Ultrafast synthesis of near-infrared-emitting aqueous CdTe/CdS quantum dots with high fluorescence

The traditional aqueous route to synthesis CdTe/CdS Core/shell (c/s) quantum dots (QDs) via decomposition of Cd-thiol complexes is usually time consuming. Herein, an ultrafast and facile aqueous synthetic approach under atmospheric pressure for CdTe/CdS c/s QDs with emission from the green to the near-infrared window (535–820 nm) is reported. With purified CdTe core QDs diluted in solution of Cd-3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) complexes, CdTe/CdS c/s QDs with emission wavelengths at 700 and 800 nm can be obtained within 20- and 45-min refluxing under the optimized experimental conditions, respectively. This is the most rapid way to prepare CdTe/CdS c/s QDs in aqueous phase, and the obtained QDs were highly luminescent without postsynthesis treatment. The influences of various experimental factors, including Cd²⁺ concentration, MPA-to-Cd ratio, pH value, and dilution ratio on the growth rate and luminescent properties of the obtained CdTe/CdS c/s QDs, have been taken into consideration. The three processes “purification-dilution-addition” ensure the synthesis environment with high pH value and low core concentration and have a marked impact on the rapid synthesis rate and the resulting high fluorescence of CdTe/CdS c/s QDs.     

Fast Doping of Cu into ZnSe NCs by Hydrazine Promoted Cation Exchange in Aqueous Solution at Room Temperature

Controllable doping is an effective way of tuning the properties of semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs). In this work, a simple strategy of fast doping Cu ions into ZnSe NCs under ambient conditions was proposed. The principle of doping is based on hydrazine (N₂H₄) promoted cation exchange reaction. By direct addition of Cu ion stock solution into the preformed ZnSe NCs, Cu doped ZnSe NCs can be obtained. Furthermore, the emission of doped NCs can be tuned by changing the amount of impurity ion addition. The cation exchange reaction is facilitated by three factors: 1) N₂H₄ addition, 2) fast impurity ions, and 3) partial stabilizer removal. The proposed cation exchange reaction in aqueous solution could be an alternate route for NC doping as well as synthesis of ionic NCs.

任意相位差条纹信号细分方法的研究

为消除传统细分方法中由于两路条纹信号不正交引入的细分误差，提出了一种可对任意相位差条纹信号直接细分的新方法。根据两路条纹信号的极性和幅值大小，把一个信号周期分成8个区段。高速采集两路条纹信号，通过判断信号采样点所处的区段是否跳变对信号幅值交点进行动态跟踪。对不足一个周期的条纹移动，当测量出起点与终点的幅值，计算出其所在的区段及位置后，结合两路信号的交点，可实现对任意相位差条纹信号的细分。实验结果表明，该方法突破了传统细分方法必须信号正交的限制，可对任意相位差信号进行准确地细分，降低了条纹测量中器件安装与调试的难度，具有更强的环境适应性和抗干扰能力。

A problem of Kreck on Poincaré manifolds

An 1-connected closed manifold M is called a Poincaré manifold if any other 1-connected closed manifold with the same homology as that of M is homeomorphic to M. In the metastable range 3pq<2p–3 we answer the question raised by Kreck : for which p and q is the product of two spheres S ^p ×S ^q a Poincaré manifold ?.

基于傅里叶变换的高精度条纹细分方法

针对传统傅里叶变换法在提取条纹图相位中存在的能量泄漏问题,提出了条纹图整周期裁剪的方法,可有效抑制能量泄漏对检相精度的影响,提高傅里叶变换法相位计算的精度。在此基础上,提出了一种基于傅里叶变换时移特性的叠栅条纹细分新方法。与传统傅里叶变换法相比,该方法求取相邻两帧条纹图间的相移,只需经过两次傅里叶变换,不需要截取条纹图的基频再逆变换回空域,因此计算量至少减少了一倍,计算速度大大提高。数值计算结果表明,对两束单色平面波形成的条纹,理想条件下细分精度高达10-12量级;对高斯包络调制的条纹,细分精度至少可达10-3量级。

Qualitative separation of the physical swelling effect on the recovery behavior of shape memory polymer

The physical swelling effect-induced shape recovery is studied in a thermo-responsive styrene-based shape memory polymer (SMP). Fourier transform-infrared (FTIR) test reveals no apparent change in the characteristic polar bonds of CO and O-H after immersing the SMP into toluene solvent. Based on the rubber elastic and relaxation theory, the decrease in internal energy is identified as the driving force for the shape recovery. Subsequently, the rubber elastic theory is further applied to investigate the swelling-induced free/constraint shape recovery in this SMP, and the free-energy function is utilized to analyze the swelling-induced homogenous/inhomogeneous deformation. This study provides a framework to study both the swelling effect-induced shape recovery and complex shape memory behavior in solvent-responsive SMPs.
