CeO2‐MnOx, CeO2‐Al2O3, and MnOx‐Al2O3 mixed oxides, and CeO2 were prepared by the same method for comparison. The samples were characterized by XRD, Raman, N2 physisorption, H2‐TPR, XPS, and in situ DRIFTS. The catalytic re‐duction of NO by CO was chosen as a model reaction to evaluate the catalytic performance. The incorporation of a small amount of Al3+into CeO2‐MnOx mixed oxides resulted in a decrease of crys‐tallite size, with the increase of the BET specific surface area and pore volume, as well as the in‐crease of Ce3+and Mn4+. The former benefits good contact between catalyst and reactants, and the latter promotes the adsorption of CO and the desorption, conversion and dissociation of adsorbed NO. All these enhanced the catalytic performance for the NO+CO model reaction. A reaction mecha‐nism was proposed to explain the excellent catalytic performance of CeO2‐MnOx‐Al2O3 catalysts for NO reduction by CO.展开更多

The first four impurity energy levels and binding energy of the ground state are more easily calculated than with the variation method. The calculation results indicate that impurity energy levels decrease with the increase of the well width and decrease quickly when the well width is small. The binding energy of the ground state increases until it reaches a maximum value, and then decreases as the well width increases. The results are meaningful and can be widely applied in the design of various optoelectronie devices.展开更多

With increasing Eu2O3 content, the average size of ZnO grain firstly decreases and then increases. The grain boundary defect model was particularly used to explain the excellent nonlinearity of ZnO-Bi2O3-based varistor ceramics with the addition of0.1% Eu2O3 and sintered at 950 ℃.展开更多

The products were characterized by X-ray diffractometry(XRD) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). The electrochemical characterizations were performed by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and constant current charge-discharge in a three-electrode system. The effects of different potential windows, scan rates, and cycle numbers on the capacitance behavior of Mn0.8Ni0.2Ox composite oxide were also investigated. The results show that the composite oxides are of nano-size and amorphous structure. With increasing the molar ratio of Ni, the specific capacitance goes through a maximum at molar fraction of Ni of 20%. The specific capacitance of Mn0.8Ni0.2Ox composite oxide is 194.5 F/g at constant current discharge of 5 mA.展开更多

We propose a novel approach to synthesize the nitrogen-doped graphene via thermal annealing graphene with urea, in which the nitrogen source can be controllably released from the urea by varying the annealed temperature and time. The doped N content and the configuration N as well as the thermal stabilities are also evaluated with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman spectra. Electrical measurements indi- cate that the conductivity of doped graphene can be well regulated with the N content. The method is expected to produce large scale and controllable N-doped graphene sheets for a variety of potential applications.展开更多

The dressed fermions interact occurring directly through the kinetic energy byexchanging magnetic excitations. This interaction leads to a net attractive force between dressedfermions, then the electron Cooper pairs originating from the dressed fermion pairing state are dueto the charge-spin recombination, and their condensation reveals the superconducting ground state.The superconducting transition temperature is identical to the dressed fermion pair transitiontemperature, and is suppressed to a lower temperature due to the strong magnetic frustration. Theoptimal superconducting transition temperature occurs in the electron doping concentration δ ≈0.29, and then decreases for both underdoped and overdoped regimes, in qualitative agreement withthe experimental results.展开更多

The band gaps narrowing of AI1-x Cox N are found with the increase of Co concentrations. The analyses of the band structures and density of states show that AI1-xCoxN alloys exhibit a halfometallie character. Moreover, we have succeeded in demonstrating that Co doped AIN system in x = 0.125 is always antiferromagnetie, which is in good agreement with the experimental results. Besides, it is shown that the insertion of Co atom leads to redshift of the optical absorption edge. Finally, the optical constants of pure A1N and AI1-xCoxN alloy, such as loss function, refractive index and reflectivity, are discussed.展开更多

B 45 (1992) 19], we report the results of the Hydrogenie-impurity ground state in a GaAs/AIAs spherical quantum dot under an electric field. We discuss the variations of the binding energies of the Hydrogenic-impurity ground state as a function of the position of impurity D, the radius R of the quantum dot, and also as a function of electric field F. We find that the ground energy and binding energy of impurity placed anywhere depend strongly on the position of impurity. Also, electric field can largely change the Hydrogenic-impurity ground state only limiting to the big radius of quantum dot. And the differences in energy level and binding energy are observed from the center donor and off-center donor.展开更多
