We succeeded in synthesizing ZnO nanorods by nanoparticle assisted pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) without using any catalyst where nanoparticles formed by condensation of ablated particles play an important role. The nanorods have an average size of about 120 nm. Stimulated emission was observed from ZnO nanorods at 388 nm by optical pumping. The size-controlling of nanorods can be achieved by controlling the size and the density of these nanoparticles. PACS 61.46.+w; 81.07.Bc; 78.66.Hf; 78.67.Bf; 81.16.Mk. 相似文献
Thin films of LiNbO3 were deposited by pulsed-laser deposition (PLD). Crystalline and transparent films were deposited on a sapphire substrate at 400 °C, in 100 mTorr of oxygen, with a fluence lower than 1.2 J/cm2. Droplet free films were deposited with low ablation laser fluence by the eclipse method, and waveguide losses were 15.9 dB/cm and 3.1 dB/cm. Subsequently, second-harmonic generation (SHG) was achieved by waveguide mode phase matching. The center wavelength of the matching spectrum was 853 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) was 19 nm. PACS 42.70.Mp; 52.38.Mf; 68.55.Jk; 77.84.Dy; 81.15.-z 相似文献
A gold thin film was machined by laser ablation using a femtosecond laser with mask patterns in the shape of lines and numbers. The patterns were successfully transferred with proper focusing and laser fluence. The optimal femtosecond laser fluence to keep the line width was about 5.2 mJ/cm2 on the mask, and 99 mJ/cm2 on the film. The processing resolution was 13 μm, and the narrowest line width was about 4 μm. 相似文献
The coordination polymerization of silyl‐protected ω‐alkenols such as ω‐alken‐α‐oxytriisopropylsilanes 1 provides poly(ω‐alkenyl‐α‐oxytriisopropylsilalne)s with a highly isospecific microstructure ([mmmm] > 95%) when a combination of [OSSO]‐type bis(phenolato) dichloro zirconium(IV) complex 2 and dried methylaluminoxane is used as the precatalyst and activator, respectively. The resulting siloxy‐substituted polymers could be efficiently transformed into the corresponding functionalized polyolefins, which contained up to 90% acetyl groups and ≈7% hydroxy groups in the terminal side chains.
Our previous studies of action spectra for UV‐B‐induced anthocyanin accumulation in cultured carrot cells indicated that a reduced form of pterin, possibly tetrahydrobiopterin, contributes to UV‐B photoreception. In this report, we provide additional evidence for the involvement of pterin in UV‐B light sensing. UV‐B‐induced phenylalanine ammonia‐lyase (PAL) activity was considerably suppressed by N‐acetylserotonin (an inhibitor of tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthesis), and this suppression was partially recovered by adding biopterin or tetrahydrobiobiopterin. In addition, protein(s) specifically bound to biopterin were detected by radiolabeling experiments in N‐acetylserotonin‐treated cells. Furthermore, diphenyleneiodonium, a potent inhibitor of electron transfer, completely suppressed UV‐B‐induced PAL activity. These results suggest the occurrence of an unidentified UV‐B photoreceptor (other than UVR8, the tryptophan‐based UV‐B sensor originally identified in Arabidopsis) with reduced pterin in carrot cells. After reexamining published action spectra, we suggest that anthocyanin synthesis is coordinately regulated by these two UV‐B sensors. 相似文献
We have developed an efficient method for preparation of triazolamers using a dicobalt hexacarbonyl complex of propargyl azides (CPA) as a synthetic component. Several types of CPAs possessing the side chains found in the natural amino acids were prepared by Nicholas reaction as well as by a reaction of propargyl azides with dicobalt octacarbonyl. Triazolamers with both amino and carboxyl termini were readily synthesized by repetitive reaction sequence involving a copper-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition followed by an oxidative deprotection. 相似文献
A facile new method that combines electrospray and hydrothermal treatment is used to prepare mesoporous core-shell TiO(2) spheres with high specific surface areas and high pore volumes. Interestingly, the resulting TiO(2) spheres are composed of anatase TiO(2) nanocrystals with exposed step-like {001} and smooth {010} facets. The percentage of exposed {001} facets can be adjusted by changing the experimental parameters used in the electrospray and hydrothermal treatment processes, such as the contents of poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) and acetic acid. The combination of high specific surface area (>100 m(2) g(-1)), high pore volume (>0.30 cm(3) g(-1)), useful pore size (10-15 nm), spherical core-shell structure, and exposed high energy facets makes these TiO(2) spheres an important candidate for use in many photoelectrochemical applications. The formation mechanism of the mesoporous TiO(2) spheres is also studied. The great advantage of this method is that interesting and complicated mesoporous superstructures can be prepared using electrospray technology. 相似文献
A10(PO4)6(OH)2 (A = Ca and Sr)-supported Pt catalysts were prepared and their catalytic activity in NO reduction were investigated. The Sr10(PO4)6(OH)2-supported catalyst had high catalytic activity in the C3H6?CNO?CO2 reaction; the activity was higher than that of the ??-Al2O3-supported catalyst at 300 °C. The basicity of the apatite supports would affect the chemical state of Pt on catalyst, resulting in promotion of NO reduction. 相似文献
In this article, we show that the space of nodal rational curves, which is so called a Severi variety (of rational curves), on any non-singular projective surface is always
equipped with a natural Einstein–Weyl structure, if the space is 3-dimensional. This is a generalization of the Einstein–Weyl
structure on the space of smooth rational curves on a complex surface, given by Hitchin. As geometric objects naturally associated to Einstein–Weyl structure,
we investigate null surfaces and geodesics on the Severi varieties. Also, we see that if the projective surface has an appropriate
real structure, then the real locus of the Severi variety becomes a positive definite Einstein–Weyl manifold. Moreover, we
construct various explicit examples of rational surfaces having 3-dimensional Severi varieties of rational curves. 相似文献
