激波与椭圆形重气柱相互作用的PLIF实验

在水平激波管中,采用平面激光诱发荧光(planar laser-induced fluorescence, PLIF)方法对椭圆形重气柱界面的Richtmyer-Meshkov不稳定性进行实验。气柱由SF₆混入一定比例的丙酮蒸气构成,环境气体为空气。通过改变椭圆形气柱的长短轴比值,得到了激波马赫数为1.25时,3种初始界面的演化形态。通过相对体积分数标定,得到了界面失稳演化过程中的相对体积分数分布,观察到了激波作用后界面气体聚集、转移、消散等现象。实验结果发现,对于流向轴长与展向轴长之比较大的气柱界面,初始界面产生的涡量更大且分布更广,其界面不稳定性发展得越迅速和剧烈。失稳发展迅速的界面甚至出现涡对碰撞并产生尾部射流结构的现象。初始界面直接决定了失稳发展初期形成的涡对强度和间距,并对后期演化有重要影响。     

Phenoxazine-Dibenzothiophene Sulfoximine Emitters Featuring Both Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence and Aggregation Induced Emission

In this work, we demonstrate dibenzothiophene sulfoximine derivatives as building blocks for constructing emitters featuring both thermally activated delayed fluorescent (TADF) and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties, with multiple advantages including high chemical and thermal stability, facile functionalization, as well as tunable electron-accepting ability. A series of phenoxazine-dibenzothiophene sulfoximine structured TADF emitters were successfully synthesized and their photophysical and electroluminescent properties were evaluated. The electroluminescence devices based on these emitters displayed diverse emissions from yellow to orange and reached external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) of 5.8% with 16.7% efficiency roll-off at a high brightness of 1000 cd·m⁻².     

Paeonenoides D and E: Two New Nortriterpenoids from Paeonia lactiflora and Their Inhibitory Activities on NO Production

Two new nortriterpenoids, paeonenoides D and E ( 1 and 2 , resp.), together with seven known compounds, were isolated from the roots of Paeonia lactiflora. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic evidence. Compounds 1 – 7 were screened for inhibitory effects against NO production in LPS‐induced RAW246.7 macrophages and for cytotoxic activities against HL‐60, Hep‐G2, and SK‐OV‐3 cell lines. Compounds 1 – 3 and 5 – 7 exhibited inhibitory activities with IC₅₀ values in the range of 9.6–32.2 μM . Triterpenoids with an epoxide ring and a free COOH function, 1 – 3 , showed effectively increased activities compared with other pentacyclic triterpenoids. Compounds 1 – 6 showed significant cytotoxic activities against the Hep‐G2 cell line and modest cytotoxic activities against HL‐60 and SK‐OV‐3 cell lines.     

Microwave plasma torch mass spectrometry for the direct detection of copper and molybdenum ions in aqueous liquids

Microwave plasma torch (MPT) is a simple and low power‐consumption ambient ion source. And the MPT Mass spectra of many metal elements usually exhibit some novel features different from their inductively coupled plasma (ICP) mass spectra, which may be helpful for metal element analysis. Here, we presented the results about the MPT mass spectra of copper and molybdenum elements by a linear ion trap mass spectrometer (LTQ). The generated copper or molybdenum contained ions in plasma were characterized further in collision‐induced dissociated (CID) experiments. These researches built a novel, direct and sensitive method for the direct analysis of trace levels of copper and molybdenum in aqueous liquids. Quantitative results showed that the limit of detection (LOD) by using MS² procedure was estimated to be 0.265 µg/l (ppb) for copper and 0.497 µg/l for molybdenum. The linear dynamics ranges cover at least 2 orders of magnitude and the analysis of a single aqueous sample can be completed in 5–6 min with a reasonable semi‐quantitative sense. Two practical aqueous samples, milk and urine, were also analyzed qualitatively with reasonable recovery rates and RSD. These experimental data demonstrated that the MPT MS is able to turn into a promising and hopeful tool in field analysis of copper and molybdenum ions in water and some aqueous media, and can be applied in many fields, such as environmental controlling, hydrogeology, and water quality inspection. Moreover, MPT MS could also be used as the supplement of ICP‐MS for the rapid and in‐situ analysis of metal ions. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Study on scattering correction in fast neutron tomography at NECTAR facility

Fast neutron tomography has been established as an inspection and detection tool at the NECTAR facility at the FRM-II reactor.Scattered neutrons from the object become a major disturbance and bring in artifacts and deviations in reconstruction results,especially for hydrogenous material object.In this article,an iterative scattering correction method for fast neutron tomography was proposed.In each loop of iteration the scattering component of the projections will be simulated by Monte-Carlo program MCNPX based on the previous reconstruction result and then it will be subtracted from original projections.The differences between scattering components at different perspectives were quantitatively evaluated and an average scattering component image was used for all projections finally.Smooth and uniform slices with more clear edges were obtained and the new reconstructed attenuation coefficients are quite close to the real one compared to the results without scattering correction,in which case the relative error of the reconstructed attenuation coefficients is about 10%–30%.     

