Major chemical components of PM(2.5)at the four sites were daily sampled and analyzed. Most of daily concentrations of SO2(7–82 μg/m^3),O3(27–171 μg/m^3) and NOx(14–213 μg/m^3) were below the limits of the National Ambient Air Quality Standard(NAAQS)in China. However,PM(2.5)concentrations(143–168 μg/m^3) were 2-fold higher than NAAQS.Higher PM(2.5)concentrations(~ 150 μg/m^3) were measured during the pre-harvest and harvest at the urban site,while PM(2.5)concentrations significantly increased from 250 to400 μg m^(-3) at suburban and rural sites with widespread biomass burning. At all sites,PM(2.5)components were dominated by organic carbon(OC) and followed by soluble component sulfate(SO4^(2-)),ammonium(NH4~+) and nitrate(NO3^-). Compared with rural sites,urban site had a higher mineral contribution and lower potassium(K~+and K) contribution to PM(2.5).Severe atmospheric haze events that occurred from October 21 to 23 were attributed to strong source emissions(e.g.,biomass burning) and unfavorable air diffusion conditions.Furthermore,coal burning originating from winter heating supply beginning on October 18 increased the atmospheric pollutant emissions. For entire crop harvest period,the Positive Matrix Factorization(PMF) analysis indicated five important emission contributors in the Changchun region,as follows: secondary aerosol(39%),biomass burning(20%),supply heating(18%),soil/road dust(14%) and traffic(9%).展开更多

The thickness of monolayer MoS2 is 0.65 nm. Monolayer MoS2 has direct band-gap (1.8 eV). Because of the unique electrical, optical, and mechanical properties, monolayer MoS2 has promising application prospects in nanoelectronic and optolelectronic devices. Considering the radiation environment which these devices work in, it is necessary to estimate the radiation resistance ability of MoS2.展开更多
