Thermal mismatch stress in SiC whisker reinforced aluminium composite: new measurement method by X-ray diffraction

A new X-ray diffraction method for characterising thermal mismatch stress (TMS) in SiC_w–Al composite has been developed. The TMS and thermal mismatch strain (TMSN) in SiC whiskers are considered to be axis symmetrical, and can be calculated by measuring the lattice distortion of the whiskers. Not only the average TMS in whiskers and matrix can be obtained, but the TMS components along longitudinal and radial directions in the SiC whiskers can also be deduced. Experimental results indicate that the TMS in SiC whiskers is compressive, and tensile in the aluminium matrix. The TMS and TMSN components along the longitudinal direction in the SiC whiskers are greater than those along the radial direction for a SiC_w–Al composite quenched at 500°C.

Intense laser beam guiding in self-induced electron cavitation channel in underdense plasmas

In underdense plasmas, the transverse ponderomotive force of an intense laser beam with Gaussian transverse profile expels electrons radially, and it can lead to an electron cavitation. An improved cavitation model with charge conservation constraint is applied to the determination of the width of the electron cavity. The envelope equation for laser spot size derived by using source-dependent expansion method is extended to including the electron cavity. The condition for self-guiding is given and illuminated by an effective potential for the laser spot size. The effects of the laser power, plasma density and energy dissipation on the self-guiding condition are discussed.

星果草属（毛茛科）的系统学研究

星果草属至今仍包括两个种，它在毛茛科中的系统位置存在争议。本文针对该属的物种划分以及它在毛茛科中的系统位置所存在的问题，在云南东北和四川西南交界处，选择了5个居群（包括典型的近全缘型、裂叶型以及它们的中间类型），研究了16个形态性状的变异式样和规律;在扫描电镜下观察了它们的花粉形态，在光镜下统计了4个居群的花粉萌发孔类型;对这5个居群12个酶系统进行了等位酶分析，获得了19个位点的资料;对星果草属及相关的3个属进行了胚胎学研究，获得了星果草属较完整的胚胎学资料 和相关属的部分胚胎学特征。综合上述研究结果和前人的研究资料，对星果草属的形态变异、居群分化、种类划分和它的系统位置进行了分析和讨论，结果如下： l.形态上出现了中间类型是该属存在物种划分问题的主要原因。作者通过形态性状的分析发现，以前作为该属现存两个种的鉴别性状（叶形、叶片大小、植株高矮和叶柄被毛与否）为不稳定的性状，在居群内或居群间呈现连续变异，不能作为分种的鉴别性状;我们考察了根、花部器官的性状以后也未发现它们存在明显间断的性状。 2.居群水平的孢粉学研究表明，三种萌发孔类型（散孔型、散沟型以及它们的中间类型）出现在同一居群内，说明该性状在星果草属的种类划分中具有有限的系统学意义。值得提出的是萌发孔类型在不同居群中出现的频率不同，这种频率与叶形是相关的：叶片裂得越深，散孔类型的花粉所占的比例越大;反之，叶片裂得越浅，散沟类型的花粉所占的比例越大。 3.通过对这5个居群的细胞学研究，作者发现它们均为二倍体(2n=16)，染色体从大到小逐渐过渡，不具有二型性，为R-型染色体;绥江与马边居群（均为典型的裂叶型）的核型资料表明它们的第一对染色体短臂上具有随体。该结果不同于杨亲二等对裂叶型的核型报道。为了探讨星果草属的进化机制还有必要对它的细胞学做进一步研究。 4.等位酶资料表明居群间的基因分化系数达到53.4%，说明居群间遗传分化程度较高。星果草属植物以营养繁殖为主，种子传播主要以重力所介导，又是高山或亚高山分布的植物，这些因素都不利于居群间的基因交流，致使居群间发生很强的遗传分化;居群间的遗传一致度值变化范围为0. 723--0. 912，其中峨眉居群（大多为典型的近全缘型）与绥江居群（典型的裂叶型）的遗传一致度值(0. 845)，仅稍低于马边居群与绥江居群的遗传一致度值(0.912);聚类结果表明这5个居群分为两支，峨眉居群与天全居群聚为一支;其余三个居群聚为另一支，这与与形态分化相吻合。 5.该属胚胎学不少特征与毛莨科其它属相似：花药壁发育为双子叶型，腺质绒毡层，胞质分裂为同时型，成熟花粉为二细胞：双珠被，珠孔仅由内珠被形成，蓼型胚囊，胚胎发生属柳叶菜型。但是假厚珠心与双珠被的特殊组合，有别于毛莨科其它类群。我们还首次报道了鸡爪草属、黄连属和人字果属的部分胚胎学特征。 基于以上形态学、孢粉学、细胞学和等位酶的分析结果，作者认为将星果草属处理为单种属，种下分为两个亚种较为合适。并认为星果草属为金莲花亚科中的自然类群，并与金莲花亚科中金莲花族关系较近，给予族的等级较为合适。

