Why to synthesize vaterite polymorph of calcium carbonate on the cellulose matrix via sonochemistry process?

Vaterite is an important biomedical material due to its features such as high specific surface area, high solubility, high dispersion, and small specific gravity. The purposes of this article were to explore the growth mechanism of vaterite on the cellulose matrix via sonochmistry process. In the work reported herein, the influences of experimental parameters on the polymorph of calcium carbonate were investigated in detail. The calcium carbonate crystals on the cellulose matrix were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Experimental results revealed that all the reactants, solvent, and synthesis method played an important role in the polymorph of calcium carbonate. The pure phase of vaterite polymorph was obtained using Na₂CO₃ as reactant in ethylene glycol on the cellulose matrix via sonochmistry process. Based on the experimental results, one can conclude that the synthesis of vaterite polymorph is a system process.     

Influence of SiNx:H film properties according to gas mixture ratios for crystalline silicon solar cells

The Hydrogenated silicon nitride (SiN_x:H) using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition is widely used in photovoltaic industry as an antireflection coating and passivation layer. In the high temperature firing process, the SiN_x:H film should not change the properties for its use as high quality surface layer in crystalline silicon solar cells. For optimizing surface layer in crystalline silicon solar cells, by varying gas mixture ratios (SiH₄ + NH₃ + N₂, SiH₄ + NH₃, SiH₄ + N₂), the hydrogenated silicon nitride films were analyzed for its antireflection and surface passivation (electrical and chemical) properties. The film deposited with the gas mixture of SiH₄ + NH₃ + N₂ showed the best properties in before and after firing process conditions.The single crystalline silicon solar cells fabricated according to optimized gas mixture condition (SiH₄ + NH₃ + N₂) on large area substrate of size 156 mm × 156 mm (Pseudo square) was found to have the conversion efficiency as high as 17.2%. The reason for the high efficiency using SiH₄ + NH₃ + N₂ is because of the good optical transmittance and passivation properties. Optimized hydrogenated silicon nitride surface layer and high efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells fabrication sequence has also been explained in this study.     

Phase transformations and structural characteristics of AL–Cu–Co(–Si) decagonal phase

The phase transformations and structural characteristics of the Al-Cu-Co-Si alloy have been studied by neutron diffraction and high-resolution electron microscopy. The Al₆₅Cu_17.5Co_17.5 decagonal phase is stable in the temperature range between 973 K and 1350 K. At the low-temperature end, it relaxes to a microcrystalline approximant structure. At the high-temperature end, it melts directly into liquid. Two distinct orthorhombic phases are identified in the Al₆₃Cu_17.5Co_17.5Si₂ microcrystalline structure. They are composed of several structure units that can also construct the Penrose tiling. Because of lack of units, a single orthorhombic phase cannot undergo the transformation towards the high-temperature decagonal phase. An analysis of the orientation relationships between the CsCl and orthorhombic phases leads to the definition of Penrose tiling-like subnetworks inside the orthorhombic unit cells so that these orthorhombic phases can be regarded as the periodic patchworks of quasiperiodic subnetworks.

Allyl phthalazinone synthesis,polymerization and polymer properties

A phthalazinone monomer with an allyl group, i.e. 4-（3-allyl-4-hydroxyphenyl）phthalazin-1（2H）-one, was synthesized and then copolymerized with 4-（4-hydroxylphenyl）（2H）-phthalazin-1-one and 2,6- diflurobenzonitrile by means of aromatic nucleophilic polycondensation to provide a series of crosslinkable poly（aryl ether nitrile）s. The virgin copolymers exhibited good solubility in polar organic solvents with relative high molecular weights （Mw： 45,130-58,403, inherent viscosities： 0.58-0.75 dL/ g）. After cross-linking, the thermal stability and solvent resistance of the polymer increased.     

The High Energy X-ray telescope (HE) onboard the Insight-HXMT astronomy satellite

The Insight-Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope(Insight-HXMT) is a broadband X-ray and γ-ray(1-3000 ke V) astronomy satellite. One of its three main telescopes is the High Energy X-ray telescope(HE). The main detector plane of HE comprises 18 Na I(Tl)/Cs I(Na) phoswich detectors, where Na I(Tl) is used as the primary detector to measure ~ 20-250 ke V photons incident from the field of view(FOV) defined by collimators, and Cs I(Na) is used as the active shielding detector to Na I(Tl) by pulse shape discrimination. Additionally, Cs I(Na) is used as an omnidirectional γ-ray monitor. The HE collimators have a diverse FOV,i.e. 1.1°×5.7°(15 units), 5.7°×5.7°(2 units), and blocked(1 unit). Therefore, the combined FOV of HE is approximately5.7°×5.7°. Each HE detector has a diameter of 190 mm resulting in a total geometrical area of approximately 5100 cm2, and the energy resolution is ~15% at 60 ke V. For each recorded X-ray event by HE, the timing accuracy is less than 10 μs and the deadtime is less than 10 μs. HE is used for observing spectra and temporal variability of X-ray sources in the 20-250 ke V band either by pointing observations for known sources or scanning observations to unveil new sources. Additionally, HE is used for monitoring the γ-ray burst in 0.2-3 Me V band. This paper not only presents the design and performance of HE instruments but also reports results of the on-ground calibration experiments.

电枢膛内高速运动控制仿真与试验

电磁轨道发射的过程中,电枢在膛内高速运动时会受到电磁力、电枢初始正压力、摩擦力、空气阻力、烧蚀阻力等多种因素影响,电枢的出口速度呈现出在一定范围内波动的特征。为了提高电枢的出口速度精度,针对膛内电枢与轨道摩擦不均衡性和烧蚀程度不确定的特性,综合考虑脉冲成形网络的电路模型与电枢的动力学特征,建立了电枢在膛内的运动开环控制仿真模型。通过仿真,得出了脉冲电源模块触发时刻与电枢出口速度之间的关系,提出了电枢出口速度闭环控制模型,探究了电枢出口速度控制可行方案。结果表明：应用闭环控制算法,可实现对电枢出口速度的精确控制。     

改变激发环境调控Ho3+离子的上转换发光特性

稀土掺杂上转换发光材料的发光特性不仅依赖于基质材料本身,而且与其激发条件密切相关.本文主要是以Ho^3+离子为研究对象,在NaYF4和LiYF4这两种不同的基质中,研究其在不同激发条件下的上转换发光特性.通过共聚焦显微光谱测试系统,对比Ho^3+离子在NaYF4和LiYF4微米晶体中的发光特性.实验结果发现:Ho^3+离子在这两种不同基质中均展现出较强的荧光发射.然而,当激发功率增加时,在单颗粒个LiYF4微米晶体中,当激发功率增加时,Ho^3+离子则发射出较强绿光及微弱的红光,红绿比变化并不明显,其蓝光发射强度也相对较弱.当激发这两种微米粉末晶体时,结果发现:Ho^3+离子均发射较强的绿光发射并伴有微弱红光发射,两种晶体中的发射特性极其相似.由此可见,在常规测试条件下,一些特殊发光现象是很难被观测到的.同时,通过对其光谱特性的分析,对Ho^3+离子的发光机理进行了研究.
