Aqueous germanate solution,alternative sol–gel precursor for preparation of Mn<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>Ge<Subscript>1−<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript> diluted magnetic semiconductors

The solids content and gelation time of aqueous germanate solution were examined in this work. Samples of 5, 10 and 20 mol% Mn doped Ge were prepared by using the aqueous germanate solution as a liquid Ge precursor. No second phase such as Mn₅Ge₃ was detected in the 5 and 10 mol% Mn doped samples, implying that Mn ions were uniformly diluted into the Ge host matrix. The 5 and 10 mol% Mn-doped Ge samples exhibit room-temperature ferromagnetic behaviors that are likely originated from the RKKY (Ruderman–Kittel–Kasuya–Yosida)-like interaction between the localized Mn ions in the Ge matrix. Therefore, the aqueous germanate solution can be an alternative sol–gel precursor for preparation of the Mn _x Ge_1−x diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMSs).

Crystal growth and characterization of the CMR compound La1.2(Sr,Ca)1.8Mn2O7

High-quality centimeter-sized single crystals of La_1.2Sr_1.8−yCa_yMn₂O₇ (0.0y0.2) were successfully grown using a floating zone method associated with an image furnace. We present the growth conditions together with a characterization of the single crystals by means of optical and electron microscopy, EDX and ICPAES analysis, DTA-TGA measurements and redox titration, X-ray powder diffraction, Laue X-ray back-reflection and neutron diffraction. We also stress the main aspects of the complex thermodynamical and kinetic behaviors of these compounds.     

CO在M55（M=Cu,Ag,Au）团簇上吸附的密度泛函研究

在全电子相对论BVP86/DNP水平下对CO在Au55,Ag55和Cu55团簇上的吸附进行了比较研究,并考察了电荷对吸附的影响.计算结果表明,CO在Au55团簇上吸附能最大,其次为Cu55团簇,最弱的为Ag55团簇.团簇电荷对C—O键活化和CO与团簇表面原子成键影响较小.金团簇的电荷对吸附能影响较大,而银和铜团簇的电荷对吸附能影响较小.CO吸附到团簇上导致团簇上电子向CO转移.C—O键活化强度与吸附位置密切相关,其中孔位吸附导致C—O键活化程度最大,最弱的为顶位吸附.CO在金团簇上吸附具有较好选择性,而在银和铜团簇上吸附无选择性.     

Synthesis of branched carbasugars via photooxygenation and manganese(III) acetate free radical cyclization

Transformation of cyclohexa-1,3- and 1,4-dienes to carbasugars is described. Photooxygenation of dienes gave bicyclic endoperoxides, which were reduced with thiourea to the corresponding 1,4-diols with cis-configuration. Lactonization of the remaining double bond by oxidative addition of acetic acid to the double bond in the presence of Mn(OAc)₃ followed by lactone ring-opening reaction gave the target branched carbasugars.     

Entangled atomic state generation via adiabatic evolution of dark eigenstates in cavity QED

We propose a scheme for generating a two-atom entangled state and an N-atom W state using adiabatic evolution of dark eigenstates in cavity QED. The time required to complete the process does not need precise control. Since the cavity modes are never excited during the operations by engineering adiabatic evolution and controlling the atom–cavity couplings, the decoherence of the cavity decay can be suppressed.     

Mechanical forces and torques associated with electromagnetic waves

Mechanical forces and torques associated with electromagnetic waves impinging on several objects are computed. The incoming radiation can be linearly or circularly polarized, thus carrying linear and angular momenta. The objects are matched dipoles in several configurations and a metal sphere. Numerous interesting results are obtained.     

Metastable state and macroscopic quantum tunneling of binary mixtures

We provide a mixing model to explore the metastable state and the macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) of binary mixtures. For , we first observe the two condensates form the symmetry-breaking state (SBS) and then suddenly transfer to the symmetry-preserving state (SPS) through the MQT. The SBS is shown to be the metastable state in our system. We find the MQT does not spontaneously arise. The inducement mechanism is the damping but not the excitations. The damping mechanism can also control the lifetime and the tunneling decay rate of the SBS. Finally, we further present the origin of these phenomena by examining the energy of the system.     

Syzygies and the Rees algebra

Let a,b,c be linearly independent homogeneous polynomials in the standard Z-graded ring R?k[s,t] with the same degree d and no common divisors. This defines a morphism P¹→P². The Rees algebra of the ideal I=〈a,b,c〉 is the graded R-algebra which can be described as the image of an R-algebra homomorphism h: . This paper discusses one result concerning the structure of the kernel of the map h and its relation to the problem of finding the implicit equation of the image of the map given by a, b, c. In particular, we prove a conjecture of Hong, Simis and Vasconcelos. We also relate our results to the theory of adjoint curves and prove a special case of a conjecture of Cox.
