In order to investigate temperature-tunable lasing in negative dielectric chiral nematic liquid crystal, we measure the transmission and lasing spectrum of this sample. The photonic band gap （PBG） is observed to red shift with its width reducing from 71.2 nm to 40.2 nm, and its short-wavelength band edge moves 55.3 nm while the long-wavelength band edge only moves 24.9 nm. The wavelength of output laser is found to red shift from 614.4 nm at 20 ~C to 662.8 nm at 67 ~C, which is very different from the previous experimental phenomena. The refractive indices, parallel and perpendicular to the director in chiral nematic liquid crystal have different dependencies on temperature. The experiment shows that the pitch of this chiral nematic liquid crystal increases with the increase of temperature. The decrease in the PBG width, different shifts of band edges, and the red shift of laser wavelength are the results of refractive indices change and pitch thermal elongation.展开更多

Here, we present the mechanism of molecular alignment and deformation. The CARS spectra and its FFT spectra of liquid NM show that the NO2 torsional mode couples with the CN symmetric stretching mode and that the NO2 group undergoes ultrafast structural deformation with a relaxation time of 195 fs. The frequency of the NO2 torsional mode in liquid NM（50.8±0.3 cm^-1） at room temperature is found. Our results prove the structural deformation of two groups in liquid NM molecule occur simultaneously in the intense laser field.展开更多

Successful coordination between the ligands and central rare earth ions was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FT-IR） spectra, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance （1H NMR） spectra, and UV spectra, and the synthesized complex is inferred to be eight-coordinate structure. Solution of the complex dis- solved in DMSO-d6 was prepared and then its fluorescence spectrum, UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectrum, and fluorescence decay curve were tested. The fluorescent lifetime is about 7 txs. Based on the above experimental research, Judd-Ofelt analysis was carried out, and the results indi- cate that appropriate coordination environment around Nd3＋ in this solution results in a high fluorescent quantum efficiency 2 % and a large stimulated emission cross-section about 3.2 × 10^-20 cm^2 at 1,064 nm.展开更多

Zn@ZnO core–shell（CS） nanocomposites, calcined ZnO, and Ag-doped ZnO（ZnO/Ag） nanostructures were prepared using pulsed laser ablation in liquid, calcination, and photodeposition methods, respectively, without using surfactants or catalysts. The as-prepared catalysts were characterized by using X-ray diffraction（XRD）, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, ultraviolet–visible（UV–vis） spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. In addition, elemental analysis was performed by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The obtained XRD and morphology results indicated good dispersion of Zn and Ag NPs on the surface of the ZnO nanostructures. Investigation of the photocatalytic degradation of lindane under UV–vis irradiation showed that Zn@ZnO CS nanocomposites exhibit higher photocatalytic activity than the other prepared samples. The maximum degradation rate of lindane was 99.5% in 40 min using Zn@ZnO CS nanocomposites. The radical trapping experiments verified that the hydroxyl radical（·OH） was the main reactive species for the degradation of lindane.展开更多

文摘One promising way to tune the physicochemical properties of materials and optimize their performance in various potential applications is to engineer material structures at the atomic level.As is well known,the performance of Pd-based catalysts has long been constrained by surface contamination and their single structure.Here,we employed an unadulterated top-down synthesis method,known as laser fragmentation in liquid(LFL),to modify pristine Pd PS crystals and obtained a kind of metastable palladium-sulfur compound nanoparticles(LFL-Pd S NPs)as a highly efficient electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction(HER).Laser fragmentation of the layered Pd PS crystal led to a structural reorganization at the atomic level and resulted in the formation of uniform metastable LFL-Pd S NPs.Noteworthy,the LFL-Pd S NPs show excellent electrocatalytic HER performance and stability in acidic media,with an overpotential of-66 m V at 10 m A·cm^(-2),the Tafel slope of 42 m V·dec^(-1).The combined catalytic performances of our LFL-Pd S NPs are comparable to the Pt/C catalyst for HER.This work provides a top-down synthesis strategy as a promising approach to design highly active metastable metal composite electrocatalysts for sustainable energy applications.

