X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electronic microscopy （SEM）, and transmission electronic microscopy （TEM） methods were utilized to characterize the composition and microstructure of the treated samples. The results show that after two cryogenic treatments, the quantity of the precipitate hardening β phase increases, and the sizes of the precipitates are refined from 8-10μm to 2-4μm. This is expected to be due to the decreased solubility of aluminum in the matrix at low temperature and the significant plastic deformation owing to internal differences in thermal contraction between phases and grains. The polycrystalline matrix is also noticeably refined, with the sizes of the subsequent nanocrystalline grains in the range of 50-100 nm. High density dislocations are observed to pile up at the grain boundaries, inducing the dynamic recrystallization of the microstructure, leading to the generation of a nanocrystalline grain structure. After two deep cryogenic treatments, the tensile strength and elongation are found to be substantially increased, rising from 243 MPa and 4.4% of as-cast state to 299 MPa and 5.1%.展开更多

The different effects on combustion were distinguished by analyzing the combustion burner, the injection position of diesel oil, the front tube arrangement of Stirling heater head and the back fin. The results show that the tilted front tube arrangement of the heater head with the back fin is the best practicable technology while the distance between the diesel nozzle position and the swirler top is 0. Its total heat flux is 15.6 kW, and the average heat transfer coefficients of the front and back tubes are 127 W/(m2· K) and 192 W/(m2· K), respectively. The heat transfer is mainly through convection, and the proportion of radiative heat transfer is only 16.9%. The best combustion efficiency of the free piston Stirling engine external combustion system is 86%.展开更多

SOD has special physiological activity and is the primary substance for scavenging free radicals in living organisms.However, the expensive and complex extraction processes, low SOD yield, as well as difficult to store at room temperature have seriously hindered its application pace. Herein, the enzyme mimetic function of Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots(QDs) was discovered. The improved Marklund and McCord method both showed that Mn-doped ZnS QDs possess intrinsic SOD-like activity. The effects of temperature and pH on the mimetic enzyme activity of Mn-doped ZnS QDs have been investigated compared with SOD enzymes.The low cost and easy to synthesize white Mn-doped ZnS QDs with good biocompatibility are expected to be used as a new type of SOD nanozymes in the biology-relevant fields.展开更多

文摘In the storage ring RF system of Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility,the clock distribution and the local oscillator are two parts of the digital low level radio frequency hardware board.In this paper,we designed and produced the clock distribution and the local oscillator board using the AD9858 and AD9510 chips.The results show that the phase noise of the local oscillator signal is lower than 100dBc/Hz with 50 kHz offset.
文摘The free piston Stirling engine external combustion system was simulated to investigate the diesel-air combustion characteristics in order to demonstrate its feasibility by computational fluid dynamics(CFD). The different effects on combustion were distinguished by analyzing the combustion burner, the injection position of diesel oil, the front tube arrangement of Stirling heater head and the back fin. The results show that the tilted front tube arrangement of the heater head with the back fin is the best practicable technology while the distance between the diesel nozzle position and the swirler top is 0. Its total heat flux is 15.6 kW, and the average heat transfer coefficients of the front and back tubes are 127 W/(m2· K) and 192 W/(m2· K), respectively. The heat transfer is mainly through convection, and the proportion of radiative heat transfer is only 16.9%. The best combustion efficiency of the free piston Stirling engine external combustion system is 86%.

文摘At cryogenic temperatures,the investigations of magnetic phase transition and magnetocaloric effect in RE_(2)FeC_(4)(RE=Ho,Er,and Tm) compounds were performed.Ho_(2)FeC_(4)and Er_(2)FeC_(4)compounds undergo two magnetic phase transitions with the temperature decreasing:from paramagnetic(PM) to ferromagnetic(FM) transition at their respective Curie temperature(Tc) and from FM to antiferromagnetic(AFM) or ferrimagnetic(FIM) transition below 2 K.Tm_(2)FeC_(4)compound exhibits only a second-order PM to FM phase transition at TC=K.Large reversible MCE without hysteresis loss is observed in RE_(2)FeC_(4)(RE=Ho,Er,and Tm) compounds.Particularly,the maximum value of magnetic entropy change(-ASM)is 21.62 J/(kg K) under the magnetic field change(Δ_(μ0)H) of 0-5 T for Er_(2)FeC_(4).The Er_(2)FeC_(4)compound presenting excellent magnetocaloric performance makes it a competitive cryogenic magnetic refrigeration material.

文摘A new method of high-gravity combustion synthesis(HGCS)followed by post-treatment(PT)is reported for preparing high-performance high-entropy alloys(HEAs),Cr0.9FeNi2.5V0.2Al0.5 alloy,whereby cheap thermite powder is used as the raw material.In this process,the HEA melt and the ceramic melt are rapidly formed by a strong exothermic combustion synthesis reaction and completely separated under a high-gravity field.Then,the master alloy is obtained after cooling.Subsequently,the master alloy is sequentially subjected to conventional vacuum arc melting(VAM),homogenization treatment,cold rolling,and annealing treatment to realize a tensile strength,yield strength,and elongation of 1250 MPa,1075 MPa,and 2.9%,respectively.The present method is increasingly attractive due to its low cost of raw materials and the intermediate product obtained without high-temperature heating.Based on the calculation of phase separation kinetics in the high-temperature melt,it is expected that the final alloys with high performance can be prepared directly across master alloys with higher high-gravity coefficients.

