The heat transfer process was simulated using software ANSYS, and an on-line shell monitoring system was established based on optical sensing technology. According to aluminum reduction cell heat transfer theory, the 2D slice finite element model was developed. The relationship between shell temperature and cell status was discussed. Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) was chosen as the temperature sensor in light of its unique advantages. The accuracy of designed FBG temperature sensors exceeds 2 ~C, and good repeatability was exhibited. An interrogation system with 104 sensors based on VPG (volume phase grating) filter was established. Through the long-term monitoring on running state, the status of the aluminum reduction cell, including security and fatigue life could be acquired and estimated exactly. The obtained results provide the foundation for the production status monitoring and fault diagnosis.

Based on the optimized geometries, the electronic, fluorescent and 13C NMR spectra are calculated with INDO/CIS, CIS-ZINDO TD, and B3LYP/6-31G^* methods, respectively. Starting with the first of the series, the LUMO-HOMO energy gaps of the derivatives become wider and the fluorescent wavelengths and the main peaks in the electronic spectra are blue-shifted owing to the large steric effect of naphthyl rings. On the contrary, the energy gaps of the derivatives turn narrow, and the fluorescent wavelengths and the main peaks in the electronic spectra are red-shifted since hydroxyl groups improve the symmetry and extend the conjugation system. The chemical shifts of sp^2-C on the phenyl rings are moved upfield, while chemical shifts of carbon atoms on the cyano groups and those connected with the cyano groups are changed downfield in the presence of hydroxyl groups.展开更多

Three kinds of adsorption sites including the hollow, bridge and top sites are studied. The two forms of this molecule, namely the open form and the closed form, can reversibly switch from each other upon photoexcitation. Their transmission spectra are remarkably distinctive. Theoretical results show that the current of the closed form is always significantly larger than that of the open form for all three adsorption sites, which promises this system as possibly one of the good candidates for optical switches due to its unique advantage, and which may have some potential applications in the future molecular circuit.展开更多

The calculated lattice constants are in good agreement with experiment ones. The electronic structures show that SrMO4 has a direct band gap situated at F point. The calculated elastic constants indicate that both structures are mechanically stable. The bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young's modulus and Poisson ratio are investigated from the elastic constants, in the same time the anisotropy of the elastic properties is discussed. The imaginary part of the dielectric functions is calculated and the contributions of various transitions peaks are analyzed. Furthermore, the other optical properties such as absorption coefficient I(w), optical reflectivity R(w), energy-loss spectrum L(w), and the refractive index n(w) have been investigated.展开更多

文摘The third-order nonlinear optical(NLO)materials with stimuli-responsive properties have received extraordinary attention due to their controllable photophysical properties.In this work,two attractive metal complexes third-order NLO switches,which are far superior to congeneric optical switches in terms of their performance conversion,versatility,and fast response,were successfully designed and synthesized.The test of their third-order NLO properties proves that the metal complexes exhibit reverse saturable absorption and self-defocusing refraction.After light irradiation,the third-order NLO behavior turns quickly into self-focusing refraction.The relation between the molecular structures and the third-order NLO properties was investigated via1H nuclear magnetic resonance and ultraviolet-visible absorption.The results show that the metal ions have a significant influence on the NLO behavior and reveal the origin of third-order NLO properties via Z-scan determinations,pump-probe technology,and density functional theory calculations.These metal complexes can be used as third-order NLO switches with excellent fatigue resistance and broaden the application range of third-order NLO materials with adjustable performances.
文摘A planes waves pseudo-potential calculations are performed for the SrMO4 (M=Mo and W) compound in order to investigate the structural, electronic, elastic and optical properties. The calculated lattice constants are in good agreement with experiment ones. The electronic structures show that SrMO4 has a direct band gap situated at F point. The calculated elastic constants indicate that both structures are mechanically stable. The bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young's modulus and Poisson ratio are investigated from the elastic constants, in the same time the anisotropy of the elastic properties is discussed. The imaginary part of the dielectric functions is calculated and the contributions of various transitions peaks are analyzed. Furthermore, the other optical properties such as absorption coefficient I(w), optical reflectivity R(w), energy-loss spectrum L(w), and the refractive index n(w) have been investigated.
