Structure and switching of single-stranded DNA tethered to a charged nanoparticle surface

Using a molecular theory, we investigate the temperature-dependent self-assembly of single-stranded DNA(ss DNA)tethered to a charged nanoparticle surface. Here the size, conformations, and charge properties of ss DNA are taken into account. The main results are as follows: i) when the temperature is lower than the critical switching temperature, the ss DNA will collapse due to the existence of electrostatic interaction between ss DNA and charged nanoparticle surface; ii)for the short ss DNA chains with the number of bases less than 10, the switching of ss DNA cannot happen, and the critical temperature does not exist; iii) when the temperature increases, the electrostatic attractive interaction between ss DNA and charged nanoparticle surface becomes weak dramatically, and ss DNA chains will stretch if the electrostatic attractive interaction is insufficient to overcome the elastic energy of ss DNA and the electrostatic repulsion energy. These findings accord well with the experimental observations. It is predicted that the switching of ss DNA will not happen if the grafting densities are too high.     

单分散的二氧化硅微球表面印迹壳层的制备及其对食品包装材料中邻苯二甲酸二苄酯的检测

以邻苯二甲酸二苄酯(DBz P)为模板,以Stber和"种子生长法"相结合获得的二氧化硅微球为载体,采用表面印迹技术成功制备了纳米印迹壳层(MIPs)。采用红外光谱与扫描电镜对其结构和形貌进行表征,同时进行了一系列的吸附性能实验,结果表明,MIPs达到平衡吸附的时间约为30 min,吸附行为符合伪二级动力学。等温吸附实验结果表明,室温条件下MIPs的最大吸附量达47.35 mg/g。对不同温度条件下的等温实验数据进行拟合发现,Langmuir模型与实验数据的吻合度比Freundlich模型更高;Scatchard拟合结果证实该印迹壳层仅含1种结合位点,且印迹位点为均相分布。选择性吸附实验表明MIPs对DBz P的吸附明显高于其他结构类似物。MIPs经10次循环吸附后,吸附效率为83%,表明MIPs具有较长的使用寿命。采用超高效液相色谱(UPLC)技术,以MIPs为吸附剂提取食品包装材料中的DBzP,其加标回收率为88.8%~93.1%,相对标准偏差低于6%。MIPs可作为食品及其包装材料中DBz P提取的备选材料。     

Zero-determinant strategy:An underway revolution in game theory

Repeated games describe situations where players interact with each other in a dynamic pattern and make decisions according to outcomes of previous stage games. Very recently, Press and Dyson have revealed a new class of zero-determinant(ZD) strategies for the repeated games, which can enforce a fixed linear relationship between expected payoffs of two players, indicating that a smart player can control her unwitting co-player’s payoff in a unilateral way [Proc. Acad. Natl. Sci.USA 109, 10409(2012)]. The theory of ZD strategies provides a novel viewpoint to depict interactions among players,and fundamentally changes the research paradigm of game theory. In this brief survey, we first introduce the mathematical framework of ZD strategies, and review the properties and constrains of two specifications of ZD strategies, called pinning strategies and extortion strategies. Then we review some representative research progresses, including robustness analysis,cooperative ZD strategy analysis, and evolutionary stability analysis. Finally, we discuss some significant extensions to ZD strategies, including the multi-player ZD strategies, and ZD strategies under noise. Challenges in related research fields are also listed.     

高光谱成像仪等效焦面装调模组设计

高光谱成像仪CCD组件在装调时,纵向需要满足20 μm焦深要求,横向需要实现光谱维、空间维的对准。为了避免检测时对昂贵的CCD频繁安装、拆除,设计了一种等效焦面装调模组。等效模组按照CCD组件的实测尺寸精密制造,提供了可供显微镜观察的模拟光谱像。通过测量实际光谱像和模拟光谱像的位置差别能够获取修磨垫的修整量,并实现光谱像和CCD像元的横向对准。试验表明,存在工具显微镜测量误差、修磨垫加工误差、互换性误差时,光谱像面各处离焦量均小于焦深。试验中仅用3次迭代即达到MTF为0.3的要求,提高了装调效率和操作安全性。     

基于SONAH的水平轴风力机风轮噪声源识别

将统计最优近场声全息(SONAH)技术运用于小型水平轴风力机风轮噪声源识别中,采用近场声全息技术以弥补远场波束形成技术对低频段声源识别精度低的缺点。利用BK公司的60通道圆形声阵列对运行中的水平轴风力机在不同工况下进行声场信息采集分析,分析了噪声总声功率级的分布特征以及噪声源位置的分布规律。分析结果表明:风轮旋转时,以200 Hz以下的旋转噪声为主导,噪声源能量最大区域主要集中在叶片中部(r/R=0.5附近),并随着频率的增大,声源沿旋转面径向方向由叶片中部逐渐向叶尖分散。     

S型叶尖小翼对风轮近尾迹声辐射影响的实验研究

采用5因素5水平的正交实验方法,找到在不同尖速比下均具有较好功率放大效果的S型叶尖小翼结构,对其影响近尾迹流动与声辐射的特征进行了测试。发现该小翼可以打散从风轮叶尖脱落的叶尖涡结构,在测试方位面内形成多个涡量集中区域,而且使叶尖涡内高涡量区域减小,降低叶尖涡的强度。同时,该小翼还可以使叶尖附近的压力脉动衰减,高压力脉动区域缩小,降低声辐射的强度,有效降低近尾迹中的声压级,靠近风轮附近测点的最大声压级降幅超过10dB,在1倍风轮直径下游位置的声压级降幅为2~7 dB.对S型叶尖小翼影响近尾迹流动和声辐射的研究,为提高风力机性能和降噪途径的探索积累了经验.

Transport properties and anomalous fatigue effect of Ag/Bi0.9La0.lFeO3/La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 heterostructures

The transport properties and fatigue effect of Ag/Bi0.9La0.lFeO3/La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 heterostructures are described. By examining the I-V curves, an anomalous fatigue effect was found and its influences on resistive states were studied. I-V curves combined with C-f spectra were used to directly analyze the transport properties and fatigue effect. Compared to the first I-V cycle state, this structure shows more than one order increase of resistance after 100 cycles of ＂I-V curve training＂. The redistribution of oxygen vacancies in the depletion layer of Ag/Bi0.9La0.lFeO3 is believed to be responsible for the different resistance mechanisms and tenfold magnitude drop in resistance. The resistive switching is understood to be caused by electric field-induced carrier trapping and detrapping, which changes the depletion layer thickness at the Ag/Bi0.9La0.lFeO3 interface.
