Kinetic-catalytic determination of osmium by fluorescence quenching with salicylfluorone and hydrogen peroxide

A highly sensitive and selective fluorescence-quenching kinetic method is proposed for the determination of trace osmium(IV), based on the catalytic effect of osmium(IV) on the salicylfluorone (_ex = 510 nm, _em = 535 nm)-H₂O₂ system at pH 9.3–9.6. Using the fixed time method, osmium(IV) in the range 0.008–0.6 ng/ml can be determined. The detection limit is 0.006 ng/ml. Over thirty anions and cations, including other platinum metal ions, do not interfere, even when present in large excess. The method has been applied successfully for the determination of osmium in a series of synthetic mixtures and refined ore with relative standard deviations of 2–6%.     

Optical spectra of an intracavity two-photon medium with sequeezed inputs

We consider an ensemble of three-level configuration atoms in an optical cavity, interacting through two-photon transitions with a cavity mode, driven by a broad-band squeezed input of finite amplitude. The atom-cavity system is coupled to reservoirs to describe the losses of the atoms and the cavity. Optical spectra in the transmitted and the reflected field are calculated and analysed in the good cavity limit, for the purely absorptive resonant case and the general case, respectively.     

Spectroscopic studies on 2,3,4,5-tetraphenylpyrylium salts with and without silver (I)-bridged structures

Two novel phenylated pyrylium compounds, silver (I)-bridged 2,3,4,5-tetraphenylpyrylium perchlorate (P1) and its silver (I)-free pyrylium ligand (P2) were prepared from 1,2,3,4-tetraphenylcyclopentadiene to examine their spectroscopic behaviors. The UV/vis absorption and fluorescent emission spectra of P1 and P2, measured in three solvents (acetonitrile, dichloromethane and toluene), reveal that the photophysical behaviors are closely related to silver (I) fragment, and strongly dependent on solvent polarity. In polar acetonitrile, P1 displays longer absorption wavelength and much lower fluorescent emission intensity than P2, although they exhibit much similarity in shape. In contrast, in nonpolar toluene, while P2 shows an apparent absorption band at 338 nm, P1 displays a tail-like line without absorption band observed. All the spectra obtained indicate a better coplanarity and a stronger intra-molecular charge transfer in P1 due to the effect of silver (I) fragment. Additionally, the 1H NMR spectra of P1 and P2, which were recorded under the same conditions, indicate that the silver (I) fragment reinforces pyrylium ring's capacity to localize the formal positive charge within the heterocyclic ring.

稀土元素在LD30铝合金真空钎焊中的作用

研究了添加La和Ce的Al-Si基钎料真空钎焊LD30铝合金接头的力学性能，微观组织形貌和EDS，并与未添加稀土元素的Al-Si基钎料真空钎焊接头进行对比。结果表明，添加稀土元素的LD30铝合金真空钎焊接头抗拉强度为288MPa，达母材抗拉强度的97．6％，明显高于未添加稀土的LD30合金真空钎焊接头。其机制在于La,Ce能够明显提高Al-Si基钎料与LD30铝合金的润湿性能，改善LD30铝合金真空钎焊接头焊缝及其基体中杂质元素的分布，促进钎料和母材中各元素的均匀扩散，从而提高真空钎焊接头的力学性能。
