Fluorescence and aggregation behavior of poly(amidoamine) dendrimers peripherally modified with aromatic chromophores: the effect of dendritic architectures

PAMAM dendrimers of the zeroth to fifth generation (G0-5) have been peripherally modified with phenyl, naphthyl, pyrenyl, and dansyl chromophores. Their fluorescence behaviors are strongly affected by the dendritic architectures at different generations. These dendrimers modified with hydrophobic chromphores can self-organize into vesicular aggregates at the low generations G0-3 in water. The size and aggregation number of these vesicles decrease with increasing generation from G0 to G3. Critical aggregation concentration determined by fluorescence spectroscopy reveals that these aggregates can be favorably formed in the order of G3 > G2 > G1. In contrast to the vesicles made from traditional amphiphilic compounds, these dendrimer-based vesicles are very adhesive due to the H-bonding interaction and entanglement of dendritic branches located in the outer layer. A large number of multivesicle assemblies, i.e., "twins" and "quins" consisting of two and five vesicles, were clearly identifiable with transmission electron (TEM) and atomic force microscopy. For the dendrimers with peripheral pyrenyl chromophores, triangle-like vesicles were observed in water. The hydrophobic interphase thickness of the vesicular bilayer is ca. 2.0-3.2 nm determined by fluorescence resonance energy transfer methods, which agrees well with the thickness directly observed with TEM.     

不同磁路电子回旋共振离子源引出实验

空间推进所用的电子回旋共振离子源(ECRIS)应具有体积小、效率高的特点. 本文研究的ECRIS使用永磁体环产生磁场, 有效减小了体积, 该离子源利用微波在磁场中加热电子, 电子与中性气体发生电离碰撞产生等离子体. 磁场在微波加热电子的过程中起关键作用, 同时影响离子源内等离子体的约束和输运. 通过比较四种磁路结构离子源的离子电流引出特性来研究磁场对10 cm ECRIS性能的影响. 实验发现: 在使用氩气的条件下, 特定结构的离子源可引出160 mA的离子电流, 最高推进剂利用率达60%, 最小放电损耗为120 W·A^-1; 所有离子源均存在多个工作状态, 工作状态在微波功率、气体流量、引出电压变化时会发生突变. 离子源发生状态突变时的微波功率、气体流量的大小与离子源内磁体的位置有关. 通过比较不同离子源的引出离子束流、放电损耗、气体利用率、工作稳定性的差异, 归纳了磁场结构对此种ECRIS引出特性的影响规律, 分析了其中的机理. 实验结果表明: 保持输入微波功率、气体流量、引出电压不变时, 增大共振区的范围、减小共振区到栅极的距离, 离子源能引出更大的离子电流; 减小共振区到微波功率入口、气体入口的距离能降低维持离子源高状态所需的最小微波功率和最小气体流量, 提高气体利用率, 但会导致放电损耗增大. 研究结果有助于深化对此类离子源工作过程的认识, 为其设计和性能优化提供参考.     

空间波函数的对称性对氦原子双光子双电离过程中电子关联的影响

通过数值求解含时薛定谔方程,研究了氦原子具有对称空间波函数的1s2s 1S态和具有反对称空间波函数的1s2s 3S态分别作为初态的双光子双电离过程. 结果表明,对于初态为单重态1s2s 1S的双光子双电离过程,两个电离电子的能量分布随激光脉冲持续时间的增加呈现由单峰到双峰的变化,这里的单峰和双峰分别意味着两个电离电子主要携带相等和不等的能量;然而对于初态为三重态1s2s 3S的双光子双电离过程,两个电离电子的能量分布随激光脉冲持续时间的增加总是保持双峰结构. 这些结果表明当原子的初态处于反对称空间波函数时,两电子的空间密度分布具有较少的重叠,从而导致电子在超短激光脉冲中电离时电子关联能无法平均分配.     

静电场对强激光场非序列双电子电离的影响

利用半经典重碰模型计算并研究了He原子在强激光场与静电场的混合场下的非序列双电子电离过程. 由于静电场破坏了激光场电场的反演对称性，在平行于激光场偏振方向的He²⁺离子动量分布不再具有对称双峰结构. 由于超短脉冲具有相似的非对称性，研究静电场对原子在强场中非序列电离的影响，有助于分析超短脉冲非序列电离的过程，进一步了解非序列双电子电离的机理.     

压力及杂质氢对金属锂弹性特性的影响

针对六角密堆金属锂16个原子超晶胞(supercell)、填隙一个氢原子的周期单元，采用基于密度泛函理论的平面波-赝势方法，研究了零温条件下压力及填隙氢掺杂对体系弹性性质的影响.结果表明氢掺杂导致体系的体模量增加.常压下掺杂体系的弹性常数C₁₁，C₃₃，C₆₆和C₁₂高于单质体系，剪切模量C₄₄有所下降，而C₁₃则与单质体系持平.压力作用下C₁₁，C₃₃和C₆₆一直大于单质体系，但C₁₂的值低于单质体系.在2GPa—4GPa压力区间内，弹性常数C₁₃呈反常变化，小于单质体系；在高压区掺杂体系的C₄₄和C₁₃则高于单质体系的相应量值，压力导致掺杂体系和单质体系之间剪切模的偏离加剧.掺杂体系在压力作用下依然保持压缩模的各向同性，具有和单质体系相似的特性. 关键词： 第一性原理 压力效应 弹性常数 金属锂

Crown ether complexes of sodium and potassium 2-(benzotriazol-2-yl)phenolates were synthesized and characterized. In the presence of BnOH these complexes are highly active catalysts for the controlled ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide. The polymerizations are iso-selective and the P_m of polylactide reached 0.77 when the polymerization was performed in toluene at ?60°C; whereas heterorich-polylactide was obtained when the polymerization was carried out in CH₂Cl₂ or THF.

Effects of High Pressure on BC3

High-pressure phases of BC3 are studied within the local density approximation under the density functional theory framework. When the pressure reaches 20 GPa, the layered BC3 that is a semiconductor at ambient pressure, becomes metallic. As the pressure increases, the material changes into a network structure at about 35 GPa. To understand the mechanism of phase transitions, band structure and density of states are discussed. With the increase of pressure, the width of bands broadens and the dispersion of bands enlarges. Additionally, the density of states of the network bears great resemblance to that of diamond. Formation of the sp3 bonding in the network is the main reason for the structural transformation at 35 GPa.
