A novel in-situ spectroelectrochemical technique with probe beam deflection: For study of the ion exchange between films on electrode surface and solutions

A novel in-situ spectroelectrochemical technique, the combination of probe beam deflection (PBD) with cyclic voltammetry (CV), was used to study the ion exchange process of prussian blue(PB) modified film electrode in contact with various electrolyte solutions. The ion exchange mechanism was verified as following: (K2Fe2+FeII)(CN)(6) -e(-)-k(+)reversible arrow +e(-)+k(+) (KFe3+FeII)(CN)(6) -ke(-)-xk(+)reversible arrow +xe(-)+kk(+) [(Fe3+FeIII)(CN)(6)](x)[(KFe3+FeII)(CN)(6)](1-x) where on reduction PB film in contact with an acidic KCl electrolyte, it was confirmed that protons enter into the PB film before K+ cations.

Supermedia User Interface for Scanning Probe Microscopy

当利用扫描隧道显微镜(SPM)作为一种纳米操作工具时,由于其缺乏实时的传感器信息反馈,而大大阻碍了它的广泛应用.利用超媒体人机交互接口可以解决这个问题.在纳米操作过程中,超媒体接口不但可以为操作者提供可实时更新的仿真操作场景,还可以通过力反馈手柄让操作者实时地感受到探针受到的三维纳米操作力.除此之外,操作者还可以通过该手柄直接控制探针的三维运动.最后在聚碳酸酯上进行了超媒体人机接口的纳米刻画实验.实验结果验证了该系统的有效性和效率.

Xenon probe for detecting the microporous structure of nanosized HZSM-5 zeolite

The secondary pores in the nanosized HZSM-5 zeolite have been observed for the first time via Xe-129 NMR spectroscopy using xenon as a probe; the location of non-framework Al can also be identified.

A new europium chelate-based phosphorescence probe specific for singlet oxygen

The first Eu3+ chelate-based phosphorescence probe specific for singlet oxygen has been designed, synthesized and characterized. The probe is highly sensitive, selective and water soluble for time-resolved luminescence detection of singlet oxygen with a detection limit of 2.8 nM.