果实采后病害生物防治及其机理研究

　　分离和筛选了5种能有效防治采后果实病害的拮抗菌。其中，季也蒙假丝酵母(Candida guiliermondii(Cast) Langeroret Guerra)从引种拮抗菌中筛选获得，枯草芽孢杆菌（Bacillus subtilis）B-912从土壤中分离筛选获得，膜醭毕赤酵母（Pichia membranefaciens hansen）从桃果实伤口上分离获得，隐球酵母(Cryptococcus albidus (Saito) Skinner)和丝孢酵母（Trichosporon sp.）从桃果实表面分离获得。本文主要研究了这些拮抗菌对桃、油桃、苹果、梨和柑桔等我国主要水果采后病害的防治效果，并对其可能的抑菌机理进行了初步研究。结果如下： 1. Sx108 CFU/mL的C．guiliermondii和P．membranefaciens悬浮液可完全抑制病菌孢子浓度为5x104个/mL时桃和油桃果实软腐病(Rhizopus stolonifer(Ehrenb.ex Fr.) Vuill.)在25℃，15℃和3℃下的发生。lx108 CFU/mL的C．albidus和Trichosporon sp.悬浮液可完全抑制孢子浓度分别为lx105个/mL和5x104个/mL时苹果灰霉病(Botrytis cinerea)和青霉病（Penicillum expansum）在23℃-25℃和1℃下的发生。C．albidus和Trichosporon sp.对梨灰、青霉病也有一定抑制效果。B-912对柑桔果实青霉病(Penicillium italicum)、绿霉病(Penicillium digitatum)和核果类果实褐腐病(Monilinia fructicola)也有极好的抑制效果。生物防治效果与拮抗菌的浓度成正比，与病菌孢子浓度成反比。 2．拮抗酵母菌在室温和冷藏条件下都能迅速在果实伤口定殖，接种酵母菌48 h后，数量可增加20倍以上。拮抗菌和病菌孢子的接种时间与生物防治效果有关，先接种拈抗菌的抑菌效果显著地好于同时或后于病菌接种的效果。 3．温度对拮抗酵母菌的抑菌活力没有明显影响，无论是在室温还是在冷藏条件下，拮抗酵母菌都有同样的抑菌效果。但拮抗细菌B-912的抑菌效果与温度有一定关系。较高的温度有利于细菌拮抗作用的发挥。 4．拮抗菌能与常规的果实采后处理措施如钙处理、化学杀菌剂、冷藏和气调贮藏相结合。酵母菌与2% CaC12配合能明显地增强其抑菌能力;拮抗菌与低浓度的杀菌剂如扑海因混合使用，可达到高浓度杀菌剂的抑病效果;C．albidus和Trichosporon sp.对果实采后气调贮藏环境有良好的适应性，它们在气调下对采后苹果、梨的灰霉病和青霉病的抑制效果比冷藏条件下的好。 5．细菌B-912的抑菌机理与其产生抗菌素有关，B-912的滤液在in vitro上能有效地抑制病菌孢子的萌发，在invivo上也能明显地抑制果实采后病害的发生。拮抗酵母菌的抑菌机理则较复杂，但主要与病菌竞争营养有关，同时，C．guilliermondii和P．membranefaciens对软腐菌的抑制还通过产生水解酶如β-1，3一葡聚糖酶和几丁酶与病原菌直接作用，并参与诱导寄主产生抗性等

云南省纳帕海自然保护区越冬黑颈鹤的集群特征

下载PDF阅读器2004年10月-2005年5月,在云南纳帕海自然保护区采用定点扫描法对越冬黑颈鹤(Grus nigricollis)的集群类犁和集群大小进行了观察.结果表明黑颈鹤夜间集群夜栖,形成较大的夜栖群,平均群体大小为67.9只(16-157,n=17):按照有无灰鹤加入,又将其分为同种集群和混种集群两种类型,其中同种集群的黑颈鹤数量占整个越冬种群的65.3%.在白昼,黑颈鹤以家庭鹤、集群鹤及特殊群体3种类型活动,家庭鹤和集群鹤的平均大小分别为2.7只(2-4,n=145)和16.1只(3-65,n=1017).黑颈鹤的集群大小并不稳定,在日内和月份间均有明显变化(P=0.000＜0.05).存越冬期,最大集群形成于12月,其次为11月和1月;在日内,早上8时集群最大,随后减小并保持相对稳定,18时黑颈鹤开始向夜栖地靠拢,使得集群再次开始增大.随后观察中还发现,黑颈鹤的家庭解体过程开始于3月底,当幼鹤被成鹤驱逐离群后,逐渐加入集群鹤活动,从而使得家庭鹤和集群鹤的大小和组成发生改变.黑颈鹤的集群大小和组成受自身状况、种内关系、天气、食物等多种因素的共同影响,随时间和季节变动而发生变化,是对自身、种群和环境条件变化的综合反映.