文摘Superoxide dismutase(SOD) is an important antioxidant enzyme in the body. SOD has special physiological activity and is the primary substance for scavenging free radicals in living organisms.However, the expensive and complex extraction processes, low SOD yield, as well as difficult to store at room temperature have seriously hindered its application pace. Herein, the enzyme mimetic function of Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots(QDs) was discovered. The improved Marklund and McCord method both showed that Mn-doped ZnS QDs possess intrinsic SOD-like activity. The effects of temperature and pH on the mimetic enzyme activity of Mn-doped ZnS QDs have been investigated compared with SOD enzymes.The low cost and easy to synthesize white Mn-doped ZnS QDs with good biocompatibility are expected to be used as a new type of SOD nanozymes in the biology-relevant fields.

文摘Magnetic entropy change （△SM） and refrigerant capacity （RC） of Ce6Ni2Si3-type Gd6Co1.67Si2.5Geo.5 compounds have been investigated. The Gd6Col.67Si2.5Geo.5 undergoes a reversible second-order phase transition at the Curie temperature Tc = 296 K. The high saturation magnetization leads to a large ASM and the maximal value of △SM is found to be 5.9 J/kg. K around TC for a field change of 0-5 T. A broad distribution of the △SM peak is observed and the full width at half maximum of the △SM peak is about 101 K under a magnetic field of 5 T. The large RC is found around TC and its value is 424 J/kg.

文摘Structural properties of the organic-inorganic hybrid(C_(2)H_(5)NH_(3))_(2)CuCl_(4) have been investigated by means of x-ray powder diffraction and Rietveld analysis. A structural phase transition from Pbca to Aba2 occurs at T_(4)= 240 K, which results in a paraelectric–ferroelectric phase transition. The release of the Jahn–Teller distortion with increasing temperature toward T_(4) is revealed by the structural analysis.

文摘Tumor cells usually show abnormally high glycolysis rate to maintain the dynamic balance of energy.The growth of tumor cells can be affected by inhibiting the activity of pyruvate kinase(especially M2-type isozyme,PKM2),the rate limiting enzyme of glycolysis.This is helpful to the treatment of tumor.Herein,metal organic frameworks(MOFs) were found to inhibit the activity of PKM2.Nanoscale ZIF-8 was synthesized by standing and ultrasonic method,respectively.The ZIF-8 has the performance of inhibiting PKM2.Further research showed that the inhibition ability was attributed to zinc ion in ZIF-8.Interestingly,the IC_(50) of ZIF-8 on PKM2 was one percent of that of zinc ion.This novel enzyme inhibitor is expected to be used in cancer therapy.

文摘In this work,polymethacrylic acid(PMAA)-templated silver nanoclusters(Ag NCs)were developed as the fluorescent probe for the efficient and sensitive detection of adenosine triphosphate(ATP)in a wide range of pH values.The fluorescence intensity of the Ag NCs could keep stable with pH values ranging from2.5 to 9.3.The detection of ATP was based on the quenching of the fluorescent Ag NCs in the presence of ATP.The fluorescence quenching of the Ag NCs with increasing ATP concentration was studied at pH 2.5,4.5,7.0 and 8.5 which involved a wide pH environment in body fluids.The limit of detection(LOD)for ATP was as low as 0.1 mmol/L in an acidic environment with pH of 2.5 and all the linear correlation coefficients were satisfactory under wide-span pH values from 2.5 to 8.5.In addition,the sensitive determination of ATP was also achieved by adding copper ions(Cu^2+).The high selectivity and rapid detection process proved that the fluorescent probe had great potential to detect ATP in biological samples under different pH conditions.

文摘Giant reversible magnetocaloric effects and magnetic properties in Euo.9Ro.lTiO3 （R = La, Ce） are investigated. The antiferromagnetic ordering of pure EuTiO3 can significantly change to be ferromagnetic as substitution of La （x = 0.1） and Ce （x = 0.1） ions for Eu2＋ ions. The values of -ASM and RC are evaluated to be 10.8 J/（kg.K） and 51.8 J/kg for Euo.gCeo.lTiO3 and 11 J/（kg.K） and 39.3 J/kg for Euo.9Lao.lTiO3 at a magnetic field change of I0 kOe, respectively. The large low-field enhancements of --ASM and RC can be attributed to magnetic phase transition. The giant reversible MCE and large RC suggest that Euo.9Ro.ITiO3 （R = La, Ce） compounds could be promising materials in low temperature and low magnetic field refrigerants.
