Platinum-group element concentrations in BCR-723: a quantitative review of published analyses

BCR-723 is the only environmental certified reference material for platinum-group elements (PGEs) Pt, Pd and Rh. It has been an integral component of quality control/quality assurance procedures in environmental laboratories measuring PGEs, since 2001. Here, we present an extensive quantitative review of the published PGEs measured in BCR-723, since its introduction. A statistical examination of concentrations, measurement precision and accuracy for 25 studies is presented. Measurement typically starts with an aqua regia digestion, followed by some form of pre-concentration or separation procedure, and quantitation by ICP-MS. Use of a sample mass below the recommended value of 100 mg has been shown to produce biased results for acid-based digestions or with laser ablation. Platinum is the most precisely and accurately measured PGE in BCR-723, followed by Rh, and finally by Pd. Literature precision data for all autocatalyst PGEs did not differ significantly (α = 0.05) from those obtained by the original laboratories used to certify BCR-723. Measurement accuracies for the literature tabulated PGE data did not differ significantly from zero, indicating an overall lack of directional bias. These results should be encouraging to the analytical community, but further advancements, especially for Pd quantification are required.     

Precision Graphene Nanoribbon Heterojunctions by Chain-Growth Polymerization

Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are considered promising candidates for next-generation nanoelectronics. In particular, GNR heterojunctions have received considerable attention due to their exotic topological electronic phases at the heterointerface. However, strategies for their precision synthesis remain at a nascent stage. Here, we report a novel chain-growth polymerization strategy that allows for constructing GNR heterojunction with N=9 armchair and chevron GNRs segments ( 9-AGNR/cGNR ). The synthesis involves a controlled Suzuki–Miyaura catalyst-transfer polymerization (SCTP) between 2-(6′-bromo-4,4′′-ditetradecyl-[1,1′:2′,1′′-terphenyl]-3′-yl) boronic ester ( M1 ) and 2-(7-bromo-9,12-diphenyl-10,11-bis(4-tetradecylphenyl)-triphenylene-2-yl) boronic ester ( M2 ), followed by the Scholl reaction of the obtained block copolymer ( poly-M1/M2 ) with controlled M_n (18 kDa) and narrow Đ (1.45). NMR and SEC analysis of poly-M1/M2 confirm the successful block copolymerization. The solution-mediated cyclodehydrogenation of poly-M1/M2 toward 9-AGNR/cGNR is unambiguously validated by FT-IR, Raman, and UV/Vis spectroscopies. Moreover, we also demonstrate the on-surface formation of pristine 9-AGNR/cGNR from the unsubstituted copolymer precursor, which is unambiguously characterized by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM).

基于重复博弈的地方政府精准扶贫合作机制研究

精准扶贫是习近平总书记为彻底解决贫困问题而提出一项战略要求。精准扶贫是一项复杂性较高、涉及范畴较广的系统工作,其工作的展开需要由地方政府共同协作完成。地方政府合作周期长短对精准扶贫有着巨大的影响,基于博弈论的基本思想方法,针对地方政府精准扶贫合作机制进行研究。首先,针对精准扶贫过程中完全信息静态博弈的情况,构建地方政府合作与非合作的无限次重复博弈模型,并分析双方政府均采取冷酷战略时,彼此合作的临界贴现因子;然后,针对精准扶贫过程中地方政府合作周期长短对精准扶贫成效的问题,探讨了有限重复博弈模型的临界贴现因子与地方政府合作周期的关系。分析表明：在精准扶贫过程中,双方政府合作周期越长,临界贴现因子越小,精准扶贫合作的稳定性越强。最后,针对精准扶贫过程中地方政府合作周期和合作机制等提出对策和建议。

亚千赫兹精度的腔增强分子饱和吸收光谱

饱和吸收光谱法常被用于原子和分子跃迁的亚多普勒测量。光学谐振腔除了可增强有效吸收光程,还能够增加腔内的激光功率来饱和非常弱的分子振转跃迁.本文利用精细度达120000的谐振腔,通过腔增强光谱、腔衰荡光谱、噪声免疫腔增强光外差分子光谱这三种不同的腔增强方法,测量1.4μm处的C_2H_2分子兰姆凹陷.采用不同的腔增强方法确定吸收谱线中心,均给出了亚千赫兹的统计不确定度.并分析比较了不同方法的灵敏度和精度,噪声免疫腔增强光外差分子光谱是最灵敏的方法,但如果期望利用它实现亚千赫兹精度的计量应用,还需要对该方法中的系统误差进行更多的研究.
