The surface energy of the polymer film is independent of the polymerization conditions. No addition reaction has taken place in the carbonyl group of butylaldehyde in the plasma condition. The result of the wettability measurements showed that the polymer film is generally hydrophobic and the surface energy of the film is about 41 dyn/cm, in which the dispersion force contribution is the majority. The electron diffraction proved that some crystal substance, even the single crystals were present in the polymer. X-ray diffraction also proved the presence of crystal and showed about 15% crystaUinity fraction.展开更多

Doping film with In impurity leads to quenching of the doublet band, while further thermal treatment causes activation of the intrinsic band, the half-width and the blue shift of the red edge of which correlates with the maximum value of anomalously high photovoltage generated by the film.展开更多

It was shownthat the strength of the steels increases while the plasticity and toughness decrease as temperaturedrops. In the transitional area the toughness drops rapidly with temperature. Among the threestructural steels, Q390E steel has the best toughness and the lowest sensitivity.展开更多

The results of X-ray dif-fraction （XRD） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM） suggested that La15-xSmxFe2Ni76Mn5B2（x=0, 2, 4, 6） alloys had multiphase structure including the main LaNi5 phase, La3Ni13B2 phase and （Fe, Ni） phase. With the increasing substitution of Sm for La, the main phase structure of alloys did not change, while the unit cell volumes decreased, the cycle stability was improved and the maximum discharge capacity decreased, but the low temperature maximum discharge capacity of the same substitution alloy was gradually ap-proaching the maximum discharge capacity at room temperature, which showed that La15Fe77B8 hydrogen storage alloys of the partial substitution of Sm for La had better low-temperature dischargeability （LTD）. For the same substitution alloys, self-discharge charac-teristics and cycle stability at low temperature were better than that at room temperature. Furthermore, the high-rate dischargeability （HRD） and the exchange current densityI0 first increased and then decreased with the increasing of Sm content, whereas the hydro-gen diffusion coefficientD in alloy bulk decreased gradually, which indicated that appropriate substitution of Sm for La improved the electrochemical kinetics properties of the alloys. The HRD was mainly dominated by the charge-transfer rate on the alloy surface.展开更多

We call this block form method block RSMF （in brief, BRSMF） method. The new BRSMF method not only makes the reordering and symbolic decomposition become more effective, but also keeps the cost of numerical factorization from increasing and ensures the precision of solution very well. The theoretical analysis of the computation complexity about the new BRSMF method shows that the solution efficiency about the BRSMF method is higher than the original RSMF method. The numerical experiments also show that the new BRSMF method is more effective than the original RSMF method.展开更多

文摘A dominant intrinsic luminescence band, which is due to the surface potential barriers of crystalline grains, and an edge doublet, which arises as an LO-phonon repetition of the e-h band, has been revealed in the low-temperature photoluminescence spectra of fine-grained obliquely deposited films. Doping film with In impurity leads to quenching of the doublet band, while further thermal treatment causes activation of the intrinsic band, the half-width and the blue shift of the red edge of which correlates with the maximum value of anomalously high photovoltage generated by the film.
