Coulomb explosion of CS_2 molecule under an intense femtosecond laser field

We experimentally demonstrate the Coulomb explosion process of CS_2 molecule under a near-infrared(800 nm)intense femtosecond laser field by a DC-sliced ion imaging technique. We obtain the DC-sliced images of these fragment ions S~+, S~(2+), CS~+, and CS~(2+)by breaking one C–S bond, and assign their Coulomb explosion channels by considering their kinetic energy release and angular distribution. We also numerically simulate the dissociation dynamics of parent ions CS_2~(k+)(k = 2–4) by a Coulomb potential approximation, and obtain the time evolution of Coulomb energy and kinetic energy release, which indicates that the dissociation time of parent ions CS_2~(k+) decreases with the increase of the charge number k.These experimental and theoretical results can serve as a useful benchmark for those researchers who work in the related area.     

The angular intensity correlation functions C(1) and C(10) for the scattering of light from randomly rough dielectric and metal surfaces

We study the statistical properties of the scattering matrix S(q|k) for the problem of the scattering of light of frequency ω from a randomly rough one-dimensional surface, defined by the equation x₃=ζ(x₁), where the surface profile function ζ(x₁) constitutes a zero-mean, stationary, Gaussian random process. This is done by studying the effects of S(q|k) on the angular intensity correlation function C(q,k|q',k')=〈I(q|k)I(q'|k')〉-〈I(q|k)〉〈I(q'|k')〉, where the intensity I(q|k) is defined in terms of S(q|k) by I(q|k)=L^-1₁(ω/c)|S(q|k)|², with L₁ the length of the x₁ axis covered by the random surface. We focus our attention on the C⁽¹⁾ and C⁽¹⁰⁾ correlation functions, which are the contributions to C(q,k|q',k') proportional to δ(q-k-q'+k') and δ(q-k+q'-k'), respectively. The existence of both of these correlation functions is consistent with the amplitude of the scattered field obeying complex Gaussian statistics in the limit of a long surface and in the presence of weak surface roughness. We show that the deviation of the statistics of the scattering matrix from complex circular Gaussian statistics and the C⁽¹⁰⁾ correlation function are determined by exactly the same statistical moment of S(q|k). As the random surface becomes rougher, the amplitude of the scattered field no longer obeys complex Gaussian statistics but obeys complex circular Gaussian statistics instead. In this case the C⁽¹⁰⁾ correlation function should therefore vanish. This result is confirmed by numerical simulation calculations.

Solvent fluctuations and viscosity-dependent rates of solution reactions in a regime indescribable by the transition state theory

An organic molecule isomerizes in viscous solvents when appropriate cavities are formed around it in the course of slow diffusive thermal fluctuations of solvent molecules. The isomerization occurs when fast twisting (vibrational) fluctuations around a bond get to have large amplitudes in such cavities. This situation can be described by the two-reaction-coordinate model of Sumi and Marcus originally proposed for electron transfer reactions. In fact, the rate constant derived from this model fits nicely to that observed for thermal Z→E isomerization of substituted azobenzenes and N-benzylideneanilines. The rate constant is influenced by slow speeds of diffusive motions of solvent molecules, whose relaxation time τ is usually proportional to the solvent viscosity η. It has a form of k = 1/(k_TST⁻¹+k_f⁻¹), where k_TST, independent of τ, represents the rate constant expected from the transition state theory (TST), while k_f ∝ τ⁻ with 0 < ≤ 1 represents the part controlled by solvent fluctuations. An analytic expression of for the isomerization reactions is given in terms of physical parameters underlying the reaction mechanism with cavity formation.

This rate-constant formula is a general one applicable widely also to other solution reactions, covering from the TST-validated regime for a small τ to the TST-invalidated one for a large τ. In the former, k approaches k_TST since k_f k_TST, while in the latter, k approaches k_f since k_f k_TST, becoming decreasing with a decrease in the typical speed (∝ τ⁻¹) of solvent fluctuations. The dependence of k ≈ k_f ∝ η⁻ in the non-TST regime has often been observed also in biological reactions such as enzymatic ones. In this case, it is not appropriate to say that reactions are controlled by slow speeds of solvent fluctuations, but we should rather say that enzymes utilize this situation, which has been called conformational gating, in the course of solvent-fluctuation-driven conformational fluctuations of proteins. It has important meanings in protein functions.

