An Innovative Method for the Determination of Sulfur-containing Compounds by Vapor Molecular Absorption Spectrometry

Since the most sensitive resonance lines of nonmetallic elements are situated in vacuum ultraviolet region （below 190 nm）, they can not be directly determined with a common AAS instrument covering the spectral range from 190 to 700 nm. The molecular absorption spectrometry is often used for the determination of nonmetallic elements. Syty et al. used vapor molecular absorption spectrometry（VMAS） to determine the sulfur dioxide and sulfide, in which a hydrogen hollow cathode lamp was used as a continuum source to determine SO;at 210 nm and a deuterium arc

Comparison between Spectrophotometry and Gas Phase Molecular Absorption Spectrometry for Determination of Nitrite Nitrogen in Flue Gas

Spectrophotometry and gas phase molecular absorption spectrometry for determination of nitrite nitrogen in flue gas were compared.KOH absorption solution was used to absorb nitrite nitrogen in flue gas,and the concentration of nitrite nitrogen in the absorption solution was determined by spectrophotometry and gas phase molecular absorption spectrometry to obtain the concentration of nitrite nitrogen in flue gas.The experiments show that both methods are accurate and reliable.

A 3-D Hybrid Dynamic Channel Model for Indoor THz Communications

To meet the demands for the explosive growth of mobile data rates and scarcity of spectrum resources in the near future,the terahertz(THz)band has widely been regarded as a key enabler for the upcoming beyond fifth-generation(B5G)wireless communications.An accurate THz channel model is crucial for the design and deployment of the THz wireless communication systems.In this paper,a three-dimensional(3-D)dynamic indoor THz channel model is proposed by means of combining deterministic and stochastic modeling approaches.Clusters are randomly distributed in the indoor environment and each ray is characterized with consideration of molecular absorption and diffuse scattering.Moreover,we present the dynamic generation procedure of the channel impulse responses(CIRs).Statistical properties are investigated to indicate the non-stationarity and feasibility of the proposed model.Finally,by comparing with delay spread and K-factor results from the measurements,the utility of the proposed channel model is verified.

THz Channel Modeling: Consolidating the Road to THz Communications

For the sake of meeting the demand of data rates at terabit(Tbit)per second scale in future networks,the terahertz(THz)band is widely accepted as one of the potential key enabling technologies for next generation wireless communication systems.With the progressive development of THz devices,regrading THz communications at system level is increasing crucial and captured the interest of plenty of researchers.Within this scope,THz channel modeling serves as an indispensable and fundamental element.By surveying the latest literature findings,this paper reviews the problem of channel modeling in the THz band,with an emphasis on molecular absorption loss,misalignment fading and multipath fading,which are major influence factors in the THz channel modeling.Then,we focus on simulators and experiments in the THz band,after which we give a brief introduction on applications of THz channel models with respects to capacity,security,and sensing as examples.Finally,we discuss some key issues in the future THz channel modeling.

SELECTION OF BRILLOUIN SHIFT DISCRIMINATOR FOR BRILLOUIN LIDAR

For the measurement of vertical profiles of sound speed in the sea using laser excited Brillouin scattering, a high resolution measurement of Brillouin frequency shift is required. In this work, a molecular absorption cell was selected as the frequency shift discriminator and several kinds of absorption gases were tried. It was found that the strong line (#1095) of 127 I 2 at 18783.3297 cm -1 and two absorption lines of 129 I 2 located at the two sides of the #1095 line of 127 I 2 could be used as frequency shift discriminator to detect the changes of the Brillouin frequency shift. This selection is the best one within the range from 532.0131 nm to 532.5154 nm. But it is not perfect and there is a lot of work to do before its practical application.

Novel and Validated Spectrophotometric Matrix Matching Method for Simple and Rapid Determination of Chromium in Oily Media

N,N'-bis(4-methoxysalicylidene)ethylenediamine is proposed as analytical reagent for the direct determination of chromium in original matrix of liquid oils.The method is based on the complexation of N,N'-bis(4-methoxysalicylidene)ethylenediamine and chromium in n-hexane∶acetone(1∶4)medium and spectrophotometric determination at 355 nm against reagent blank.Complexation of MSE and chromium is completed in20 seconds at molar ratio 1∶1.The molar absorptivity and the formation constant of the complex are determined as 9 740L·mol^(-1)·cm^(-1) and 3.6(±0.1)×10~5,respectively.Beer's law is obeyed in range 0.02~1.50mg·L^(-1) chromium concentration.Limits of detection and quantification of the suggested method were7.5 and 25.11μg·kg-,respectively.The accuracy and precision of the method was checked by finding mean recovery and relative standard deviation by oil-based chromium standard analysis as 96.4%±1.4%and 1.5%,respectively.The practical applicability of elaborate method was tested using oil-based chromium standard spiked and unspiked corn,sunflower,soybean,olive and canola oils.
