掺杂稀土离子晶体中的电磁感应光透明现象

对在掺杂稀土离子晶体中实现电磁感应光透明进行了实验研究。首先,以Er3＋∶YAG晶体为样品,用旋转波近似下的密度矩阵方程理论计算了探测场的吸收特性随Er3＋离子浓度的变化规律,结果表明：在探测场失谐Δp=0时,形成了一个对于探测光透明的窗口,从而在理论上论证了在掺杂稀土离子晶体中实现电磁感应光透明效应的可行性。设计了一个以Pr3＋∶Y2SiO5晶体为样品的实验激发方案,吸收光谱显示,当温度为6 K时其在共振吸收峰处可形成一个完全透明的窗口,实现了在掺杂离子晶体中的电磁感应光透明。实验还分析了工作温度、耦合场失谐对探测光透过率的影响,结果显示：当样品温度上升到15 K时,透明窗口消失;耦合场的失谐量越大,透射率越小。

Interaction of the Fungal Metabolite Harzianic Acid with Rare-Earth Cations (Pr3+, Eu3+, Ho3+, Tm3+)

Rare-earth elements (REEs) are in all respect a class of new contaminants that may have toxic effects on organisms and microorganisms and information on their interactions with natural ligands should be of value to predict and control their diffusion in natural environments. In the current study, we investigate interactions of tripositive cations of praseodymium, europium, holmium, and thulium with harzianic acid (H₂L), a secondary metabolite produced by selected strains of fungi belonging to the Trichoderma genus. We applied the same techniques and workflow previously employed in an analogous study concerning lanthanum, neodymium, samarium, and gadolinium tripositive cations. Therefore, in the current study, HPLC-ESI-HRMS experiments, circular dichroism (CD), and UV-Vis spectrophotometric absorption data, as well as accurate pH measurements, were applied to characterize bonding interactions between harzianic acid and Pr³⁺, Eu³⁺, Ho³⁺, and Tm³⁺ cations. Problems connected to the low solubility of harzianic acid in water were overcome by employing a 0.1 M NaClO₄/(CH₃OH + H₂O 50/50 w/w) mixed solvent. For Pr³⁺, Ho³⁺, and Tm³⁺, only the mono complexes PrL⁺, HoL⁺, and TmL⁺ were detected and their formation constant determined. Eu³⁺ forms almost exclusively the bis complex EuL2− for which the corresponding formation constant is reported; under our experimental conditions, the mono complex EuL⁺ is irrelevant. Combining the results of the present and previous studies, a picture of interactions of harzianic acid with rare-earth cations extending over 8 of the 17 REEs can be composed. In order to complement chemical information with toxicological information, a battery of bioassays was applied to evaluate the effects of praseodymium, europium, holmium, and thulium tripositive cations on a suite of bioindicators including Aliivibrio fischeri (Gram-negative bacterium), Raphidocelis subcapitata (green alga), and Daphnia magna (microcrustacean), and median effective concentration (EC50) values of Pr³⁺, Eu³⁺, Ho³⁺, and Tm³⁺ for the tested species were assessed.     

Improved Thermoelectric Properties of SrTiO3 via (La,Dy and N) Co-Doping: DFT Approach

This work considers the enhancement of the thermoelectric figure of merit, ZT, of SrTiO₃ (STO) semiconductors by (La, Dy and N) co-doping. We have focused on SrTiO₃ because it is a semiconductor with a high Seebeck coefficient compared to that of metals. It is expected that SrTiO₃ can provide a high power factor, because the capability of converting heat into electricity is proportional to the Seebeck coefficient squared. This research aims to improve the thermoelectric performance of SrTiO₃ by replacing host atoms by La, Dy and N atoms based on a theoretical approach performed with the Vienna Ab Initio Simulation Package (VASP) code. Here, undoped SrTiO₃, Sr_0.875La_0.125TiO₃, Sr_0.875Dy_0.125TiO₃, SrTiO_2.958N_0.042, Sr_0.750La_0.125Dy_0.125TiO₃ and Sr_0.875La_0.125TiO_2.958N_0.042 are studied to investigate the influence of La, Dy and N doping on the thermoelectric properties of the SrTiO₃ semiconductor. The undoped and La-, Dy- and N-doped STO structures are optimized. Next, the density of states (DOS), band structures, Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity per relaxation time, thermal conductivity per relaxation time and figure of merit (ZT) of all the doped systems are studied. From first-principles calculations, STO exhibits a high Seebeck coefficient and high figure of merit. However, metal and nonmetal doping, i.e., (La, N) co-doping, can generate a figure of merit higher than that of undoped STO. Interestingly, La, Dy and N doping can significantly shift the Fermi level and change the DOS of SrTiO₃ around the Fermi level, leading to very different thermoelectric properties than those of undoped SrTiO₃. All doped systems considered here show greater electrical conductivity per relaxation time than undoped STO. In particular, (La, N) co-doped STO exhibits the highest ZT of 0.79 at 300 K, and still a high value of 0.77 at 1000 K, as well as high electrical conductivity per relaxation time. This renders it a viable candidate for high-temperature applications.
