So doping Mn 2O 3 in KLN crystal to grow Mn∶KLN crystal can reduce the crack of the crystal.展开更多

The changes of optical properties of biological tissue are due to the refractive indices matching between the scatterers with high refractive index and the ground substances, which reduce scattering of tissue. The main reasons are that permeated semipermeable chemical agents with higher refractive index than the ground substances of tissue makes the refractive index of ground substances of tissue higher by the enhancement of the permeated concentration. We studied on the collimated transmittance changes of light penetrating biological tissue after the hyperosmotic chemical agents administrates with different concentration.展开更多

文摘An enhancement of mid-wavelength infrared absorbance is achieved via a cost-effectively chemical method to bend the flakes by grafting two types of alkane octane(C_(8)H_(18))and dodecane(C_(12)H_(26))onto the surface terminals respectively.The chain-length of alkane exceeds the bond-length of surface functionalities T(x=O,-OH,-F)so as to introduce intra-flake and inter-flake strains into Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)MXene.The electronic microscopy(TEM/AFM)shows obvious edge-fold and tensile/compressive deformation of flake.The alkane termination increases the intrinsic absorbance of Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)MXene from no more than 50%up to more than 99%in the mid-wavelength in⁃frared region from 2.5μm to 4.5μm.Such an absorption enhancement attributes to the reduce of infrared reflec⁃tance of Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)MXene.The C-H bond skeleton vibration covers the aforementioned region and partially reduces the surface reflectance.Meanwhile,the flake deformation owing to edge-fold and tensile/compression increases the specific surface area so as to increase the absorption as well.These results have applicable value in the area of mid-infrared camouflage.
文摘Potassium Lithium Niobate (KLN) crystal belongs to tetragonal system and is ferroelectric crystal,which point group is 4mm and space group is P4bm .The melt point of KLN crystal is about 1050℃.KLN crystal possesses tungsten bronze structure and its structure general expression is(A 1) 2(A 2) 4C 4(B 1) 2(B 4) 8O 3.KLN crystal is full fill up tungsten bronze structure crystal,in which the light of transmission band is 0.35-5.0μm.KLN crystal has excellent electro optical and nonlinear property and is superior double frequency crystal material for blue light.KLN crystal also is acoustic surface wave and photorefractive material.KLN crystal cracks easily during it grows.But when KLN crystal is doped in Mn 2O 3 to grow Mn∶KLN crystal,the crystal crack is reduced and the photorefractive property of the crystal is enhanced.KLN system is solid solution system and not congruent composition.The compounding ratio of Mn∶KLN crystal which we grew is 47.4mol% Nb 2O 5,17.3mol% Li 2CO 3,35mol% K 2CO 3 and 0.1mol% Mn 2O 3.The purity of Nb 2O 5,Li 2CO 3,K 2CO 3 and Mn 2O 3 is all 99.99%.Czochralski method was used to grow Mn∶KLN crystal.The technical parameters include the axial direction temperature gradient,the crystal growth rate and the rotation rate.Mn∶KLN crystal with 6mm×8mm×20mm size was grown in the condition that the axial direction temperature gradient is 30℃-40℃,the crystal growth rate is 0.5mm/h and the rotation rate is 10-15r/min.KLN crystal is one dimension ferroelectrics crystal.It has a paraelectrics ferroelectrics phase transition point curie point.So the crystal needs to be polarized in manual work.The direct current field was used to force the self polarization Ps in the same direction and the crystal turn to single domain.Before polarization,the c face needs to be confirmed exactly.The platinum pole was pasted to the two surfaces of c face and the direct current voltage about 220V was added the pole as the polarization outer electrical field.The polarization temperature is 460℃ and the polarization current density is 2mA/cm 2 .The thermal analyzer in TAS100 model was used to analyze the thermal expansion character of Mn∶KLN crystal and ascertain that the curie point of Mn∶KLN crystal is 435℃.It can be seen from the measurement result that the change of thermal expansion rate of Mn∶KLN crystal is smaller than that of pure KLN crystal. So doping Mn 2O 3 in KLN crystal to grow Mn∶KLN crystal can reduce the crack of the crystal.

文摘The UV-Vis and infrared(IR)absorption spectra of organophosphorus(OP)pesticides have been studied.A correlation in spectra was developed to optimize the OP pesticides in the environments.The spectroscopic(UV-Vis and IR)spectrum of OP pesticides like methyl parathion,malathion and parathion has been interpreted in detail.A complete calculation of the normal frequencies and absolute intensities of UV-Vis and IR absorption bands are interpreted with the help of corresponding experimental data.In the colorimetric reactions,the bands appear at 2 077,1 637,1 455,1 015,655cm^(-1) for malathion;2 081,1 639,1 316,1 015,794,683cm^(-1) for parathion;2 078,1 632,1 032,794cm^(-1) for methyl parathion were used for quantitative or qualitative analysis.All these IR spectra were acquired by averaging 100 scans at a resolution of 4cm^(-1).It is determined experimentally in the region 200~450nm for UV-Vis absorption bands and in the region 400~4 000cm^(-1) for IR absorption bands.It is concluded that the mainly optically active groups(P—OH, C=O,P=O, C—O—C,P—O—C, P=S, —OH)present in pesticides which are responsible in change in significant data for quantitative and qualitative analysis.The various optical properties like wavelength,band energy,wave number,and frequency,also are calculated.
文摘Optical properties of biological tissue are variable due to the changes of micro-structures and scattering constituents after hyperosmotic chemical agents permeates into tissue. The changes of optical properties of biological tissue are due to the refractive indices matching between the scatterers with high refractive index and the ground substances, which reduce scattering of tissue. The main reasons are that permeated semipermeable chemical agents with higher refractive index than the ground substances of tissue makes the refractive index of ground substances of tissue higher by the enhancement of the permeated concentration. We studied on the collimated transmittance changes of light penetrating biological tissue after the hyperosmotic chemical agents administrates with different concentration.
