线形同轴耦合式微波等离子体CVD法硬质合金微型钻头金刚石涂层沉积

本文介绍了利用线形同轴耦合式微波等离子体CVD法在硬质合金微型钻头(微钻)上沉积金刚石涂层的初步实验结果.微型钻头的直径为0.5mm,其中WC晶粒的尺寸约为0.5μm.在沉积前,先用Murakami溶液(10gKOH+10gK3[Fe(CN)6]+100ml H2O)对微钻刻蚀10min,使其表面粗化,然后用硫酸-双氧水溶液(10ml98wt;H2SO4+100ml 38;m/vH2O2)对其浸蚀60s,以去除其表面的Co.在金刚石涂层过程中发现,由于微钻尖端在微波电磁场中产生较集中的辉光放电现象,因而在微钻尖端很难获得金刚石涂层.针对这种金刚石涂层过程中的"尖端效应",尝试使用了金属丝屏蔽的方法以改变微钻周围的微波电磁场分布,克服了上述金刚石涂层过程中的"尖端效应",首次成功地采用微波等离子体CVD法在微钻上沉积了厚度为1.5μm的金刚石涂层.

用溶胶-凝胶和浸渍-还原相结合的方法制得M/MoO3-TiO2 (M=Pd, Cu, Ni和Ag)光催化剂。利用X-射线衍射(XRD)、程序升温还原(TPR)、红外光谱(IR)、程序升温脱附(TPD)、紫外-可见漫反射光谱(UV-VisDRS)和光反应等技术,研究了负载金属复合半导体的物相结构、吸附性能、吸光性能和光催化反应性能。结果表明,金属M(M=Pd, Cu)负载在复合半导体上,延迟了TiO2由锐钛矿向金红石相的转化,增强了Mo与载体TiO2的相互作用,促进Mo物种由四面体配位向八面体配位转化,使TiO2光吸收限发生蓝移,对可见光部分的吸收明显增加,拓宽了催化剂的光响应范围;固体材料吸光性能强弱顺序Pd/MoO3-TiO2 >Cu/MoO3-TiO2>Ag/MoO3-TiO2>Ni/MoO3-TiO2;Pd对CO2吸附能力过强,卧式吸附态脱附温度高,光催化效率不高;金属Cu对CO2吸附能力适中,CO2与C3H6脱附温度较接近,实现了光-表面-热的协同作用,光量子效率最高。     

Chemical composition and antioxidant activity of Borago officinalis L. leaf extract growing in Algeria

The aqueous and hydroalcoholic extracts of borage (Borago officinalis) leaves from Annaba region (Algeria) were preliminary analyzed for their phenolic profile (total phenolics, total flavonoids, total flavonols, total tannins and total anthocyanins). These extracts were evaluated for their antioxidant properties by different methods such as DPPH radical scavenging, test NBT and total antioxidant activity. The two extracts have exhibited a high antiradical capacity. Indeed, the ethanolic extract showed the lower IC50 values and the highest amount of phenolics (94.09 ± 1.72 mg gallic acid/g dry extract). Using LC-MS/MS analysis, it was possible to identify phenolic acids, flavonoids, sterol and for the first time oleuropein was identified in the aqueous extract of the plant. The obtained results have demonstrated that phenolic compounds are the major contributor to the antioxidant activity of plants.     

Distance signless Laplacian eigenvalues of graphs

Suppose that the vertex set of a graph G is V(G)=\{v\mathrm{1},v\mathrm{2},\mathrm{...},vn\}. The transmission Tr(vi) (or D_i) of vertex vi is defined to be the sum of distances from vi to all other vertices. Let Tr(G) be the n\times n diagonal matrix with its (i, i)-entry equal to {{\displaystyle Tr}}_G(vi). The distance signless Laplacian spectral radius of a connected graph G is the spectral radius of the distance signless Laplacian matrix of G, defined as L(G)=Tr(G)+D(G), where D(G) is the distance matrix of G. In this paper, we give a lower bound on the distance signless Laplacian spectral radius of graphs and characterize graphs for which these bounds are best possible. We obtain a lower bound on the second largest distance signless Laplacian eigenvalue of graphs. Moreover, we present lower bounds on the spread of distance signless Laplacian matrix of graphs and trees, and characterize extremal graphs.     

