The results showed that the photosynthetic rate in leaves of high cal- cium cultivar was higher than that low calcium cultivar. The calcium content in leaves of rice was higher than that in roots. Among various tissues and organs, the calcium contents ranked as cell wall〉ribosome and intracellular soluble components〉 plastid (or chloroplasts)〉mitochondria〉nucleus. Cell wall is the most important distri- bution place for calcium, while calcium is rarely distributed in nuclei or mitochon- drias. In all the organelles, the calcium concentrations were all increased with the increased treatment concentration of calcium, especially in high calcium cultivar. The high calcium treatment showed more significant effects on calcium contents in im- portant organelles of high calcium cultivar, so it is speculated that the high calcium cultivar had higher calcium accumulation and tolerance capacities.展开更多

The fractions containing longer rods showed relatively stronger oxygen-related surface trap emission, while the shorter ones had dominant band-edge emission. These results suggest that the final length distribution of CdS nanorods is not a result of random nucleation and growth, but is related to the local synthesis conditions. Inspired by these findings, different synthesis environments (N2, air, and 02) have been employed in order to tailor the length distribution. In addition to the rod length, the photoluminescence properties of CdS nanorods can also be manipulated. Increasing the oxygen partial pressure significantly changed the growth behavior of CdS nanorods by improving the anisotropic growth.展开更多

According to three criteria proposed for assessment, several commonly used empirical phase functions are compared with their related practical or theoretical scattering distributions in terms of fitting errors under the circumstances of typical seawater and single-component polydisperse systems. The optimal factors corresponding to the minimum fitting errors are also calculated. It is found that both the one-term Henyey-Greenstein (OTHG) and two-term Henyey-Greenstein (TTHG) phase functions agree well with the theoretical ones for small particles, while the Fouriner-Forand (FF) phase function can be used in the case of suspensions with large suspended particles. The fitting accuracy of OTHG is the worst, FF is better and TTHG is the best.展开更多

Taking the advantage of the fluorescence property of NBD, we could directly observe the cellular distribution of the self-assembled nanofibers. We found that the distributions of the nanofibers of NBD-FFETIGGY are dif- ferent in four mammalian cells and two plant cells. The nanofibers are mainly located at the surface of two mammalian cells and one plant cell, while in the intracellular space of other cells. Different distributions of nanofibers lead to different protein binding patterns o1! the nanofibers in two different cell lines. We believe that a useful and versatile platform has been offered to the image cellular distribution of nanofibers, which can provide useful information to the biological functions of the self-assembled nanostructures.展开更多

As a result, by simply varying the Gauss/an pump beam intensity and the beam size, the converted photons could be modulated spatially and exhibit a programmable distribution. This will be meaningful for the researches on quantum communication and quantum manipulation based on frequency up-conversion svstem.展开更多