文摘Since the discovery of transition metal dichalcogenide(TMDC)nanoparticles(NPs)with the onion-like structure,many efforts have been made to develop their fabrication methods.Laser fabrication(LF)is one of the most promising methods to prepare onion-structured TMDC(or OS-TMDC)NPs due to its green,flexible,and scalable syntheses.In this mini-review article,we systematically introduce various laser-induced OS-TMDC(especially the OS-MoS_(2))NPs,their formation mechanism,properties,and applications.The preparation routes mainly include laser ablation in liquids and atmospheres,and laser irradiation in liquids.The various formation mechanisms are then introduced based on the different preparation routes,to describe the formations of the corresponding OS-NPs.Finally,some interesting properties and novel applications of these NPs are briefly demonstrated,and a short outlook is also given.This review could help to understand the progress of the laser-induced OS-TMDC NPs and their applications.
文摘Multifunctional luminescent materials are attracting attention nowadays.In this work,monoclinic Gd_(2)O_(3):Er^(3+)nanoparticles,which possess up-conversion luminescence and down-conversion luminescence properties,were successfully synthesized by laser ablation in liquid(LAL)technique.Up-conversion luminescence and down-conversion luminescence of monoclinic Gd_(2)O_(3):Er^(3+)nanoparticles were got under the excitation of 980 nm and 379 nm,respectively.In addition,tunable luminescence was got.Furthermore,the cytotoxicity of the nanoparticles is low and the fluorescence of the nanoparticles in cell is also strong enough.The results indicate that the Gd_(2)O_(3):Er^(3+)nanoparticles synthesized by LAL technique are promising candidates for bio-imaging or other fields that require controllable fluorescence.

文摘This work demonstrates the realization of a lasing in scattering media,which contains dispersive solution of Zn O nanoparticles（NPs） and laser dye 4-dicyanomethylene-2-methyle-6-（p-dimethylaminostyryl）-4H-pyran（DCM） in negative liquid crystals（LCs） that was injected into a cell.The lasing intensity of the dye-doped negative LC laser can be tuned from low to high if the NPs concentration is increased.The tunability of the laser is attributable to the clusters-sensitive feature in effective refractive index of the negative LCs.Such a tunable negative liquid crystal laser can be used in the fabrication of new optical sources,optical communication,and liquid crystal laser displays.

文摘The structural deformation of NO2 group induced by an intense femtosecond laser field of liquid nitromethane（NM）molecule is detected by time-and frequency-resolved coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy（CARS） technique with the intense pump laser. Here, we present the mechanism of molecular alignment and deformation. The CARS spectra and its FFT spectra of liquid NM show that the NO2 torsional mode couples with the CN symmetric stretching mode and that the NO2 group undergoes ultrafast structural deformation with a relaxation time of 195 fs. The frequency of the NO2 torsional mode in liquid NM（50.8±0.3 cm^-1） at room temperature is found. Our results prove the structural deformation of two groups in liquid NM molecule occur simultaneously in the intense laser field.

文摘A new Nd3＋-doped organic complex featuring two different perfluorinated carboxylic acids as the first ligand and pyridine derivative 2-amino-3-chloro-5-（tri- fluoromethyl）pyridine as the second ligand was designed and synthesized. Successful coordination between the ligands and central rare earth ions was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FT-IR） spectra, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance （1H NMR） spectra, and UV spectra, and the synthesized complex is inferred to be eight-coordinate structure. Solution of the complex dis- solved in DMSO-d6 was prepared and then its fluorescence spectrum, UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectrum, and fluorescence decay curve were tested. The fluorescent lifetime is about 7 txs. Based on the above experimental research, Judd-Ofelt analysis was carried out, and the results indi- cate that appropriate coordination environment around Nd3＋ in this solution results in a high fluorescent quantum efficiency 2 % and a large stimulated emission cross-section about 3.2 × 10^-20 cm^2 at 1,064 nm.

文摘To achieve enhanced photocatalytic activity for the degradation of lindane, we prepared metal–semiconductor composite nanoparticles（NPs）. Zn@ZnO core–shell（CS） nanocomposites, calcined ZnO, and Ag-doped ZnO（ZnO/Ag） nanostructures were prepared using pulsed laser ablation in liquid, calcination, and photodeposition methods, respectively, without using surfactants or catalysts. The as-prepared catalysts were characterized by using X-ray diffraction（XRD）, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, ultraviolet–visible（UV–vis） spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. In addition, elemental analysis was performed by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The obtained XRD and morphology results indicated good dispersion of Zn and Ag NPs on the surface of the ZnO nanostructures. Investigation of the photocatalytic degradation of lindane under UV–vis irradiation showed that Zn@ZnO CS nanocomposites exhibit higher photocatalytic activity than the other prepared samples. The maximum degradation rate of lindane was 99.5% in 40 min using Zn@ZnO CS nanocomposites. The radical trapping experiments verified that the hydroxyl radical（·OH） was the main reactive species for the degradation of lindane.

