The catalyst exhibited high ac- tivity and high selectivity of dimethyldichlorosilane (M2) in the stirred bed reactor. The effect of the proportion of CuC1 used was studied and 10%-30% CuC1 gave the best yield of M2. The use of CuC1 decreased the induction pe- riod of reaction, improved the selectivity in the induction stage, and gave a longer stable stage. These results sug- gest that bi-comoonent catalyst has advantazes in the direct synthesis reaction.展开更多

The secular motion frequencies of the two different ions are determined and compared with those in the single-component Coulomb crystals. In the radial direction, the resonant motion frequencies of the two ionic species shift toward each other due to the strong motion coupling in the ion trap. In the axial direction, the motion frequency of the laser-cooled ^40Ca^+is impervious to the sympathetically cooled ^9Be^+ ions because the spatially separation of the two different ionic species leads to the weak motion coupling in the axial direction.展开更多
