The electrical properties and phase transformation of PLZST 2/85/13/2 antiferroelectric thin films on different bottom electrode

Pb_0.97La_0.02(Zr_0.85Sn_0.13Ti_0.02)O₃ (PLZST 2/85/13/2) antiferroelectric thin films were deposited on Pt(111)/Ti/SiO₂/Si and LaNiO₃(LNO)/SiO₂/Si substrates through a modified sol-gel process. The phase structure and microstructure of PLZST 2/85/13/2 antiferroelectric thin films were analysed by x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microcopy (SEM) and field-emission SEM (FE-SEM). The antiferroelectric nature of the PLZST 2/85/13/2 thin films on two electrodes was demonstrated by the C-V (capacitance-voltage) and P-E (polarization-electric field) measurement. The maximum polarizations for PLZST 2/85/13/2 films on Pt and LNO electrodes were 42 and 18 μC/cm², respectively. The temperature dependence of the dielectric property of the PLZST 2/85/13/2 films was measured under different dc electric fields. Also, the phase transformation of the PLZST 2/85/13/2 films was studied in detail as a function of temperature and dc electric field.     

Effect of the surface-modifying macromolecules on the duration of the surface functionalization

Functionalization of polystyrene films by the preferential surface enrichment of surface-modifying macromolecules (SMM) to achieve a hydrophilic surface with long effective duration is described. The comb-like amphiphilic copolymers (PKG-g-PS) based on styrene-maleic anhydride copolynier (SMA) backbone was synthesized by esterification of SMA with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). When PEG-g-PS was melt blended with polystyrene, the preferential surface enrichment of PEG-g-PS was much evident resulting in the large increase of the surface polarity. The effective duration of the surface functionalizatoin was also hugely extended as SMMs were added into the blends. Furthermore, more polyether chain segments on PEG-g-PS could selectively migrate to the surface by the inducement of polar solvent. Compared with the PEG-g-PS/PS and PEG/PEG-g-PS/PS blends, the surface polarity and the effective duration of surface modification both increased greatly when PEG-g-PS was used as the compatibilizer of PEG/PS blends. It was an effective solution to balance the conflict between the duration and efficiency of the surface-modifying additives.     

Effect of Zn substitution for Co on the transport properties of Y BaCo4O7

Electrical resistivity and Seebeck coefficients of Y BaCo_4−xZn_xO₇ (x=0.0,0.5,1.0,2.0) were investigated in the temperature range 350-1000 K. It was found that the electrical resistivity and activation energy increase with increasing Zn concentration, while Seebeck coefficients do not increase but decrease when electrical resistivity increases. We explained the increase of electrical resistivity and the drop of Seebeck coefficients for Zn-substituted samples by the decrease of carrier mobility, rather than of carrier concentration. The effect of oxygen absorption and desorption on the electrical resistivity and Seebeck coefficients was also investigated. An abrupt change of transport properties happens at about 650 K for x=0.0 and 0.5 samples measured in oxygen. For x=1.0 and 2.0 samples, however, such change disappears and the transport behavior in oxygen is almost same as that in nitrogen due to the significant suppression of oxygen diffusion caused by the higher Zn concentration in these samples.     

光纤量子密码网络

 数字通信和数字信号处理领域的快速发展直接推动了20世纪后半叶兴起的信息革命。今天的数字信息系统仍然只在经典物理的范畴。每一个比特的信息都能完全的被经典器件描述，比如说一个晶体管或者微处理器的输入电压高低来代表0或者1。然而，信息也能通过量子力学的方式来处理和传输，这就产生了全新的量子信息科学。量子信息科学的一个典型应用就是量子密码术，在过去的十几年中发展十分迅速，美国和欧洲甚至都已经有比较成熟的商业产品。那么，什么是量子密码术，它的基本工作原理是什么，量子密码网络又是解决什么问题的。希望通过本文的叙述，读者能有大致的了解。     

