TiO2纳米棒光阳极的制备及性能改进

首先采用水热法制备 TiO2纳米棒光阳极,并引入 Au@SiO2纳米颗粒对其性能进行改善。结果表明,Au@SiO2纳米颗粒的引入虽然增强了光吸收,但同时减少了染料在 TiO2纳米棒上的吸附量,反而导致了电池器件性能的下降。因此,在 TiO2纳米棒/Au@SiO2纳米颗粒结构上进一步生长一层 TiO2钝化层：一方面可增加染料吸附量;另一方面有利于减少电荷复合。基于这种光阳极组装的染料敏化太阳能电池获得了 2.34%的光电转换效率,较单一 TiO2纳米棒光阳极组装的电池效率提高了 60%。     

等效时移随机共振的载波同步

针对随机共振应用于单频载波同步时存在的噪声能量转化不彻底、采样点数量需求高的问题,提出了随机共振等效时移的载波同步方法。首先,通过充分利用接收信号的先验信息,设计样点等效时移过程,降低了载波同步对采样率的需求;其次,通过设计多级迭代的随机共振系统,并设置本地同频方波信号,提高了噪声的转化效率;最后,给出了较为完整的时移校准和时延校准的模块设计。理论分析和仿真结果均表明该方法能够有效地实现载波同步,并较现有方法提高约10 d性能。     

利用Gibbs采样的同频混合信号单通道盲分离

针对非合作接收的单通道同频数字调制混合信号,提出一种基于Gibbs采样的分离算法。该算法利用统计的方法获得未知符号序列概率密度的随机样本,运算复杂度随信道阶数的增加不呈指数增长。重点研究了基于单符号对、多符号对的分离算法和信道响应的跟踪,并对Gibbs分离算法和PSP分离算法的性能进行了详细的分析比较。仿真结果表明,针对2路QPSK调制的混合信号,在与L=4时的PSP算法具有近似分离性能的同时,Gibbs分离算法可使复杂度降低近17倍。

Fabrication of Gene Carrier via Self-assembly of Poly[(dimethylamino)ethyl Methacrylate] and Poly(aspartic acid)-grafted-Poly(ethylene glycol)

A biocompatible complex has been prepared as gene carrier via electrostatic interaction, which is composed of a polycation, that is, poly[(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] end-capped with cholesterol moiety (Chol-PDMAEMA₃₀), along with a polyanion named poly(aspartic acid)-grafted-poly(ethylene glycol) (PASP-g-PEG). The complexes have less cytotoxicity compared to the case of alone Chol-PDMAEMA₃₀ or branched polyethylenimine (PEI) system.

In the present study, biocompatible complexes have been prepared as gene carrier via electrostatic interaction, which is composed of a polycation, that is, poly[(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] end-capped with cholesterol moiety (Chol-PDMAEMA₃₀), along with a polyanion named poly(aspartic acid)-grafted-poly(ethylene glycol) (PASP-g-PEG). We first synthesized polysuccinimide (PSI) via condensation polymerization of aspartic acid, and then used PEG-NH₂ to react with the partial pentacyclic rings of PSI to yield a kind of graft copolymer polysuccinimide-grafted-poly(ethylene glycol) (PSI-g-PEG). After hydrolysis of the residual succinimide units, a new biodegradable and biocompatible graft copolymer PASP-g-PEG was prepared successfully. Chol-PDMAEMA₃₀ was synthesized via oxyanion-initiated polymerization, as reported in our previous literature. We investigated the interactions between every pair among calf thymus DNA, Chol-PDMAEMA₃₀, and PASP-g-PEG by agarose gel retardation assay. The results indicate that the prepared complexes could completely bind DNA and may become more stable during systemic circulation. The complexes have less cytotoxicity compared to the case of alone Chol-PDMAEMA₃₀ or branched polyethylenimine (PEI) system. Furthermore, the physicochemical properties of the complexes were also investigated by zeta potential, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements. These biodegradable and biocompatible polymeric carriers have potential applications in gene delivery.     

Study of Microwave Irradiation Polymerization in the Presence of Different Carriers

ABSTRACT

The influence of the presence of an inorganic carrier in the polymerization systems was investigated in this paper. Ten polymerization systems that contained different inorganic carriers such as Al₂O₃, SiO₂ were studied. The ten polymerization systems are dibutyltin Maleate (DBTM) and allyl thiourea (AT), DBTM and stearic acid vinyl ester (SAVE), SAVE and maleic anhydride (MH), SAVE and acrylamide (AM), itaconic acid (IA) and AM, SAVE and IA, AM and MH, IA, sodium acrylate (AANa), AM. It was found that the activity of monomer can be changed in the presence of a carrier and furthermore, the different species of carrier influence the activity of same monomer differently in the polymerization.     

Indirect hydrogen analysis by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC–MS)

Gas chromatography (GC) is an analytical tool very useful to investigate the composition of gaseous mixtures. The different gases are separated by specific columns but, if hydrogen (H₂) is present in the sample, its detection can be performed by a thermal conductivity detector or a helium ionization detector. Indeed, coupled to GC, no other detector can perform this detection except the expensive atomic emission detector. Based on the detection and analysis of H₂ isotopes by low‐pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (MS), a new method for H₂ detection by GC coupled to MS with an electron ionization ion source and a quadrupole analyser is presented. The presence of H₂ in a gaseous mixture could easily be put in evidence by the monitoring of the molecular ion of the protonated carrier gas. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
