The downward vibrational frequency shift of the C-O stretching mode in adsorbed Mo(CO)6 illustrates that different interactions of adsorbed Mo(CO)6 occur on clean Si(111) and SiO2/Si(111) surfaces, weak on the former and strong on the latter. The strong interaction on SiO2/Si(111) might lead to the partial dissociation of Mo(CO)6, consequently the formation of molybdenum subcarbonyls. Therefore, employing Mo(CO)6 as the precursor, metallic molybdenum could be successfully deposited on the SiO2/Si(111) surface but not on the clean Si(111) surface. A portion of the deposited metallic molybdenum is transformed into the MoOa on the SiO2/Si(111) surface upon heating, and the evolved MoO3 finally desorbs from the substrate upon annealing at elevated temperatures.展开更多

The positions of more than 7300 lines of ^15N2^16O isotopologue were measured with a typical accuracy of 5.0×10-4 cm-1. The transitions were rovibrationally assigned on the basis of the global effective Hamiltonian model. The band by band analysis allowed for the determination of the rovibrational parameters of a total of 73 bands. 29 of them are newly reported and more rotational transitions have been observed for the others. The maximum deviation of the preidictions of the effective Hamiltonian model is up to 0.70 cm-1 for the ^15N2^16O species.展开更多

The sample was dissolved in HNO3 and HCI by microwave digestion. Most of the spectral interferences could be avoided by measuring in the high resolution mode. The matrix effects because of the presence of excess HC1 and nickel were evaluated. Correction for matrix effects was made using Sc, Rh and T1 as internal standards. The optimum conditions for the determination were tested and discussed. The detection limits range from 0.012 to 1.76 ~tg/g depending on the type of elements. The applicability of the proposed method is also validated by the analysis of high purity nickel reference material (NIST SRM 671). The relative standard deviation (RSD) is less than 3.3%. Results for determination of trace elements in high purity nickel were presented.展开更多

In conventional resolution improvement methods, the seismic data is assumed stationary and the noise level not changes with space, whereas the actual situation does not satisfy this assumption, so that results after resolution improvement processing is not up to the expected effect. To solve these problems, we propose a seismic resolution improvement method based on the secondary time-frequency spectrum. First, we propose the secondary time-frequency spectrum based on S transform (ST) and discuss the reflection coefficient sequence and time-dependent wavelet in the secondary time frequency spectrum. Second, using the secondary time frequency spectrum, we design a two- dimensional filter to extract the amplitude spectrum of the time-dependent wavelet. Then, we discuss the improvement of the resolution operator in noisy environments and propose a novel approach for determining the broad frequency range of the resolution operator in the time- fi'equency-space domain. Finally, we apply the proposed method to synthetic and real data and compare the results of the traditional spectrum-modeling deconvolution and Q compensation method. The results suggest that the proposed method does not need to estimate the Q value and the resolution is not limited by the bandwidth of the source. Thus, the resolution of the seismic data is improved sufficiently based on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).展开更多

It is an ultrahigh spectral-resolution atmospheric detector which can detect atmospheric chemical composition, temperature, and humidity profiles with high accuracy and resolution. In the present study, through comparative analyses of the similarities and differences between the IASI and the radiosonde observation (RAOB) water vapor data, and between the IASI and the Aqua-AIRS water vapor retrievals, a detailed and systematic assessment of the credibility of the IASI water vapor retrievals over the plateau region was made. A comparison of the IASI retrievals with the AIRS retrievals and the RAOB measurements over the Tibetan Plateau revealed that the IASI retrieval data are reliable and can be used for conducting further studies.展开更多

The electron momentum distributions for the ionization peaks cor- responding to the outer-valence orbitals are obtained by deconvoluting a series of azimuthal angular correlated binding energy spectra. Comparison is made with the theoretical calcu- lations for two conformers, trans and gauche, coexisting in the gas phase of ethanol at the level of B3LYP density functional theory with aug-cc-pVTZ basis sets. It is found that the measured electron momentum distributions for the peaks at 14.5 and 15.2 eV are in good agreement with the theoretical electron momentum distributions for the molecular orbitals of individual conformers (i.e., 8a' of trans and 9a of gauche), but not in accordance with the thermally averaged ones. It demonstrates that the high-resolution electron momentum spectrometer, by inspecting the molecular electronic structure, is a promising technique to identify different conformers in a mixed sample.展开更多

The results of high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscope, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS) characterizations on the product B show that the thickness of the carbon shells of CEINPs in the product B is in the range of ca. 0.5-5.3 nm, i. e., which can be as thin as only two layers of graphite. The average diameter of the CEINPs is about 24. 7 nm. The total content of Fe element in the product B is 77.0 wt%.

