Mg0.5NixZn0.5-xFe2O4 spinel as a sustainable magnetic nano-photocatalyst with dopant driven band shifting and reduced recombination for visible and solar degradation of Reactive Blue-19

Focussing on visible light active ferrites for high performance removal of noxious pollutants, we report the synthesis of Mg_0.5Ni_xZn_0.5-xFe₂O₄ (x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, & 0.5) ferrite nanoparticle for degradation of reactive blue-19 (RB-19). Lattice parameters calculated using intense X-ray diffraction (XRD) peaks and Nelson-Riley plots (N-R plot) are in well agreement with each other. The sample Mg_0.5Ni_0.4Zn_0.1Fe₂O₄ (M5N4) exhibits best performance with 99.5% RB-19 degradation in 90 min under visible light. Photoluminescence (PL) results confirm that recombination of charge carriers is highly reduced in the photocatalyst. Scavenging experiments suggest that O₂⁻ radicals were the dominant species responsible for photocatalytic performance. The photocatalytic mechanism was explained in terms of dopant driven shifting of conduction bands and valence bands (calculated by Mott-Schottky plots). The thermodynamic probability of radical generation along with role of redox cycles of metal ions has been discussed in the mechanism. The dye degradation was ascertained by detection of intermediates via mass spectrometry analysis and a possible degradation route was also predicted. The findings in this work provide intriguing opportunities to modify the electronic band structure of spinel ferrites for visible and solar light photocatalytic activity for environmental detoxification.

基于普吕克直线的多线结构光视觉传感器标定方法

针对多线结构光系统的快速标定,提出了一种基于普吕克直线的标定方法。传统的线结构光标定方法大多以单点的形式进行提取和坐标系转换,从而获得平面方程。然而单点数量较多会导致操作复杂,不适用于多线结构光的标定。为了解决这个问题,提出了一种新的标定方法,该方法在标定过程中全部采用普吕克矩阵的形式,而不是直接使用点特征。该方法有利于在摄像机坐标系下快速准确地获得光平面方程。同时设计了一种与该方法相对应的用于标定多线结构光的平面标定靶标。为了将一般直线转换为普吕克直线,将图像平面维度延展,定义了一个新的图像空间。为了对普吕克直线的坐标系进行转换,重新表达了基于普吕克直线的透视投影模型。基于普吕克空间中直线与平面的性质,对多条结构光线的普吕克矩阵进行合并即可高效地构造出线性的矩阵方程,从而进一步拟合出结构光平面方程。实验验证了所提方法并证明了校准精度的显著提高,当测试距离为1.8 m时,测量得到的三维点的RMS误差在0.08 mm之内。

Multisensor data fusion via Gaussian process models for dimensional and geometric verification

An increasing amount of commercial measurement instruments implementing a wide range of measurement technologies is rapidly becoming available for dimensional and geometric verification. Multiple solutions are often acquired within the shop-floor with the aim of providing alternatives to cover a wider array of measurement needs, thus overcoming the limitations of individual instruments and technologies.In such scenarios, multisensor data fusion aims at going one step further by seeking original and different ways to analyze and combine multiple measurement datasets taken from the same measurand, in order to produce synergistic effects and ultimately obtain overall better measurement results.In this work an original approach to multisensor data fusion is presented, based on the development of Gaussian process models (the technique also known as kriging), starting from point sets acquired from multiple instruments. The approach is illustrated and validated through the application to a simulated test case and two real-life industrial metrology scenarios involving structured light scanners and coordinate measurement machines.The results show that not only the proposed approach allows for obtaining final measurement results whose metrological quality transcends that of the original single-sensor datasets, but also it allows to better characterize metrological performance and potential sources of measurement error originated from within each individual sensor.     

A highly transparent and thermally stable copolymer of 1‐adamantyl methacrylate and styrene

Thermal and optical properties of copolymers of 1‐adamantyl methacrylate (AdMA) and styrene (St) prepared by free radical polymerization in the bulk are investigated. The copolymer forms an azeotrope when the composition is AdMA/St = 55/45 mol%. The glass transition temperature and decomposition temperature of the azeotropic copolymer are 170 and ca 340 °C, respectively. The refractive index increases nonlinearly with St content from 1.522 to 1.591. The light scattering loss at 633 nm is 28.1 dB km^?1, which is less than half of that of polystyrene. The total optical loss including molecular vibrational absorption, which is evaluated using a copolymer‐based optical fiber, is 292–645 dB km^?1 at 500–700 nm. These values correspond to transmittances of 86–93% for a 1 m optical path length. © 2014 Society of Chemical Industry     

Preparation and physical properties of the layered niobate Cu0.5Nb3O8: Application to photocatalytic hydrogen evolution

The new layered niobate Cu_0.5Nb₃O₈ is synthesized by soft chemistry in aqueous electrolyte via Cu²⁺→H⁺ exchange between copper nitrate and HNb₃O₈·H₂O. The characterization of the exchanged product is made by means of thermal gravimetry, chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy. Thermal analysis shows a conversion to anhydrous compound above 500 °C. The oxide displays a semiconductor like behavior; the thermal variation of the conductivity shows that d electrons are strongly localized and the conduction is thermally activated with activation energy of 0.13 eV. The temperature dependence of the thermopower is indicative of an extrinsic conductivity; the electrons are dominant carriers in conformity with an anodic photocurrent. Indeed, the Mott–Schottky plot confirms n-type conduction from which a flat band potential of −0.82 V_SCE, an electronic density of 8.72×10¹⁹ m⁻³ and a depletion width of 4.4 nm are determined. The upper valence band, located at ~5.8 eV below vacuum is made up predominantly of Cu²⁺: 3d with a small admixture of O²⁻: 2p orbitals whereas the conduction band consists of empty Nb⁵⁺: 5s level. The energy band diagram shows the feasibility of the oxide for the photocatalytic hydrogen production upon visible light (29 mW cm⁻²) with a rate evolution of 0.31 mL g⁻¹ min⁻¹.
