Phase diagram of the ANNNI model in the Hamiltonian limit

The Hamiltonian limit of the ANNNI model in (1+1) dimensions is studied by using the Quantum Statistical Monte Carlo method. Even if recent results suggest that Monte Carlo calculations may prove unreliable in the study of this system, the phase diagram of the quantum version of the model was successfully obtained. In particular, the clusive transitions between the disordered, the floating incommensurate and the degenerate 2, 2 are determined by analysing the correlation length behaviour in finite lattices.Partially supported by CONICET Argentina     

The bestL 2-approximation by finite sums of functions with separable variables

Summary We consider the problem of the best approximation of a given functionh L ² (X × Y) by sums _k=1 ⁿ f _k f _k, with a prescribed numbern of products of arbitrary functionsf _k L ² (X) andg _k L ² (Y). As a co-product we develop a new proof of the Hilbert—Schmidt decomposition theorem for functions lying inL ² (X × Y).

镓在裸Si系和SiO2/Si系掺杂效应

Based on the diffusion action of gallium in silicon and SiO2 ,a diffusion model of gallium doping in bare silicon system and SiO_2/Si system is first presented in this paper ,the gallium doping effect in the two systems is analyzed theoretically. Experiments and applications have proved that the use of the open-tube gallium deffusion in SiO2/Si system can substantially improve diffusion quality and device characteristics .

Kinetics of the hydrogen electrode reactions of platinum in the NaHSO4 + KHSO4 eutectic melt

The kinetics of the hydrogen electrode reactions on Pt in the NaHSO₄ + KHSO₄ melt at ca. 185°C is studied. Under potentiodynamic conditions both the anodic and cathodic processes can be interpreted with the hydrogen electrode reaction mechanism already known. At potentials more negative than 0.1 V (vs. Ag/Ag⁺ (0.06 M)) the mechanism of the cathodic reaction changes because of a sulphide species formed on the electrode which is produced by a reduction of the melt components.     

Dichloro and alkylchloro gallium derivatives of dichalcogenoimidodiphosphinate ligands: isolation of a spirogallium cation

Dichloro and chloromethyl Ga(III) complexes of general formulae [XClGa-eta2-{R2P(E)NP(E'R'2-E,E'}](X = Cl, R, R'= Ph, E, E'= O (1), S (2), Se (3); R = Ph, R'= OEt, E = O, E'= S (4); R = Me, R'= Ph, E, E'= S (5) and X = Me, E, E'= O (6), S (7), Se (8)) were synthesised by either metathesis reactions between GaCl3 and the potassium salt of the ligand (X = Cl) or by methane eliminations from in situ prepared GaMe2Cl and the protonated ligands LH (X = Me). Redistribution reaction of (3) in either CDCl3 or THF afforded the solvent-free tetracoordinate gallium spirocycle cation [Ga-{eta2-{Ph2P(Se)NP(Se)Ph2-Se,Se'})2]+ (9+). The molecular structures of complexes 2, 4, 5, 7 and 9(+) show non-planar gallacycle rings.     

Rose Bengal‐Sensitized Photooxidation of the Dipeptides l‐Tryptophyl‐l‐Phenylalanine,l‐Tryptophyl‐l‐Tyrosine and l‐Tryptophyl‐l‐Tryptophan: Kinetics,Mechanism and Photoproducts¶

The Rose Bengal‐sensitized photooxidations of the dipeptides l ‐tryptophyl‐l ‐phenylalanine (Trp‐Phe), l ‐tryptophyl‐l ‐tyrosine (Trp‐Tyr) and l ‐tryptophyl‐l ‐tryptophan (Trp‐Trp) have been studied in pH 7 water solution using static photolysis and time‐resolved methods. Kinetic results indicate that the tryptophan (Trp) moiety interacts with singlet molecular oxygen (O₂(¹Δ_g)) both through chemical reaction and through physical quenching, and that the photooxidations can be compared with those of equimolecular mixtures of the corresponding free amino acids, with minimum, if any, influence of the peptide bond on the chemical reaction. This is not a common behavior in other di‐ and polypeptides of photooxidizable amino acids. The ratio between chemical (k_r) and overall (k_t) rate constants for the interaction O₂(¹Δ_g)‐dipeptide indicates that Trp‐Phe and Trp‐Trp are good candidates to suffer photodynamic action, with k_rlk_t values of 0.72 and 0.60, respectively (0.65 for free Trp). In the case of Trp‐Tyr, a lower k_rlk_t value (0.18) has been found, likely as a result of the high component of physical deactivation of O₂(¹Δ_g) by the tyrosine moiety. The analysis of the photooxidation products shows that the main target for O₂(¹Δ_g) attack is the Trp group and suggests a much lower accumulation of kynurenine‐type products, as compared with free Trp. This is possibly because of the occurrence of another accepted alternative pathway of oxidation that gives rise to 3a‐oxidized hydrogenated pyrrolo[2,3‐b]indoles.     

Synthesis and Characterization of p—[Perfluoro—1—（2—fluorosulfonylethoxy）]ethylated Polystyrene

A new fluorinated polystyrene bearing a p-sulbstiuted perfluoro[1-(2-fluorosulfonylethoxy)]ethyl group was synthesized via one-electron oxidation of polystyrene by perfluoro[2-(2-fluorosulfonylethoxy)]propionyl peroxide at different peroxide to polystyrene molar ratios.The yield of perfluoroalkylation decreases with the increase of the reactant molar ratio.The modified polymer has been characterized by various techniques:the ring pefluoro[1-(2-fluorosulfonylethoxy)]ethylation has been proved by FT-IR and ^19FNMR;the X-ray photoelectron spectra(XPS) show the maximum binding energy of F18,O18,C18(two kinds of carbon atoms,namely C-H and C-F)and S2p,respectively; desulfonylation of the fluorinated polystyrene appearing at 217℃ has been found by its thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).The determinations of contact angle,refractive index and glass transition temperature of the modified polymer have disclosed that when the contact angle increases with the increase of the molar ratio,the refractive index and glass transition temperature decrease.The polydispersity values indicate that the degradation of the polymer chains did not occur during the reaction.
