Anomalous electronic transport in quasicrystals and related complex metallic alloys

We analyse the transport properties in approximants of quasicrystals α-AlMnSi, 1/1-AlCuFe and for the complex metallic phase λ-AlMn. These phases present strong analogies in their local atomic structures and are related to existing quasicrystalline phases. Experimentally, they present unusual transport properties with low conductivities and a mix of metallic-like and insulating-like characteristics. We compute the band structure and the quantum diffusion in the perfect structure without disorder and introduce simple approximations that allow us to treat the effect of disorder. Our results demonstrate that the standard Bloch–Boltzmann theory is not applicable to these intermetallic phases. Indeed their dispersion relations are flat, indicating small band velocities, and corrections to quantum diffusion, which are not taken into account in the semi-classical Bloch–Boltzmann scheme, become dominant. We call this regime the small velocity regime. A simple relaxation time approximation to treat the effect of disorder allows us to reproduce the main experimental facts on conductivity qualitatively and even quantitatively.     

陶瓷细骨料替代方式对混凝土抗压强度的影响

为了提高废弃陶瓷在混凝土中的利用率，将废弃陶瓷破碎、筛分加工成人工细骨料，按不同比例(10%，20%，30%，40%及50%)，且分别采用“C”替代法(即传统替代方式，要求陶瓷细骨料细度模数与天然河砂细度模数相近即可，等质量取代)、“P”替代法(陶瓷细骨料一对一平均替代对应的不同粒径的天然河砂)、“D”替代法(陶瓷细骨料一对一且仅替代粒径为1.18，2.36和4.75mm粒径相对较大的天然河砂)及“X”替代法(陶瓷细骨料一对一且仅替代粒径为0.15，0.3和0.6mm粒径相对较小的天然河砂)取代天然河砂，制备陶瓷细骨料混凝土.共设计21组混凝土，包括基准混凝土1组，“C”，“P”，“D”及“X”替代法各5组.水胶比均为0.49，进行混凝土28d的抗压强度试验.结果表明:在水胶比为0.49的条件下，陶瓷细骨料掺量不大于50%时，陶瓷细骨料混凝土抗压强度和基准混凝土为同一强度等级，均到达C30强度等级要求；不同的替代方式，对应的陶瓷细骨料最佳掺量不同；不同的陶瓷细骨料掺量，对应的最优替代方式不同.

Interaction between β‐Cyclodextrin and Mixed Cationic‐Anionic Surfactants (2): Aggregation Behavior

The interactions between β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) and the mixtures of cationic‐anionic surfactants in the aqueous solution were investigated by surface tension, rheology, and dynamic light scattering measurements. It was shown that the key‐lock interactions between β‐CD and mixed cationic‐anionic surfactants were stronger than the electrostatic/hydrophobic interactions between cationic and anionic surfactants. The inclusion of β‐CD to surfactants could destroy the ion‐pair and aggregates of cationic‐anionic surfactants, and even inhibited the precipitation of the mixed cationic‐anionic surfactants. Furthermore, the inclusion of β‐CD to surfactants could also destroy the hydrogen bond between β‐CD molecules, inducing the disassociation of the aggregation formed by β‐CD themselves.     

支化侧链偶氮无规共聚物中空和类囊泡聚集体研究

研究了支化侧链型偶氮无规共聚物(PMAPB6P-AA)在THF/H2O混合溶液中的自组装行为.研究发现,通过缓慢增加体系的水含量,可以制备出具有中空结构的非球形聚集体.调节聚合物的初始浓度,可以得到不同粒径的聚集体.聚集体中偶氮生色团的光致异构化速率与异构化程度随聚合物初始浓度的增大而减小.在此基础上,采用更加缓慢的增加水含量的方法,使聚合物分子进行充分的疏水聚集与H-聚集,制备出类囊泡状聚集体.在紫外光照射条件下,观察到类囊泡聚集体发生了光致解聚集.     

Effect of HAP on Stability and Plugging Property of LPFR Dispersion

To improve the stability and plugging property of low-solubility phenol formaldehyde resin (LPFR) in the injection water from Daqing Oilfield, hydrophobically associating polymers (HAP) as a stabilizing agent were used. The size and zeta potential of LPFR, LPFR/HAP molecule aggregates, and turbidity and plugging properties of LPFR dispersions were measured in deionized water, simulation water, and injection water, respectively. The results show that the hydrophobic grouping on the HAP molecule has a similar molecular structure as LPFR, and HAP and LPFR can form complex molecule aggregates in the injection water. The zeta potential of LPFR/HAP molecule aggregates is larger than that of LPFR molecule aggregates. Therefore, the repulsive force operating between LPFR/HAP complex molecule aggregates is increased. HAP enhances the stability of LPFR in the injection water and plugging property of LPFR dispersion in porous medium.     

(5RS)‐5‐(4‐Methoxyphenyl)‐2‐(methylsulfanyl)benzo[g]pyrimido[4,5‐b]quinoline‐4,6,11(3H,5H,12H)‐trione,with Z′ = 3, forms a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework containing five types of hydrogen bond

The title compound, C₂₃H₁₇N₃O₄S, crystallizes with Z′ = 3 in the space group P. Two of the three independent molecules are broadly similar in terms of both their molecular conformations and their participation in hydrogen bonds, but the third molecule differs from the other two in both of these respects. The molecules are linked by a combination of N—H...O, N—H...N, C—H...O, C—H...N and C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds to form a continuous three‐dimensional framework structure within which a centrosymmetric six‐molecule aggregate can be identified as a key structural element.

Facile Surfactant-, Reductant-, and Ag Salt-free Growth of Ag Nanoparticles with Controllable Size from 35 to 660 nm on Bulk Ag Materials

Morphologically and dimensionally controlled growth of Ag nanocrystals has long been plagued by surfactants or capping agents that complicate downstream applications, unstable Ag salts that impaired the reproducibility, and multistep seed injection that is troublesome and time-consuming. Here, we report a one-pot electro-chemical method to fast (∼2 min) produce Ag nanoparticles from commercial bulk Ag materials in a nitric acid solution, eliminating any need for surfactants or capping agents. Their size can be easily manipulated in an unprecedentedly wide range from 35 to 660 nm. Furthermore, the Ag nanoparticles are directly grown on the Ag substrate, highly desirable for promising applications such as catalysis and plasmonics. The mechanistic studies reveal that the concentration of Ag⁺ in the diffusion layer nearby the surface, controlled by the magnitude and duration of voltage, is critical in governing the nanoparticle formation (<1.3 mM) and its dimensional adjustability.     

On the Nano/Micro-Mechanics of Metallic Glass

Metallic glass (MG) is amorphous and has some outstanding properties such as ultrahigh strength, superior elasticity, and excellent thermo-plasticity. However, as MG is relatively new to the metal family, the relationship between its physical properties and amorphous structure is still unclear. This article aims to provide an insightful discussion through a comprehensive review about the investigations in the past few decades on the scientific mechanisms of this class of material. The discussion of the paper will include the following key aspects: (1) the formation mechanism of an amorphous structure through glass transition, (2) the structural characterization and models, (3) the micromechanics of plastic event and shear band, and (4) the correlation between the amorphous structure and its mechanical properties.
