The lamellar morphological structure was observed in the crystallized films. The thickness of lamellae is about 300A, being independent of the crystalline temperature. But the size and density of lamellae were dependent on the crystallization temperature. If the molten film was sheared during the crystallzation process the oriented lamellae grew with their long axes perpendicular to the direction of shear and the chain direction was normal to the lamellar surface.展开更多

The nanocomposites were prepared by doping rare earth ions Dy^3+ or Sin^3+ into layer-structured 10,12-pentacosadiynoic acid (PCDA) nanopar- ticles to obtain PCDA/rare earth ions nanocomposites (PCDA-RE) and subsequently annealing PCDA-RE at the temperature slightly higher than the melting point of pure PCDA crystals, followed by topochemically polymerizing the annealed PCDA-RE. The polymerized PCDA-RE, i.e. poly(10,12-pentacosadiynoic acid)/rare earth ions nanocomposites (PDARE: PDA-Dy or PDA-Sm), are largely reversible (PDA-Sm) or even completely reversible (PDA-Dy) in the thermochromism, while, without the doping, pure PDA is completely irreversible. It is confirmed that, PDA-RE are also layer-structured with a d-spacing of 5.4 nm, higher than the d-spacing of pure PDA (4.7 nm). In PDA-RE, the rare earth ions form a layer in-between and interact strongly with the PDA bilayers, being responsible for the high degree or even the complete reversibility. This is the first example to make PDA completely reversible through the doping of rare earth ions; the annealing process is essential for the complete reversibility since it removes any defects in the structure.展开更多

The as-obtained PDA NPs are of high purity because no any initiator, catalyst or stabilizer was used during the whole process. The stabilizer-free PDA NPs are stable in the aqueous suspension. Due to the high purity and stability, the PDA NPs can respond sensitively and selectively to lysine and arginine among 18 kinds of water soluble natural amino acids; without the competitive interaction from the stabilizer, the sensitivity was enhanced.展开更多

The second molecular hyperpolarizability γ(-ω,ω,-ω,ω)of the two samples was investigated by antiresonant ring interferometric nonlinear spectroscopic (ARINS) technique using femtosecond modelocked Ti:sapphire laser in the spectral range of 720 nm - 820 nm. The observed spectral dispersion of γ has been explained in the framework of three-essential states model involving the ground state, a one-photon excited state and a two-photon excited state. The observed optical nonlinearity has been correlated with the electronic structure of the two samples. The energy of two-photon state, transition dipole moments and line width of the transitions have been estimated. Our studies show that the arrangement of polymer chains in polydiacetylene nanocrystals is more favorable for higher nonlinearity.展开更多
