Pump-probe measurement results show that there are two components for the excited carriers relaxation, the fast one with a time constant of several ps arises from the Auger-type recombination, which shows almost particle sizeindependence. The slow relaxation component with a time constant of several decades of ns can be clearly determined with ps TRPL spectroscopy in which the slow relaxation process shows strong particle size-dependence. The decay time constants increase from 21 to 34 ns with the decrease of particle size from 3.2 to 2.1 nm. The room-temperature decay lifetime is due to the thermal mixing of bright and dark excitons, and the size-dependence of slow relaxation process can be explained very well in terms of simple three-level model.展开更多

Energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry （EDS） was used to determine the localization of cadmium （Cd） in leaves of the Zn/Cd hyperaccumulator Picris divaricata which had a shoot Cd concentration of 565 mg kg-1 after 2 weeks of growth in solution culture supplying 10μ tmol L^-1 CdCl2. The results indicated that Cd was distributed mainly in the trichomes, upper and lower epidermis and bundle sheath cells, with a relatively low level of Cd in mesophyll cells. Mesophyll protoplasts isolated from leaves remained viable after 24 h exposure to CdCl2 at a concentration up to 1 mmol L^-1, indicating their high tolerance to Cd. The intracellular Cd was visualized by staining with Leadmium Green dye, a cellular permeable Cd fluorescence probe. The results showed that the majority of protoplasts （〉 82%） did not accumulate Cd, with only a minority （〈 18%） showing Cd accumulation. In the Cd-accumulating protoplasts, Cd accumulation was depressed by the addition of Fe^2＋, Mn^2＋ and the metabolic inhibitor carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone （CCCP）, but not by Ca^2＋ or Zn^2＋. Furthermore, the entire process of Cd uptake from external solution into the cytoplasm and subsequent sequestration into vacuoles was successfully recorded by confocal images. These results suggested that reduced cellular Cd accumulation and efficient Cd vacuolar sequestration in mesophyll cells might be responsible for cellular Cd tolerance and distribution in the leaves of P. divaricata.展开更多

Methods A duplex reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR） method was newly developed. Results Using duplex RT-PCR method for the hsp70 gene, viable （oo）cyst concentrations of 10^1 and l0^3 （oo）cysts/100 I.tL could be detected for C. parvum and G duodenalis, respectively. However, after heat-shock stimulation the expression of hsp70 mRNAs was detectable at 10^0 and 10^1 （oo）cysts/100 μL concentrations of C. parvum and G. duodenalis, respectively. Thus, the detection sensitivity was significantly increased when the viable （oo）cysts were exposed to heat shock. Conclusion This study describes a new duplex RT-PCR method for hsp70 gene to detect the viable （oo）cysts of the C. parvum and G duodenalis with less time consumed and at a lower cost. This newly developed duplex RT-PCR method may be used to detect these parasites not only in aquatic environments but also in clinical samples.展开更多

Methods Integrated cell culture（ICC）multiplex reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR） was simultaneously designed to detect coxsackieviruses （CV）, polioviruses （PV）, and reoviruses （RV）. ICC-multiplex RT-PCR and phylogenetic analysis were conducted using 21 total culturable virus assay （TCVA）-positive sample-inoculated cell cultures. Results CV and RV were detected in 9 samples each, and 3 samples were positive for both CV and RV. PV was not detected in any sample. Molecular phylogenetic analysis of the VP1 gene sequences revealed that CV types B2 and B4 predominated in Korean surface water, and the nucleotide sequences of CV type B2 were clustered with those of CVs isolated from China and Japan. The results suggested that the evolution of these viruses occurred in a region-specific manner. Conclusion CV and RV are detectable in Korean surface water, with a predominance of CV type B2, and the evolution of CV type B2 occur in a region-specific manner.展开更多

A fine and uniform grain with 30 nm in average size was achieved for the ribbons annealed at 710 ℃ for 4 min, which enhanced the interaction coupling between grains and improved the magnetic properties. The results of three-dimensional atom probe (3DAP) revealed that V-enriched intergranular phase existed at the grain boundaries, suppressing the grain growth during crystallization process. The remanence and coercivity for annealed ribbons reached to 80 emu·g-1 and 567 kA·m-1, respectively.展开更多

For a linearly polarized femtosecond laser, the periodic nanograting structure on the ablation crater surface was promoted. The period of self-organization structures is about 180 nm. The grating orientation is adjusted by the laser polarization direction. A long range Bragglike grating is formed by moving the sample at a speed of 10μm/s. For a circularly polarized laser beam, uniform spherical nanoparticles were formed as a result of Coulomb explosion during the interaction of near-infrared laser with ZnO crystal.展开更多

A simple model was given to explain soft X-ray conversion efficiency. In this model, because of the heat conduction from the laser-heated spot, the conversion was very small at lower irradiance limit, while at higher limit it was bounded by the energy lost in blow off plasma. Consequently, at the laser intensity around 2×10^14 W/cm^2 , the X-ray conversion efficiency reaches a maximum.展开更多

Molecular phylogenetic analysis of the VP1 gene sequences revealed that CV types B2 and B4 predominated in Korean surface water, and the nucleotide sequences of CV type B2 were clustered with those of CVs isolated from China and Japan. The results suggested that the evolution of these viruses occurred in a region-specific manner. Conclusion CV and RV are detectable in Korean surface water, with a predominance of CV type B2, and the evolution of CV type B2 occur in a region-specific manner.

