The micrograph taken by a scanning electron microscope showsthe microstructures of the materials in detail. Scattering parameters of the waveguide sample holderfilled with the materials have been obtained over X band. The electromagnetic parameters computedfrom the measured S parameters show that the material with metallic hollow spheres has as highrelative permeability μ'_r as 19.0 with about 0.6 magnetic loss tangent over the whole bandwidth.Compared to the material with non-metallic spheres, the permeability μ'_r and the magnetic losstangent μ'_r increase greatly, while the permittivity remains lower than 1.8.展开更多

With a small decay rate, the energy transfer efficiency is quantitatively reflected by the average life time of excitation energy before being trapped in the sink where the decay process is omitted. In the weak dissipation regime, the trapping time is analyzed within the exciton population subspace based on the secular Redfield equation. The requirement of the noise-enhanced energy transfer is obtained, where the trapping time follows an exact or approximate 1/F- scaling of the dissipation strength F. On the opposite side, optimal initial system states are conceptually constructed to suppress the 1/F-scaling of the trapping time and maximize the coherent transfer efficiency. Our theory is numerically testified in four models, including a biased two-site system, a symmetric three-site branching system, a homogeneous one- dimensional chain, and an 8-chromophore FMO protein complex.展开更多

In the present study, chemical vapor deposited (CVD) monolayer graphene supported on glass substrate electrochemical biosensing applications was examined as electrode material for We report a facile strategy for covalent functionalization of CVD monolayer graphene by electrochemical reduction of carboxyphenyl diazonium salt prepared in situ in acidic aqueous solution. The carboxyphenyl-modified graphene is characterized using Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM), as well as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (hIS). We also show that the number of grafted carboxyphenyl groups on the graphene surface can be controlled by the number of cyclic voltammetry (CV) scans used for electrografting. We further present the fabrication and characterization of an immunosensor based on immobilization of ovalbumin antibody on the graphene surface after the activation of the grafted carboxylic groups via EDC/NHS chemistry. The binding between the surface-immobilized antibodies and ovalbumin was then monitored using Faradaic EIS in [Fe(CN)6]^3-/4- solution. The percentage change of charge transfer resistance (Rct) after binding exhibited a linear dependence for ovalbumin concentrations ranging from 1.0 pg·mL^-1 to 100 ng·mL^-1, with a detection limit of 0.9 pg·mL^-1. Our results indicate good sensitivity of the developed functionalized CVD graphene platform, paving the way for using CVD monolayer graphene in a variety of electrochemical biosensing devices.展开更多
