Measuring the extent of phase separation during polymerization of composite latex particles using modulated temperature DSC

The morphological features of composite latex particles predominantly develop during the polymerization process and depend upon a significant number of variables. In this study, we have concentrated on the relative polarities of the two polymers in the particles and the rate at which we added the monomers during semibatch reactions containing the seed polymer latex. Our particular interest was to develop data that could reveal the extent of polymer phase separation as a function of the amount of monomer fed, and to characterize the morphology resulting from it. While TEM is the most common analytical technique employed, we show in this paper that modulated temperature DSC can generate data that allows us to follow the phase separation process as the monomer feed progresses. By considering the possibilities of having “phases” within the particles of pure polymer, homogeneously mixed (but nonequilibrium) polymers, gradient and interfacial polymer, we have been able to quite successfully simulate the DSC data. This results in quantitative estimates of the relative amounts of these “phases” and their polymer compositions. Combining these results with TEM photos showing the spatial characteristics of the morphology, we can achieve a much greater understanding of the physical structure of the composite latex particles. In many cases we find that phase separation is far from complete at the end of the reaction process. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 43: 2790–2806, 2005     

正交复用QAM系统的定时和载波相位跟踪新算法

在数字信号传输系统中，正交复用ＱＡＭ（ＯＭＱＡＭ）是目前最有效的一种抗信道失真传输技术，但它对系统的定时偏移和载波相位误差非常敏感。本文基于高阶累积量技术，导出了一种新的ＯＭＱＡＭ系统定时和载波相位的跟踪算法。计算机仿真证实了这一理论分析结果，并同原有的Ｈｉｒｏｓａｋｉ算法做了比较     

Ray aberrations of two-dimensional oblique lattices on the self-image plane

We extend the geometrical theory of aberration for a self-imaging system to the case of two-dimensional oblique lattices. In our approach, the fundamental translation vectors of the lattice are not restricted in both length and orientation. Evaluating the disturbance of light through the oblique lattice under coherent illumination, we find the conditions of constraint which limit the self-imaging of the oblique lattice. Various types of oblique lattices are shown to obey the self-imaging conditions. We derive the equations to trace the optical paths of self-imaging rays and then analyze the ray aberrations which arise from the difference between the optical paths of a self-imaging ray and of the corresponding actual ray. The ray aberrations are shown to disappear when the periods of the lattice are large compared with the wavelength of light. We find that the ray aberrations carried by self-imaged oblique lattices are totally undercorrected and the aberrated image patches are displaced along the direction tangent vector of a chief ray.

The phase transition of the directed polymer on disordered hierarchical lattices

The directed polymer on disordered hierarchical lattices is studied using an exact renormalization scheme. The phase transition is studied and a hyperscaling relation is derived. The fixed distributions of the renormalized energies are obtained numerically. The specific heat and associated exponents are computed from the fixed distributions.

Excitation of defect modes from the extended photonicband-gap structures of 1D photonic lattices

This paper stuides numerically the model equation in a one dimensional defective photonic lattice by modifying the potential function to a periodic function. It is found that defect modes (DMs) can be regarded as Bloch modes which are excited from the extended photonic band-gap structure at Bloch wave-numbers with k x = 0. The DMs for both positive and negative defects are considered in this method.