文摘Alloy 690TT tube samples with different scratch depths were repaired by grinding treatments using abra-sive papers of two different particle sizes.The microstructure and stress corrosion cracking(SCC)behavior were studied in detail.During grinding,the plastic accumulation zone vulnerable to SCC was removed.Meanwhile,some residual slip steps remained in the scratched area.Corrosion tests lasting 1000,2000,3000,and 4000 h show that the sensitivity and risk of SCC in the scratched area are decreased by grind-ing.Treatment using abrasive particles of a smaller size is more effective.Nevertheless,deep scratches remained hazardous even after the grinding.

文摘Microstructure and magnetic properties of Nd8.5Fe77.1B6.4Co4Zr3Nb0.5V0.5 nanocomposite ribbons were investigated. A fine and uniform grain with 30 nm in average size was achieved for the ribbons annealed at 710 ℃ for 4 min, which enhanced the interaction coupling between grains and improved the magnetic properties. The results of three-dimensional atom probe (3DAP) revealed that V-enriched intergranular phase existed at the grain boundaries, suppressing the grain growth during crystallization process. The remanence and coercivity for annealed ribbons reached to 80 emu·g-1 and 567 kA·m-1, respectively.

文摘The damage on the atomic bonding and electronic state in a SiO_x（1.4-2.3 nm）/c-Si（150 μm） interface has been investigated.This occurred in the process of depositing indium tin oxide（ITO） film onto the silicon substrate by magnetron sputtering.We observe that this damage is caused by energetic particles produced in the plasma（atoms,ions,and UV light）.The passivation quality and the variation on interface states of the SiO_x/c-Si system were mainly studied by using effective minority carrier lifetime（τ_（eff）） measurement as a potential evaluation.The results showed that the samples＇ τ_（eff）was reduced by more than 90%after ITO formation,declined from 107 μs to 5 μs.Following vacuum annealing at 200 ℃,the τ_（eff） can be restored to 30 μs.The components of Si to O bonding states at the SiO_x/c-Si interface were analyzed by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy（XPS） coupled with depth profiling.The amorphous phase of the SiO_x layer and the ＂atomistic interleaving structure＂ at the SiO_x/c-Si interface was observed by a transmission electron microscope（TEM）.The chemical configuration of the Si-O fraction within the intermediate region is the main reason for inducing the variation of Si dangling bonds（or interface states） and effective minority carrier lifetime.After an appropriate annealing,the reduction of the Si dangling bonds between SiO_x and near the c-Si surface is helpful to improve the passivation effect.

文摘We report the synthesis and characterization of a Si-based ternary semiconductor Mg_(3)Si_(2)Te_(6),which exhibits a quasitwo-dimensional structure,where the trigonal Mg_(3)Si_(2)Te_(6)layers are separated by Mg ions.Ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations were performed to investigate the electronic structure.The experimentally determined direct band gap is 1.39 eV,consistent with the value of the density function theory calculations.Our results reveal that Mg_(3)Si_(2)Te_(6)is a direct gap semiconductor,which is a potential candidate for near-infrared optoelectronic devices.

文摘As a representative of non-evaporative getter,Zr-V-Fe has gained widespread attention due to its advantages including low activation temperatures and rapid hydrogen absorption rates.In this study,we investigated the impact of La and Ce doping on the thermodynamic,kinetic,and activation properties of Zr_(7)V_(5)Fe alloy.X-ray diffraction analysis shows that rare earth doping causes a decrease in the cell volume of both the ZrV_(2) andα-Zr phases of Zr_(7)V_(5)Fe alloy,which results in an increase in the plateau pressure of the alloys.The kinetic curves illustrate that rare earth doping leads to a coarseα-Zr phases and a larger particle size after activation,resulting in a decrease in the hydrogen absorption kinetic properties.As for the activation process,the rare earth doped alloys exhibit excellent activation with shorter incubation periods.X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy investigations reveal that Zr and V are initially in a highly oxidized state.As the heating temperature increases,they undergo a transition from oxidation state to metal state.The content of metal Zr in rare earth doped alloys is higher than that in undoped alloys at 250℃,primarily due to rare earth elements'affinity for oxygen.

文摘This paper reports self-organized nanostructures observed on the surface of ZnO crystal after irradiation by a focused beam of a femtosecond Ti：sapphire laser with a repetition rate of 250kHz. For a linearly polarized femtosecond laser, the periodic nanograting structure on the ablation crater surface was promoted. The period of self-organization structures is about 180 nm. The grating orientation is adjusted by the laser polarization direction. A long range Bragglike grating is formed by moving the sample at a speed of 10μm/s. For a circularly polarized laser beam, uniform spherical nanoparticles were formed as a result of Coulomb explosion during the interaction of near-infrared laser with ZnO crystal.

文摘Conversion efficiency of soft X-ray from 0.35μm pulse laser-irradiated aluminium planar target at laser intensities 10^13- 10^15 W/cm^2 on the Xingguang-Ⅱ facility （laser energy 5 - 90 J, focal spot - Φ 200μm full width of half maximun （FWHM） 400 - 800 ps） was measured. A simple model was given to explain soft X-ray conversion efficiency. In this model, because of the heat conduction from the laser-heated spot, the conversion was very small at lower irradiance limit, while at higher limit it was bounded by the energy lost in blow off plasma. Consequently, at the laser intensity around 2×10^14 W/cm^2 , the X-ray conversion efficiency reaches a maximum.
