However, the identifi- cation of g-C3N4 structure transformation induced by strain is greatly lacking. In this work, the Raman spectra of g-C3N4 with external strain are determined theoretically based on the density function theory. Deformation induced by external strain not only regulates the Raman mode positions but also leads to a I^aman mode split- ting, which can be ascribed to crystal symmetry destruction by strain engineering. Our results suggest the use of Raman scattering in structural identification in deformed 9-C3N4 structure.展开更多

Therefore, it is important to optimize the structure, especially in ambiguous and quick-tempo modern warfare. This paper proposes an adaptive evolvement mechanism for the C^4ISR structure to survive the changeable warfare. Firstly, the information age C^4ISR structure is defined and modeled based on the complex network theory. Secondly, taking the observe, orient, decide and act (OODA) model into consideration, four kinds of loops in the C^4ISR structure are pro- posed and their coefficient of networked effects (CNE) is further defined. Then, the adaptive evolvement mechanisms of the four kinds of loops are presented respectively. Finally, taking the joint air-defense C^4ISR as an example, simulation experiments are im- plemented, which validate the evolvement mechanism and show that the information age C41SR structure has some characteristics of small-world network and scale-free network.展开更多

文摘Rare earth-Mg-Ni-based alloys with superlattice structures are new generation negative electrode materials for the nickel metal hydride batteries.Among them,the novel AB_(4)-type superlattice structure alloy is supposed to have superior cycling stability and rate capability.Yet its preparation is hindered by the crucial requirement of temperature and the special composition which is close to the other superlattice structure.Here,we prepare rare earth-Mg-Ni-based alloy and study the phase transformation of alloys to make clear the formation of AB_(4)-type phase.It is found Pr_(5)Co_(19)-type phase is converted from Ce_(5)Co_(19)-type phase and shows good stability at higher temperature compared to the Ce_(5)Co_(19)-type phase in the range of 930-970℃.Afterwards,with further 5℃increasing,AB_(4)-type superlattice structure forms at a temperature of 975℃by consuming Pr_(5)Co_(19)-type phase.In contrast with A_(5)B_(19)-type alloy,AB_(4)-type alloy has superior rate capability owing to the dominant advantages of charge transfer and hydrogen diffusion.Besides,AB_(4)-type alloy shows long lifespan whose capacity retention rates are 89.2%at the 100;cycle and 82.8%at the 200;cycle,respectively.AB_(4)-type alloy delivers 1.53 wt.%hydrogen storage capacity at room temperature and exhibits higher plateau pressure than Pr_(5)Co_(19)-type alloy.The work provides novel AB_(4)-type alloy with preferable electrochemical performance as negative electrode material to inspire the development of nickel metal hydride batteries.

文摘A novel melting infiltration by ultrasonic vibration was investigated and applied to fabricate Ti6Al4V(TC4)lattice structure-reinforced Mg-10Gd-2Y-1Zn-xZr(refer to VW92 hereafter,x=0,0.5 wt%)alloy matrix composites.The edge-to-edge matching model indicates that the well-matching and possible orientation relationships(ORs)between theα-Mg andα-Ti,[10-10]_(α-Mg)//[11-23]_(α-Ti) in(0002)_(α-Mg)//(10-10)_(α-Ti) possesses the smallest misfit of 0.4%(f_(r)),and thus theα-Mg grains can nucleate on the TC4 lattice structure.Interfacial reaction occurred in the TC4/VW92+0.5 wt%Zr composites,and the reaction product was confirmed to be Al_(2)Zr_(3),AlZr_(2) andα-Ti(Zr)particles formed by continuous solution of Zr-Ti.Among the interfacial products,the AlZr_(2) phase is a brittle phase with high-volume fraction,which is not conducive to the load transfer.But generally speaking,theα-Ti(Zr)and theα-Mg tend to form a coherent interface,which is beneficial for improving the interfacial bonding strength of composites.

The products were characterized by IR, and NMR spectroscopic techniques. The two carbonoylthiourea isomers N-(4-bromobutanoyl)-N'-(3-methylphenyl)thiourea (3b) and N-(4-bromobutanoyl)-N'-(4- methylphenyl)thiourea (3c) were obtained in crystalline form by recrystallization from DMSO. X- ray crystallographic studies showed that both compounds 3b and 3c crystallize in triclinic system with space group ofPi. The molecules adopt trans-cis configuration with respect to the positions of 4-bromobutanoyl and tolyl groups respectively, against the thiono C=S bond across their C-N bonds The configuration is attributed by the intrahydrogen bond between the carbonyl oxygen and amide hydrogen atoms. Both crystal structures are stabilized by N-H…S intermolecular hydrogen bonds to form dimers and arranged along the b axis.

文摘The coordination polymer [Zn1.5(2,2?,4??-tpt)(tpa)2]n (2,2?,4??-tpt = 3,4-bis(2- pyridyl)-5-(4-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole, H2tpa = terephthalic acid) has been obtained by solution evaporation method and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TG and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P , with a = 10.331(3), b = 10.596(1), c = 14.966(3) ?, β = 99.029(0)o, V = 1448.86(6) ?3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.668 g/cm3, μ = 1.320 mm-1, F(000) = 740, R = 0.0359 and wR = 0.0841 with I 〉 2σ(I)). In this polymer, the asymmetric unit contains two crystallographically independent Zn(II) ions in different coordination environments. Zn(1) ion is five-coordinated, forming a distorted tetragonal pyramidal geometry, while the Zn(2) ion is six-coordinated to get a distorted octahedral geometry. Each Zn(II) ion is linked by 2,2?,4??-tpt and H2tpa ligands, forming an infinite 2D structure. The existence of O(8)–H(8)???O(2) hydrogen bonding interactions leads the 2D chains to generate a 3D structure. In addition, 1 shows strong photoluminescent emissions in the solid state at room temperature, so it can be used as potential optical materials.
文摘The structure around Ti^(4+) in Bao-SiO_2 -B_2O_3-TiO_2 had been studied by X-ray fluorescence spectra. The results show that the Ti^(4+) mainly exists in the [TiO_4] and enters the network of [SiO_4]. [TiO_4] has the tendency to change to [TiO_6] with the increase of TiO_2 con-tent. When the TiO_2 content increases to about 20mol% the tendency reaches its maximum.

文摘Micro-nano structured Li Fe(1-x)MnxPO4/C(0≤x≤0.05)cathodes were prepared by spray drying,followed by calcination at 700°C.The spherical Li Fe(1-x)MnxPO4/C(0≤x≤0.05)particles with the size of 0.5 to5.0μm are composed of lots of nanoparticles of 20 to 30 nm,and have the well-developed interconnected pore structure.In contrast,when Mn doping content is 3 mol%(x=0.03),the Li Fe(0.97)Mn(0.03)PO4/C demonstrates maximum specific surface area of 31.30 m^2/g,more uniform pore size and relatively better electrochemical performance.The initial discharge capacities are 161.59,157.04 and 153.13 m Ah/g at a discharge rate of 0.2,0.5 and 1 C,respectively.Meanwhile,the discharge capacity retentions are~100%after 120 cycles.The improved electrochemical performance should be attributed to higher specific surface,smaller polarization voltage,and a high Li~+diffusion rate due to the micro-nano porous structure and lattice expansion produced by Mn doping.
