Electroless nickel plating on optical fiber probe

As a component of near-field scanning optical microscope （NSOM）, optical fiber probe is an important factor influncing the equipment resolution. Electroless nickel plating is introduced to metallize the optical fiber probe. The optical fibers are etched by 40% HF with Turner etching method. Through pretreatment, the optical fiber probe is coated with Ni-P film by electroless plating in a constant temperature water tank. Atomic absorption spectrometry （AAS）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry （EDXS） are carried out to characterize the deposition on fiber probe. We have reproducibly fabricated two kinds of fiber probes with a Ni-P film： aperture probe and apertureless probe. In addition, reductive particle transportation on the surface of fiber probe is proposed to explain the cause of these probes.     

二硫化钼中空微球的制备、表征以及光催化性能

以四丁基溴化铵为添加剂,采用水热法制备出直径为2～5μm的二硫化钼(MoS2)空心微球,研究了反应温度、添加剂量和时间对MoS2物相和形貌的影响。XRD、SEM、EDS、TEM、XPS表征结果表明,当反应温度为240℃时可得到结晶良好的六方相2H-MoS2,MoS2的形貌主要受四丁基溴化铵用量的影响,随着用量的增多MoS2历经了球状-花球状-不规则堆积状的递变。对MoS2中空微球的形成机制进行了探讨,认为在反应中四丁基溴化铵起到了模板的作用。通过制备样品对罗丹明B的降解评估了二硫化钼中空微球的光催化性能,其对罗丹明的降解效率达到90%。
