Structure of zirconium dioxide based porous glasses

This study is devoted to investigation of the micro- and mesostructure (including fractal properties) of porous zirconia glasses synthesized by precipitation from zirconium n-propoxide solutions in the presence of different hydrolyzing-agent (H₂O) quantities at different temperatures. Analysis of small-angle neutron, ultra-small-angle neutron and X-ray scattering, scanning electron microscopy allows concluding that the synthesized glasses are complex systems with a three-level hierarchical fractal structure. It is revealed that both the temperature of synthesis and the H₂O concentration in the initial solution significantly affect the structural characteristics of the glasses.     

Parameter determination from current–voltage characteristics of HgCdTe photodiodes in forward bias region

Current–voltage characteristics of HgCdTe photodiodes in the forward bias region have been modeled considering mechanisms including drift-diffusion current, recombination current, metal-semiconductor contact and constant series resistance. Moreover, a fitting method based on the genetic algorithm has been developed to obtain values of related physical parameters from the measured dynamic resistance–voltage curves. Fitting results of $n^+$ -on- $p$ planar devices with different cutoff wavelengths are presented to illustrate the model and method, which are available and promising in acquiring device parameter values and evaluating the electrode contact quality.     

Novel Quantum Virtual Private Network Scheme for PON via Quantum Secure Direct Communication

Two quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) protocols with quantum identification (QI) based on passive optical network (PON) architecture are proposed. One QSDC protocol can be implemented between two different optical network units just with simple configurations of PON by optical line terminal when they are in the same virtual private network after optical line terminal performing QI to the optical network units in the given PON architecture. The other QSDC protocol is also implemented between any two legitimated users in the virtual private network but with considerable reduction of workload of the optical line terminal. The security analysis shows that the proposed QSDC schemes with quantum identification are unconditionally secure and allow the legitimate users to exchange their secret information efficiently and to realize a quantum virtual private network in the PON networks ultimately.     

煤粉燃烧过程碳烟生成的激光测量研究

燃煤锅炉生成的碳烟不仅会增强火焰辐射、影响燃烧外,还排放到大气环境中带来严重危害。为了进一步了解其生成机理从而更好地对其生成量及特性进行控制,对煤粉燃烧过程中颗粒周围碳烟的分布规律进行定量的研究十分必要。本文自行设计了注射式微量给粉装置,成功实现了0.1 g/h量级给粉率下的连续给粉,并通过改进多元扩散燃烧器和以及结合激光诱导白炽光(Laser Induced Incandescence)技术,首次实现了对单颗粒煤粉燃烧过程中碳烟分布的定量测量,发现对于70μm左右的煤粉颗粒,碳烟分布直径约为1 mm。此外还通过控制气氛,研究了含氧量对碳烟生成的影响,发现随着氧含量的上升,碳烟总浓度下降并且峰值出现更早的规律。     

Use of tunable second‐harmonic signal from KNbO3 nanoneedles to find optimal wavelength for deep‐tissue imaging

Nonlinear optical (NLO) responses of perovskite‐type nanostructures have a variety of potential applications owing to the highly efficient frequency conversion guaranteed by both the material itself and the nanometer‐scale configuration. KNbO₃ (KN) nanoneedles have been identified as a promising NLO material because of the superior broadband frequency conversion efficiency, and if incident light is propagating in a direction perpendicular to the axis of a nanoneedle, then the phase‐matching constraint can be relaxed. Here, the second‐harmonic generation (SHG) and third‐harmonic generation (THG) responses of both individual and clustered KN nanoneedles are reported. Based on these results, a novel method is proposed for determining the optimal excitation wavelength for NLO imaging of several biological samples, with KN nanoneedles acting as NLO agents. The method is shown to provide the optical features in the focal plane and a more reliable estimation of the optimal excitation wavelength for deep‐tissue imaging.     

多维谱的简化探测

提出一种利用谱编辑的方法来简化二维谱的探测,使得一张二维谱可以被简化为N条一维谱(N等于二维谱中F1维上的谱线总数),从而达到缩短数据采集时间和减少数据贮存空间的目的。文中给出了运用此方法探测二维碳氢异核相关实验的实例,并分析了由于F1维的谱线不为δ函数而产生的编辑误差的大小,最后将此方法推广到三维的简化探测,即通过对N张二维谱的编辑获得三维谱的信息。

Applying the finite-thickness model to designs of cylindrical microlenses with small -numbers

The finite-thickness model (FTM) is applied to the design of cylindrical microlenses based on the wave-front interference principle, rather than the existing zero-thickness model (ZTM). This design method is very simple in physics and highly efficient in computations. For cylindrical lenses with different f-numbers (from f/1.5 to f/0.6), the detailed designs by using both the FTM and the ZTM are carried out. To show the superiority of the FTM to the ZTM, we investigate the focal performance of all the designed lenses based on rigorous electromagnetic theory and the boundary element method. Numerical results reveal that the constructed cylindrical lenses by the FTM are witnessed to exhibit much better focusing performance than those by the ZTM, especially for the small f-numbers.     

Mesoporous material grafted with luminescent molecules for the design of selective metal ion chemosensor

Luminescent Schiff-base groups have been successfully grafted on the surface of mesoporous material MCM-48. The grafted Schiff-base groups were employed to prepare luminescent Schiff-base-Zn complex that was covalently bound to the MCM-48 surface. These luminescent mesoporous materials were characterized with X-ray, UV-VIS and emission spectroscopic methods. Experimental results demonstrated that MCM-48 modified with functional groups exhibited novel luminescent property. The chemosensing property of modified MCM-48 sample was investigated. It was demonstrated that the fluorescence of MCM-48 solid with Schiff-base groups could be completely quenched by Cu²⁺ cation and this mesoporous material was suitable for sensing Cu²⁺ cation in aqueous media.
