In this work, for a selected polyacetylene chain, the optical absorption spectra in UV/Vis regime as well as the linear polarizabiliti y and nonlinear hyperpolarizability are calculated by using quantum chemical ab initio and semiempirical methods. The relationship of its optical property to el ectric field is obtained. Some physical mechanism of electric field effect on mo lecular optical property is discussed by means of electron distribution and intr amolecular charge transfer.展开更多

The orthogonal design method is adopted for experimental design. The experimental results show that alcohol can trigger the shrinking and Ba2t can induce the swelling of the P(NIPAM-co-BCAm) copolymer. According to the phase transition tempera- ture (LCST) change results of the copolymer, the influence of variables on the LCST changes weakens in the following order: alcohol concentration 〉 alcohol species 〉 metal ion species 〉 BCAm concentration 〉 ion concentration. The larger the alcohol concentration and the larger the molecular size of alcohols, the lower the LCST value; on the contrary, the more the BCAm content in the copolymer or the larger the BCAm/ion complex stability constant (IgK) or the larger the ion concentration is, the higher the LCST value. For a P(NIPAM-co-BCAm ) copolymer with a fixed BCAm content, a binary function of ion concentration and IgK of BCAm/ion is developed to precisely predict the LCST values of the copolymer in different metal ion solutions. The results provide valuable information for fabricating artificial biomimetic G-protein-gated inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels that are activated by alcohol and inhibited by Ba2+.展开更多
