The effects of temperature gradient and quadratic temperature change on the reflectivity spectrum of fiber Braggs grating and the transmission spectrum of long period fiber grating were investigated using the numerical simulation, and the dependence relationships of the central wavelength shift, the full-width-athalf-maximum, and the peak intensity upon temperature gradient were also obtained. These relationships may be used to design a novel fiber optical sensor which can simultaneously measure the temperature and temperature gradient.展开更多

And the nanoparticles were characterized by TEM, FT-IR and hysteresis loop. The results show that the nanoparticles are spherical and almost superparamagnetic. The laccase was immobilized on nanoparticles by adsorption and subsequently by cross-linking with glutaraldehyde. The immobilization conditions and charac-terizations of the immobilized laccase were investigated. The optimal immobilization conditions were as follows: 10 mL of phosphate buffer (0.1 M, pH 7.0) containing 50 mg of magnetic chitosan nanoparticles, 1.0 mg·mL-1 of laccase and 1% (v/v) glutaraldehyde, immobilization temperature of 4 ℃ and immobilization time of 4 h. The immobilized laccase exhibited an appreciable catalytic capability (480 units·g-1 support) and had good storage stability and operation stability. The Km of immobilized and free laccase for ABTS were 140.6 and 31.1 μM in phosphate buffer (0.1 M, pH 3.0) at 37 ℃, respectively. The immobilized laccase is a good candidate for the research and development of biosensors based on laccase catalysis.展开更多

CS2 is insoluble in water and could form metastable oil droplets in the water at a moderate temperature. The oil droplets formed chains in the circumvolving water. CdS crystals grew and mineralized on the surfaces of the CS2 droplet chains, forming CdS shells around the unreacted CS2 cores. After the surrounding temperature was raised above the boiling point of CS2, the unreacted CS2 cores vaporized, leaving the CdS shelled hollow structures. The CdS hollow structures were characterized by using a transmission electron microscope, an X-ray diffractometer, a UV-Visible spectrophotometer and a fluorescence spectrophotometer. The CdS hollow structures were mainly tubes with closed ends. The exterior diameter and the interior diameter of tubes were about 50 nm and about 15 nm, respectively. Compared with the absorption onset wavelength of the bulk CdS, the CdS hollow structures exhibited a blue shift of about 57 nm. While excited at 213 nm, the CdS hollow structures emitted greenish blue light centered at 470 nm.展开更多
Two novel mixed-ligand complexes, [M(phen)2(ans)2]·H2O (M = Cd(Ⅱ) 1, Zn(Ⅱ) 2; phen is 1, 10-phenanthroline, and ans is 4-aminonaphthalene-1-sulfonate), were obtained from the reaction of 1, 10-phenant...Two novel mixed-ligand complexes, [M(phen)2(ans)2]·H2O (M = Cd(Ⅱ) 1, Zn(Ⅱ) 2; phen is 1, 10-phenanthroline, and ans is 4-aminonaphthalene-1-sulfonate), were obtained from the reaction of 1, 10-phenanthroline, sodium 4-aminonaphthalene-1-sulfonate tetrahydrate and acetate in mixed solvents. Interaction of the complexes with calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) were investigated using UV-vis absorption spectra, luminescence titrations, steady-state emission quenching by [Fe(CN)6]4 , DNA competitive binding with ethidium bromide (EB) and viscosity measurements. The experimental results indicate that there exist two interaction modes between the complexes and DNA, namely the electrostatic interaction and intercalation, with the binding constants of 1.82 × 10^5 M-1 for 1 and 4.78 ×10^4 M^- 1 for 2 in buffer of 50 mM NaCl and 5 mM Tris-HCI (pH 7.0).展开更多

It was confirmed that the CdS colloidal particles had a nanoscale size and quantum confinement effect adopting transmission electron microscopy and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy. The addition of CdS nanoparticles as a photosensitizer in PVK will be significant enhancement of photoconductivity because of the high photocharge generation quantum efficiency and high charge transport to conducting polymer. The polymer composite film exhibited PR effect with a method of two-beam coupling experiment. And an asymmetric two. beam coupling gain of 45.8 cm^-1 without applied electric filed is obtained at 632.8 nm wavelength.展开更多