文摘The electrocatalytic oxidation of biomass-derived furfural(FF)feedstocks into 2-furoic acid(FA)holds immense industrial potential in optics,cosmetics,polymers,and food.Herein,we fabricated Co O/Ni O/nickel foam(NF)and Cu_(2)O/Ni O/NF electrodes via in situ pulsed laser irradiation in liquids(PLIL)for the bifunctional electrocatalysis of oxygen evolution reaction(OER)and furfural oxidation reaction(FOR),respectively.Simultaneous oxidation of NF surface to NiO and deposition of CoO and/or Cu_(2)O on NF during PLIL offer distinct advantages for enhancing both the OER and FOR.CoO/NiO/NF electrocatalyst provides a consistently low overpotential of~359 m V(OER)at 10 m A/cm^(2),achieving the maximum FA yield(~16.37 m M)with 61.5%selectivity,79.5%carbon balance,and a remarkable Faradaic efficiency of~90.1%during 2 h of FOR at 1.43 V(vs.reversible hydrogen electrode).Mechanistic pathway via in situ electrochemical-Raman spectroscopy on CoO/NiO/NF reveals the involvement of phase transition intermediates(NiOOH and CoOOH)as surface-active centers during electrochemical oxidation.The carbonyl carbon in FF is attacked by hydroxyl groups to form unstable hydrates that subsequently undergo further oxidation to yield FA products.This method holds promise for large-scale applications,enabling simultaneous production of renewable building materials and fuel.

文摘Here,furfural oxidation was performed to replace the kinetically sluggish O_(2)evolution reaction(OER).Pt-Co_(3)O_(4)nanospheres were developed via pulsed laser ablation in liquid(PLAL)in a single step for the paired electrocatalysis of an H_(2)evolution reaction(HER)and furfural oxidation reaction(FOR).The FOR afforded a high furfural conversion(44.2%)with a major product of 2-furoic acid after a 2-h electrolysis at 1.55 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode in a 1.0-M KOH/50-mM furfural electrolyte.The Pt-Co_(3)O_(4)electrode exhibited a small overpotential of 290 mV at 10 mA cm^(-2).As an anode and cathode in an electrolyzer system,the Pt-Co_(3)O_(4)electrocatalyst required only a small applied cell voltage of~1.83 V to deliver 10 mA cm^(-2),compared with that of the pure water electrolyzer(OER||HER,~1.99 V).This study simultaneously realized the integrated production of energy-saving H_(2)fuel at the cathode and 2-furoic acid at the anode.

文摘Multi-conjugation adaptive optics（MCAOs） have been investigated and used in the large aperture optical telescopes for high-resolution imaging with large field of view（FOV）.The atmospheric tomographic phase reconstruction and projection of three-dimensional turbulence volume onto wavefront correctors,such as deformable mirrors（DMs） or liquid crystal wavefront correctors（LCWCs）,is a very important step in the data processing of an MCAO＇s controller.In this paper,a method according to the wavefront reconstruction performance of MCAO is presented to evaluate the optimized configuration of multi laser guide stars（LGSs） and the reasonable conjugation heights of LCWCs.Analytical formulations are derived for the different configurations and are used to generate optimized parameters for MCAO.Several examples are given to demonstrate our LGSs configuration optimization method.Compared with traditional methods,our method has minimum wavefront tomographic error,which will be helpful to get higher imaging resolution at large FOV in MCAO.

文摘Non-stoichiometric copper selenide(Cu_(2-x)Se,x=0.18~0.25)nanomaterials have attracted extensive attentions due to their excellent thermoelectric,optoelectronic and photocatalytic performances.However,efficient production of Cu_(2-x)Se nanoparticles(NPs)through a green and convenient way is still hindered by the inevitable non-environmentally friendly operations in common chemical synthesis.Herein,we initially reveal the coexistence of seleninic acid content and elemental selenium(Se)NPs in pulsed laser-generated Se colloidal solution.Consequently,we put forward firstly a closedcycle reaction mode for totally green production of Cu_(1.8)Se NPs to exclude traditional requirements of high temperature and toxic precursors by using Se colloidal solution.In such closed-cycle reaction,seleninic acid works as the initiator to oxidize copper sheet to release cuprous ions which can catalyze the disproportion of Se NPs to form Se O_(3)^(2-)and Se^(2-)ions and further produce Cu_(2-x)Se NPs,and the by-product SeO_(3)^(2-)ions promote subsequent formation of cuprous from the excessive Cu sheet.In experiments,the adequate copper(Cu)sheet was simply dipped into such Se colloidal solution at 70℃,and then the stream of Cu_(1.8)SeNPs could be produced until the exhaustion of selenium source.The conversion rate of Se element reaches to more than 75%when the size of Se NPs in weakly acidic colloidal solution is limited between 1 nm and 50 nm.The laser irradiation duration shows negative correlation with the size of Se NPs and unobvious impact to the p H of the solution which both are essential to the high yield of Cu_(1.8)SeNPs.Before Cu sheet is exhausted,Se colloidal solution can be successively added without influences to the product quality and the Se conversion rate.Such green methodology positively showcases a brand-new and potential strategy for mass production of Cu_(2-x)Se nanomaterials.

