Electrochemical performance of modified artificial graphite as anode material for lithium ion batteries

Artificial graphite anode material was modified by coating an amorphous carbon layer on the particle surface via a sol-gel and pyrolysis route. The electrochemical measurements demonstrate that appropriate carbon coating can increase the specific capacity and the initial coulombic efficiency of the graphite material, while excessive carbon coating leads to the decrease in specific capacity. Thick coating layer is obviously unfavorable for the lithium ion diffusion due to the increased diffusion distance, but the decreased specific surface area caused by carbon coating is beneficial to the decrease of initial irreversible capacity loss. The sample coated with 5 wt.% glucose exhibits a stable specific capacity of 340 mAhg^?1. Carbon coating can remarkably enhance the rate capability of the graphite anode material, which is mainly attributed to the increased diffusion coefficient of lithium ion.

Raman spectral imaging of a carbon nanotube intramolecular junction

Confocal Raman spectral imaging results are presented for a metal-to-semiconductor intramolecular junction (IMJ) on an isolated carbon nanotube. Spectra observed at the junction are consistent with the symmetry lowering expected from the occurrence of pentagon-heptagon defects to produce the chirality shift. The IMJ transition zone is sharp and preserves the nanotube diameter. These results have significant implications for the future use of IMJs as electronic devices, including how prevalent these structures are and how their growth may be rationally targeted. Raman imaging has been demonstrated to be a powerful tool for IMJ studies and provides a more accessible method for further studies of IMJ structure and growth.

Thermal noise limit in measuring the gravitational constant G using the angular acceleration method and the dynamic deflection method

A general comparison is made between two methods of measuring the gravitational constant G. The angular acceleration method can avoid the anelasticity effect since the torsion fiber is not twisted. The dynamic deflection method is similar in principle but it does not use feedback, therefore a major noise introduced by the feedback control system in the angular acceleration method can be avoided. Both methods have their advantages and can be performed with the same device. Based on different expressions of G, we have expressed the signal-to-noise ratio and calculated the thermal noise limit for both methods. In order to get a lower thermal noise limit, the dynamic deflection method should avoid resonance.     

Formation and photoluminescence of Y2O3–H3BO3:Eu3+ powders by mechanical alloying

Y₂O₃–H₃BO₃:Eu³⁺ powders were synthesized by the mechanical alloying (MA) method, and their structural and photoluminescent characteristics were investigated by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), and luminescence spectrophotometer. The crystallite size of the powder mixture milling for 30 minutes (min) by the Willaimson–Hall method was approximately 58.8 nm with strain of 0.00141; overall, the internal strain increased with the milling time (t_m). The morphology of the powder mixture with t_m, as observed by SEM, divided into three different stages: agglomeration (0 < t_m ≤ 30 min), disintegration (30min < t_m ≤ 120 min), and homogenization (120min < t_m ≤ 300 min). The transition temperature and the weight reduction rate of the sample powders were 645.58 °C and 2.851%, respectively. Furthermore, the photoluminescence of the powder mixture excited to 240 nm by a zenon discharge lamp (20 kW) was detected near 592 nm(⁵D_o → ⁷F₁), 613 nm, 628  (⁵D_o → ⁷F₂), and 650 nm (⁵D_o → ⁷F₃).

Difference-frequency ultrasound generation from microbubbles under dual-frequency excitation

The difference-frequency (DF) ultrasound generated by using parametric effect promises to improve detection depth owing to its low attenuation, which is beneficial for deep tissue imaging. With ultrasound contrast agents infusion, the harmonic components scattered from the microbubbles, including DF, can be generated due to the nonlinear vibration. A theoretical study on the DF generation from microbubbles under the dual-frequency excitation is proposed in formula based on the solution of the RPNNP equation. The optimisation of the DF generation is discussed associated with the applied acoustic pressure, frequency, and the microbubble size. Experiments are performed to validate the theoretical predictions by using a dual-frequency signal to excite microbubbles. Both the numerical and experimental results demonstrate that the optimised DF ultrasound can be achieved as the difference frequency is close to the resonance frequency of the microbubble and improve the contrast-to-tissue ratio in imaging.

Progress on tilted axis cranking covariant density functional theory for nuclear magnetic and antimagnetic rotation

Magnetic rotation and antimagnetic rotation are exotic rotational phenomena observed in weakly deformed or near-spherical nuclei, which are respectively interpreted in terms of the shears mechanism and two shearslike mechanism. Since their observations, magnetic rotation and antimagnetic rotation phenomena have been mainly investigated in the framework of tilted axis cranking based on the pairing plus quadrupole model. For the last decades, the covariant density functional theory and its extension have been proved to be successful in describing series of nuclear ground-states and excited states properties, including the binding energies, radii, single-particle spectra, resonance states, halo phenomena, magnetic moments, magnetic rotation, low-lying excitations, shape phase transitions, collective rotation and vibrations, etc. This review will mainly focus on the tilted axis cranking covariant density functional theory and its application for the magnetic rotation and antimagnetic rotation phenomena.
