Enhanced photocatalytic activity of TiO2 thin film coating on microstructured silicon substrate

Photocatalytic TiO2 thin film is prepared by sol–gel technique on microstructured silicon substrate produced by femtosecond laser cumulative irradiation. The photocatalytic activity is evaluated by the degradation of methylene blue (MB) solution under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. For 6-ml MB solution with initial concentration of 3.0×10~-5 mol/L, the degradation rate caused by TiO2 thin film of 2-cm~2 area is higher than 70% after 10-h UV irradiation. Microstructured silicon substrate is found to enhance photocatalytic activity of the TiO2 thin film remarkably. The femtosecond laser microstructured silicon substrate is suitable to support TiO2 thin film photocatalysts.     

Growth, Characterization and Theoretical Study of a Novel Organometallic Nonlinear Optical Crystal: CdHg(SCN)4(C2H5NO)2

A novel potentially useful second harmonic generation (SHG) organometallic nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal: cadmium mercury thiocyanate bis(N-methylformamide), CdHg(SCN)₄(C₂H₅NO)₂ (CMTN), has been prepared, and large high-optical-quality single crystals with dimensions up to 30 ×27×9 mm³ have been grown by the temperature-lowering method. Its structural, physicochemical and optical properties are characterized by elemental analyses, X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectroscopy, thermal analysis, powder SHG measurements and UV/Vis/NIR transmission. The specific heat has been determined to be 515.5 J?mol^?1?K^?1 at 300 K. CMTN possesses good physicochemical stability up to 128.5^°C, exhibits powder SHG efficiencies 0.8 times that of urea and its UV transparency cutoff is 358 nm. By the use of the DFT/B3LYP/6-31G(d) method, the microscopic second order NLO behavior of CMTN has been investigated by computing the first-order hyperpolarizability together with that of CdHg(SCN)₄ (CMTC) and CdHg(SCN)₄(C₃H₈O₂) (CMTG) crystals. The results have been explained based on their crystal structures.     

A highly accurate method to solve Fisher’s equation

In this study, we present a new and very accurate numerical method to approximate the Fisher’s-type equations. Firstly, the spatial derivative in the proposed equation is approximated by a sixth-order compact finite difference (CFD6) scheme. Secondly, we solve the obtained system of differential equations using a third-order total variation diminishing Runge–Kutta (TVD-RK3) scheme. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method.     

Diode pumped active-mirror Yb:YAG ceramic lasers

Lasers from Yb:YAG ceramic at different temperature were reported in this paper. The Yb:YAG ceramic laser with active-mirror structure was end-pumped by a laser diode whose central wavelength was 940 nm. At 80 K, with doping concentration of 5 at % Yb:YAG ceramic slab, output energy of 0.68 J at 10 Hz repetition rate was obtained under the pump energy of 2.49 J, corresponding to a slope efficiency of 40% and a conversion efficiency of 27.3%, respectively.

Latex-mediated synthesis of ZnS nanoparticles: green synthesis approach

A low-cost, green synthesis of ZnS nanoparticles is reported using 0.3 % latex solution prepared from Jatropha curcas L. ZnS nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction, selected area electron diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive analysis of X-rays, UV–vis optical absorption and photoluminescence techniques. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy was performed to find the role of cyclic peptides namely curcacycline A (an octapeptide), curcacycline B (a nonapeptide) and curcain (an enzyme) as a possible reducing and stabilizing agents present in the latex of J. curcas L. The average size of ZnS nanoparticles was found to be 10 nm. Latex of J. curcas L. itself acts as a source of sulphide (S⁻²) ions that are donated to Zn ions under present experimental conditions. Source of sulphide (S⁻²) ions is still unclear, but we speculate that cysteine or thiol residues present in enzyme curcain may be donating these sulphide (S⁻²) ions.     

Coupled-channel analysis for 20.4 MeV energy of p-<Superscript>64</Superscript>Zn inelastic scattering

In this study, a coupled-channel (CC) analysis of the elastic and the inelastic scattering of 20.4 MeV polarized protons from a ⁶⁴Zn target leading to the deformed 2⁺, 3−, 2₂⁺2_2^+ states was performed. The CC potential parameters and the deformation parameters of the excited states corresponding to the best fit to the experimental differential cross-sections and the analysing powers data were determined. For 2₂⁺2_2^+ excited state, a mixed type was used and a good fit to the data was provided. The CC calculation results were compared to the pure distorted wave Born approximation (DWBA) calculation results which were calculated using the new parameters. All calculations were conducted using the computer code ECIS06.     

纤锌矿结构AlInN电子及光学性质的第一性原理研究

本文通过基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理,研究了纤锌矿结构Al1-xInxN在不同In浓度下的稳固结构,以及电子和光学性质的变化规律。研究表明,AlInN不同In浓度的晶格结构都很稳定,说明AlInN的兼容性很好。晶格常数随In浓度的增大不断增大,而混晶的带隙则不断减小。并且随In浓度的增大,混晶在紫外光区的吸收系数、反射系数及折射率增大,吸收边、吸收峰和反射峰蓝移,且这两个峰的峰值减小。AlInN的吸收、反射和折射率曲线在Eg处出现峰值行为,此Eg处的峰值大小随In浓度的增加而增大。当In浓度达到87.5%时,混晶AlInN在紫外光区的吸收、反射和折射能力均达到最强,表明此时的掺杂效果最好。     

Characteristics of xenon-lamp pumped pyrromethene 567-doped dye laser based on polymethylmethacrylater

The solid-state medium containing pyrromethene 567 (PM567) in a polymethylmethacrylate polymer host is shown to lase under the flash lamp excitation. The experimental setup is an ordinary industrial product without special design. The bulk transmission losses, the output energy, and the other lasing properties are compared. The medium with the lowest transmission loss, measured to be 0.392 %/cm at 633 nm, gives a laser output of 130 mJ with a slope efficiency of 0.082%.