Ab initio studies of copper hydrides under high pressure

The crystal structure, electronic structure, and superconductivity of copper hydrides at high pressure have been studied by ab initio calculation. Consistent with experimental report, results show that the predicted stoichiometry Cu₂H with the P-3m1 space group is stable above 16.8 GPa. The stoichiometry of CuH with the Fm-3m space group is predicted to be synthesized above 30 GPa, but it is metastable and dynamical instable up to 120 GPa. The electronic band calculations reveal that Cu₂H is a good metal at a stable pressure range, whereas CuH is an insulator. Moreover, the other hydrogenrich compounds CuH₂ and CuH₃ are thermodynamically and dynamically unstable, respectively. The calculated superconducting transition temperature (T _c) of Cu₂H at 40 GPa is 0.028 K by using the Allen-Dynes modified McMillan equation.     

相位角对容性耦合电非对称放电特性的影响

电非对称效应作为一种新兴技术,被广泛用于对离子能量和离子通量的独立调控.此外,在改善等离子体的径向均匀性方面,电非对称效应也发挥了重要作用.本文采用二维流体力学模型,并耦合麦克斯韦方程组,系统地研究了容性耦合氢等离子体中当放电由多谐波叠加驱动时,不同谐波阶数k下的电非对称效应,重点观察了相位角θ_n对自偏压以及等离子体径向均匀性的影响.模拟结果表明：在同一谐波阶数下,自偏压随相位角θ_n的变化趋势不尽相同,且当k增大（k>3）时,自偏压随最高频相位角θ_k的变化范围逐渐减小.此外,通过调节相位角θ_n,可以改变轴向功率密度和径向功率密度的相对关系,进而实现对等离子体径向均匀性的调节.研究结果对于利用电非对称效应优化等离子体工艺过程具有一定的指导意义.

Interactions between a tetraanionic porphyrin and the methylviologen dication in methanol studied by fluorescence quenching reaction

Fluorescence decay curves for 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)-21H,23H-porphine tetraanion (TPPS⁴⁻) have been measured in the absence and presence of the methylviologen dication (MV²⁺) with various ionic strengths in methanol. In the presence of MV²⁺ the fluorescence decays can be expressed by a double exponential function, I(t = I₁exp(−t/τ₁) + I₂exp(−t/τ₂). The contribution by the faster decay component to the total fluorescence signal increases with increasing MV²⁺ concentration. The faster decay process is attributed to fluorescence from the excited state of a solvent-separated ion pair (SSIP) formed between TPPS⁴⁻ and MV²⁺, and the slower process is attributed to fluorescence from free TPPS⁴⁻ ions in the solution. Rate constants for the quenching of fluorescence from free TPPS⁴⁻ by MV²⁺ (k_q) and formation constants for the SSIP (K_SSIP) were calculated and both are found to decrease with increasing ionic strength. The decrease in k_q and K_SSIP values can be interpreted in terms of the shielding of electrostatic attraction between the ions.     

Determination of 25 elements in the complex oxide mineral zirconolite by analytical electron microscopy

In this paper we describe a technique for the determination of 25 elements in natural zirconolite using energy-dispersive analytical electron microscopy (AEM). The method presented here allows one to quantitatively investigate the chemistry of submicron-scale zones in complex oxide minerals. The effects of electron channeling, thickness variability and variations in detector resolution were minimized by using a controlled set of operating procedures and instrument parameters. To provide a high level of accurayy, k_ATI-factors were determined from standards for most of the 25 elements of interest, including all of the major elements. Each analytical spectrum is reduced to a set of raw peak counts (and errors) using a digital top-hat filter to suppress background followed by multiple least squares fitting of reference spectra. Counting times of 12–15 min per analysis were required to provide suitable counting statistics. Results are presented for zirconolite samples from the contact metamorphic aureole of the Bergell granodiorite intrusion, Switzerland-Italy. A comparison of 43 AEM analyses with 15 analyses obtained by wavelength-dispersive electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) shows that there is excellent agreement between the two data sets in the amounts of individual elements present, chemical trends and overall stoichiometry. An assessment of the combined data set shows that the major substitution mechanisms in the Bergell samples are coupled substitutions involving the M5,6- and M8-sites of the zirconolite structure: ^M8Ca²⁺ + ^M5,6Ti⁴⁺→^M8REE³⁺ + ^M5,6(Al,Fe)³⁺ and ^M8Ca²⁺ + ^M5,6Ti⁴⁺→^M8(Th,U)⁴⁺ + ^M5,6 (Mg,Fe)²⁺.     

