钛基片的化学机械抛光技术研究

采用化学机械抛光（CMP）方法对钛基片进行纳米级平坦化处理,通过系列抛光试验优化抛光液组成和抛光工艺条件后,得到AFM-Ra为0.159 nm的纳米级抛光表面和156.5 nm/min的抛光速率。抛光液的电化学分析结果表明：二氧化硅颗粒和乳酸在钛表面有不同程度的吸附缓蚀作用,氨水和F-的络合、扩散作用能破坏缓蚀膜层,两者的中间平衡状态才能得到最佳抛光效果。抛光后钛表层XPS测试结果显示钛表层经过化学氧化形成疏松氧化层后,再通过磨粒和抛光垫的机械作用去除。     

K9和石英玻璃基片上Au膜真空紫外反射特性研究

采用离子束溅射法,分别在经过不同前期清洗方法处理过的K9及石英玻璃光学基片上,选择不同的镀膜参量,镀制了多种厚度的Au膜。对镀制的Au膜在真空紫外波段较宽波长范围内的反射率进行了连续测量。测试结果表明:辅助离子源的使用方式、Au膜厚度对反射镜的反射率有重大影响。基片材料、镀前基片表面清洗工艺等对反射率也有一定影响。采用镀前离子轰击,可显著提高Au膜反射率及膜与基底的粘合力;获得最高反射率时的最佳膜厚与基片材料、镀膜工艺密切相关。对经过离子清洗的石英基片,膜厚在30 nm左右反射率最高;比较而言,石英基片可获得更高的反射率;辅助离子源的使用还显著影响获得最高反射率时对应的最佳膜厚值,且对K9基片的影响更显著。

表面增强拉曼散射(surface-enhanced Raman scattering,简称为SERS)能够提供有机分子的指纹特征信息,且具有灵敏度高和响应时间快等优点,是一项具有发展前景的分析技术。纳米结构SERS基底是获得SERS信号的关键。本文利用简便的电沉积方法在硅片上制备大面积的金微/纳颗粒阵列。金纳米颗粒之间存在大量狭小的纳米间隙,在光激发下产生大量的SERS"热点",从而具有很高的SERS灵敏度。而且,这种金微/纳结构具有高结构稳定性和化学稳定性。该结构对浓度低至10-12 M的罗丹明6G(R6G)具有很高的SERS灵敏性,且具有很好的SERS信号均匀性。利用这种微/纳结构阵列SERS基底,实现对水中低浓度农药甲基对硫磷的成功检测。这表明我们制备的金微/纳颗粒阵列在检测环境中的毒性有机物污染物方面具有潜在的应用前景。     

FEATURES OF A FLEXIBLE BACKBONE IN THE COORDINATION COMPOUNDS OF A DIOXIME LIGAND: THE CHARACTERIZATION OF SUPRAMOLECULAR AND DINUCLEAR METAL COMPLEXES

Abstract

The grinding of a 2: 1 molar ratio mixture of isonitrosoacetylacetone and 1,3-diaminopropan-2-ol led to formation of the tribasic ligand (H₃L), (1) with two oxime groups and a flexible alcoholic backbone. The 1:2 molar ratio reaction of (1) with CuX₂ produced the planar dinuclear complexes LCu₂(X) nH₂O; × = acetate (2), phenylacetate (3), formate (4), monochloroacetate (5), dichloroacetate (6), trichloroacetate (7), benzoate (8), and p-hydroxybenzoate (9); n = 1 for (2) and (8); n = 2 for (3)-(7); and n = 4 for (9). The copper(II) ions are bridged by the carbox-ylate and the alcoholic oxygen. The strong antiferromagnetic interactions in (2)-(9) are impeded in (5)-(7) by the chloroacetate bridge withdrawing electron density from the carboxylate. The latter bridge is replaced by picrate in the 1:1 molar ratio reaction of (2) with picric acid (10). The 1:1 molar ratio reaction of (1) with copper(II) acetate produced the tetranuclear [HLCu]₂[LCu₂(OAc)] 5H₂O (11), whereas the 2:1 molar ratio reaction, similar to the reaction which led to (8), produced HLCu (12). The latter complex reacted (1:1 molar ratio) with either copper(ll) acetate or nickel(II) acetate to produce complexes (2) and the heterodinuclear LNi-Cu(OAc) 2H₂O (13), respectively. Similar reactions with (11) gave the same complexes (2) and (13). The acid adducts of (9) with p-hydroxybenzoic acid (14) and LCu₂(X)-HX (15); × = p-aminobenzoic acid were isolated. The cobalt(II) analogue of the mononuclear (12), HLCo 2H₂O (16) was obtained from the 1:1 molar reaction of (1) with cobalt(II) acetate. The supramolecular structure of (11), (12) and (16) took place via intermolecular hydrogen bonding of the alcoholic proton with the oximato oxygen of the adjacent molecule which mediated electron density and allowed for a magnetic exchange interaction. The suggested structures of the ligand and metal complexes are in accordance with analytical, spectral and magnetic moment data.     

Design of Transmission Line for Submillimeter Wave Gyrotron Using Dielectric-Lined Waveguide

The excitation and transmission losses of a dielectric-lined waveguide have been calculated with real, experimentally measured output beams of a submillimeter wave gyrotron. It is shown that for not-so-long transmission lines the coupling losses far exceed the transmission losses in the waveguide.     

Structural study of self-assembled monolayers of ferrocenylalkanethiols on gold by angleresolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy

An angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic study has been performed on structures of self-assembling systems, viz ferrocenylthiols on a gold (111) crystal. The angular dependence of the intensities of photoemission reveals that ferrocenyl groups are on the outermost layer, separated from the gold substrate by hydrocarbon chains of the thiol groups.     

Periodic maintenance and repair rate control in stochastic manufacturing systems

In this paper, we consider a periodic preventive maintenance, repair, and production model of a flexible manufacturing system with failure-prone machines, where the control variables are the repair rate and production rate. We use periodic preventive maintenance to reduce the machine failure rates and improve the productivity of the system. One of the distinct features of the model is that the repair rate is adjustable. Our objective is to choose a control process that minimizes the total cost of inventory/shortage, production, repair, and maintenance. Under suitable conditions, we show that the value function is locally Lipschitz and satisfies an Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation. A sufficient condition for optimal control is obtained. Since analytic solutions are rarely available, we design an algorithm to approximate the optimal control problem. To demonstrate the performance of the numerical method, an example is presented.Research of this author was supported by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, Grant OGP0036444.Research of this author was supported in part by the University of Georgia.Research of this author was supported in part by the National Science Foundation, Grant DMS-92-24372.     

Adaptive Robust Tracking for Flexible Spacecraft in Presence of Disturbances

The paper deals with trajectory tracking for a flexible spacecraft, subject to a gravity-gradient disturbance, under parameter uncertainties. The controls are gas jets and reaction wheels, and the measured variables describe the attitude and angular velocity of the rigid part. The flexible dynamics is treated as an additional disturbance acting on a rigid structure. First, an adaptive control is designed with only the gravity-gradient disturbance acting on the spacecraft; second, it is proved to be effective also in the presence of disturbance due to the flexibility, provided that appropriate robustness conditions on the controller gains are satisfied. These conditions use partial knowledge of the parameters describing the elastic dynamics. Simulations show the good performance of such control scheme and demonstrate its applicability even in the presence of input saturation.