柔性ITO衬底电化学沉积制备Cu/Cu2O薄膜

研究了使用电化学沉积法于碱性条件下在柔性ITO衬底上制备Cu/Cu₂O薄膜的方法。循环伏安曲线表明Cu₂O与Cu的阴极峰分别位于-500 mV(vs Ag/AgCl)和-800 mV(vs Ag/AgCl)附近。利用循环伏安法考察了生长温度和电解液pH值等对Cu₂O与Cu阴极峰电位的影响,阴极峰随生长温度的升高以及pH值的降低而略向阳极移动,沉积电流也随之相应增大。与弱酸性条件相比,上述两个阴极峰随pH值升高而移动的程度明显减小,这可能与碱性条件下C₃H₆O电离程度增大以及C₃H₆O根作为配体的过量程度有关。通过X射线衍射光谱和扫描电子显微镜的表征证实,在所研究的生长温度区间和pH值内可利用电化学沉积法在柔性ITO衬底上制备Cu/Cu₂O纳米混晶薄膜。在相同的生长温度和pH条件下,电化学沉积电位对样品表面形貌和晶体性质具有较大影响。

Synthesis of PMHDO‐g‐PDEAEA well‐defined amphiphilic graft copolymer via successive living coordination polymerization and SET‐LRP

A series of well‐defined amphiphilic graft copolymer containing hydrophobic polyallene‐based backbone and hydrophilic poly(2‐(diethylamino)ethyl acrylate) (PDEAEA) side chains was synthesized by sequential living coordination polymerization of 6‐methyl‐1,2‐heptadiene‐4‐ol (MHDO) and single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) of 2‐(diethylamino)ethyl acrylate (DEAEA). Ni‐catalyzed living coordination polymerization of MHDO was first performed in toluene to give a well‐defined double‐bond‐containing poly(6‐methyl‐1,2‐heptadiene‐4‐ol) (PMHDO) homopolymer with a low polydispersity (M_w/M_n = 1.10). Next, 2‐chloropropionyl chloride was used for the esterification of pendant hydroxyls in every repeating unit of the homopolymer so that the homopolymer was converted to PMHDO‐Cl macroinitiator. Finally, SET‐LRP of DEAEA was initiated by the macroinitiator in tetrahydrofuran/H₂O using CuCl/tris(2‐(dimethylamino)ethyl)amine as catalytic system to afford well‐defined PMHDO‐g‐PDEAEA graft copolymers (M_w/M_n ≤ 1.22) through the grafting‐from strategy. The critical micelle concentration (cmc) was determined by ?uorescence spectroscopy with N‐phenyl‐1‐naphthylamine as probe and the micellar morphology was visualized by transmission electron microscopy. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Novel perfluorocyclobutyl aryl ether‐based well‐defined amphiphilic block copolymer

A series of fluorine‐containing amphiphilic diblock copolymers comprising hydrophobic poly(p‐(2‐(p‐tolyloxy)perfluorocyclobutoxy)phenyl methacrylate) (PTPFCBPMA) and hydrophilic poly(2‐(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDEAEMA) segments were synthesized via successive reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerizations. RAFT homopolymerization of p‐(2‐(p‐tolyloxy)perfluorocyclobutoxy)phenyl methacrylate was first initiated by 2,2′‐azobisisobutyronitrile using cumyl dithiobenzoate as chain transfer agent, and the results show that the procedure was conducted in a controlled way as confirmed by the fact that the number‐average molecular weights increased linearly with the conversions of the monomer while the polydispersity indices kept below 1.30. Dithiobenzoate‐capped PTPFCHPMA homopolymer was then used as macro‐RAFT agent to mediate RAFT polymerization of 2‐(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate, which afforded PTPFCBPMA‐b‐PDEAEMA amphiphilic diblock copolymers with different block lengths and narrow molecular weight distributions (M_w/M_n ≤ 1.28). The critical micelle concentrations of the obtained amphiphilic diblock copolymers were determined by fluorescence spectroscopy technique using N‐phenyl‐1‐naphthylamine as probe. The morphology and size of the formed micelles were investigated by transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering, respectively. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
