In this paper we give a necessary and sufficient condition for existence of minimal solution(s) of the linear system A * X ≥ b where A, b are fixed matrices and X is an unknown matrix over a lattice. Next, an algorithm which finds these minimal solutions over a distributive lattice is
given. Finally, we find an optimal solution for the optimization problem min {Z = C * X | A * X ≥ b} where C is the given matrix of coefficients of objective function Z.

A highly selective electrochemical sensor was fabricated based on a modified carbon paste electrode with zinc ferrite nanoparticles (ZnFe2O4 NPs). The nanocomposite has attractive properties such as high surface-to-volume ratio and good electrocatalytic activity towards the drugs acetaminophen (AC), epinephrine (EP), and melatonin (MT), best at working voltages of 0.35, 0.09 and 0.55 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), respectively. The linear ranges (and detection limits) are 6.5–135 (0.4) μmol L?1 for AC, 5–100 (0.7) μmol L?1 for EP, and 6.5–145 (3) μmol L?1 for MT.

In this investigation, we have designed a series of benzene and borazines containing chromophores for employing in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The optimized structures and photo-physical properties of these molecules have been explored by using the density functional theory method (B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p)). These dyes consist of electron-donor (benzene, borazine, fluorinated borazine) and -acceptor/anchoring (tricyanovinyl), connected by the π-conjugated linker as an electron spacer. The Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) analysis has also been employed for studying the origin of charge transfer. The time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) method has also been used to calculate the electronic absorption spectra of these molecules. The maximum absorption wavelengths assign to HOMO → LUMO transition. The electronic coupling constant, electron injection and light harvesting efficiency have been computed by first principle researches. This revealed that the studied molecules would be efficient photosensitizers. 相似文献
Hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) catalyzes synthesis of new polyfunctionalized 4H‐pyrans by reaction of aromatic aldehyde, malononitrile, and β‐keto esters via one‐pot three‐component procedure in water medium. Addition of reactants was performed by two methods led to achieve similar results. Using HMTA in catalytic amount not only represents the economic face of the reaction, but also due to the use of water, a green and safe reaction condition is organized. Thus, the current strategy provides the benefits of high productivity, convenient operation, and environmental friendliness. Structure of all products was proved by elemental analysis, IR, 1H‐NMR, and 13C‐NMR spectroscopy. 相似文献
The electronic structure and properties of the ruthenabenzenes and substituted ruthenabenzenes have been explored using the hybrid density functional B3LYP theory. Systematic studies on the substituent effect in para-substituted ruthenabenzenes complexes have been studied. The following substituents were taken into consideration: H, NO2, CN, CHO, COOH, F, CH3, OH, and NH2. Basic measures of aromatic character were derived from the structure and nucleus-independent chemical shift (NICS). The NICS calculations indicate a correlation between NICS(1.5) and the hardness in all species. The atoms in molecule analysis indicates a correlation between r(Ru-C) bonds and the electron density of bond critical point in all species. 相似文献

The lack of a comparative study about potential of high-power light emitting diodes (LEDs) for photodynamic inactivation (PDI) of pathogenic microorganisms has remained as a challenging issue for researchers. Therefore, the aim of this study is to fill this gap through introduction of an efficient model for in vitro PDI in an aqueous medium. For this purpose, two individual 30 mW/cm2 irradiation systems were designed using suitable sets of green and red LEDs. At another work, Methylene blue (MB) and Rose bengal (RB) as two simple models in the range of 5–150 μM were used in order to compare PDI of E. coli PTCC 1276 using red and green LED systems. Our results showed that a first-order mathematical model has the strength to describe the temporal variation of survival curves. Based on our results, when concentration of photosensitizer increased, the rate of inactivation for RB increased while MB depicted a maximum rate value at 25 μM. In a comparative study, optimum inactivation of E. coli PTCC 1276 obtained during 2- and 10-min irradiation of the LED systems using RB and MB at 150 and 25 μM, respectively. With regard to lower value of inactivation time and higher rate of inactivation for RB, use of simultaneous green high-power LEDs and RB is proposed as an efficient approach for PDI of pathogenic bacteria in future industrial applications. 相似文献
