Preparation of Micron-size Functional Fluorescent Microspheres

As a kind of special functional microspheres, fluorescent polymer microspheres could be used in cell label and separation, blood flow assay, flow cytometer marking, chemical reaction assay,and in analyst of the transform and diffusion of particles in soil 1. However, one of the most important applications of fluorescent microspheres is in the high-throughput screening of drugs (HTS) 2. Through affinity interaction, radioactive ligands (latent drugs) are bound to fluorescent microspheres covered by receptor, and luminescence is produced by radioactivity, so ligands can be assayed and screened.In this study, we developed a technique for preparing micron-size fluorescent microspheres with different functional groups. The methods included the synthesis of micron-size polystyrene microspheres through the dispersion polymerization of styrene in different media such as ethanol,ethanol-water, and isopropanol; the functional polystyrene microspheres were prepared by introduction of functional monomers into the reaction system of styrene; the functional fluorescent microspheres were obtained by the way of dying functional microspheres in the fluorescent material's ethanol solvent.The average diameter of microspheres was in the range of 1～10 μm, and the distribution was normal distribution. The functional groups included -OH, -CHO, -COOH, -CONH2, and SO3H. The absorbing spectrum and exciting spectrum were tested, the results showed that the maximal absorbance of fluorescent microsphere was near 306.5 nm, and its maximal excitation was near 362 nm. The excitation spectrum of fluorescent material (DPO) and fluorescent microspheres were shown in figure 1, and it indicated that the developed fluorescent microspheres showed the same excitation behavior like DPO, which related to the fluorescent microspheres had stable luminescence property.     

Doubly excited3Se,3De and3Ge states of two-electron atomic systems

Summary Time-dependent perturbation theory has been applied to calculate the doubly excited triplet statesNsns:³S^e,Npnp:³D^e andNdnd:³G^e (N=2, 3, 4,n=N+1, ... ,5) for He, Li⁺, Be²⁺ and B³⁺. A time-dependent harmonic perturbation causes simulataneous excitation of both the electrons with a change of spin state. The doubly excited energy levels have been identified as the poles of an appropriately constructed linearized variational functional with respect to the driving frequency. In addition to the transition energies, effective quantum numbers of these doubly excited states have been calculated and analytic representations of their wave functions are obtained. These are utilized to estimate the Coulomb repulsion term for these states which checks the consistency of the wave functions. These wave functions may also be used for calculating other physical properties of the systems.

Emission characteristics of high-powered microwave induced plasma optical emission spectrometry by using nitrogen–oxygen mixture gas

A high-powered, microwave-induced nitrogen–oxygen plasma (N₂–O₂–MIP) generated by using an Okamoto cavity at atmospheric pressure was investigated when the observation height, the flow rate of carrier gas, and the oxygen content were varied as the experimental parameters. The emission characteristics of the plasma were evaluated with regard to the excitation temperature and the intensity ratio of atomic line to ionic line. The excitation temperature of the N₂–O₂–MIP was in the range of 5100–5700 K when the oxygen content was varied from 0 to 30% at the observation height of 7 mm and the carrier gas flow rate of 0.6 l/min. The intensity ratio of atomic line to ionic line was elevated with an increase in the oxygen content.     

Optical time-resolved study of the excitation dynamics*

Transient behaviour of the excited states originated from the neutral and the charged species is discussed using data from time-resolved experiments. Complex transient characteristics obtained for the slightly charged poly-(bithiophene) film during electrochemical doping were explained in terms of sequential molar fraction changes of the neutral species, the radical cation and the π-dimerized radical cations. Femtosecond transient absorption measurement carried out in time range of 0-4 ns for a two-photon excited dye reveals a multi-exponent decay with well separated relaxation times and the distinct relaxation mechanisms. At high irradiance and a sufficient fluence, the multi-photon excitation processes affect the subpicosecond response and lead to formation of the photo-products.

线性响应和两种态特定方法模拟AF350电子跃迁的溶剂效应

在极化连续模型框架下比较了线性响应与两种不同态特定方法计算的溶液中Alexa Fluor 350(AF350)分子激发能和光谱移动值的差异. AF350的第一激发态S0→S1电子跃迁属于π→π^*跃迁, 主要对应于最高占据分子轨道(HOMO)到最低空轨道(LUMO)的跃迁. 该分子激发态偶极矩大于基态偶极矩, 激发态时溶质溶剂相互作用比基态时更强, 随着溶剂极性增大, 会发生光谱红移的现象. 与实验值相比, 线性响应和两种态特定方法均高估了激发能, 其中以IBSF(Improta-Barone-Scalmani-Frisch)方法得到的激发能最小, 矫正的基态反应场方法(cGSRF)得到的激发能最大. 对于光谱移动值, 3种方法与实验值相比都偏小, 线性响应方法(LR)计算出的误差最大, 而IBSF方法得到的结果与实验值最吻合, 是预测溶液中AF350分子激发能和光谱移动值最准确的方法. 对比了Marcus传统理论和基于约束平衡的非平衡溶剂化理论的结果, 发现后者得到的激发能和光谱移动值更接近于实验值.

悬浮液雾化进样感耦等离子体基本参数研究Ⅰ.等离子体激发温度测定

研究了悬浮液雾化进样感耦等离子体原子发射光谱基本参数——等离子体激发温度。实验用“线为温标线，并采用多谱线法测量溶液雾化进样和0．05％二氧化钛悬浮液雾化进样等离子体激发温度。测定结果显示这两种雾化进样方式的等离子体激发温度接近，为5000-6000K。随感耦等离子体原子发射光谱仪器功率的提高，悬浮液雾化进样等离子体激发温度也相应增大，但增大幅度较小。悬浮液雾化进样等离子体发射光谱分析，若单纯改变仪器功率对于颗粒在等离子体中的原子化效率没有显著的变化，因此对于分析结果没有显著的改善作用。
