The enhancement factors of the excitation and the relaxation processes are deduced. The excitation can be enhanced more than 100 times at 315 nm. The enhancement factor of the emission can reach up to 9 at a center wavelength of 400 nm.展开更多

It is suggested that a density turning point （DTP） of a photoionized system may be viewed as the critical point where the photoionization properties of atoms in a real system may have a notable change. The results show that the present theoretical photoionization cross-sections are in good agreement with the experimental results of a silver crystal both in structure and in magnitude.展开更多

SEM images show that the silver nanoshells may be formed at 130 ℃ and deformed at 180 ℃ in hot inert flowing liquid. XRD indicates the formation of cubic structure pure silver with high crystallinity. Also, EDX and UV diffuse reflection spectrum analyses were conducted to characterize the as-prepared samples.展开更多
