Because of owning 4f electron characteristics and alternation valence, Ce treatment presented the highest enhancement in light absorption, energy transfer from LHC Ⅱ to PS Ⅱ, excitation energy distribution from PS Ⅰ to PS Ⅱ, and fluorescence quantum yield around 680 nm. Compared with Ce treatment, Nd treatment resulted in relatively lower enhancement in these physiological indices, as Nd did not have alternation valence. La treatment presented the lowest enhancement, as La did not have either 4f electron or alternation valence. The increase in activities of whole chain electron transport, PS ⅡDCPIP photoreduction, and oxygen evolution of chloroplasts was of the following order: Ce〉Nd 〉La〉 control. However, the photoreduction activities of spinach PS I almost did not change with La, Ce, or Nd treatments. The results suggested that 4f electron characteristics and alternation valence of rare earths had a close relationship with photosynthesis improvement.展开更多

The marked intensification of the band at low octylphenol poly(ethyleneglycol)ether concentration is found normally at 575 nm, and its resolution into three sharp bands centering at 572, 580 and 584 nm. The absorbances of the absorption maxima are 3.5 (at 572 nm), 7.2 (at 580 nm) and 10.2 (at 584 nm) times greater than that of the chloride.展开更多

It is concluded from the calculated results that the energy levels of the F colour centre are located in the forbidden band. The optical transition energy from the ground state to the excited state for the F colour centre is about 5.12 eV, which corresponds to the 242-nm absorption band. These calculated results can explain the origin of the absorption bands.展开更多

A direct fluorine abstraction mechanism was revealed, and the related thermochemistry data were determined. The electron-transfer reactivity of the reaction was analyzed using the two-state model, and a strongly avoided crossing behavior on the transition state region was shown. The present results support the reaction mechanism inferred from early experimental data and the related thermochemistry data can provide a guide for further experimental researches.展开更多

We first derive an analytical form of transition amplitude for describing the strong-field photodetachment of F- ions. The integration over time in transition amplitude can be performed using the numerical integration method or the saddle-point (SP) method of Shearer et al. [Phys. Rev. A 88 (2013) 033415]. The validity of the SP method is carefully examined by comparing the energy spectra and photoelectron angular distributions (PADs) with those obtained from the numerical integration method. By considering the volume effect of a focused laser beam, both the energy spectra and the low-energy PADs calculated by the numerical integration method agree very well with the experimental results.展开更多
