The u, d, s quarks have small current masses, and the renormalization is very large, the mass poles in the timelike region are absent which implements confinement naturally. The Bethe-Salpeter wavefunctions of the pseudoscalar mesons π, K, and the scalar diquarks U^a, D^a, S^a have the same type (Gaussian type) momentum dependence, center around zero momentum and extend to the energy scale about q^2 = 1 GeV^2, which happens to be the energy scale for the chiral symmetry breaking, the strong interactions in the infrargd region result in bound (or quasl-bound) states. The numerical results for the masses and decay constants of the π and K mesons can reproduce the experimental values, and the ground state masses of the scalar diquarks U^a, D^a, S^a are consistent with the existing theoretical calculations. We suggest a new Lagrangian which may explain the uncertainty of the masses of the scalar diauarks.展开更多

Total energies are obtained as a function of the confined potential radii. We find that the confinement may cause accidental degeneracies between levels with different low-excited states and the inversion of the energy values.展开更多

In the model used, the two transitions are, respectively, coupled by leading to some curious phenomena. Numerical simulations the upper and lower bands in such a PBG material, thus are performed for the optical spectra. It is found that when one transition frequency is inside the band gap and the other is outside the gap, there emerge three peaks in the absorption spectra. However, for the case that two transition frequencies lie inside or outside the band gap, the spectra display four absorption profiles. Especially, there appear two sharp peaks in the spectra when both transition frequencies exist inside the band gap. The influences of the intensity and frequency of the RF-driven field on the absorptive and dispersive response are analyzed under different band-edge positions. It is found that a transparency window appears in the absorption spectra and is accompanied by a very steep variation of the dispersion profile by adjusting system parameters. These results show that the absorption-dispersion properties of the system depend strongly on the RF-induced quantum interference and the density of states (DOS) of the PBG reservoir.展开更多

Integration of TiO2 with another semiconductor with a band gap of -1.0 eV would be ideal to harvest both ultraviolet and visible-near infrared light for photocatalysis; however, most narrow-bandgap semiconductors have straddling band structure alignments with TiO2, constituting an obstacle to forming the Z-scheme for photocatalytic hydrogen production. In this communication, we demonstrate Ag2S as a model system where the energy band upshift of the narrow-bandgap semiconductor that shares an interface with a metal can overcome this limitation. To fabricate the design, we developed a unique approach to synthesize Ag2S-Ag-TiO2 hybrid structures. The obtained ternary hybrid structures exhibited dramatically enhanced performance in photocatalytic hydrogen pro- duction under full-spectrum light illumination. The activities were significantly higher than the sum of those of Ag2S-Ag-TiO2 structures under λ〈 400 nm and λ 〉 400 nm irradiation as well as those of their counterparts under any light illumination conditions.展开更多