Results showed that the MODIS alpine grassland fPAR product, examined by using DCRP, and traditional in situ fPAR observation had a significant relationship at the spatial and temporal scales. The decadal MODIS fPAR trend analysis showed that, average growing season fPAR increased by 1.2 × 10^-4 per year and in total increased 0.86% from 2002 to 2011 in alpine grassland, when most of the fPAR increments occurred in southeast and center of the Northern Tibetan Plateau, the alpine grassland tended to recover from degradation slightly. However, climatic factors have influenced the various alpine grassland vegetation fPAR over a period of 10 years; precipitation significantly affected the alpine meadow fPAR in the eastern region, whereas temperature considerably influenced the alpine desert steppe fPAR in the west region. These findings suggest that the regional heterogeneity in alpine grassland fPAR results from various environmental factors, except for vegetation characteristics, such as canopy structure and leaf area.展开更多

The gated decoupled high resolution ^13C NMR spectra revealed the presence of both saturated and unsaturated triacylglycerides. However, there is a higher percentage of unsaturation in AL seed oil. The peaks at 0.7 ppm to 0.9 ppm which correspond to the terminal methyl groups in the fatty acid and that at 1.2 ppm to 1.3 ppm are more intense and bigger in DO which show that it is more saturated than AD and AL oils. The results obtained by ^13C NMR and ^1H NMR are compared favorably with those obtained by gas chromatographic analysis.展开更多

It was found that the isoflavone glycoside bond was easily broken. The fragmentation occurred mostly on the C-ring, and the fragment ions of A^1,3+ produced by the RDA cracking will predict the hydroxylation replacement on A-ring or B-ring. In addition, four carbonyl groups on the C-ring were fragmented through neutral loss of 28 (-CO). A and B-rings primarily lose substituents which including a neutral losses of 32 (-CH3OH), 16 (-CH4), or 16 (-O), and 18 (-H2O). A-ring in the presence of adjacent hydroxylation, also easily made to be a neutral losses of 28 (-CO) or 18 (-H20). It is likewise common to see methoxy replaced with a neutral losses of 16 (-CH4) or 32 (-CHaOH) in B-ring, also the hydroxylation on benzene ring can occasionally results with the neutral loss of 28 (-CO).展开更多

Don. The 70% methanol extract was separated on an Agilent Eclipse Plus Cl8 column (1.8μm, 150 mm×2.1 mm), and eluted with a gradient of methanol-acetonitrile-water containing 0.1% formic acid at a flow rate of 0.25 mL/min. Constituents were identified by HRMS in the negative ion mode using both full scan and two-stage threshold-triggered mass modes. A total of 56 compounds, including 20 free flavonoids, 20 flavonoid O-glycosides, 2 flavonoid C-glycosides, 4 phenylethanoid glycosides, and 10 phenolic compounds were identified by analyzing their high resolution mass spectral data. Among them, 8 flavonoids and 2 phenylethanoid glycosides were unambiguously identified by comparing with reference standards. This study demonstrates that hybrid quadrupole-orbitrap mass spectrometry is a powerful tool in structural identification of unknown compounds in comolicated herbal extracts.展开更多

文摘The fragmentation behavior of isoflavones was studied using electrospray ionization-ion trap-time of flight mass spectrometry (ESI-IT-TOF-MSn). It was found that the isoflavone glycoside bond was easily broken. The fragmentation occurred mostly on the C-ring, and the fragment ions of A^1,3+ produced by the RDA cracking will predict the hydroxylation replacement on A-ring or B-ring. In addition, four carbonyl groups on the C-ring were fragmented through neutral loss of 28 (-CO). A and B-rings primarily lose substituents which including a neutral losses of 32 (-CH3OH), 16 (-CH4), or 16 (-O), and 18 (-H2O). A-ring in the presence of adjacent hydroxylation, also easily made to be a neutral losses of 28 (-CO) or 18 (-H20). It is likewise common to see methoxy replaced with a neutral losses of 16 (-CH4) or 32 (-CHaOH) in B-ring, also the hydroxylation on benzene ring can occasionally results with the neutral loss of 28 (-CO).

文摘An ultra high performance liquid chromatography coupled with hybrid quadrupole-orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-quadrupole-orbitrap MS) method was developed to systematically analyze chemical constituents of Scutellaria barbata D. Don. The 70% methanol extract was separated on an Agilent Eclipse Plus Cl8 column (1.8μm, 150 mm×2.1 mm), and eluted with a gradient of methanol-acetonitrile-water containing 0.1% formic acid at a flow rate of 0.25 mL/min. Constituents were identified by HRMS in the negative ion mode using both full scan and two-stage threshold-triggered mass modes. A total of 56 compounds, including 20 free flavonoids, 20 flavonoid O-glycosides, 2 flavonoid C-glycosides, 4 phenylethanoid glycosides, and 10 phenolic compounds were identified by analyzing their high resolution mass spectral data. Among them, 8 flavonoids and 2 phenylethanoid glycosides were unambiguously identified by comparing with reference standards. This study demonstrates that hybrid quadrupole-orbitrap mass spectrometry is a powerful tool in structural identification of unknown compounds in comolicated herbal extracts.
