LiNbO3∶Cr∶Cu晶体吸收特性及非挥发全息存储研究

研究了LiNbO3∶Cr∶Cu晶体的吸收特性,发现LiNbO3∶Cr∶Cu（含0.14 wt.% Cr2O3 和 0.011 wt.% CuO）晶体存在两个明显的吸收峰,中心波长分别位于480 nm和660 nm; 随着Cr的含量逐渐减小,Cu的含量逐渐增大,短波段不存在明显吸收峰,掺Cr的含量越大,中心波长在660 nm处的吸收越大；633 nm红光虽然位于中心波长为660 nm的吸收峰内,但它无助于光折变过程.分别采用390 nm紫外光和488 nm蓝光作为敏化光,514 nm绿光作为记录光的记录方案,实现了非挥发全息记录,掺入适量的Cr( 比如NCr=2.795×1025 m－3,NCr/ NCu=1)有助于全息记录性能的提高.     

Sample decomposition in an electrically heated cold-trap inlet system for high speed gas chromatography

Thermal decomposition of some hydrocarbon and chlorinated hydrocarbon compounds in metal capillary tubes used in an inlet system for high speed gas chromatography has been investigated. The metal tube is cooled to about ?75°C by a flow of cold nitrogen gas in order to focus a vapor sample cryogenically. A capacitive discharge power supply is then used to heat the metal tube resistively in order to revaporize the sample and introduce it to the separation column as a plug 5-10 ms wide. The effects of tube temperature, tube material, sample vapor residence time, and type of carrier gas on thermal cracking are described. Use of a copper-nickel alloy tube resulted in less cracking than either pure platinum or pure nickel. Cracking is more significant with hydrogen as carrier gas than with helium. Cracking also increases with increasing sample residence time in the hot tube. Quantitative sample injection with minimum decomposition can be obtained for a variety of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and chlorinated hydrocarbon compounds.     

Nonvolatile memory devices based on self-assembled nanocrystals

Nonvolatile memory devices are one of the most important components in modern electronic devices. Many efforts have been made to fabricate high-density, low-cost, nonvolatile solid-state memory devices for use in portable/mobile electronic devices such as laptop computers, tablet devices, smart phones, etc. Among the many available nonvolatile memory devices, flash memory devices are of great interest to the electronics industry owing to their simple device structure, enabling high-density memory applications. Flash memory devices in which nanoparticles or nanocrystals are used as the charge-trapping elements have advantages over conventional flash memory devices because the charge-trapping layer and memory performance of the former can be readily optimized. Active research has recently been conducted to fabricate and characterize self-assembled-nanocrystal-based nonvolatile memory devices. We reviewed various strategies for fabricating nanocrystal-based nonvolatile memory devices and discussed the programmable memory properties and the device reliability characteristics of nanocrystal-based memory devices to possibly apply nanocrystal-based memory devices to those used in portable/mobile electronic devices. Finally, novel device applications such as printed/flexible/transparent electronic devices were explored based on nanocrystal-based memory devices.     

Gas-chromatographic method of evaluation ofn-alkanol ability for self-association in pure liquid

The values of the gas-chromatographic indicator reflecting the capacity of analytes for self-association in pure liquids, δT _b.p., were estimated for C₁–C₉ and C₁₁ n-alkanols by capillary gas chromatography on a nonpolar stationary phase under isothermal conditions. The δT _b.p. values ofn-alkanols, found as the difference between the boiling points measured directly and those calculated from GC data, are correlated with thermodynamic characteristics of the formation ofn-alkanol associates in pure liquids. Usingn-alkanols as analytes with insignificant temperature increments of the retention indices, it was shown that the δT _b.p. values can be determined under conditions used in gas chromatography with temperature programming. In this way a single chromatographic run can be used to compare the capacities for self-association of analytes boiling over a wide temperature range. The C₂–C₉ n-alkanethiols, which are not associated in neat liquids, have negative δT _b.p. values. An interpretation of this finding is proposed.

Oxygen deficiency effect on resistive switching characteristics of copper oxide thin films

In this Letter, bilayered Cu₂O/CuO thin films were grown on Nb doped SrTiO₃ (Nb:STO) substrates by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy. The current-voltage characteristics of Pt/Cu₂O/CuO/Nb:STO devices show reproducible and pronounced current-voltage hysteresis which was induced by the CuO/Nb:STO junctions. By comparing the current-voltage curves of the bilayered and single-layered CuO thin films, we attribute the prominent switching behavior to the oxygen-vacancies-mediated-carriers-trapped-detrapped process with the aid of the applied forward (reversed) bias voltage.     

Identification strategies for flame retardants employing time‐of‐flight mass spectrometric detectors along with spectral and spectra‐less databases

In the past, the preferred strategy for the identification of unknown compounds was to search in an appropriate mass spectral database for spectra obtained using either electron ionisation (GC‐MS analyses) or collision‐induced dissociation (LC‐MS/MS analyses). Recently, an increase has been seen in the use of accurate mass instruments and spectra‐less databases, based on monoisotopic accurate mass alone. In this article, we describe a systematic workflow for the screening and identification of new flame retardants. This approach utilises LC‐quadrupole‐time‐of‐flight MS and spectra‐less databases based only on monoisotopic accurate mass for the identification of ‘unknowns’. An in‐house database was built, and the input parameters used in the data analysis process were optimised for flame retardant chemicals, so that it can be easily transferred to other laboratories. The procedure was successfully applied to dust, foam and textiles from car interiors and indoor consumer products. The developed method was demonstrated for the main new flame retardant present in Antiblaze V6 and for the three unreported reaction by‐products/impurities present in the same technical mixture.

Autoinductive exponential signal amplification: a diagnostic probe for direct detection of fluoride

A new example of an exponential signal amplification strategy for the direct detection of fluoride is demonstrated. The amplification occurred through reaction of fluoride with a responsive chromogenic probe. The probe activity is based on a unique dendritic chain reaction that generates a fluoride anion, which is the analyte of interest, during the disassembly pathway of the dendritic probe. This autoinductive amplification mechanism may be applied for detection of other analytes by coupling activity of a modified probe with that of the fluoride amplifier.     

Quantum-chemical interpretation of the reorientation of dialkyl-<Emphasis Type="Italic">cis</Emphasis>-9,10-dihydroanthracene-9,10-endofumarates on a silver-containing stationary phase

The chromatographic behavior of a series of dialkyl-cis-9,10-dihydroanthracene-9,10-endofumarates on a silver-containing stationary phase with various mobile phase compositions and at various temperatures was investigated by liquid chromatography. The observed relationships indicate reorientation of the analytes on the surface of the adsorbent with increase in temperature. This is explained by the formation of two types of chelate complexes similar in energy between the analytes and the silver ions. It agrees well with data calculated by the B3LYP/LANL2DZ method.__________Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Éksperimentalnaya Khimiya, Vol. 41, No. 1, pp. 1–6, January–February, 2005.     

Investigation of nonvolatile holographic storage in LiNbO3:Mn:Ce:Fe crystal

We investigate the persistent holographic recording in triply doped LiNbO₃:Mn:Ce:Fe crystals at different oxidation/reduction states. The experimental results show that there is an optimum oxidation/reduction state, which results in the best dynamic range M/#. Compared with doubly doped LiNbO₃:Ce:Fe, we found that the nonvolatile diffraction efficiency and the best dynamic range M/# obtained in triply doped samples are larger than that obtained in doubly doped samples. The reason for the increase of the crystal about the nonvolatile diffraction efficiency and the dynamic range M/# was also explained.
