Decorative near-infrared transmission filters featuring high-efficiency and angular-insensitivity employing 1D photonic crystals

We present a new scheme for visibly-opaque but near-infrared-transmitting filters involving 7 layers based on one-dimensional ternary photonic crystals, with capabilities in reaching nearly 100% transmission efficiency in the near-infrared region. Different decorative reflection colors can be created by adding additional three layers while maintaining the near-infrared transmission performance. In addition, our proposed structural colors show great angular insensitivity up to ±60° for both transverse electric and transverse magnetic polarizations, which are highly desired in various fields. The facile strategy described here involves a simple deposition method for the fabrication, thereby having great potential in diverse applications such as image sensors, anti-counterfeit tag, and optical measurement systems.

     

海洋非成岩天然气水合物原位快速制备实验及评价

我国的海洋天然气水合物（以下简称水合物）资源主要分布在沿海大陆架水深介于300～3 000 m的深水区，具有弱胶结、非成岩的特征，为了测试和研究该类型水合物必须原位、大量、快速制备样品，而目前常用的搅拌法、喷淋法、鼓泡法等制备技术却存在着生成速度慢、储气密度低等问题。为此，自主设计、研制了1 062 L非成岩水合物快速制备釜，针对我国南海非成岩水合物的物性特征，开展了搅拌法、鼓泡法、喷淋法单一制备方法及“三合一”法（上述3种方法相结合）水合物制备实验，测试了实验过程中温度、压力、电阻率及反应时间等数据，分析比较了几种不同制备方法的水合物生成情况与制备效率。实验结果表明：①搅拌法、鼓泡法、喷淋法制备水合物过程中，生成的水合物均缓慢增加并逐渐铺满整个液面；②搅拌法制备过程中可以观测到明显的诱导期，而喷淋法、鼓泡法及“三合一”法却无明显的诱导期；③单一制备方法及“三合一”法制备水合物过程中，电阻率均随反应时间的增加而增加，其变化趋势亦与水合物制备速率基本一致；④“三合一”法的制备周期明显短于单一制备方法（搅拌法、喷淋法、鼓泡法单一方法的制备时间分别约为“三合一”法的5.14倍、3.59倍、3.16倍）。结论认为，所研制的1 062 L水合物快速制备釜能够实现海洋非成岩水合物样品的原位、快速制备；较之于单一制备方法，“三合一”法大大提高了水合物的制备效率。     

Influence of lanthanum on enhancement of mechanical and electrical properties of Cu-Al_2O_3 composites

Two kinds of Cu-Al_2O_3 composites(with and without La) were prepared via mechanical alloying-spark plasma sintering(MA-SPS) method. Microstructure, mechanical properties and electrical resistivity were investigated systematically using metallography, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, mechanical and electrical properties testing. The results indicate that an appropriate amount of La can homogenize the distribution of Al_2O_3. As such, yield strength, ultimate tensile strength and elongation of Cu-Al_2O_3-La are greatly increased. Some semi-coherent interface between Cu and Al_2O_3 is found, which means a low interface energy. The grain shape of Cu changes to irregular band with the addition of La. This change results in a density decrease of grain boundary and reduces electrical resistance. Lanthanum may exist in the form of La_2O_3.

石墨烯改性涂层防护性能研究

为减少团聚，提高石墨烯在涂层中的分散性，研究采用纳米分散技术预先制备了石墨烯分散液，再将其分散至环氧树脂中获得石墨烯改性复合涂层。通过对石墨烯含量为 0、0.3%、0.6%的复合涂层进行盐水浸泡、盐雾、阴极剥离实验及电化学性能测试，证明石墨烯的加入显著增强了涂层的防护性能。石墨烯复合涂层在 3.5%盐水中浸泡 1 008 h后，涂层低频阻抗仍大于 106 Ω·cm²比未添加石墨烯的涂层提高了 3个数量级，且盐雾实验 6 000 h后涂层表面仍保持完好；含 0.6%石墨烯，的涂层耐蚀行为劣于石墨烯含量为 0.3%的涂层。     