Experiments and analysis of thin tungsten slice and W/Cu brazing for primary collimator scraper in CSNS/RCS

According to the requirements for the beam collimation system of the rapid cycling synchrotron(RCS)of China Spallation Neutron Source(CSNS),the main structure of a scraper of primary collimator is made by W/Cu brazing,in which the thickness of tungsten slice is 0.17 mm.In order to get the best mechanical properties,the brazing temperature is suggested to be controlled under the recrystallization temperature of tungsten,while the recrystallization temperature is affected directly by the thickness of tungsten.Because of little research and application on the brazing of thin tungsten slice of 0.17 mm and copper,tensile tests are done to get the mechanical properties of tungsten slices which experience different brazing temperatures.In keeping the inner relationships between the mechanical properties and temperature,another experiment is done by using SEM to scan the microstructures including the size and distribution of crystals.Finally we determine the recrystallization temperature of tungsten slice of 0.17 mm,and get the best parameters of W/Cu brazing for scrapers of primary collimator in CSNS/RCS.     

A micro-scale strain rosette for residual stress measurement by SEM Moiré method

In this paper,a new method combining focused ion beam(FIB)and scanning electron microscope(SEM)Moirétechnique for the measurement of residual stress at micro scale is proposed.The FIB is employed to introduce stress relief like the macro ring-core method and fabricate gratings with a frequency of 5000 lines/mm on the measured area of the sample surface.Three groups of gratings in different radial directions are manufactured in order to form a micro-scale strain rosette.After milling ring-core by FIB,the deformation incurred by relief of the stress will be recorded with the strain rosette.The displacement/strain field can be measured using SEM scanning Moiréwith random phase-shifting algorithm.In this study,the Nickel alloy GH4169 sample(which was processed by laser shock peening)is selected as a study object to determine its residual stress.The results showed that the components of the in-plane principal stresses were-359 MPa and-207 MPa,respectively,which show good agreement with the results obtained from the available literature.     

Highly stable amorphous indium‐zinc‐oxide thin‐film transistors with back‐channel wet‐etch process

The stabilities of amorphous indium‐zinc‐oxide (IZO) thin film transistors (TFTs) with back‐channel‐etch (BCE) structure are investigated. A molybdenum (Mo) source/drain electrode was deposited on an IZO layer and patterned by hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂)‐based etchants. Then, after etching the Mo layer, SF₆ plasma with direct plasma mode was employed and optimized to improve the bias stress stability. Scanning electron microscopy and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis revealed that the etching residues were removed efficiently by the plasma treatment. The modified BCE‐ TFTs showed only threshold voltage shifts of 0.25 V and –0.20 V under positive/negative bias thermal stress (P/NBTS, V_GS = ±30 V, V_DS = 0 V and T = 60 °C) after 12 hours, respectively.

Fermi liquid breakdown and evidence for superconductivity in YFe2Ge2

In the d‐electron system YFe₂Ge₂, an unusually high and temperature dependent Sommerfeld ratio of the specific heat capacity C /T ～ 100 mJ/(mol K²) and an anomalous power law temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity signal Fermi liquid breakdown, probably connected to a close‐by quantum critical point. Full resistive transitions and DC diamagnetic screening fractions of up to 80% suggest that pure samples of YFe₂Ge₂ superconduct below 1.8 K. (© 2014 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH &Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Reducing the Entropic Uncertainty via Non-Markovian Effect and Detuning in the Presence of Quantum Memory ∗

The influence of non-Markovian effect and detuning on the entropic uncertainty in the presence of quantum memory is studied by the time-convolutionless master-equation approach. The result shows that the entropic uncertainty in the presence of quantum memory is obviously dependent on both detuning and non-Markovian effect. The bigger the detuning is and the stronger the non-Markovian effect is, the smaller the entropic uncertainty is. Its physical explanation is that the known quantum information stored in the quantum memory can reduce or eliminate the entropic uncertainty about the measurement outcomes of another particle, which is entangled with the quantum memory.
