Near-Field Fluorescence and Topography Characterization of a Single Nanometre Fluorophore by Apertureless Tip-Enhanced Scanning Near-Field Microscopy

Tip-enhanced near-field fluorescence and topography characterization of a single nanometre fluorophore is conducted by using an apertureless scanning near-field microscopy system. A fluorophore with size 80hm is mapped with a spatial resolution of 10hm. The corresponding near-field fluorescence data shows significant signal enhancement due to the apertureless tip-enhanced effect. With the nanometre spatial resolution capability and nanometre local tip-enhanced effect, the apertureless tip-enhanced scanning near-field microscopy may be further used to characterize a single molecule by realizing the local near-field spectrum assignment corresponding to topography at nanometre scale.     

Photon-Assisted Conductance Structure for a Quantum Dot

We investigate theoretically the electron transport of a two-level quantum dot irradiated under a weak laser field at low temperatures in the rotating wave approximation. Using the method of the Keldysh equation of motion for nonequilibrium Green function, we examine the conductance for the system with photon polarization perpendicular to the tunnelling current direction. It is demonstrated that by analytic analysing and numerical examples, a feature of conductance peak splitting appears, and the dependence of conductance on the incident laser frequency and self-energy are discussed.     

Vapour-to-Liquid Nucleation in Associating Lennard-Jones Fluids with Multiple Association Sites

The excess Helmholtz free energy functional for associating Lennard-Jones （L J） fluid is formulated in terms of a weighted density approximation for short-ranged interactions and a Weeks-Chandler-Andersen approximation for long-range attraction. Within the framework of density functional theory, phase equilibria, vapour-liquid surface tension and vapour-liquid nucleation properties including the density profile, work of formation, excess number of particles and critical supersaturation are investigated for associating LJ fluids with different numbers of association sites （M =1,2, 3, 4） per particle. The influences of association energy and association sites on phase equilibria, surface tension and vapour-liquid nucleation properties are discussed.

Electrolytic coloration of O2-doped NaCl crystals

O₂²⁻-doped NaCl crystals are colored electrolytically by using a pointed cathode and a flat anode at various temperatures and voltages, which mainly benefit from appropriate coloration temperatures and voltages as well as anode structure of used electrolysis apparatus. Characteristic OH⁻, U, V₂^m, U_A, V₂, V₃, O²⁻-V_a⁺ complex, F, R₁, R₂ and M absorption bands are observed in absorption spectra of the colored crystals. Production and conversion of color centers in electrolytic coloration is explained. Current-time curves for electrolytic colorations and their relationships with electrolytic colorations were given.     

Novel electroactive poly(arylene ether sulfone) copolymers containing pendant oligoaniline groups: Synthesis and properties

We present a series of novel poly(arylene ether sulfone) copolymers containing pendant oligoaniline groups. A novel monomer containing oligoaniline, 2,6‐difluorobenzoyl aniline tetramer (DFAT), was synthesized by reaction of 2,6‐difluorobenzoyl chloride and parent aniline tetramer and incorporated into the aforementioned copolymers via direct copolymerization with 4,4′‐dichlorodiphenyl sulfone (DCDPS), and 4,4′‐isopropylidene diphenol (BPA) using N,N′‐dimethylacetamide as solvent. The structures of these copolymers were confirmed by FTIR, ¹H NMR, and GPC. Spectral analysis of the copolymers in different oxidation states was investigated via UV‐visible spectra. The copolymers exhibited outstanding thermal stability and good solubility in various organic solvents. Their electroactivity, explored with cyclic voltammetry, was found to increase as the content of oligoaniline in the polymer increased. The electric and dielectric properties of the copolymers were also studied in detail. The electrochromic performance of the copolymers was investigated by electrochromic photographs and transmittance spectra; the color of the copolymer thin films changes from grey (at 0.0 V), to green (at 0.4 V), to blue (at 0.6 V) and to pearl blue (at 1.0 V) and the maximum transmittance change (ΔT) at 700 nm is 42.6% (90.7% ? 48.1%). © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Highly effective and enantioselective Phospho-Aldol reaction of diphenyl phosphite with N-alkylated isatins catalyzed by quinine

Cinchona alkaloids were first successfully reported to promote enantioselective Phospho-Aldol reaction of diphenyl phosphite to a variety of N-alkylated isatin derivatives in good to excellent yields (up to 99%) and moderate to good enantioselectivities (up to 73% ee) almost in no time.     

Preparation of Titania Monolith Column and Application in Determination of Benzoic Acid by HILIC

The titania monolith column has been synthesized through a template-free sol–gel route, and a simple and reliable method for the determination of benzoic acid by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography using the prepared titania monolith has been developed. The influences of acetonitrile, acetate buffer and buffer pH on the retention of benzoic acid were investigated. Benzoic acid in carbonated drinks and fruit beverages samples were determined within 5 min and quantitative analysis was carried out by external standard method with a correlation coefficient (R ²) of 0.9984. The relative standard deviation was 0.91 % and the recovery ranged from 92.5 to 101.3 %. The proposed method is suitable for the analysis of benzoic acid in beverage samples.
