Synthesis,characterization, and application of silver nanoparticle‐thiophenol nanocomposite film on the glassy carbon surface

In this study, 4‐thiophenol modified glassy carbon electrode was prepared by the reduction of 4‐diazothiophenol tetrafluoroborate salt. Silver nanoparticles were attached to the thiophenol modified surface to prepare a thiophenol‐silver nanoparticle composite film. 4‐Aminothiopenol molecules were deposited by self‐assembling technique to form multi‐layered nanofilms of TP/SNP/PhNH₂ on glassy carbon substrate. These surfaces were characterized by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, reflectance‐absorption infrared spectroscopy, and ellipsometry at each multilayer film growth process. Atomic force microscopic images of GC/TP/SNP/PhNH₂ surfaces were also acquired. The characterization methods show that the amine group containing surface permits the subsequent modification by a variety of coupling reactions for the immobilization of more complex systems. An application of the electrode modification for the determination of uric acid with a significantly lower detection limit is described. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

水热法合成蓝宝石的化学成分及光谱学表征

蓝宝石作为五大名贵宝石之一,经济价值极高,其中“皇家蓝”、“矢车菊蓝”最为昂贵。而水热法可合成出颜色与“皇家蓝”色极为相似的蓝宝石,且合成出的晶体较大,可通过切磨加工获得内部纯净的样品,仅凭外观及常规方法难以鉴别。选取了7颗水热法合成蓝色蓝宝石为实验对象,采用LA-ICP-MS、拉曼光谱仪、红外光谱仪、紫外-可见分光光度计和三维荧光光谱仪,对其化学成分、谱学特征进行研究,并与外观极为相似的天然蓝宝石、焰熔法合成蓝宝石进行对比分析。分析表明,水热法合成蓝宝石总体成分较为单一,而天然蓝宝石则含有丰富的微量元素。三种样品拉曼光谱均呈现典型的刚玉振动模式,显示A_1g和E_g振动模的拉曼峰。在红外光谱的指纹区,三种样品的吸收峰均无明显差别,与拉曼光谱的结果耦合。但在官能团区3 000～4 000 cm^-1波数范围,水热法合成蓝宝石存在由含水矿物包裹体产生的羟基振动峰,而天然蓝宝石和焰熔法合成蓝宝石未显示此特征。紫外-可见光谱表明三种样品均为Fe²⁺-Ti⁴⁺对致色,但水热法与焰熔法合成蓝宝...     

PDMS改性环氧树脂/Sm2O3复合涂层的近红外光谱及疏水性研究

以聚二甲基硅氧烷(PDMS)改性环氧树脂(HYSZ)为粘合剂,Sm₂O₃为功能颜料,纳米SiO₂为微纳结构改性剂,制备得到了一种同时具有良好疏水性能和附着力的近红外吸收涂层。系统分析了PDMS和HYSZ质量比、邻苯二甲酸二辛酯(DOP)添加量、总填料添加量、 Sm₂O₃和纳米SiO₂质量比对涂层性能的影响。结果表明：PDMS改性可明显降低涂层的表面能,从而使涂层的疏水性得到明显增强。利用DOP强化涂层韧性和微观搭桥作用可增强涂层整体性,从而可明显提高涂层的附着力和近红外吸收性能。涂层的表面粗糙度可随总填料添加量的增加而明显升高,进而可使涂层表现出更优的疏水性能。当涂层中PDMS和HYSZ质量比、 DOP添加量、总填料添加量、 Sm₂O₃和纳米SiO₂质量比分别为1∶9, 20%, 50%和5.5∶4.5时,涂层同时具有良好的近红外低反射率(59.1%)、疏水性能(水接触角为137°)及附着力...     

Fully rotationally resolved ZEKE photoelectron spectroscopy of C6H6 and C6D6: photoionization dynamics and geometry of the benzene cation

A comprehensive set of spectra for the benzene cation and the perdeuterated benzene cation has been recorded with full rotational resolution using zero kinetic energy photoelectron spectroscopy (ZEKE) at high resolution (up to 0.2 cm^?1), using a slow-rising extraction pulse. With different rovibronic levels in the S₁ 6^l state as intermediate resonance, the rotational transitions to the vibronic ground state of the cation have been recorded using two-colour, two-photon resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization. A simple spectator model has been employed to simulate the intensities of the ZEKE transitions. By fitting the simulations to the recorded spectra, improved values for the rotational constants and the Coriolis coupling parameters of benzene and perdeuterated benzene have been obtained. The CC and CH bond lengths of the cation have been deduced. The spectator model is shown to be reliable despite the fact that no specific allowance is made for the effect of final state interactions on the signal intensity.

The strong solution of the Monge–Ampère equation on the Wiener space for log-concave densities

Let (W,H,μ) be an abstract Wiener space, assume that $\text{d}\text{ν=L}\text{d}\text{μ}$ is a second probability measures on $\text{(W,}\text{B}\text{(W))}$ such that $\text{L=}\text{1}\text{c}\text{exp}\text{?f}$, with $\text{f∈}\text{D}{}_{\mathrm{2,1}}$ lower bounded and H-convex. Let $\text{T=I}{}_{\mathrm{W}}\text{+??,}\text{?∈}\text{D}{}_{\mathrm{2,1}}$, be the solution of the Monge problem transporting μ to ν and realizing the H-Wasserstein distance between μ and ν. We prove that $\text{?∈}\text{D}{}_{\mathrm{2,2}}$ hence the Gaussian Jacobian $\text{Λ=}\text{det}{}_2\text{(I+?}{}^2\text{?)}\text{exp}\text{{}\text{L}\text{??1/2|??|}{}_{\mathrm{H}}{}^2\text{}}$ is well-defined and T is the strong solution of the Monge–Ampère equation ΛL°T=1 a.s. on W.

Global Optimization: On Pathlengths in Min-Max Graphs

Let f be a smooth nondegenerate real valued function on a finite dimensional, compact and connected Riemannian manifold. The bipartite min-max graph is defined as follows. Its nodes are formed by the set of local minima and the set of local maxima. Two nodes (a local minimum and a local maximum) are connected in by means of an edge if some trajectory of the corresponding gradient flow connects them. Given a natural number k, we construct a function f such that the length of the shortest path in between two specific local minima exceeds k. The latter construction is independent of the underlying Riemannian metric.     

On the mechanism of the N,N‐dimethyl amination of Grignard reagents: a kinetic study

A direct kinetic study is reported for the electrophilic amination of substituted phenylmagnesium bromides with N,N‐dimethyl O‐(mesitylenesulfonyl)hydroxylamine in THF. Rate data, Hammett relationship, and activation entropy are consistent with a S_N2 displacement involving the attack of carbanions to sp³N in the amination reagent (AR).

Can Sobolev Inequality Be Written for Sharma-Mittal Entropy?

In this paper, we focus on Sobolev inequality in the context of Sharma-Mittal entropy. Using this new inequality, generalized entropic uncertainty relation in accordance with Sharma-Mittal entropy is derived and the pseudoadditivity relation has been obtained. This new entropic uncertainty relation has then been applied to physical examples such as one dimensional harmonic oscillator and Pösch-Teller potential. Finally, it has been shown that for certain values of the parameters of Sharma-Mittal measure, the present results reduce to the corresponding results of Shannon, Renyi and Tsallis measures.