Isolation,purification, and antioxidant activities of polysaccharides from Ziziphus Jujuba cv. Muzao

In the present study, crude polysaccharides from Ziziphus Jujuba cv. Muzao were isolated and purified using DEAE cellulose-52 and Sephadex G-100 size-exclusion chromatography; four fractions were collected, namely GZMP-1, GZMP-2, GZMP-3, and GZMP-4. The molecular weights of these four fractions were measured to be 111.2, 95.1, 84.2, and 571.4 kDa, respectively, using high-performance gel permeation chromatography. Gas chromatography analysis of the monosaccharide composition confirmed that GZMP-1 was composed of rhamnose, arabinose, glucose, and galactose. Rhamnose, arabinose, and galactose were the main components present in GZMP-2 and GZMP-3, whereas GZMP-4 was composed of only rhamnose and arabinose. Scanning electron microscopy showed relatively smooth surfaces for GZMP-1 and GZMP-4, whereas GZMP-2 and GZMP-3 had more folds on their surfaces. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analyses indicated that GZMP-1 and ZMP mainly had α-type glycosidic linkages. The in vitro antioxidant activities of the polysaccharides revealed that jujube polysaccharides exhibit remarkable antioxidant activity, and can scavenge DPPH radical and OH radical in a concentration-dependent manner. The results of this work suggest that polysaccharides from Z. Jujuba cv. Muzao have potential to be used as functional food and in the development of natural antioxidant drug carriers.     

不同抗疟药物对红内期恶性疟原虫3D7线粒体呼吸的影响

目的：利用Seahorse XFe96分析仪对6大类别共计13种国际一线抗疟药物作用于红内期恶性疟原虫3D7（Plasmodium falciparum 3D7）线粒体电子传递链（electron transport chain, ETC）进行评价。方法：采用三天抑制法和SYBR Green I荧光分析法对体外药物作用于P. falciparum 3D7的抗疟活性进行评价，采用磁珠分选技术对P. falciparum 3D7虫株进行分离纯化，采用Seahorse XF分析系统的线粒体耗氧率OCR值（Oxygen Consumption Rate）对P. falciparum 3D7线粒体不同时刻的生物能进行表征，进而考察不同抗疟药物对红内期恶性疟原虫线粒体有氧呼吸的影响。结果：流式检测结果显示，成功富集到虫期较为一致的滋养体期疟原虫。体外抗疟活性评价结果显示，除双胍类抗疟药物氯胍（proguanil, Pro）外，其余12种抗疟药物对P. falciparum 3D7的药效均为nmol/L级别。线粒体有氧呼吸考察的结果显示，双氢青蒿素（dihydroartemisinin, DHA）和氯喹（chloroquine, CQ）的5种浓度剂量（0.4、1、5、10、50×IC50）对P. falciparum 3D7线粒体有氧呼吸均无明显影响。13种常用抗疟药物在5×IC50浓度剂量下，青蒿素（artemisinin, ART）、蒿乙醚（arteether, ARE）和蒿甲醚（artemether, ARM）均能显著提高线粒体最大呼吸；奎宁（quinine, QN）和Pro仅对P. falciparum 3D7线粒体ETC的氧化磷酸化具有解偶联作用，未完全破坏线粒体ETC的功能；阿托伐醌（atovaquone, Ato）对P. falciparum 3D7线粒体有氧呼吸有明显的抑制作用，显著降低线粒体最大呼吸和质子的泄漏，完全破坏了线粒体ETC的功能；其余抗疟药物对P. falciparum 3D7线粒体有氧呼吸均无明显影响。 结论：13种国际一线抗疟药物中大多数抗疟药物的靶标并非是疟原虫线粒体有氧呼吸的ETC通路。
