Crystal structures of two isostructural compounds: a second polymorph of dipotassium hydrogen citrate,K2HC6H5O7, and potassium rubidium hydrogen citrate,KRbHC6H5O7

The crystal structures of a new polymorph of dipotassium hydrogen citrate, 2K⁺·HC₆H₅O₇^2?, and potassium rubidium hydrogen citrate, K⁺·Rb⁺·HC₆H₅O₇^2?, have been solved and refined using laboratory powder X‐ray diffraction and optimized using density functional techniques. In the new polymorph of the dipotassium salt, KO₇ and KO₈ coordination polyhedra share corners and edges to form a three‐dimensional framework with channels parallel to the a axis and [111]. The hydrophobic methylene groups face each other in the channels. The un‐ionized carboxylic acid group forms a strong charge‐assisted hydrogen bond to the central ionized carboxylate group. The hydroxy group forms an intermolecular hydrogen bond to a different central carboxylate group. In the potassium rubidium salt, the K⁺ and Rb⁺ cations are disordered over two sites, in approximately 0.72:0.28 and 0.28:0.72 ratios. KO₈ and RbO₉ coordination polyhedra share corners and edges to form a three‐dimensional framework with channels parallel to the a axis. The un‐ionized carboxylic acid group forms a strong charge‐assisted hydrogen bond to an ionized carboxylate group. The hydroxy group forms an intermolecular hydrogen bond to the central carboxylate group. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations on the ordered cation structures suggest that interchange of K⁺ and Rb⁺ at the two cation sites changes the energy insignificantly.

对背面有热流输入的矩形毛细微槽群横截面上的气液分界面形状进行了理论分析,在一定条件下对Wayner蒸发模型进行简化,根据等壁温条件推出蒸发薄液膜区域热流密度近似为定值,通过流体动力学理论推导出了微槽横截面薄液膜区域液膜厚度变化的关系式,并与Wayner蒸发模型的计算结果进行了比较。进一步提出了全新的交界线区域长度的判定方法,根据蒸发薄液膜区域总换热量计算得到蒸发薄液膜区域的长度,交界处接触角,以及固有弯月面区域的曲率半径,从而最终得出了微槽横截面整个气液分界面的形状曲线,理论分析表明:槽宽、热流密度、过热度等因素对蒸发薄液膜区域长度、接触角以及固有弯月面曲率半径等参数有较大的影响。     

A novel quasi-phase-matching frequency doubling technique

A new quasi-phase-matching technique for efficient second-harmonic generation is reported. It is based on the spatial periodic modulation of the light intensity along the propagation direction, rather than the conventional spatial periodic modulation of the nonlinear optical coefficients. It can be realized by using a novel dual-channel waveguide frequency doubler structure for the desired light intensity distribution. This dual-channel waveguide device has major advantages including very small beam size, high light intensity within long nonlinear-waveguide interaction length, highly efficient second-harmonic generation, ease in fabrication of the nonlinear channel waveguides without any spatially periodic poling, and low waveguide propagation losses. The new quasi-phase-matching technique can also be applied to third-harmonic generation and other nonlinear optics processes.     

On timing Jitter in wavelength-division multiplexed soliton systems

Collision-induced timing shifts in a wavelength-division multiplexed soliton system are computed when damping, amplification, filtering and positive dispersion management following the loss profile are included. A statistical analysis is presented which takes into account the resulting effect of the large number of collisions occurring in the fiber. Analytic expressions are derived for the root mean square timing jitter and the maximum length of error-free transmission with an arbitrary number of channels. An extensive analysis of system performance corresponding to situations with and without filters and/or dispersion management is carried out.     

Astrocyte and ions metabolism during epileptogenesis:A review for modeling studies

As a large group of cells in a central nervous system, astrocytes have a great influence on ion and energy metabolism in a nervous system. Disorders of neuronal ion and energy metabolism caused by impaired astrocytes play a key role in the pathogenesis of epilepsy. This paper reviews the existing computational models of epileptogenesis resulting from impaired astrocytes and presents several open perspectives with regard to ion and energy metabolism-induced epileptogenesis in a neuron-astrocyte-capillary coupled model.     

双渠道下制造商现金流套期保值决策研究

由于汇率、利率、商品价格的变化以及双渠道供应链关系的复杂性,企业的现金流存在较大的波动性。本文研究双渠道销售模式下,制造商对现金流进行套期保值的决策问题。重点关注垄断企业在拥有一个分销商和线上销售的双渠道销售模式下,并利用内部融资将现金流用于提高生产效率时,如何根据现金流的波动程度、市场需求、替代产品敏感系数以及批发价格进行套期保值决策。研究了双渠道销售模式下制造商的均衡问题,比较了两种决策下的均衡解,并通过数值分析给出了直观的结论：市场最大需求与替代产品敏感系数增加时,企业更倾向于选择套期保值;现金流波动程度与批发价格增加时,企业更倾向于不选择套期保值。     

Efficiency enhancement of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 thin‐film solar cells by a post‐deposition treatment with potassium fluoride

Alkali‐free Cu(In,Ga)Se₂(CIGS) absorbers grown on Mo‐coated alumina (Al₂O₃) substrates were doped with potassium (K) after CIGS growth by a potassium fluoride (KF) post‐deposition treatment (PDT). The addition of K to the absorber leads to a strong increase in cell efficiency from 10.0% for the K‐free cell to 14.2% for the K‐doped cell, mainly driven by an increase in the open‐circuit voltage V_oc and the fill factor FF, and to an increase in the net charge carrier density. Hence K doping by KF‐PDT is comparable to doping with Na.

大尺寸磷酸二氢钾晶体的折射率均一性研究

采用德国Trioptics公司生产的新一代全自动高精度折射率测量仪,测量了磷酸二氢钾(KDP)晶体不同部位的样品位于近紫外到近红外波段(0.253—1.530μm)内12个不同波长处的折射率,测量精度达到10-6量级.结果表明,大尺寸KDP晶体不同部位样品的折射率存在不均一性,靠近晶体恢复区的样品折射率小于晶体锥头区的样品折射率,偏差在10-5—10-4量级.研究发现,这种折射率不均一性与晶体不同部位的结晶质量存在差异有关.另外,将测量数据与其他文献中的数据进行对比.结果显示,所测试的样品数、波段宽度、测量点数量以及数据的精度均超过其他文献,结合测试条件分析了不同文献数据存在差异的原因.最后,使用最小二乘法拟合得到了KDP晶体较为可靠的Sellmeier方程.
