Application of algebraic method to the high overtones of C6H6 and C6D6

Both the spectra and infrared transition strengths of C₆H₆ and C₆D₆ for the C? H stretching overtones up to as high as v = 10 are described in high precision with few parameters (six for the spectra and four for the transition strengths) by the Iachello–Oss algebraic model. The Hamiltonian model is solved in the symmetry adapted bases, which are constructed by the symmetrized boson representation (SBR) technique. The results show that the combination of the algebraic method and SBR technique is a powerful method for describing vibrations of large molecules and high overtones. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

非化学专业无机及分析化学“讲练考”教学模式改革

This article discussed "teaching-practice-test" teaching mode with teaching practical experience and content matching.Results showed that this mode highlighted the proportion of practice and problem-solving in the process of learning; improved students' ability to solve problems using professional and disciplinary knowledge; changed learning styles from cramming way to autonomous learning step by step and trained students' creativity.     

Design and characterization of guided mode resonance filters with the improved structure for facile fabrication

In this study, a guided mode resonance filter with the improved structure for facile fabrication is designed; the properties of the designed filters are simulated by rigorous coupled wave analysis. It is found that the resonance wavelength and spectral linewidth are slightly increased with the increasing of the grating thickness, and seldom changed with the thickness of the grating filling factor, as the parameter error of the grating thickness and the grating filling factor are deviated from the designed value by ±10%, respectively, which are very favorable for simplifying preparation process of the GMR filter.     

An Investigation into the Migration of Segments in Crosslinked Fluorinated Polyimide Adhesive

Crosslinked fluorinated polyimides (CFPI) were successfully synthesized to study and explore the effect of cross-linkage on the migration of fluorinated segments and on the adhesion strength. Characterization by dynamic thermomechanical analysis (DMA) and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) confirmed good thermal properties of CFPI. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results showed that the ratio of fluorinated component (6FDA-ODA) concentration of the surface to the bulk decreased with the crosslink density. The water contact angle of CFPI was lower than that of non-crosslinked fluorinated polyimide, indicating that the migration of fluorinated groups to the surface was reduced by the presence of cross-linkage. Therefore, CFPI, with no fluorine segregation on the surface, exhibited excellent wetting of adherent surfaces and adhesion strength, which was proved by lap shear strength (LSS) measurements and scanning electron microscopy.     

Syntheses and structures of M–Na (M=Zn,Mn) coordination polymers in which ligands and Na ions exhibit complex coordination modes

The novel heteronuclear complexes [Na₂Zn(dipic)₂(H₂O)] _n (1) and [Na₂Mn(dipic)₂(H₂O)₂] _n (2) (H₂dipic?=?pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) were synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, analysis, IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Complex 1 consists of infinite 2D double layers, which are further attached into a 3D network through π–π stacking. All sodium ions are 3-coordinate. Complex 2 has an intricate 3D structure, in which two sodium ions are differently involved in forming polymeric coordination units, and are 3- and 7-coordinate, respectively. Dipic anions act as multidentate ligands showing novel and unprecedented bridging coordination modes. One ligand coordinates to three metal ions and with five bonds; the other coordinates five metal ions with nine bonds.     

Reflective mode of deformed-helix ferroelectric liquid crystal cells for sensing applications

We present a detailed theoretical and experimental study of the reflectance response of a deformed-helix ferroelectric (DHF) liquid crystal (LC) cell to an applied voltage under cross-polarisers. Using a model based on the effective dielectric tensor approximation, we derive simple analytical formulas to design a LC cell with maximum modulation depth and optimal linearity of the electro-optical response intensity versus the electric field. Our experimental results show that the cell works at frequencies up to 10 kHz and exhibits excellent linearity, with a total harmonic distortion as low as ?70 dB. These findings suggest that DHF-LCs can be exploited to develop simple and accurate optical sensors.     

A variational approach to second-order approximability of sliding mode control systems

We consider robustness properties of second-order methods for the sliding mode control of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. A new approach is presented based on the theory of well-posed optimization problems. It is shown that the convergence of the real states of the control system to the ideal one is intimately related to Tykhonov well-posedness of suitably defined dynamic optimization problems.     

Material growth and device fabrication of terahertz quantum-cascade laser based on bound-to-continuum structure

The terahertz quantum-cascade laser （THz QCL） based on bound-to-continuum structure is demonstrated. The X-ray diffraction measurement of the material shows a high crystalline quality of the active region. A THz QCL device was fabricated with semi-insulating surface-plasmon waveguide. The test device is lasing at about 3 THz and operating up to 60 K. It shows a single frequency property under different drive currents and temperatures. At 9 K, the maximum output power is greater than 2 mW with a threshold current density of 159 A/cm2.
