Synthesis and Characterization of Pressure and Temperature Dual‐Responsive Polystyrene Microbeads

A facile approach to the synthesis of pressure and temperature dual‐responsive polystyrene (PS) microbeads with controlled sizes via dispersion polymerization is described. Three different luminophors are selected and directly introduced into the reaction system and thus incorporated into the resultant PS microbeads during polymerization. By manipulating the reaction conditions, including concentrations of the initiator and monomer, polarity of the reaction medium, and injection rate for the monomer, uniform PS microbeads with sizes ranging from 1 to 5 μm are obtained. When a light source centered at 365 nm is used to excite all the luminophors in the PS beads, three distinct and resolvable emission peaks corresponding well with the luminophors are observed. By taking advantage of their sensitive responses to both pressure and temperature, the PS beads can be utilized for quantitative measurements of these two stimulations simultaneously. The PS beads loaded with multiple luminophors have the ability to serve as building blocks for the fabrication of novel sensing and imaging devices and therefore provide a promising strategy for the study of aerodynamics.     

T型量子点结构中的自旋极化输运过程

我们利用单杂质Anderson模型及运动方程等理论,通过求解格林函数的方法研究了通过T型量子点结构(耦合于铁磁电极和介观环量子点结构)的自旋极化输运过程.研究结果表明,与量子点相耦合的铁磁电极中的极化强度是控制量子点电子输运的重要参数,由此可以达到自旋阀效应.另外我们还发现与量子点相耦合的介观环中的磁通会影响电子自旋向上和自旋向下近藤共振峰的分裂程度,但若加入适当的外磁场,那么这样的分裂将被抵消。     

不同叶轮形式下离心泵噪声特性对比研究

针对具有无短叶片和有短叶片两种叶轮形式的离心泵,对设计状态下离心泵内部流场进行了全三维、非定常数值模拟,对比分析了其非定常流场特性和噪声辐射特性。流场分析表明:叶轮叶片和蜗舌的相互作用造成了叶片表面强烈的压力脉动,对长短叶片的叶轮形式,在局部增加长叶片表面压力脉动的同时,短叶片表面的压力脉动保持较低水平;同时能够有效降低泵体进口压力脉动,但出口压力脉动有所增强。以叶轮叶片表面作为声源辐射面,对比分析了两种叶轮的偶极子噪声辐射特性,结果表明:长短叶片结构通过改变声能在频域上的分布,从而能有效降低总声压级。

Speech dereverberation method based on spectral subtraction and spectral line enhancement

Speech signals recorded with a distant microphone usually are interfered by the spatial reverberation in the room, which severely degrades the clarity and intelligibility of speech. A speech dereverberation method based on spectral subtraction and spectral line enhancement is proposed in this paper. Following the generalized statistical reverberation model, the power spectrum of late reverberation is estimated and removed from the reverberation speech by the spectral subtraction method. Then, according to the human auditory model, a spectral line enhancement technique based on adaptive post-filtering is adopted to further eliminate the reverberant components between adjacent speech formants. The proposed method can effectively suppress the spatial reverberation and improve the auditory perception of speech. The subjective and objective evaluation results reveal that the perceptual quality of speech is greatly improved by the proposed method.     

Facile and scalable fabrication engineering of fullerenol nanoparticles by improved alkaline-oxidation approach and its antioxidant potential in maize

A feasible in operation, labor-saving and low-cost one-step technology to fabricate fullerenol nanoparticles (FNPs) up to 10 g in laboratory was developed by improved alkaline-oxidation approach using moderately concentrated sodium hydroxide solution as the hydroxylation agent and o-dichlorobenzene as the solvent. This strategy paves the avenue for industrial-scale bulk production of FNPs. The resulted product, [C₆₀(OH)₂₂·8H₂O]_n, were characterized by various measurements including matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, high-resolution ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV-Visible spectrophotometer, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, dynamic light scattering analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and electron spin resonance spectrometer. Radical scavenging assay in vitro confirmed the high efficiency of water-soluble [C₆₀(OH)₂₂·8H₂O]_n as a novel radical scavenger. Furthermore, [C₆₀(OH)₂₂·8H₂O]_n as an excellent candidate has the potential to serve as the plant defense stimulation agent in maize.

ADI土壤水分反演方法

土壤水分是影响植被、土壤和大气之间能量和水分循环的重要因素,及时准确获取土壤湿度信息有利于提高作物估产精度和改善田间管理措施。本文基于红光与近红外光谱特征空间(NIR-RED)发展了一种新型土壤水分遥感监测模型ADI(angle dryness index),提高了可见光与近红外波段监测土壤水分的精度。经过研究表明,在红光与近红外(NIR-RED)特征空间中,存在一个中间角度变量θ,利用光谱反射率与土壤水分之间的经验关系式模型以及混合像元分解公式证明该变量能够表征土壤湿度情况,而不受植被覆盖度的影响,因此利用该原理构建了ADI方法。最后利用两组遥感数据(分别为TM5与MODIS产品数据)以及对应的地面观测数据进行验证,结果表明计算值与实测值均具有较高的一致性,R2分别达到0.74与0.64。同时,将MPDI的计算结果与实测值进行了比较,两组数据的R2均小于0.60,表明ADI方法的计算精度高于MPDI。在MPDI的计算过程中用到了植被覆盖度,这可能是引起计算结果误差的主要因素。此外,MPDI的计算结果表征土壤湿度的相对值,而ADI则能定量的获取土壤水分含量。MODIS像元除了具有植被与土壤两个端元,还有其他类型端元的概率高于TM数据,因而MODIS数据的计算精度低于TM。因此,ADI是一种简单可行且具有较大应用前景的土壤水分反演方法,适合于推广应用。     

基于多级微镜的傅里叶变换成像光谱仪干涉成像系统分析与设计

为了实现傅里叶变换成像光谱仪的静态化与高通量,提出一种基于多级微镜的时空混合调制成像光谱仪,其干涉系统是利用一个多级微镜代替迈克尔逊干涉仪中的平面镜,其显著特点是无运动部件和限制系统光通量的狭缝,可同时获得目标的干涉图与二维空间图像。该成像光谱仪利用前置成像系统将目标成像到干涉系统的平面镜与多级微镜上,利用多级微镜的结构特点对两成像光束的光程差进行调制,然后通过后置成像系统获得不同干涉级次的目标图像。首先通过对该成像光谱仪干涉系统光谱信噪比的分析,明确了光谱信噪比与图像信噪比之间的关系,确定了多级微镜的特征参数。为了确保每个阶梯面所对应光程差的恒定性,通过对前置成像系统成像过程的分析,确定了前置成像系统像方远心的光路结构;通过对系统视场角与光程差之间关系的分析和计算,确定了前置成像系统的设计指标并完成了光学设计。为了保证后置成像系统不引入额外的光程差,通过对后置成像系统成像特点的分析,确定了后置成像系统双远心的光路结构;通过对系统入射孔径角与阶梯级数之间关系的分析和计算,最终设计出满足系统性能需求的后置成像系统。通过对各单元系统的理论分析与光学设计,为静态化与高通量成像光谱仪的发展提供了一种新的思路。
