Two-dimensional tellurium saturable absorber for ultrafast solid-state laser

Two-dimensional(2 D) Te nanosheets were successfully fabricated through the liquid-phase exfoliation(LPE) method. The nonlinear optical properties of 2 D Te nanosheets were studied by the open-aperture Z-scan technique. Furthermore, the continuous wave mode-locked Nd:YVO_4 laser was successfully realized by using 2 D Te as a saturable absorber(SA) for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. Ultrashort pulses as short as 5.8 ps were obtained at 1064.3 nm with an output power of 851 m W. This primary investigation indicates that the 2 D Te SA is a promising photonic device in the fields of ultrafast solid-state lasers.

Tuning the Reactivities of the Heteronuclear [AlnV3−nO7−n]+ (n=1, 2) Cluster Oxides towards Methane by Varying the Composition of the Metal Centers

The thermal gas-phase reactions of [Al₂VO₅]⁺ and [AlV₂O₆]⁺ with methane have been explored by using Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR) mass spectrometry complemented by high-level quantum chemical calculations. Both cluster ions chemisorbed methane as the major reaction channels at room temperature. [Al₂VO₅]⁺ could break only one C−H bond to liberate CH₃, whereas [AlV₂O₆]⁺ exhibited higher oxidizing ability such that it brings about the selective generation of formaldehyde. Mechanistic aspects are revealed and the crucial roles of the metal centers are discussed.

Nonlocal Effects of Low-Energy Excitations in Quantum-Spin-Liquid Candidate Cu_3Zn(OH)_6FBr

We systematically study the low-temperature specific heats for the two-dimensional kagome antiferromagnet,Cu_3Zn(OH)_6FBr.The specific heat exhibits a T~(1.7) dependence at low temperatures and a shoulder-like feature above it.We construct a microscopic lattice model of Z_2 quantum spin liquid and perform large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations to show that the above behaviors come from the contributions from gapped anyons and magnetic impurities.Surprisingly,we find the entropy associated with the shoulder decreases quickly with grain size d,although the system is paramagnetic to the lowest temperature.While this can be simply explained by a core-shell picture in that the contribution from the interior state disappears near the surface,the 5.9-nm shell width precludes any trivial explanations.Such a large length scale signifies the coherence length of the nonlocality of the quantum entangled excitations in quantum spin liquid candidate,similar to Pippard's coherence length in superconductors.Our approach therefore offers a new experimental probe of the intangible quantum state of matter with topological order.     

The effect of europium oxide impurity on the optical and physical properties of lithium potassium borate glass

The most hosts that is utilized in scientific application is borate glass. By using melt-quenching technique, five samples of lithium potassium borate (LKB) doped with different concentration of europium oxide (Eu₂O₃) were prepared. To investigate the influence of dopant on the optical and physical characteristics of the proposed glass, two methods have been applied (XRD, PL). The amorphous nature was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The physical parameters of the glass matrix doped by different oxidation state have been analyzed, these parameters are density, molar volume, ion concentration, inter-nuclear distance, and polaron radius. The exchange in the concentration of Eu³⁺ indicated the influence of Eu as a dopant on the photoluminescence (PL) emission of LKB glasses. The emission spectrum of LKB:Eu³⁺ show a chain of emission bands, which are attributed to ⁵ D ₀-⁷ F _r (r = 1–4) transition of Eu³⁺. The luminescence studies showed four peaks 590 (yellow), 613 (orange), 650 (red), and 698 nm (red) for all samples except sample 0, the high luminescence efficiency is in emitting orange light at 613 nm.

Simultaneous determination of pantoprazole and its two metabolites in dog plasma by HPLC

A simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method is developed and validated for simultaneous determination of pantoprazole and its two metabolites (pantoprazole sulfone and pantoprazole thioether) in dog plasma and applied to a pharmacokinetic study in Beagle dogs. Following a protein precipitation procedure, the samples are separated using reversed-phase HPLC (C18) by a gradient of acetonitrile and ammonium acetate (pH 6.0) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and quantitated using UV detection at 290 nm. Omeprazole is selected as the internal standard. The method has a lower limit of quantitation of 0.025 microg/mL for pantoprazole and its two metabolites, using 0.1-mL aliquots of plasma. The linear calibration curves are obtained in the concentration range of 0.025-10.0 microg/mL for three analytes. The intra- and interrun precision (relative standard deviation), calculated from quality control (QC) samples, is less than 13% for three analytes. The accuracy determined from QC samples is between -6.4% and 12%.     

Synthesis of dihydroxyurea and its application to the U/Pu split in the PUREX process

Dihydroxyurea (DHU) was synthesized using tri-associated solid phosgene [bis(trichloromethyl) carbonate] dissolved in dioxane and hydroxylamine hydrochloride dissolved in potassium acetate solution. The reduction of Pu(IV) by DHU was investigated using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. The reduction back-extraction behavior of Pu(IV) in 30% tri-butyl phosphate/kerosene was firstly investigated under conditions of various temperature, various DHU and HNO₃ concentrations and various phase contact times. The results showed that Pu(IV) in the organic phase can be stripped rapidly to the aqueous phase by DHU. Simulating the 1B contactor of the PUREX process using a 0.1 M DHU in 0.36M nitric acid solution as the stripping agent, the separation factors of uranium/plutonium can reach 2.1·10⁴. This indicates that DHU is a promising salt free agent for uranium/plutonium separation.
