The resonant cavities were directly put into the waveguide arms. The optical transmissions of the filters were measured and the results show that the optimized two-channel filters give good intensity distribution at the output ports of the waveguide. A minimum wavelength spacing of 5 nm of the filter outputs is realized by accurately controlling the size of the resonant cavities.展开更多

Microwave heating technique and conventional heating method were applied for the heating treatment process. It was found that, compared with conventional heating method, microwave heating technique could enhance the crystallinity of Si C ceramic material with small grain size at much lower curing temperature and within shorter time. In addition, the SiO_2 additive could lead to less α-Si C and excess carbon, but worsen the crystallinity of β-Si C in the final samples.展开更多

The density of the samples varies from 0.948 g/cm(3) to 0.917 g/cm(3), and the molecular weight determined by the GPC method is in the range of 1 similar to2 x 10(5). The branch paint content of the samples was determined by C-13-NMR measurements and was found to be less than 20 per 1000 C atoms along the main chain. Crystallization segregation DSC technique (CSDSC) was used to characterize the branch point distribution or the segment length distribution of PEs. The crystallization segregation was performed in a successive annealing process at decreasing temperatures. The interval of two successive annealing temperatures was 6 K, and the time length of each annealing step was 2.5 h. The CSDSC results clearly indicate that all the PE samples used, including some metallocene PEs, more or less exhibit their non-uniformity in segment length distribution, and bimodal or multimodal CSDSC curves were usually observed. For quantitative characterization of the CSDSC curves and the segment length distribution two parameters, the average melting point, T-mAV, and the root-mean-square deviation of melting temperature, (DeltaT(m)(AV)(2))(1/2), were proposed. TmAV is corresponding to the average segment length due to branching and (DeltaT(m)(AV)(2))(1/2) gives information about the: width of the segment length distribution. Experimental results show that both the degree of average melting temperature depression and the width of the distribution seem to increase with increasing the branching content and are dependent on the type of comonomers. Very good reproducibility and additivity of the CSDSC method were evidenced experimentally. It was concluded that the CSDSC technique is a sensitive and convenient method for characterizing the segment length distribution of branched polyethylenes and will be of great interest in structure-property relationship studies of crystalline polymers.展开更多

With respect to BCAA crystallization, the incorporation behavior of L-form BCAAs as a guest amino acid in the crystallization of L-form BCAAs is well known. However, the incorporation behavior of D-form BCAAs as a guest amino acid in the crystallization of L-form BCAAs is not clear. In this study, we focused on the crystal conformation and incorporation behavior of D-Leucine (D-Leu) and L-leucine (L-Leu) in the crystallization of L-valine (L-Val). Moreover, the difference in the incorporation behavior was investigated on the basis of the distribution ratio of crystals to mother liquor, and the crystal structure and interaction energy were calculated using a molecular dynamics method. The crystal composed of L-Leu in L-Val formed as a solid solution and L-Leu was substituted into the crystal lattice of L-Val. In the case where D-Leu was added as a guest amino acid during L-Val crystallization, D-Leu was not incorporated into the L-Vallattice because the interaction energy between a D-Leu molecule and the L-Val crystal lattice was substantially greater than that between an L-Leu molecule and the L-Val crystal lattice.展开更多

These results are discussed based on structure differences among the precipitants.展开更多
