The model solves reduced equations along the stagnation streamline and predicts nearly identical results as the numerical solution of the full-field Navier-Stokes equations. The high efficiency of this model makes it useful to investigate the overall quantitative behavior of related physical-chemical phenomena. In this paper two important properties of hypersonic flow, shock stand-off distance and oxygen dissociation, are studied using the quasi-one-dimensional model with the ideal dissociating gas model. It is found that the shock stand-off distance is affected by both chemical and thermal non-equilibrium.The shock stand-off distance will increase when the flow conditions are changed from equilibrium to non-equilibrium, because the average density of the shock-compressed gas will decrease as a result of the increase in translational energy. For oxygen dissociation, the maximum value of its dissociation degree along the stagnation line varies with the flight altitude. It is increased at first and decreased thereafter with the altitude, which is due to the combination effect of the equilibrium shift and chemical non-equilibrium relaxation. The overall variation of the maximum dissociation is then plotted in the speed and altitude coordinates as a reference for engineering application.展开更多

A crystal physical model is applied which takes into account two the most important hole-phonon interaction mechanisms. One is similar to that of deformation potential and the other is of polaron type. The scattering on defects is also considered and it is crucial for the explanation of the transition. The phonon polarization operator and the renormalized phonon spectrum are calculated in the random phase approximation for different temperatures applying the method of Green functions. We show that the transition is of Peierls type. The effect of lattice distortion on the dispersion of renormalized acoustic phonons is analyzed.展开更多

This analysis tool is based on an adapted version of the Euler equations solved by a time-marching, finite-volume method. The Euler equations have been extended by including source terms expressing the blade-flow interactions. These source terms are determined using the ve- locity triangles and a row-by-row representation of the blading at mid-span. The losses and deviations undergone by the fluid across each blade row are supplied by correlations. The resulting flow solver is a performance pre- diction tool based only on the machine geometry, offering the possibility of exploring the entire characteristic map of a multistage compressor or turbine. Its efficiency in terms of CPU time makes it possible to couple it to an optimization algorithm or to a gas turbine performance tool. Different test-cases are presented for which the calculated characteristic maps are compared to experimental ones.展开更多

Polycrystalline samples were synthesized by the conventional solid state reaction method. X-ray diffrac- tion analysis reveals a quasi-one-dimensional hexagonal crystal structure with (Mo3As3)2 linear chains separated by K^+ ions, similar as previously reported K2Cr3As3, with the space group of P-6m2 (No. 187) and the refined lattice parameters a = 10.145(5) A and c = 4.453(8) A. Electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, and heat capacity measurements exhibit bulk superconductivity with the onset Tc at 10.4 K in K2Mo3As3 which is higher than the isostructural Cr-based superconductors. Being the same group VIB transition elements and with similar structural motifs, these Cr and Mo based superconductors may share some common underlying origins for the occurrence of superconductivity and need more investigations to uncover the electron pairing within a quasi-one-dimensional chain structure.展开更多

文摘This study proposes a quasi-one-dimensional model to predict the chemical nonequilibrium flow along the stagnation streamline of hypersonic flow past a blunt body. The model solves reduced equations along the stagnation streamline and predicts nearly identical results as the numerical solution of the full-field Navier-Stokes equations. The high efficiency of this model makes it useful to investigate the overall quantitative behavior of related physical-chemical phenomena. In this paper two important properties of hypersonic flow, shock stand-off distance and oxygen dissociation, are studied using the quasi-one-dimensional model with the ideal dissociating gas model. It is found that the shock stand-off distance is affected by both chemical and thermal non-equilibrium.The shock stand-off distance will increase when the flow conditions are changed from equilibrium to non-equilibrium, because the average density of the shock-compressed gas will decrease as a result of the increase in translational energy. For oxygen dissociation, the maximum value of its dissociation degree along the stagnation line varies with the flight altitude. It is increased at first and decreased thereafter with the altitude, which is due to the combination effect of the equilibrium shift and chemical non-equilibrium relaxation. The overall variation of the maximum dissociation is then plotted in the speed and altitude coordinates as a reference for engineering application.

文摘One-dimensional(1D)topological insulators are superior for low-dissipation applications owing to the 1D character of surface states where scatterings other than prohibited backscattering are further restricted.Among the proposed candidates for 1D topological materials,TaNiTe_(5)has attracted intensive attention for its quasi-one-dimensional(quasi-1D)crystalline structure.In this study,we identify the chain-like construction and anisotropic electronic states on TaNiTe_5 surface with scanning tunneling microscopy.The electron scatterings are largely suppressed even with chromium impurities deposited on the surface and magnetic field applied normal to the surface,which endows TaNiTe_5 great potential for low-dissipation spintronic applications.

