A facile route to synthesize well‐defined polybutadiene (PBd) DendriMacs is described. In a highly modified approach to that recently published for the synthesis of polystyrene DendriMacs, a G1 polybutadiene (PBd) DendriMac has been synthesized in three simple and high yielding steps. The first step involves the synthesis of a three‐arm PBd mikto arm star in which one arm has a terminal hydroxy group introduced by the use of a protected functionalized initiator. Following fractionation of the star, the hydroxy group is deprotected and converted into an alkyl bromide moiety before coupling the star to a trifunctional core (1,1,1‐tris(4‐hydroxylphenyl)ethane) by a Williamson coupling reaction catalyzed by cesium carbonate to yield a G1 PBd DendriMac.
We demonstrate experimentally the generation of cross-polarized femtosecond pulses in BaF2 crystal in the UV region. We show that unsaturated cross-polarized wave generation in the UV is six times more efficient than in the visible region, and we deduce the corresponding wavelength dispersion of the third-order nonlinearity. 相似文献
The stabilizing effects of local enrichment are revisited. Diffusively coupled host-parasitoid and predator-prey metapopulations are shown to admit a stable fixed point, limit cycle or stable torus with a rich bifurcation structure. A linear toy model that yields many of the basic qualitative features of this system is presented. The further nonlinear complications are analyzed in the framework of the marginally stable Lotka-Volterra model, and the continuous time analog of the unstable, host-parasitoid Nicholson-Bailey model. The dependence of the results on the migration rate and level of spatial variations is examined, and the possibility of “nonlocal” effect of enrichment, where local enrichment induces stable oscillations at a distance, is studied. A simple method for basic estimation of the relative importance of this effect in experimental systems is presented and exemplified. 相似文献
Rees congruence semigroup , is one for which every
non-identity congruence is a Rees congruence. We show that the widely studied
semigroup of endomorphisms of a finite chain is a Rees congruence semigroup.

Propagation rate constants for the free radical polymerization of methacrylonitrile (MAN) have been obtained by pulsed laser photolysis (PLP). The temperature dependence of the propagation rate constants indicates a frequency factor of 10(6,43 ± 0,26) L · mol−1 · s−1 and an activation energy of 29,7 ± 1,5 kJ · mol−1. These parameters suggest that the relatively slow rate of propagation in MAN polymerization in relation to other common monomers (methyl methacrylate, styrene) can be attributed to the relative steric bulk and stability of the propagation species. 相似文献
Light-emitting porous amorphous silicon has been produced by anodization in HF of hydrogenated amorphous silicon films. The
maximal thickness of the porous films is limited by the onset of an instability which results in the formation of large channels
short-circuiting the amorphous layer. This is due to the high resistivity of the amorphous silicon films as compared to that
of the electrolyte. Confinement effects on the electron wavefunction are analyzed in situ using photoluminescence measurements in hydrofluoric acid and compared to those observed in porous crystalline silicon. For
crystalline silicon, a huge blue shift of the photoluminescence is observable upon reducing the size of the structures by
photo-etch, showing clear evidence of quantum confinement effects in this material. No shift has been observed when carrying
out the same experiment with amorphous silicon. This indicates that the extent of the wavefunction in the bandtail states
involved in luminescence is too small to be sensitive to confinement down to the minimum sizes of our porous material ( 3 nm). Measurements of the width and the temperature dependence of the photoluminescence demonstrate that the Urbach energy
does not change upon increasing the porosity, i.e., upon decreasing the size of the a-Si:H nanostructures, in contradiction with what has been reported in ultrathin a-Si:H multilayers.
