near-infrared Raman spectroscopy system for real-time in vivo skin measurements

A rapid dispersive-type near-infrared (NIR) Raman spectroscopy system and a Raman probe were developed to facilitate real-time, noninvasive, in vivo human skin measurements. Spectrograph image aberration was corrected by a parabolic-line fiber array, permitting complete CCD vertical binning, thereby yielding a 3.3-16-fold improvement in signal-to-noise ratio. Good quality in vivo cutaneous NIR Raman spectra free of interference from fiber fluorescence and silica Raman scattering can be acquired in less than 1 s, which greatly facilitates practical noninvasive tissue characterization and clinical diagnosis.     

Application and developing of iron‐doped multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (Fe/MWCNTs) as an efficient and reusable heterogeneous nanocatalyst in the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds

Iron‐doped multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (Fe/MWCNTs) is an efficient, ecofriendly and reusable heterogeneous nanocatalyst for the one‐pot synthesis of heterocyclic compounds including bis‐spiro piperidines, piperidines, dihydro‐2‐oxopyrroles, pyrazoles and diazepines at room temperature with good to excellent yields. The heterogeneous nanocatalyst was fully characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), inductively coupled plasma (ICP) and FT‐IR analysis. Also, the structures of all prepared compounds were characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, FT‐IR, mass spectrometry (MS) and elemental analysis. The major advantages of these protocols are mild and green reaction conditions, short reaction times, clean reaction, operational simplicity, easy purification and good to excellent yields with the reusable heterogeneous nanocatalyst. The catalyst was ten recycled without significant loss of activity.     

Dirac bound states of anharmonic oscillator in external fields

We explore the effect of the external magnetic and Aharonov–Bohm (AB) flux fields on the energy levels of Dirac particle subjects to mixed scalar and vector anharmonic oscillator field in the two-dimensional (2D) space. We calculate the exact energy eigenvalues and the corresponding un-normalized two-spinor-components wave functions in terms of the chemical potential parameter, magnetic field strength, AB flux field and magnetic quantum number by using the Nikiforov–Uvarov (NU) method.
