高Q值光学微球腔的温度系数研究

光学微球谐振腔由于其具有超高的Q值及极小的模式体积等优点,在高灵敏度传感和光通信等方面得到了广泛的研究。测试了未封装和封装后微球腔谐振波长随温度的变化,实验结果表明随温度增大,谐振波长线性红移,且线性度高。二者温度系数不同,未封装时为25.6 pm/℃,封装后为4.4 pm/℃,主要原因为紫外胶的负热光系数所致。理论分析了紫外胶的热光效应,通过控制紫外胶厚度可以改变光在紫外胶中的比例,从而调节温度系数。当光在紫外胶中比例为0.1135时,温度系数变为0,可以抑制温度漂移,实现了温度补偿;该比例继续增大,温度灵敏度提高。低温漂、高灵敏度、微型化拓宽了回音壁模式(WGM)传感器的应用潜力。     

Application of infrared thermography and extension recognize method to intelligent fault diagnosis of distribution panels

Distribution panels are an important piece of equipment in power systems. Maintaining a loading panel and ensuring security are not easy because the power supply cannot be interrupted in high‐tech factories. Distribution panels need fully functional condition monitoring and fault diagnosis systems to prevent accidents and reduce maintenance costs. In this paper, a new scheme is proposed to design an auto‐diagnosis tool for electrical distribution panels using infrared thermography to build diagnostic features using the matter‐element model. The paper then presents an extension recognize method (ERM) based on extension theory to diagnose the abnormality element by using degrees of correlation between the tested pattern and the matter‐element models that have been built up. Test results show that the proposed method can not only recognize the main defect element of the tested panel but also detect useful information for future trends and multi‐defect analysis by the correlation indexes. This new approach merits more attention as a tool to be used in the defect recognition problems of distribution panels, especially in high‐tech factories in Taiwan. © 2015 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.

The formation of the S‐shaped edge‐on lamellae on the thin porous polylactic acid membrane via phase separation induced by water microdroplets

Biodegradable polymers have received increased attention due to their potential application in the medicine and food industries; in particular, poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a primary biopolymer because of its excellent biocompatibility and absorbability features. In this study, a porous PLA membrane was fabricated by phase separation using water microdroplets produced by an ultrasonic atomizer as a coagulation bath. The formation of S‐type clusters was attributed to the slow exchange rate between solvent and coagulant, which provided time for the movement of polymer molecules. The effect of preparation conditions on the structure of S‐type clusters, including polymer concentration in solution and ambient temperature was investigated. The PLA porous membrane prepared from water micro‐droplets with different morphology compared with the sample fabricated from distilled water has potential application in fields of tissue engineering and artificial organ generation. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Preparation of antimicrobial polycarboxybetaine‐based hydrogels for studies of drug loading and release

A series of cationic poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM)‐g‐poly(carboxybetaine ester) (PCBMAE) hydrogels were prepared by reversible addition–fragmentation chain‐transfer polymerization with PCBMAE precursors reacting with N‐isopropyl acrylamide in the presence of N,N′‐methylene bisacrylamide. These hydrogels exhibited excellent antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and could switch to nontoxic zwitterionic hydrogels after hydrolysis. Nonionic tetracycline hydrochloride (TCHC) and anionic sodium salicylate (SA) were selected to evaluate the loading capacities and release kinetics of the cationic hydrogels. We found that the loading efficiencies of TCHC in the PNIPAM‐g‐PCBMAE hydrogels were approximately twice as high as those of SA. However, the cumulative release amount of TCHC was lower than that of SA from the corresponding cationic hydrogel at 37°C. In addition, the PNIPAM‐g‐PCBMAE hydrogels exhibited accelerated release rates of both TCHC and SA with increasing content of (2‐carboxymethyl)?3‐acryloxyethyldimethylammonium chloride methyl ester. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and drug‐release studies of low‐fouling zwitterionic hydrogels with enhanced mechanical strength

Reversible addition–fragmentation chain‐transfer polymerization was introduced to prepare a series of zwitterionic poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate)‐g‐poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate) (PSBMA) hydrogels (HSGs) with different monomer feed ratios. Compared with PSBMA hydrogels, these hydrogels exhibited enhanced mechanical strengths. Then, the HSGs were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and swelling measurements. We found that the equilibrium swelling ratios, mechanical strengths, and drug‐release behaviors were significantly affected by the feed ratios of the gels. The hydrophilic tetracycline hydrochloride release results suggest that the hydrophilic drug release from the HSGs could be prolonged by the variation of the hydroxyethyl methacrylate amount in the gel networks. The bovine serum albumin adsorption data showed that the zwitterionic HSG with 18.2 wt % sulfobetaine methacrylate exhibited good protein‐resistance properties. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.

Phase equilibria and structural properties of thiophene/[Bmim][BF4]: A molecular insight from monte carlo simulations

The phase equilibria of thiophene in 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Bmim][BF₄]) is calculated by Monte Carlo simulation in Gibbs ensemble using a united atom force field. The liquid density of studied ionic liquid and the vapor pressure of thiophene in [Bmim][BF₄] were compared with corresponding experimental data reported in the literature, and a good agreement was obtained. In order to describe the solubility of thiophene in this ionic liquid, we have calculated the radial distribution functions and spatial distribution functions of thiophene/IL mixtures to study the interaction of thiophene with cations and anions of [Bmim][BF₄] in the liquid phase. The local composition concept in fluid was also examined to give further insight into the liquid structure. The results show that thiophene is well organized around the terminal carbon atom of the butyl or methyl chain attached to the imidazolium ring of cations and tends to adopt a symmetrically distribution on the anions. © 2014 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 60: 3916–3924, 2014     

An orange-emitting phosphor BaSrGa4O8:Bi3+,K+ with unique one-dimensional chain structure for high index color WLEDs

It has been an urgent need for developing a new bright long-wave emitting phosphor to improve the color rendering index (CRI) of white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs). Here, based on the concept of oxygen vacancy-induced long-wave emission by Bi³⁺ doping, we selected BaSrGa₄O₈ as the matrix, which has a low-dimensional chain structure that can produce enough oxygen vacancies. After the introduction of Bi³⁺, orange emission was successfully achieved. To further improve the luminescence efficiency, the system of BaSrGa₄O₈:Bi³⁺,K⁺ was designed. Interestingly, although significant emission enhancement was obtained, the material showed reduced absorption with increased oxygen vacancies. More detailed experimental evidences confirm that oxygen vacancies can activate Bi³⁺ to achieve long-wave emission. Our results provide a new way to design Bi³⁺-based long-wave emitting phosphors with low-dimensional crystal structure. Finally, a WLED device containing BaSrGa₄O₈:Bi³⁺,K⁺ was fabricated and exhibited an enhanced CRI, which shows a promising application in WLEDs.     

镁钙砂碳酸化反应活化能与抗水化性能的研究

采用TG—DTG技术,用多重升温速率方法,计算了镁钙砂颗粒表面碳酸化和水化碳酸化反应过程的表观活化能Ea,并对经碳酸化和水化碳酸化表面改性后的镁钙砂进行了抗水化性能测定。结果表明:镁钙砂水化碳酸化表观反应活化能Ea从单纯碳酸化时的189 kJ.mol-1降至155 kJ.mol-1;而经水化碳酸化表面改性后的镁钙砂的水化增重率则从单纯碳酸化时的0.95%降至0.43%。即镁钙砂碳酸化反应过程中水蒸气的引入提高了镁钙砂颗粒表面的反应活性,使其因碳酸化反应程度提高而抗水化能力增强。
