常温下氙气以及氢氙混合气体形成的团簇的特性研究

利用瑞利散射法可以对团簇的尺寸以及团簇形成的演变过程进行研究, 这种方法非常简单易行且对团簇是非破坏性的. 通过对纯氙气以及氢氙混合气体形成的团簇的瑞利散射进行测量, 研究并分析了瑞利散射强度随时间、初始背压 以及气体混合比例的变化, 由此估算了在不同情况下形成团簇的平均尺寸. 通过获得的氢氙混合气体瑞利散射强度与背压的关系I=(1.5 ×10^-5)P^6.47, 发现了混合气体中氢气对氙团簇形成的促进作用, 并从热力学和分子间作用力的角度进行了理论分析, 得到了氢氙混合气体不易于液化这一新现象, 为实现高背压下更大尺寸团簇的产生提供了可能. 所获得的结果为今后基于氙团簇的X射线产生实验, 以及基于氘氙混合气体的中子产生实验研究提供了良好的实验依据.

Effect of near ${ \mathcal P }{ \mathcal T }$-symmetric potentials on nonlinear modes for higher-order generalized Ginzburg–Landau model

In this paper, we study the higher-order generalized Ginzburg–Landau model which contributes to describing the propagation of optical solitons in fibers. By means of the Hirota bilinear method, the analytical solutions are obtained and the effect of relevant parameters is analyzed. Modulated by the near parity-time-symmetric potentials, the nonlinear modes with 5% initial random noise are numerically simulated to possess stable evolution. Furthermore, the evolution of nonlinear modes is displayed through the adiabatical change of some parameters. The investigation of the present work is intended as a contribution to the work for the higher-order generalized Ginzburg–Landau model.     

Macrocycle-Based Crystalline Supramolecular Assemblies Built with Intermolecular Charge-Transfer Interactions

Synthetic macrocycles have served as principal tools for supramolecular chemistry, have greatly extended the scope of organic charge transfer (CT) complexes, and have proved to be of great practical value in the solid state during the past few years. In this Minireview, we summarize the research progress on the macrocycle-based crystalline supramolecular assemblies primarily driven by intermolecular CT interactions (a.k.a. macrocycle-based crystalline CT assemblies, MCCAs for short), which are classified by their donor–acceptor (D-A) constituent elements, including simplex macrocyclic hosts, heterogeneous macrocyclic hosts, and host–guest D-A pairs. Particular attention will be focused on their diverse functions and applications, as well as the underlying CT mechanisms from the perspective of crystal engineering. Finally, the remaining challenges and prospects are outlined.