QCM based sensor for detecting volumetric properties of liquids

We introduce a microacoustic sensor, which combines the quartz crystal microbalance, a liquid-filled cavity and an intermediate artificial layer with effective acoustic properties. Each of the three components fulfils a specific task. The quartz vibrates in its thickness shear mode and acts as source and detector of shear waves, which penetrate the intermediate artificial layer and excite a resonance in the liquid-filled cavity. Both the piezoelectric transducer and the liquid-filled cavity are high-Q resonators with well-adjusted resonance frequencies very close to each other. The intermediate artificial layer couples the two resonators in a distinct manner via control of the propagation of acoustic waves between the quartz crystal and the liquid-filled cavity layer. The origin of the sensor signal is a change of the resonance frequency of the liquid-filled cavity caused by variations of acoustic properties of the liquid analyte inside the cavity, first of all speed of sound. This resonance appears as second resonance peak in the admittance spectrum of the quartz crystal.     

On the numerical solution of nonplanar dust-acoustic super rogue waves in a strongly coupled dusty plasma

The occurrence of cylindrical and spherical low-frequency dust-acoustic freak waves (DAFWs) in a strongly coupled dusty plasma is numerically investigated in the framework of the phenomenological generalized hydrodynamic model. The basic equations are reduced to a modified/nonplanar nonlinear Schrödinger equation (mNLSE) using a reductive perturbation method. The existing regions of instability structures have been carefully identified. For studying the propagation of rogue waves in case of nonplanar (cylindrical and spherical coordinates), the mNLSE has been solved numerically. The effects of nonplanar geometries on the basic features of the DAFWs for the first- and second-orders rogue waves are discussed. Finally, our results are of relevance in ultradense situations where nonplaner geometrical effects are significant. In particular, we expect for our findings to be important to understand the DA breathers experimentally in a strongly coupled dusty plasma.     

Characteristics of a dual‐radio‐frequency cylindrical inductively coupled plasma

The plasma parameters such as electron density, effective electron temperature, plasma potential, and uniformity are investigated in a new dual‐frequency cylindrical inductively coupled plasma (ICP) source operating at two frequencies (2 and 13.56 MHz) and two antennas (a two‐turn high‐frequency antenna and a six‐turn low‐frequency (LF) antenna). It is found that the electron density increases with 2 MHz power, whereas the electron temperature and plasma potential decrease with 2 MHz power at a fixed 13.56 MHz power. Moreover, the plasma uniformity can be improved by adjusting the LF power. These results indicate that a dual‐frequency synergistic discharge in a cylindrical ICP can produce a high‐density, low‐potential, low‐effective‐electron‐temperature, and uniform plasma.

Microfluidic chip-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry for trace elements and their species analysis in cells

Abstract

Accurate identification and quantification of trace elements and their species in cells is an important prerequisite for the exploration of their physiological function and related mechanisms of process involving trace elements/species in human body. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is a powerful analytical instrument for trace elements detection, while it still suffers from insufficient limits of detection, interference from complex cell matrix, and incompatible sample consumption in cells analysis. Microfluidic chips which possess advantages of low sample/reagent consumption, rapid analysis speed and high spatial resolution provide perfect miniaturized and integrated platforms for cell analysis. In this article, microfluidic chip-ICP-MS techniques for trace elements and their species analysis in cells were reviewed. Both chip-based pretreatment techniques (e.g., magnetic solid phase microextraction (MSPME), monolithic capillary microextraction (MCME), liquid phase microextraction (LPME)) including chip-based array microextraction techniques for trace elements and their species analysis and droplet chip for single cell analysis were introduced. The newly developed methods of microfluidic chips in combination with ICP-MS for trace elements and their species analysis in small numbers of cells and even single cell were critically discussed, including chip-based MSPME/MCME/LPME-(electrothermal vaporization-ICP-)MS, on-line chip-based array MSPME/MCME-ICP-MS, on-line chip-based array MSPME-high performance liquid chromatography-ICP-MS and online droplet chip-time-resolved ICP-MS. These methodologies were demonstrated with high sensitivity, high throughput, good matrix resistance and low sample/reagent consumption, contributing to the quantification of trace elements/species in cells and even single cells. Relevant 20 references are included herein, and the development trend of microfluidic chip-ICP-MS techniques for cells analysis is prospected.