Geometric structure of N2Oq+ (q = 5, 6) studied by Ne8+ ion-induced Coulomb explosion imaging

We report the study on the complete three-body Coulomb explosion (CE) of N₂O^q+ (q = 5, 6) induced by 56-keV/u Ne⁸⁺ ion collision with N₂O gaseous molecule. Six CE channels for N₂O⁵⁺ and seven for N₂O⁶⁺ are identified by measuring three ionic fragments and the charge-changed projectile in quadruple coincidence. Correspondingly the kinetic energy release (KER) and momentum correlation angle (MCA) distributions of three ionic fragments for each of the CE channels are also deduced. Numerical computation is presented to reconstruct the geometric structure of N₂O^q+ prior to dissociation based on the measured KER and MCA. The N-N and N-O bond lengths and the N-N-O bond angles of N₂O^q+ for each of the channels are determined.     

Study on the local structure of (CrO6) complex in garnet crystals by optical and EPR spectrum

The local lattice structure distortions for YAG and YGG systems doped with Cr³⁺ have been investigated by the d³ configuration complete energy matrices which contain the Zeeman energy besides the electron–electron interaction, the trigonal crystal field as well as the spin–orbit coupling interaction. The local lattice structure parameters R and θ of (CrO₆)⁹⁻ complex are determined for Cr³⁺ in YAG and YGG systems, respectively. The calculated results show that the local lattice structures have expansion distortions, which almost tend to the same after distortions. Meanwhile, the EPR parameter D, g factors (g_||, g) and optical spectrum of these systems have been interpreted uniformly by quantitative calculation. It is shown that the effect of the orbit reduction factor k on g factors (g_||, g) cannot be ignored.

Existence and stability of propagating fronts for an autocatalytic reaction-diffusion system

We study a one-dimensional reaction-diffusion system which describes an isothermal autocatalytic chemical reaction involving both a quadratic (A + B → 2B) and a cubic (A + 2B → 3B) autocatalysis. The parameters of this system are in the ratio D = D_B/D_A of the diffusion constants of the reactant A and the autocatalyst B, and the relative activity k of the cubic reaction. First, for all values of D > 0 and k ≥ 0, we prove the existence of a family of propagating fronts (or travelling waves) describing the advance of the reaction. In particular, in the quadratic case k = 0, we recover the results of Billingham and Needham [Phil. Trans. R. Soc. London A 334 (1991) 1–24]. Then, if D is close to 1 and k is sufficiently small, we prove using energy functionals that these propagating fronts are stable against small perturbations in exponentially weighted Sobolev spaces. This extends part of the results that are known for the scalar equation to which our system reduces when D = 1.

Mean power transmission for one-dimensional random wave propagation using a cumulant expansion

In this paper the problem of the mean power transmission for one-dimensional wave propagation in a random medium is studied. We use a cumulant technique valid for small k₀L_c where measures the size of the fluctuations, L_c is the correlation length of the random wave number, and k₀ is the undisturbed wave number. We obtain an integral expression for the mean transmitted power. It shows exponential decay for large width, and linear decay for small width. The relevant scale to measure the width of the slab is ²k²₀∫^∞₀C(x)cos(2k₀x)dx where C(x) is the autocorrelation of the random wave number.     

Off-energy-shell continuation of the two-nucleon transition matrix in the presence of tensor forces

For a coupled partial wave with a bound state, the entire T-matrix is determined by the bound-state energy and wave function, the on-shell mixing parameter and a real symmetric matrix function σ(k₂,₂ k₁₁) of the continuous momentum variables k and the discrete eigenchannel labels . The on-shell part of σ is given by the eigenphases, the arbitrariness of the T-matrix is the off-shell continuation of this phase-shift matrix σ(k₂, k₁) into two dimensions. Three possible techniques are suggested to go from to the entire T-matrix. This construction procedure for T avoids the usual complications of a potential fit.     

EPR evidence of local lattice mode in K3H(SO4)2 and Rb3H(SO4)2 fast-proton conductors

The observation of an anomalous temperature dependence of Mn²⁺ EPR spectra linewidth and nonaxial crystal-field parameter in K₃H(SO₄)₂ and Rb₃H(SO₄)₂ allows one to suggest the presence of “local mode” predicted by Yamada (Ferroelectrics 170 (1995) 23). The activation energy for this kind of excitation was found and equals 11.3 (0.5) and 7.4 (0.3) meV for Mn²⁺ doped K₃H(SO₄)₂ and Rb₃H(SO₄)₂, respectively.
