Using simple known methods and results of classical perturbation theory, especially those due to Nekhoroshev and Neishtadt, we study the energy exchanges between the rotational and the translational degrees of freedom in a particular model representing the planar motion of a rigid body in a bounded analytic potential. We prove that, if the angular velocity is initially large, then the energy exchanges are small,O(
–1), for times growing exponentially with, |t|exp. We also deduce that in a scattering process from a (smooth) potential barrier, the overall change in the rotational energy of the incoming body is exponentially small in, exp(–. The results are interpreted in the light of an old conjecture by Boltzmann and Jeans on the existence of very large time scales for equilibrium in statistical systems containing high-frequency degrees of freedom (purely classical freezing of the high-frequency degrees of freedom); the rotating object is, in this interpretation, a (classical) molecule, which moves in an external field, or collides with the wall of a container. Two different limits of large are considered, namely the limit of large rotational energy, and (as is interesting for the molecular interpretation) the limit of point mass, at finite rotational energy. 相似文献
Light polymeric soundproofing materials(density = 63 kg/m~3) of interest for the transportation industry were fabricated through electrospinning. Blankets of electrospun polyvinylpyrrolidone(average fiber diameter =(1.6 ± 0.5) or(2.8 ± 0.5) μm) were obtained by stacking disks of electrospun mats. The sound absorption coefficients were measured using the impedance tube instrument based on ASTM E1050 and ISO 10534-2. For a given set of disks(from a minimum of 6) the sound absorption coefficient changed with the frequency(in the range 200–1600 Hz) following a bell shape curve with a maximum(where the coefficient is greater than 0.9) that shifts to lower frequencies at higher piled disks number and greater fiber diameter. This work showed that electrospinning produced sound absorbers with reduced thickness(2–3 cm) and excellent sound-absorption properties in the low and medium frequency range. 相似文献
Interfacial engineering provides an important tool for optimizing the performances of optoelectronic devices. We show that poly[(2,7-(9,9′-dioctyl)fluorene)-alt-(2,7-(9,9′-bis(5″-trimethylammonium bromide)pentyl)fluorene)])], an alcohol-soluble π-conjugated polymer based on polyfluorene backbone and ammonium groups on the alkyl side chains, is capable of modifying the interface between the organic layer and the metal cathode in both organic solar cells and light-emitting diodes based on commercial materials and conventional architectures, improving their performances. The introduction of the cathode interlayer enhances the efficiency of a red-emitting phosphorescent OLED by 15% and decreases its turn-on voltage. The same polymer improves the power conversion efficiency of a PTB7/PC71BM solar cell by 55% and shows a beneficial effect in terms of device stability. 相似文献
Compared to conventional preparation methods for supported heterogeneous catalysts, the use of colloidal nanoparticles (NPs) allows for a precise control over size, size distribution, and distribution/location of the NPs on the support. However, common colloidal syntheses have restrictions that limit their applicability for industrial catalyst preparation. We present a simple, surfactant‐free, and scalable preparation method for colloidal NPs to overcome these restrictions. We demonstrate how precious‐metal NPs are prepared in alkaline methanol, how the particle size can be tuned, and how supported catalysts are obtained. The potential of these colloids in the preparation of improved catalysts is demonstrated by two examples from heterogeneous catalysis and electrocatalysis. 相似文献
Supramolecular chemistry is moving into a direction in which the composition of a chemical equilibrium is no longer determined by thermodynamics but by the efficiency with which kinetic states can be populated by energy consuming processes. Herein, we show that DNA is ideally suited for programming chemically fueled dissipative self‐assembly processes. Advantages of the DNA‐based systems presented in this study include a perfect control over the activation site for the chemical fuel in terms of selectivity and affinity, highly selective fuel consumption that occurs exclusively in the activated complex, and a high tolerance for the presence of waste products. Finally, it is shown that chemical fuels can be used to selectively activate different functions in a system of higher complexity embedded with multiple response pathways. 相似文献
We show how the redox potentials of carbon nanodots (CNDs) can be modulated by employing quinones as electroactive precursors during a microwave‐assisted synthesis. We prepared and characterized a redox library of CNDs, demonstrating that this approach can promote the use of carbon nanodots for ad hoc applications, including photocatalysis. 相似文献

We discuss the -adic formula (0.3) of P. Th. Young, in the framework of Dwork's theory of the hypergeometric equation. We show that it gives the value at 0 of the Frobenius automorphism of the unit root subcrystal of the hypergeometric crystal. The unit disk at 0 is in fact singular for the differential equation under consideration, so that it's not a priori clear that the Frobenius structure should extend to that disk. But the singularity is logarithmic, and it extends to a divisor with normal crossings relative to in . We show that whenever the unit root subcrystal of the hypergeometric system has generically rank 1, it actually extends as a logarithmic -subcrystal to the unit disk at 0. So, in these optics, ``singular classes are not supersingular'. If, in particular, the holomorphic solution at 0 is bounded, the extended logarithmic -crystal has no singularity in the residue class of 0, so that it is an -crystal in the usual sense and the Frobenius operation is holomorphic. We examine in detail its analytic form.
