Electrical conduction nature and phase transition in CaTi1−x FexO3−δ (x = 0.1–0.5)

Transport numbers for oxygen ions and protons are measured by an emf method in the system CaTi_1?x Fe_xO_3?δ (x = 0.1–0.5) in the oxidizing and reducing atmospheres in the temperature interval 973–1173 K. It is shown that the compounds under study are mixed ion-electron conductors at small iron concentrations and electron conductors, at large iron contents. The proton conductivity in the compounds is very poor and does not exceed 0.5% in air. On the basis of the temperature dependences of transport numbers for ions and linear expansion, it is established that the CaTi_0.9Fe_0.1O_3?δ system has a phase transition of a second order in a reducing environment at 1020–1050 K. The total and partial electron conductivities of CaTi_0.9Fe_0.1O_3?δ are studied as a function of the partial pressure of oxygen at 1173 K. The nature of electroconduction in CaTi_1?x Fe_xO_3?δ is discussed.     

基于偶氮苯衍生物的三阶非线性光开关性能的调控

偶氮苯衍生物因其具有特殊的共轭体系常用作光开关特性的三阶非线性光学（NLO）开关材料,但有部分带有特殊基团的偶氮类分子在一般条件下无法显示其性能.然而,这类分子在被调节之后能展示出优异的光控的NLO开关性能.以无光控的NLO开关性能的5-（N-4-偶氮苯基）氨甲基间苯二甲酸为研究对象,并对其潜在的光控NLO开关性能进行调控.经过调节后的这类分子在光照条件下能顺利地经历可逆的顺反异构化反应,且产生三阶非线性性能的转换.其Z-扫描实验结果显示处于反式构型的材料展示出反饱和吸收和自散焦特性;在光照之后,这类材料转化为顺式构型并展现出饱和吸收和自聚焦行为.三阶NLO性能的转换是由于材料的结构发生转变其内部电子产生重排,使得它们在激光刺激下产生不同的响应机制.     

槲皮素在溶液中的化学交换和自扩散运动

通过对溶于氘代二甲亚砜（DMSO d6）中的槲皮素的自扩散系数和槲皮素羟基质子与溶剂中水质子之间的交换速率常数的NMR测量,研究了交换速率常数与扩散系数随温度和含水量的变化情况.结果表明,化学交换与扩散系数是相互独立的两种运动,活泼质子的化学交换并不需要通过槲皮素分子的扩散而进行.但是活泼质子的表观扩散系数却显著地受化学交换的影响.当以活泼质子为对象时,这种影响需要引起足够的重视.     

Measurement of one-bond heteronuclear dipolar coupling contributions for amine and diastereotopic methylene protons

One-bond heteronuclear and two-bond homonuclear residual dipolar couplings measured at methylene or amine sites can be utilized as long-range constraints in structure determination of molecules as well as to facilitate characterization of local conformation by stereospecific assignment of diastereotopic protons. We present two J-modulated HMQC type experiments to measure the one-bond heteronuclear dipolar coupling contributions of geminal protons individually. In addition two-bond homonuclear residual dipolar couplings between the diastereotopic protons are also obtained.     

Extraction of the neutron charge form factor G<Superscript>n</Superscript><Subscript>E</Subscript>(Q<Superscript>2</Superscript>) from the charge form factor of deuteron G<Superscript>d</Superscript><Subscript>C</Subscript>(Q<Superscript>2</Superscript>)

We extract the neutron charge form factor G ⁿ _E(Q ²) from the charge form factor of deuteron G ^d _C(Q ²) obtained from T ₂₀(Q ²) data at 0≤Q ²≤ 1.717 (GeV/c)². The extraction is based on the relativistic impulse approximation in the instant form of the relativistic Hamiltonian dynamics. Our results (12 new points) are compatible with existing values of the neutron charge form factor of other authors. We propose a fit for the whole set (36 points) taking into account the data for the slope of the form factor at Q ² = 0.

Dipolar contrast for dense tissues imaging

A new type of contrast called dipolar contrast is obtained by a decrease in the dipolar line broadening of protons. This contrast is usable for dense tissue NMR imaging and more generally for the study of dipolar linked protons in biological tissues. The sequence used is based on a variant of the Magic Sandwich Echoes (MSE) technique. In vitro experiments on a tendon sample are used to reinforce the image intensity of regions where the direct proton dipolar interaction exists.

Charged particle radiotherapy at the Hyogo Ion Beam Medical Center: Characteristics,technology and clinical results

The Hyogo Ion Beam Medical Center was constructed in 2001 as the world’s first charged particle radiotherapy center where both proton and carbon-ion radiotherapy can be performed. From April 2001 to February 2007, more than 1,400 patients with a variety of cancers were treated. Most of the tumors except for prostate cancer were considered hard to cure with standard treatments such as surgery or conventional x-ray radiotherapy. The clinical results obtained so far are very encouraging, mainly due to the excellent dose localization to the tumor and strong cell killing effects of protons and carbon-ions. The good indications are localized tumors including skull base tumors, head and neck tumors, cancers of the lung, the liver, and the prostate, and bone and soft tissue sarcomas. Charged particle radiotherapy will significantly improve the quality of life of cancer patients and promote their speedy return to normal lives or work if it is used for early stage cancer.     

The fluorescence of polyamidoamine dendrimers peripherally modified with 1,8-naphthalimide groups: Effect of the rare earth ions and protons

We report the absorption spectra, fluorescent spectra and photophysical properties of G 2.0 polyamidoamine dendrimers with peripheral 1,8-naphthalimide groups with the hydrogen ions, the rare earth ions (Er³⁺, Tb³⁺, Nb³⁺, Eu³⁺, Yb³⁺ and Gd³⁺) and the mixture of the rare earth metal and hydrogen ions. The presence of the rare earth ions and hydrogen ions was found to enhance the fluorescence owing to the coordination between the rare earth metal or hydrogen ions and internal amido groups of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) from dendrimer. The result from the 3D isogram of the fluorescence spectra for the dendrimers with peripheral 1,8-naphthalimide groups show that it was obtained for the different emission fluorescence intensity and scope by varying the excitation wavelength and the different rare earth ions as well as its concentration. The results obtained reveal that the capacities of these systems might have acted as a sensitive label agent of the rare earth cations and protons.
