Uncooled InAs0.09Sb0.91 photoconductors with cutoff wave- length extended to 11.5 μm

Uncooled InAsSb photoconductors were fabricated. The photoconductors were based on InAs0.05Sb0.95 and InAs0.09Sb0.91 thick epilayers grown on InAs substrates by melt epitaxy (ME). Ge immersion lenses were set on the photoconductors. The cutoff wavelength of InAs0.09Sb0.91 detectors is obviously extended to 11.5 mm, and that of InAs0.05Sb0.95 detectors is 8.3 mm. At room temperature, the peak detectivity of Dλp at wavelength of 6.8 mm and modulation frequency of 1 200 Hz is 1.08×109 cm.Hz1/2.W-1 for InAs0.09Sb0.91 photoconductors, the detectivity D at wavelength of 9 mm is 7.56×108 cm.Hz1/2.W-1, and that at 11 mm is 3.92×108 cm.Hz1/2.W-1. The detectivity of InAs0.09Sb0.91 detectors at the wavelengths longer than 9 mm is about one order of magnitude higher than that of InAs0.05Sb0.95 detectors, which rises from the increase of arsenic (As) composition in InAs0.09Sb0.91 materials.

近红外发光Ag2S-CdS 核壳结构水溶性量子点的合成及光学性质

本文以谷胱甘肽(GSH)作为表面活性剂,采用两步法,先生成Ag2S核,再生长CdS,得到了高质量的Ag2S-CdS核壳结构水溶性量子点。我们用XRD,TEM,HRTEM和EDS研究了产物的结构,形貌和组分,用紫外可见吸收光谱和荧光发射光谱研究了所得量子点的光学性质,同时考察了反应时间,GSH的量,Ag和S源前驱物的含量对量子点光学性质的影响。实验结果表明量子点稳定性好,荧光寿命长,可在710~718 nm近红外区域发光。在核生长过程中,Ag和S源的含量同时影响量子点的发光位置和强度,而GSH量和壳层生长中S源的量几乎只影响近红外发光强度,发光位置保持不变。不同的量子点光学性质可能来源于量子点中组分及表面缺陷的分布。     

Tuning the solid-state emission of the analogous GFP chromophore by varying alkyl chains in the imidazolinone ring

New analogues of green fluorescent protein (GFP) chromophore mGFP-Cn (n = 1, 3, 5, 11) with alkyl chains of different lengths in the imidazolinone rings were synthesized and their crystal structures were determined. These GFP-like chromophores are all emissive in the solid state. And the solid-state emission quantum yields of increase by extending the lengths of alkyl chains, owing to the fact that the intermolecular pi-pi interactions are significantly weakened based on their crystal structures.     

Mathematical modeling and sustained release property of a 5-fluorouracil imprinted vehicle

In the present research, a type of imprinted hydrogels, in which 5-fluorouracil is complexed non-covalently to the monomers and cross-linked into the hydrogel matrix, is synthesized in order to evaluate the possibility of their applications in sustaining the release of 5-fluorouracil due to the drug’s heightened interactions with the imprinted binding sites. Because of the hydrophility, hydrogels can absorb large amounts of water. As a result, drug release mechanisms are different from hydrophobic polymers. Mathematical model has been established to predict the drug release from the hydrogel matrix as a function of time. The drug release mechanism when immersed in release medium is discussed based on mathematical analysis. Swelling studies are performed and the capability of the hydrogels to reload 5-fluorouracil in aqueous solutions is evaluated. In vitro release studies after reloading are conducted. Mathematical analysis suggest that drug release kinetics from the hydrogels fit Fickian mechanism, further evaluation of the fitness for different hydrogel types reveal that the conformation of binding sites can play a very important role in deciding the kind of drug release mechanism. Experiments reveal that all hydrogels show swelling property. The imprinted hydrogels bind much more 5-fluorouracil than non-imprinted ones, and they sustain 5-fluorouracil release better than non-imprinted hydrogels. This research indicates that the imprinted hydrogels would be a potential promising device for drug delivery.

A general method for the preparation of 2‐(N‐Substituted)‐2‐imidazolines and 2‐(N‐Substituted)‐1,4,5,6‐tetrahydropyrimidines is described. These heterocycles can be synthesized from their respective anilines with 2‐chloro‐2‐imidazoline or 2‐chloro‐1,4,5,6‐tetrahydropyrimidine, generated in situ from imidazolidin‐2‐one and tetrahydropyrimidin‐2(1H)‐one activated by dimethyl chlorophosphate, in good to excellent yields.     

Selective recognition and electrochemical detection of p-nitrophenol based on a macroporous imprinted polymer containing gold nanoparticles

We have combined the molecular imprinting and the layer-by-layer assembly techniques to obtain molecularly imprint polymers (MIPs) for the electrochemical determination of p-nitrophenol (p-NPh). Silica microspheres functionalized with thiol groups and gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) were assembled on a gold electrode surface layer by layer. The electrode was then immersed into a solution of pyrrole and p-NPh (the template), and electropolymerization led to the creation of a polymer-modified surface. After the removal of the silica spheres and the template, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were employed to characterize the surface. The results demonstrated the successful fabrication of macroporous MIPs embedded with Au-NPs on the gold electrode. The effects of monomer concentration and scan rate on the performance of the electrode were optimized. Excellent recognition capacity is found for p-NPh over chemically similar species. The DPV peak current is linearly related to concentration of p-NPh in the 0.1 μM to 1.4 mM range, with a 0.1 μM limit of detection (at S/N?=?3).

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) and nanomaterials were combined to prepare a novel macroporous structured MIPs based electrochemical sensor for the investigation of an environmental pollutant, p-nitrophenol (p-NPh). The sensor exhibited a fast binding dynamics, good specific adsorption capacities, and high selective recognition to p-NPh.

     

A Monte Carlo code to get response spectrum of ions for Neutron Depth Profiling

This paper presents a Monte Carlo code to get response spectrum of ions for the Neutron Depth Profiling (NDP) technique called Monte Carlo NDP (MC-NDP) that simulates the behavior of ions transmitted through a sample matrix and generates the energy spectrum for a specified detector. The MC-NDP model is based on the Ziegler–Biersack–Littmark Model, but incorporates the advantages of TRIM and CORTEO. The Impulse Approximation method is used to determine the flight length with the indexical interpolation method rather than the Magic algorithm for the scattering angle between ions and nucleus. This makes MC-NDP more efficient and convenient to simulate entire ion histories by a Monte Carlo approach. MC-NDP’s results agree well with both TRIM results and the experimental data.