文摘Quasi-one-dimensional(1D)antiferromagnets are known to display intriguing phenomena especially when there is a spin gap in their spin-excitation spectra.Here we demonstrate that a spin gap exists in the quasi-1D Heisenberg antiferromagnet CoTi2O5 with highly ordered Co2+/Ti4+occupation,in which the Co2+ions with S=3/2 form a 1D spin chain along the a-axis.CoTi2O5 undergoes an antiferromagnetic transition at TN~24 K and exhibits obvious anisotropic magnetic susceptibility even in the paramagnetic region.Although a gapless magnetic ground state is usually expected in a quasi-1D Heisenberg antiferromagnet with half-integer spins,by analyzing the specific heat,the thermal conductivity,and the spin-lattice relaxation rate(1/T1)as a function of temperature,we found that a spin gap is opened in the spin-excitation spectrum of CoTi2O5 around TN,manifested by the rapid decrease of magnetic specific heat to zero,the double-peak characteristic in thermal conductivity,and the exponential decay of 1/T1 below TN.Both the magnetic measurements and the first-principles calculations results indicate that there is spin-orbit coupling in CoTi2O5,which induces the magnetic anisotropy in CoTi2O5,and then opens the spin gap at low temperature.
文摘We investigate the metal-insulator transition in quasi-one-dimensional organic crystals of tetrathiotetracene-iodide, TTT2I3, in the 2D model. A crystal physical model is applied which takes into account two the most important hole-phonon interaction mechanisms. One is similar to that of deformation potential and the other is of polaron type. The scattering on defects is also considered and it is crucial for the explanation of the transition. The phonon polarization operator and the renormalized phonon spectrum are calculated in the random phase approximation for different temperatures applying the method of Green functions. We show that the transition is of Peierls type. The effect of lattice distortion on the dispersion of renormalized acoustic phonons is analyzed.
文摘A new complex AgCu(IO3)3 is synthesized by mild hydrothermal method and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and magnetization measurement.AgCu(IO3)3 is triclinic,space group P1,with a = 7.3081(1),b = 7.8089(1),c = 8.2447(1)A,α = 67.159(1),β = 74.982(1),γ = 80.982(1)°,and Z = 2.AgCu(IO3)3 is isostructral with Ag Pb(IO3)3.The structure of Ag Cu(IO3)3 consists of CuO6 chain columns parallel to the c axis,formed by corner-sharing Cu(1) and Cu(2) octahedra and flanked by corner-sharing IO3 groups; these CuO6 columns are cross-linked into a three-dimensional framework through I–O and Ag–O bonds.I(1),I(2) and I(3) are coordinated respectively with 3 oxygens on the same side to form trigonal pyramids confirming the presence of a stereochemically active lone pair of each I^5+ cation.In the CuO6 chain columns,Cu(1)O6 and Cu(2)O6 octahedra are tetragonally distorted with four shorter bonds in the square planes and two longer apical bonds.Cu(1)O6 octahedra were corner sharing with Cu(2)O6 octahedra with a shorter Cu(1)–O(1) bond in the square planes and a longer apical Cu(2)–O(1) bond,which forms a Cu(1)–Cu(2) magnetic chain along the c direaction.Magnetization measurement shows weak antiferromagnetic property in low temperature range.Ag Cu(IO3)3 provides a new example of a quasi-one-dimensional magnetic system.

文摘We investigate the ultrafast dynamics of the quasi-one-dimensional Kondo lattice CeCo_(2)Ga_(8) using optical pump-probe spectroscopy.Time-resolved pump-probe reflectivity measurements reveal a strong anisotropy in the photoinduced response,which is a direct consequence of the material's unique electronic structure.The temperature dependence of the relaxation dynamics provides evidence for the formation of two distinct hybridization gaps that appear at different temperatures in the heavy fermion state.A direct gap of 2dir~50 meV that persists up to T^(+)≈90 K,well above the coherence temperature T^(*)≈20 K.We attribute this higher-temperature gap to the hybridization fluctuations.An indirect gap of 2△_(ind)≈14 meV opens closer to T^(*),signifying the development of long-range coherence in the heavy fermion state.Furthermore,we find that the hybridization gap can be suppressed with increasing pump fluence,indicating a delicate interplay between photoexcitation and the coherent heavy fermion state.Our results provide insights into the interplay of Kondo physics and low dimensionality in CeCo_(2)Ga_(8),and establish ultrafast optical spectroscopy as a sensitive probe of anisotropic hybridization in heavy fermion materials.
文摘The objective of this paper is to present a fast and reliable CFD model that is able to simulate stationary and transient operations of multistage compressors and turbines. This analysis tool is based on an adapted version of the Euler equations solved by a time-marching, finite-volume method. The Euler equations have been extended by including source terms expressing the blade-flow interactions. These source terms are determined using the ve- locity triangles and a row-by-row representation of the blading at mid-span. The losses and deviations undergone by the fluid across each blade row are supplied by correlations. The resulting flow solver is a performance pre- diction tool based only on the machine geometry, offering the possibility of exploring the entire characteristic map of a multistage compressor or turbine. Its efficiency in terms of CPU time makes it possible to couple it to an optimization algorithm or to a gas turbine performance tool. Different test-cases are presented for which the calculated characteristic maps are compared to experimental ones.

