树枝状银微米材料的制备及其表面增强拉曼光谱研究

为使表面增量拉曼散射(SERS)衬底的制备方法简单快速且提高的基底增强效果,采用置换反应的制备方法,用锌片和硝酸银反应制备出微米银结构SERS活性基底,其具有稳定性好,易保存,制备方法简单,过程快速等特点。用扫描电子显微镜观察得银微米材料表面形貌呈均匀对称的树枝状结构。实验中控制置换反应的时间分别为40,50,60 s时,得到的树枝状银微米材料的长度分别为3,5,10 μm左右,分支分别为700 nm,2 μm,3 μm,发现随着置换反应的时间的增长,微米银树枝及分枝的长度越长,且树枝分枝上逐渐长出纳米级“树叶”结构, 使得微米级银树枝表面具有纳米结构。并且将微米银材料置于硅片上作为SERS衬底,并以罗丹明6G为探针分子,用激发波长为1 064 nm的傅里叶变换拉曼光谱仪检测,研究其在表面增强拉曼光谱中的应用,结果表明树枝状银微米材料有很好的SERS特性,其中置换反应时间为40 s时制备的微米银树枝的增强效果最佳,其增强因子可达到103左右,并且采用用表面活性剂PVP处理硅片的方法后,保持其他条件不变,微米银衬底的SERS增强效果得到进一步加强,增强因子达到104左右。此外,将树枝状银微米材料用水可封存数月,且实验结果的重复性较好。     

同步荧光光谱技术研究胶原基表面活性剂溶液中分子的聚集行为

基于胶原基表面活性剂(collagen-based surfactant,CBS)中酪氨酸(Tyr)和苯丙氨酸(Phe)的荧光特性,应用恒波长差(Δλ)为15 nm的同步荧光光谱技术研究CBS浓度、溶液pH值、NaCl浓度和温度对其在水溶液中分子的聚集行为的影响,并以温度为外扰,利用二维同步荧光相关分析研究CBS分子中Tyr残基和Phe残基随温度变化的响应顺序。结果表明,CBS分子在261和282 nm处出现了分别归属于Phe和Tyr的特征吸收峰。随着CBS浓度的升高,CBS分子中Phe残基和Tyr残基数量逐渐增多使CBS分子聚集程度增加,并导致荧光强度增强;CBS溶液pH值(pH 5.0)在等电点附近时,由于CBS分子的疏水作用和氢键形成能力加强,导致CBS分子聚集程度增强;CBS溶液中NaCl浓度的升高,则使CBS分子间排斥力减弱,从而导致CBS分子的聚集;然而温度升高,CBS由聚集状态逐渐变为单分子状态,因猝灭、变性以及氢键形成能力降低,荧光强度逐渐降低。以温度为外扰的二维同步荧光相关光谱分析可知：低温下(10～40 ℃ ),CBS聚集体随温度升高逐渐松散,位于聚集体内部的Phe残基比Tyr残基优先响应;而在45～70 ℃时,CBS由单分子状态逐步水解为无规卷曲构造,Tyr残基的间距变大,氢键形成能力大大降低,Tyr残基比Phe残基优先响应。     

Surfactant Effects on the Permeability of Photosynthetic Membrane from Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 Probed by Electrochromic Shift of Endogenous Carotenoids

Four surfactants, sodium cholate(SC), n-dodecyl-β-D-maltopyranoside(DDM), lauryldimethylamine oxide(LDAO) and Triton X-100(TX), which are generally used in photosynthetic pigment-protein complexes preparation, were studied on their interaction with photosynthetic membrane from Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 by electrochromic absorption band-shift of endogenous carotenoids and by vesicle size measurements as well. The surfactant critical micelle concentration(cmc) was found to be negatively correlated with the capability of enhancing the permeability of photosynthetic membranes to proton, and more elaborated model of surfactants interacting with membranes was obtained. The electrochromic absorption band-shift measurement might develop into a useful tool to evaluate the effects of surfactants on various membranes.     

