硒对小麦和水稻种子萌发的生态毒理效应的比较研究

通过水培试验,比较研究了硒在不同浓度下对小麦和水稻种子萌发及幼苗生长的生态毒理效应。结果表明,硒在适量范围内(<0.5 mg.L-1)对种子萌发过程中各生理指标有促进作用,高剂量(>5 mg.L-1)时,对种子活力、α-淀粉酶及幼苗和根生长具有胁迫效应。硒对小麦种子发芽各指标抑制率大于水稻,硒对种子根伸长的抑制率远远大于发芽抑制率。对硒浓度与种子发芽各项指标抑制率相关分析,呈显著正相关。应用小麦根伸长抑制率可作为化学物质生态风险评价的一项生物标志物。

Design of quantum cascade microcavity lasers based on Q factor versus etching depth

The choice of the etching depth for semiconductor microcavities is a compromise between a high Q factor and a difficult technique in a practical fabricating process. In this paper, the influences of the etching depth on mode Q factors for mid-infrared quantum cascade microcylinder and microsquare lasers around 4.8 and 7.8 mu m are simulated by three-dimensional (3D) finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) techniques. For the microcylinder and the microsquare resonators, the mode Q factors of the whispering-gallery modes (WGMs) increase exponentially and linearly with the increase in the etching depth, respectively Furthermore, the mode Q factors of some higher order transverse WGMs may be larger than that of the fundamental transverse WGM in 3D microsquares. Based on the field distribution of the vertical multilayer slab waveguide and the mode Q factors versus the etching depth, the necessary etching depth is chosen at the position where the field amplitude is 1% of the peak value of the slab waveguide. In addition, the influences of sidewall roughness on the mode Q factors are simulated for microsquare resonators by 2D FDTD simulation. (C) 2009 Optical Society of America

Enhanced Proton Conduction in Polymer Electrolyte Membranes as Synthesized by Polymerization of Protic Ionic Liquid-Based Microemulsions

Proton-conducting membranes were prepared by polymerization of microemulsions consisting of surfactant-stabilized protic ionic liquid (PIL) nanodomains dispersed in a polymerizable oil, a mixture of styrene and acrylonitrile. The obtained PIL-based polymer composite membranes are transparent and flexible even though the resulting vinyl polymers are immiscible with PIL cores. This type of composite membranes have quite a good thermal stability, chemical stability, tunability, and good mechanical properties. Under nonhumidifying conditions, PIL-based membranes show a conductivity up to the order of 1 x 10(-1) S/cm at 160 degrees C, due to the well-connected PIL nanochannels preserved in the membrane. This type of polymer conducting membranes have potential application in high-temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells.

Sterilization system for air purifier by combining ultraviolet light emitting diodes with TiO2

BACKGROUND: Ultraviolet light emitting diodes (UV LEDs) were used as a light source in TiO2 photocatalysis because of their many advantages, such as, long life, safety, low pollution, etc. In this experiment, a light source panel was successfully fabricated with UV LEDs, the light intensities of which were relatively uniform.

PHOTOLUMINESCENCE STUDIES OF CHEMICAL ADSORPTION OF GAAS/ALXGA1-XAS MULTIQUANTUM-WELL SEMICONDUCTOR

Adsorption of ferrocene and p-methylnitrobenzene on a GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs multiquantum well semiconductor is characterized by the changes in the photoluminescent response in terms of the interactions of adsorbed molecules with surface states.

Role of the N

New measurement by CELSIUS-WASA Collaboration on the pp →pnπ+ reaction reveals clear evidence for the presence of the Roper resonance N∗(1440) which has been ignored in previous theoretical calculations. In this article, based on an effective Lagrangian approach and available knowledge on the Roper resonance, we investigate the role of the Roper resonance for the pp→pnπ+ reaction. It is found that the contribution from the Roper resonance N∗(1440) becomes significant for kinetic energy above 1.1 GeV, consistent with the new experimental observation. The t -channel σ-meson exchange is dominant for the production of the Roper resonance.

Pion Production in Heavy-ion Collisions in the 1 A GeV region

Within the framework of the improved isospin dependent quantum molecular dynamics (ImIQMD) model, the pion emission in heavy-ion collisions in the region 1AGeV is investigated systematically, in which the pion is considered to be mainly produced by the decay of resonances ∆(1232) and N∗(1440). The in-medium dependence and Coulomb effects of the pion production are included in the calculation. Total pion multiplicity and π−/π+ yields are calculated for the reaction 197Au+197Au in central collisions for selected Skyrme parameters SkP, SLy6,Ska, SIII and compared them with the measured data by the FOPI collaboration.