文摘Quasi-one-dimensional ZrS_(3)nanoflakes attract intense interest attributed to their superior electrical and optical anisotropy,stemming from the low symmetry in the crystal structure.However,the conventional chemical vapor transport method for synthesizing bulk ZrS_(3)is limited by morphology and size controllability.It is highly desirable to propose a facile way to precisely synthesize ZrS_(3)nanoflakes.In this work,the chemical vapor deposition method is proposed as a feasible way to synthesize ZrS_(3)nanoflakes.The effects of various substrates and temperatures on ZrS_(3)synthesis have been investigated.For the as-grown ZrS_(3),good crystallinity is confirmed with X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy.The structure and interlayer coupling are investigated with Raman scattering spectroscopy.The strong in-plane anisotropy and interlayer coupling of the ZrS_(3)nanoflakes are illustrated with angle-resolved Raman spectroscopy and temperature-dependent Raman characterization,respectively.This study demonstrates a feasible way for the synthesis of transition metal trisulfides,which may shed new light on the research of other two-dimensional anisotropic transition metal materials.

文摘Here we report the discovery of the first ternary molybdenum pnictide based superconductor K2Mo3As3. Polycrystalline samples were synthesized by the conventional solid state reaction method. X-ray diffrac- tion analysis reveals a quasi-one-dimensional hexagonal crystal structure with (Mo3As3)2 linear chains separated by K^+ ions, similar as previously reported K2Cr3As3, with the space group of P-6m2 (No. 187) and the refined lattice parameters a = 10.145(5) A and c = 4.453(8) A. Electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, and heat capacity measurements exhibit bulk superconductivity with the onset Tc at 10.4 K in K2Mo3As3 which is higher than the isostructural Cr-based superconductors. Being the same group VIB transition elements and with similar structural motifs, these Cr and Mo based superconductors may share some common underlying origins for the occurrence of superconductivity and need more investigations to uncover the electron pairing within a quasi-one-dimensional chain structure.

文摘The quasi-one-dimensional nonlinear monoatomic lattice is analyzed.The kink-soliton and antikink-soliton are presented.When the interaction of the lattice is strong in the x-direction and weak in the y-direction,the two-dimensional(2D)lattice changes to a quasi-one-dimensional lattice.Taking nearest-neighbor interaction into account,the vibration equation can be transformed into the KPI,KPII and MKP equation.Considering the cubic nonlinear potential of the vibration in the lattice,the kink-soliton solution is presented.Considering the quartic nonlinear potential and the cubic interaction potential,the kink-soliton and antikink-soliton solutions are presented.

文摘Light-matter interactions in low-dimensional quantum-confined structures can dominate the optical properties of the materials and lead to optoelectronic applications.In anisotropic layered silicon diphosphide(SiP2)crystal,the embedded quasi-onedimensional(1D)phosphorus–phosphorus(P–P)chains directly result in an unconventional quasi-1D excitonic state,and a special phonon mode vibrating along the P–P chains,establishing a unique 1D quantum-confined system.Alloying SiP2 with the homologous element serves as an effective way to study the properties of these excitons and phonons associated with the quasi-1D P–P chains,as well as the strong interaction between these quasiparticles.However,the experimental observation and the related optical spectral understanding of SiP2 with isoelectronic dopants remain elusive.Herein,with the photoluminescence and Raman spectroscopy measurements,we demonstrate the redshift of the confined excitonic peak and the stiffening of the phonon vibration mode■of a series of Si(P1−xAsx)2 alloys with increasing arsenic(As)compositions.This anomalous stiffening of■is attributed to the selective substitution of As atoms for P atoms within the P–P chains,which is confirmed via our scanning transmission electron microscopy investigation.Such optical spectra evolutions with selective substitution pave a new way to understand the 1D quantum confinement in semiconductors,offering opportunities to explore quasi-1D characteristics in SiP2 and the resulting photonic device application.