文摘Herein,we propose a simple and rapid approach for synthesizing a CuS/Ru composite that serves as a bifunctional electrocatalyst to promote hydrogen production and concurrently convert sulfion into a value-added sulfur product.This composite comprises Ru nanoclusters supported on the CuS nanostructure,achieved through simple pulsed laser irradiation in liquid approach.The optimized CuS/Ru-30 electrocatalyst demonstrates remarkable bifunctional electrocatalytic activity,exhibiting a negligible working potential of 0.28 V(vs.RHE)for the anodic sulfion oxidation reaction(SOR)and a minimal overpotential of 182 m V for cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)to achieve 10 mA cm^(-2)of current density.Moreover,the Cu S/Ru-30 electrocatalyst shows exceptional selectivity for converting sulfion into valuable sulfur during anodic oxidation reactions.Remarkably,in a two-electrode electrolyzer system utilizing Cu S/Ru-30 as both the anode and cathode,the SOR+HER coupled water electrolysis system demands only 0.52 V to reach 10 mA cm^(-2),which is considerably lesser compared to the OER+HER coupled water electrolysis(1.85 V).The experimental results and density function theory(DFT)calculations reveal that the strong electron interaction between CuS and Ru nanoclusters generates a built-in electric field,greatly enhancing electron transfer efficiency.This significantly boosts the HER performance and facilitates the adsorption and production of sulfur intermediates.This study presents a rapid and simple strategy for synthesizing a dual-functional catalyst suitable for low-voltage hydrogen generation while facilitating the recovery of valuable sulfur sources.

文摘Near-IR(wavelength≈1μm)laser ablation of bulk,chemically-inert gold in water was compared for different laser pulse width in broad the range of 300 fs–100 ns,comparing a number of key ablation characteristics:mass loss,singleshot crater volume and extinction coefficient of the generated colloidal solutions taken in the spectral ranges of interband transitions and localized plasmon resonance.Comparing to related air-based ablation results,at the given fluences laser ablation in the liquid resulted in the maximum ablation yield per unit energy and maximum NP yield per pulse and per unit energy for the picosecond lasers,occurring at subcritical peak pulse powers for laser self-focusing.The self-focusing effect was demonstrated to yield in incomplete,effectively weaker focusing in the water filaments of ultrashort laser pulses with supercritical peak powers,comparing to linear(geometrical)focusing at sub-critical peak powers.At the other,nanosecondpulse extreme the high ablation yield per pulse,but low ablation yield per unit energy and low NP yield per pulse and per unit energy were related to strong ablation plasma screening,providing mass removal according to the well-established scaling relationships for plasma.Illustrative comparison of the ablation and nanoparticle generation efficiency versus the broad fs–ns laser pulse width range was enabled in terms of productivity,economicity,and ergonomicity,using the proposed universal quantitative criteria.

文摘Here,CuO nanorods fabricated via pulsed laser ablation in liquids were decorated with Ir,Pd,and Ru NPs(loading~7 wt%) through pulsed laser irradiation in the liquids process.The resulting NPs-decorated CuO nanorods were characterized spectroscopically and employed as multifunctional electrocatalysts in OER,HER,and the furfural oxidation reactions(FOR).Ir-CuO nanorods afford the lowest overpotential of~345 mV(HER) and 414 mV(OER) at 10 mA cm^(-2),provide the highest 2-furoic acid yield(~10.85 mM) with 64.9% selectivity,and the best Faradaic efficiency~72.7% in 2 h of FOR at 1.58 V(vs.RHE).In situ electrochemical-Raman analysis of the Ir-CuO detects the formation of the crucial intermediates,such as Cu(Ⅲ)-oxide,Cu(OH)_(2),and Ir_x(OH)_y,on the electrode-electrolyte surface,which act as a promoter for HER and OER.The Ir-CuO ‖ Ir-CuO in a coupled HER and FOR-electrolyzer operates at~200 mV lower voltage,compared with the conventional electrolyzer and embodies the dual advantage of energy-saving H_(2) and 2-furoic acid production.

文摘Adaptive optics（AO） systems are widespread and considered as an essential part of any large aperture telescope for obtaining a high resolution imaging at present.To enlarge the imaging field of view（FOV）,multi-laser guide stars（LGSs） are currently being investigated and used for the large aperture optical telescopes.LGS measurement is necessary and pivotal to obtain the cumulative phase distortion along a target in the multi-LGSs AO system.We propose a high precision phase reconstruction algorithm to estimate the phase for a target with an uncertain turbulence profile based on the interpolation.By comparing with the conventional average method,the proposed method reduces the root mean square（RMS） error from 130 nm to 85 nm with a 30% reduction for narrow FOV.We confirm that such phase reconstruction algorithm is validated for both narrow field AO and wide field AO.
