文摘To investigate the nucleation behavior during the single-phased metallic solidification process,the commercial ultrapure ferritic stainless steels with no(Initial steel)and various melt treatments(R1,MR1,Y2,MY1,and M1 steels)were used to carry out the differential scanning colorimetry(DSC)and high-temperature confocal laser scanning microscope(HT-CLSM)experiments.Based on the results of DSC experiments,the equilibrium solidification process as well as the relationship among the critical undercooling degree(△T_(c)^(DSC)),latent heat of fusion/crystallization(△H_(f)/△H_(c)),equiaxed grain ratio(ER),and average grain size(△_(ave)^(ingot))was revealed.ER is increased with the decreasing△T_(c)^(DSC)and increasing△H_(f)/△H_(c);however,△_(ave)^(ingot)is decreased with them.Referring to the results of HT-CLSM experiments,the average sizes of micro-/macrostructures(d_(ave)/D_(ave)/)are decreased with the increasing cooling rate,as well as the difference between and apparent critical undercooling degree(△T_(c)^(CLSM))was revealed.The heterogeneous nucleation of the crystal nuclei occurs only if△T_(c)^(CLSM)>△T_(c)^(DSC).Combining with the interfacial wetting-lattice mismatch heterogeneous nucleation model,the dynamic mechanism of the metallic solidification was revealed.The as-cast grains of the melt-treated samples were obviously refined,owing to the much higher actual heterogeneous nucleation rates(I_(heter.,i))obtained through melt treatments,and the heterogeneous nucleation rates(I_(heter.,ij))for all samples are increased with the cooling rates,firmly confirming that the as-cast grains of each sample could be refined by the increasing cooling rates.

文摘We have constructed the robust and highfield-stability scanning tunneling microscopy(STM)system which is equipped with a 12 Tsuperconductor magnet and the He-3 cryostat,obtaining the high-quality data of graphite which can be clearly characterized up to the 12-T high magnetic field and bulk 2H-NbSe2 whose vortex structure and surface defects can be clearly visualized by the scanning and dI/dV mapping.The pivotal factor of our superior data stems from the sapphire frame and its unique structure,which ensure an exceptional performance for the noise,which has the current spectral density low to 2×10^(-13)A√Hz at the low frequency with the cut-off frequency of 250 Hz and the engaging status,of vibration,promising to the robust platform for the investigation of the surface of materials.The low drifting rate from the image of graphite is v_(x)=-8:79×10^(-7)nm/s and v_(y)=-3.26×10^(-6)nm/s at 12 T and 0.3 K.Besides,equipped with the high-capacity He-3 cryostat(with 15 normal temperature and pressure liter He-3 gas),the system,which has the base temperature for 0.28 K,can operate at the low temperature for more than 72 h,ensuring the enduring research at the sub-Kelvin temperature for the dI/dV mapping and large-scale scanning.When the magnetic field is applied up to 12 T,the STM system also obtains the excellent-clarity and undistorted images of graphite,which proves the outstanding performance of the system at the high-field researches.

文摘AIM:To evaluate retinal hemoglobin oxygen saturation in myopic eyes by scanning laser ophthalmoscope(SLO)and to assess its correlations with different severity of myopia.METHODS:Sixty-one eyes from 61 patients were included and subdivided into three groups according to their refractive errors:high myopia group[20 eyes,spherical equivalent(SE)≤-6 D];low and moderate myopia(22 eyes,-6.0<SE≤-0.5 D);normal(19 eyes,-0.5<SE<+0.5 D).All subjects underwent SLO imaging with dual lasers(532 nm and 633 nm).The oxygen saturations of hemoglobin in arteries(SO_(2)A)and veins(SO_(2)V),and their differences(SO_(2)AV)were estimated from the optical densities of the vessels on the images at the two wavelengths.Pearson’s or Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient were calculated to assess the correlation between retinal hemoglobin oxygen saturation and refractive error/axial length(AL).RESULTS:For the retinal oxygen saturation,the SO_(2)V in high myopia group(73.21%±21.42%)was significantly higher than that in normal group(55.81%±21.69%)and low and moderate myopia group(56.88%±13.83%,P<0.05).The SE was significantly correlated with SO_(2)A(r=-0.30)and SO_(2)V(r=-0.36;P<0.05),and AL was also significantly correlated with SO_(2)A(r=0.27)and SO_(2)V(r=0.30;P<0.05).No significant correlations were found between SO_(2)AV and SE and AL(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:SO_(2)A and SO_(2)V increased in more myopic eye based on SLO measurements.Further studies are warranted to investigate the changes of retinal hemoglobin oxygen saturation in myopia with different methods.

文摘The assembly behaviors of two low-symmetric carboxylic acid molecules(50-(6-carboxynaphthalen-2-yl)-[1,10:30,100-triphenyl]-3,400,5-tricarboxylic acid(CTTA)and 30,50-bis(6-carboxynaphthalen-2-yl)-[1,10-biphenyl]-3,5-dicarboxylic acid(BCBDA))containing naphthalene rings on graphite surfaces have been investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy(STM).The transformation of nanostructures induced by the second components(EDA and PEBP-C4)have been also examined.Both CTTA and BCBDA molecules self-assemble at the 1-heptanoic acid(HA)/HOPG interface,forming porous network structures.The dimer represents the most elementary building unit due to the formation of double hydrogen bonds.Moreover,the flipping of naphthalene ring results in the isomerization of BCBDA molecule.The introduction of carboxylic acid derivative EDA disrupts the dimer,which subsequently undergoes a structural conformation to form a novel porous structure.Furthermore,upon the addition of pyridine derivative PEBP-C4,N–H⋯O hydrogen bonds are the dominant forces driving the three coassembled structures.We have also conducted density functional theory(DFT)calculations to determine the molecular conformation and analyze the mechanisms underlying the formation of nanostructures.
