A comparative study on the interaction between tin(II) porphyrin and selected group 8B metals for potential application as reduction catalysts

We study the interaction between tin(II) porphyrin (SnPor) with platinum and non-precious Group 8B metals (iron, cobalt and nickel) by density functional theory and discuss the electronic properties of the resulting products. We also model the interaction of the resulting compounds with water where applicable. Our studies indicate that, SnPor-Ni possesses electronic properties similar to SnPor-Pt, suggesting that it may possess similar photocatalytic properties for reduction reactions, such as converting water to hydrogen gas.     

模拟退火法在吸收薄膜的椭偏反演算法中的应用

将一种广泛用于求解复杂系统优化问题的技术－－模拟退火法－－用来求解椭偏反演方程。首先假设一个薄膜模型，计算出其相应的椭偏参数（Ψ，Δ）的值，在这个计算值的基础上加入不同标准偏差的高斯噪声；然后将加入噪声后的值（Ψm,Δm)作为模拟的测量数据，采用模拟退火算法进行求解，验证得知这种方法求得的薄膜参数很接近于假设的薄膜模型参数的真值，与其他文献的报道结果一致，而且在扩大搜寻范围时，仍然可以得到准确解，从而证明了该方法的可行性以及有效性。     

Effects of Nb2O5 on thermal stability and optical properties of Er3+-doped tellurite glasses

Er³⁺-doped tellurite glasses with molar compositions of xNb₂O₅-(14.7-x)Na₂O--10ZnO--5K₂O--10GeO₂-- 60TeO₂--0.3Er₂O₃ (x=0, 3, 5, 7 and 9) have been investigated for developing 1.5~μm fibre and planar amplifiers. The effects of Nb₂O₅ on the thermal stability and optical properties of Er³⁺-doped tellurite glasses have been discussed. It is noted that the incorporation of Nb₂O₅ (x=5) increases the thermal stability of tellurite glasses significantly. Er³⁺-doped niobium tellurite glasses exhibit a large stimulated emission cross-section (7.2\times 10^-21- 10.7×10^-21~cm² and the gain bandwidth, FWHM×\sigma_e^{\rm peak} (274\times 10^-28 - 480×10^-28~cm³), which are significantly higher than that of silicate and phosphate glasses. In addition, the intensity of upconversion luminescence of the Er³⁺-doped niobium tellurite glasses decreases rapidly with increasing Nb₂O₅ content. As a result, Er³⁺-doped niobium tellurite glasses might be a potential candidate for developing laser or optical amplifier devices.     

基于LiCo0.8M0.2O2 (M=Ni,Zr)薄膜的全固态薄膜锂电池

用射频磁控溅射结合传统退火的方法制备LiCo0.8M0.2O2 (M=Ni,Zr)阴极薄膜．X射线衍射、拉曼光谱、扫描电子显微镜等手段表征了不同掺杂的LiCo0.8M0.2O2薄膜．结果显示,700℃退火的LiCo0.8M0．2O2薄膜具有类似α-NaFeO2的层状结构．通过对不同掺杂锂钴氧阴极的全固态薄膜锂电池Li／LiPON／LiCo0.8M0.2O2的电化学性能研究表明,电化学活性元素Ni的掺杂使全固态电池具有更大的放电容量(56μAh／cm2μm),而非电化学活性元素Zr的掺杂使全固态电池具有更好的循环稳定性．     

Optical spectroscopy of Yb/Er codoped NaY(WO4)2 crystal

Erbium and ytterbium codoped double tungstates NaY(WO₄)₂ crystals were prepared by using Czochralski (CZ) pulling method. The absorption spectra in the region 290-2000 nm have been recorded at room temperature. The Judd-Ofelt theory was applied to the measured values of absorption line strengths to evaluate the spontaneous emission probabilities and stimulated emission cross sections of Er³⁺ ions in NaY(WO₄)₂ crystals. Intensive green and red lights were measured when the sample were pumped by a 974 nm laser diode (LD), especially, the intensities of green upconversion luminescence are very strong. The mechanism of energy transfer from Yb³⁺ to Er³⁺ ions was analyzed. Energy transfer and nonradiative relaxation played an important role in the upconversion process. Photoexcited luminescence experiments are also fulfilled to help analyzing the transit processes of the energy levels.     

两种蓝色有机电致发光材料

重点研究以两种蓝色OEL材料蒽类衍生物JBEM和联苯乙烯衍生物DPVBi分别作基质，以perylene作掺杂剂的器件的电致发光性能，特别研究了它稳定性，在这度和效率方面，两种器件并没有很大差别，然而在稳定性方面却有很大差别，蒽类衍生物JBEM的器件在100cd/m^2初始亮度下，半亮度寿命可达1035h，而DPVBi的器件在同样条件下，半亮度寿命为255h。通过分析两种器件的能级图，认为稳定性的差别可能源于两种蓝光材料本身的热稳定性不同，JBEM优于DPVBi，是一种很有前途的蓝色发光材料。

Multi-cracks problem for piezoelectric materials strip subjected to dynamic loading

This paper analyses and models the dynamic interaction among permeable multi-cracks in a piezoelectric strip under anti-plane shear waves by the Schmidt method. The Fourier transform is applied and then two pairs of triple integral equations can be solved using the Schmidt method. The results show that the stress and the electric displacement intensity factors of cracks depend on not only the crack length and the piezoelectric coefficient, but also the thickness of the piezoelectric strip, the distance between multi-cracks and the frequency of incident wave.     

Elasticity in nanocrystalline Nd2Fe14B+αFe magnetic composites

The dynamic Young modulus (E) of magnetic Nd₂Fe₁₄B+αFe nanocomposites is investigated with mechanical spectroscopy techniques (vibrating reed configuration, f≈1.5 kHz <10⁻⁶). Reduced values of E are obtained (88–152 GPa) as compared with that predicted by the rule of mixtures for the composite (164 GPa). Three contributions to this reduction are briefly discussed: a large volume fraction of the specimen with grain boundary like structure; internal pores, resulting from the high cooling rate during processing (10⁶ K/min) and magneto-mechanical effects. Even when porosity is identified as the principal cause of modulus reduction, magnetic effects are also detected.