Tuning poly(p-phenylene) nano-size for enhancing electrical conductivity based on surfactant templates and doping

Nanoparticles play a vital role in the material property improvement. For conductive polymers, nanoparticles have been known to affect various electrical properties. This work reports the size-controlled synthesis of poly(p-phenylene) (PPP) nanoparticles using benzene, AlCl₃, and CuCl₂ as a monomer, catalyst, and oxidant respectively, incorporated with a surfactant template and subsequently doped with various doping agents to increase the electrical conductivity. The effects of surfactant types namely Span65, Tween80, and TritonX100 and surfactant concentrations were investigated. The PPP structure was confirmed by NMR, FT-IR, and XPS techniques. SEM images showed different undoped-PPP (uPPP) morphologies: irregular shape, coral reef shape, spherical shape, and worm-like shape with the particle sizes between ∼30 and ∼120 nm not previously reported. The electrical conductivity of the uPPP with a surfactant was higher than that without a surfactant due to the smaller particle size. From the doping, the electrical conductivity of the doped-PPP (dPPP) increased with the doping agent to monomer mole ratio up to 50:1. The dPPP doped with HClO₄ (dPPP/HClO₄) at the doping agent to monomer mole ratio of 50:1 exhibited the highest electrical conductivity of 74.34 S cm⁻¹ along with the long term stability in air.     

Preparation of Chiral 1,4-Phenylene-silicas via Chiral Low-molecular-weight Amphiphiles

Chiral organic-inorganic hybrid silicas can be prepared via the self-assemblies of chiral surfactants and gelators as templates. However, the relationship between the chirality of the hybrid silica and the structure of the surfactant/gelator has not been systemically studied. Herein, a series of chiral low-molecular-weight amphiphiles(LMWAs) derived from L-valine was synthesized. Their alkyl chains were n-butadecyl, n-hexadecyl and n-octadecyl, respectively. They can form viscous liquids in pure water, and physical gels in tetrahydrofuran, cyclohexanone, acetonitrile, acetone, chlorobenzene and nitrobenzene. Chiral 1,4-phenylene-silicas were prepared viathe self-assemblies of these LMWAs as templates. With increasing the alkyl chain length, the 1,4-phenylene-silicas changed from short mesoporous nanorods to long nanotubes. The circular dichroism spectra of the 1,4-phenylene-silicas indicated that the long nanotubes exhibit the strongest chirality.     

Experimental study on the effects of shear induced structure in a drag-reducing surfactant solution flow

In this paper, The drag reduction characteristics of surfactant solutions have been experimentally studied, as well as, the shear viscosities of turbulent drag-reducing surfactant solution have been measured as a function of concentration, shear rate and temperature by using AG-G2 (TA Instruments, New Castle, USA) rheometer. In comparison the rheological property with the macroscopic behavior of the solutions in turbulent channel flow, a deeper insight into the mechanisms of drag-reducing surfactant solution has been obtained. For no shear induced structure of surfactant solutions they just show features shear thinning, but the drag reduction is very significant phenomenon. Surfactant solution of the shear induced structure is not a surfactant fluid drag reduction of the necessary elements.

Homogeneous Si films on CaF2/Si(1 1 1) due to boron enhanced solid phase epitaxy

The structure and morphology of Si/CaF₂/Si(1 1 1) structures have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD, GIXRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). While CaF₂ films were grown via molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), Si films on CaF₂/Si(1 1 1) are fabricated by surfactant enhanced solid phase epitaxy (SE-SPE). Here Boron was used as a surfactant to obtain semiconductor films of homogeneous thickness. The Si films are entirely relaxed while the CaF₂ films have both pseudomorphic and relaxed crystallites. After exposure to ambient conditions, the Si films have a very thin native oxide film. The homogeneous Si film partially prevents the incorporation of impurities at the interface between the Si substrate and CaF₂ via migration along residual defects of the CaF₂ film.
