Here, we demonstrate the synthesis of graphene on Ag foil by an atmospheric‐pressure (AP) chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process as tarnish‐resistant coating. Synthesis of a continuous graphene film on Ag foil is achieved using the solid camphor as carbon precursor in a gas mixture of Ar and H2. Tarnishing of the Ag surface through sulfidation is investigated with and without coating of the graphene film. It is observed that the bare Ag surface immediately reacts with sulfur vapor to turn black, whereas graphene coating passivates the Ag surface robustly and thereby restrains the sulfur reaction to preserve from tarnishing. Our findings show that a large‐area graphene film can be effectively grown on Ag surface by a CVD process as a tarnish and corrosion resistance barrier.
Consider a Markovian system of two stations in tandem with finite intermediate buffer and two servers. The servers are heterogeneous, flexible, and more efficient when they work on their own than when they collaborate. We determine how the servers should be assigned dynamically to the stations with the goal of maximizing the system throughput. We show that the optimal policy depends on whether or not one server is dominant (i.e., faster at both stations) and on the magnitude of the efficiency loss of collaborating servers. In particular, if one server is dominant then he must divide his time between the two stations, and we identify the threshold policy the dominant server should use; otherwise each server should focus on the station where he is the faster server. In all cases, servers only collaborate to avoid idleness when the first station is blocked or the second station is starved, and we determine when collaboration is preferable to idleness as a function of the efficiency loss of collaborating servers. 相似文献
We consider the model theory of the real and complex fieldswith a multiplicative group having the Mann property. Amongthese groups are the finitely generated multiplicative groupsin these fields. As a by-product we obtain some results on groupswith the Mann property in rings of Witt vectors and in fieldsof positive characteristic.k 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification03C10, 03C35, 03C60, 03C64, 03C98, 13K05. 相似文献
In the effective mass approximation, we calculated the binding energy and wave function for the 1s-, 1p-, 1d- and 1f-states of a spherical quantum dot (QD) with parabolic potential by using a combination of quantum genetic algorithm (QGA) and Hartree-Fock-Roothaan (HFR) method. In addition, we also investigated the linear and the third-order nonlinear optical absorption coefficients as a function of the incident photon energy for the 1s-1p, 1p-1d and 1d-1f transitions. Our results are shown that the existence of impurity has great influence on optical absorption coefficients. Moreover, the optical absorption coefficients are strongly affected by the incident optical intensity, relaxation time, parabolic potential and dot radius. 相似文献
We study the lasing eigenvalue problems for a periodic open optical resonator made of an infinite grating of circular dielectric cylinders standing in free space, in the E- and H-polarization modes. If possessing a "negative-absorption" refractive index, such cylinders model a chain of quantum wires made of the gain material under pumping. The initial-guess values for the lasing frequencies are provided by the plane-wave scattering problems. We demonstrate a new effect: the existence of specific grating eigenmodes that have a low threshold of lasing even if the wires are optically very thin. 相似文献
We have investigated the structural and optical properties of bulk GaTe crystal grown by vertical Bridgman method. Two photon absorption (TPA) properties of GaTe crystal have been investigated by the open aperture Z-scan technique under 1064 nm wavelength with 4 ns or 65 ps pulse durations. The TPA coefficients are greater in ns regime than that of ps regime. Upon increasing intensity of incident light from 5.02×107 W/cm2 to 1.07×108 W/cm2, the TPA coefficients increased from 3.47×10?6 cm/W to 8.53×10?6 cm/W for nanosecond excitation. Similarly, when intensity of incident light was increased from 6.81×108 W/cm2 to 9.94×108 W/cm2 the TPA coefficients increased from 3.53×10?7 cm/W to 6.83×10?7 cm/W for picosecond excitation. Measured TPA coefficient of GaTe crystal is larger than that of GaSe and GaS layered crystals. 相似文献
A formulation previously presented by the authors for coulomb integrals was generalized to other two-center integrals, except exchange integral. Within this frame, molecular integrals were expressed in terms of some new functions closely related to the well-known incomplete gamma functions and these functions recursively evaluated. Special issues arising in the case of hybrid integrals were addressed, and the results were compared with the ones found in the literature. 相似文献
The efficient generation of aryl radicals from arylboronic acids by manganese(III) acetate is described. In aromatic solvents, in situ generated aryl radicals afford the corresponding biaryls in very good yields. This method works selectively, and yields are better than those from similar, previously described methods. Arylboronic acids carrying sensitive functional groups also work efficiently. 相似文献
In this study, different methods are compared in order to quantitate individual sugars extracted from apple samples using methanol and water. Glucose, fructose, and sucrose are separated in 20 min using an amino-bonded carbohydrate column and a 75:25 acetonitrile-water mobile phase, followed by UV (190 nm) and refractive index detection. Variations in the sugar profiles are observed using different extraction or detection methods (or both) at a 1.4-mL/min flow rate. The data obtained show differences (p < 0.01) from both extraction or detection methods. The highest contents of free sugars studied occur in samples extracted with water. 相似文献