Monolithically integrated semiconductor optical amplifier and electroabsorption modulator with dual-waveguide spot-size converter input and output

We have demonstrated an electroabsorption modulator and semiconductor optical amplifier monolithically integrated with novel dual-waveguide spot-size converters (SSC) at the input and output ports for low-loss coupling to a planar light-guide circuit silica waveguide or cleaved single-mode optical fibre. The device was fabricated by means of selective-area MOVPE growth, quantum well intermixing and asymmetric twin waveguide technologies with only a three-step low-pressure MOVPE growth. For the device structure, in the SOA/EAM section, a double ridge structure was employed to reduce the EAM capacitances and enable high bit-rate operation. In the SSC sections, buried ridge structure (BRS) was incorporated. Such a combination of ridge, ATG and BRS structure is reported for the first time in which it can take advantage of easy processing of the ridge structure and the excellent mode characteristic of BRS. At the wavelength range of 1550-1600 nm, lossless operation with extinction ratios of 25 dB dc and more than 10 GHz 3 dB bandwidth is successfully achieved, The beam divergence angles of the input and output ports of the device are as small as 8.0 degrees x 12.6 degrees, resulting in 3.0 dB coupling loss with a cleaved single-mode optical fibre.

WEPP模型坡面版在黄土丘陵沟壑区的适用性评价——以坡度因子为例

利用安塞试验站1985-1992年的气象观测数据和野外坡度径流小区径流和土壤侵蚀量监测资料,评价了WEPP模型在黄土丘陵沟壑区不同坡度条件下的适用性。结果表明,径流量的模拟值在10°、15°、20°、25°和28°五个坡度条件下,变化幅度不如实测值明显,但模拟值随坡度变化的趋势和实测值相一致;WEPP模型对次降雨、年平均和多年平均土壤侵蚀量模拟结果较好,且无论是模拟值在不同坡度之间的差值、还是模拟值随坡度变化趋势均与实测值接近。I30对WEPP模型模拟次降雨径流量有重要影响,当I30大于0.92mm/min,模型模拟误差较大。WEPP模型对次降雨土壤侵蚀量的模拟与PI30密切相关,当PI30大于129mm2/min时,模型模拟误差较大。∑PI30对WEPP模型模拟年平均径流量和侵蚀量有重要影响,当∑PI30大于150mm2/min时,模拟精度明显下降,且∑PI30对径流模拟影响较对土壤侵蚀模拟影响明显。WEPP模型对次降雨、年平均和多年平均径流量模拟的Nash-Sutcliffe有效性ME分别为0.914、0.912和0.617;对次降雨、年平均和多年平均土壤侵蚀量模拟的Nash-Sutcliffe有效性ME...

Effect of Annealing on Structural and Magnetic Properties of a Thick (Ga,Mn)As Layer

We investigate effects of annealing on magnetic properties of a thick (Ga,Mn)As layer, and find a dramatic increase of the Curie temperature from 65 to 115 K by postgrowth annealing for a 500-nm (Ga,Mn)As layer. Auger electron spectroscopy measurements suggest that the increase of the Curie temperature is mainly due to diffusion of Mn interstitial to the free surface. The double-crystal x-ray diffraction patterns show that the lattice constant of (Ga,Mn)As decreases with increasing annealing temperature. As a result, the annealing induced reduction of the lattice constant is mainly attributed to removal of Mn interstitial.

3μm GaInNAs/GasAs Quantum Well Resonant Cavity Enhanced Photodetector

A 1.3μm GaInNAs resonant cavity enhanced (RCE) photodetector (PD) has been grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) monolithically on (100) GaAs substrate using a home-made ion-removed dc-plasma cell as nitrogen source. A transfer matrix method was used to optimize the device structure. The absorption region is composed of three GaInNAs quantum wells separated by GaAs layers. Devices were isolated by etching 130μm-diameter mesas and filling polyamide into grooves. The maximal quantum efficiency of the device is about 12% at 1.293μm. Full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 5.8nm and 3dB bandwidth is 304MHz. Dark current is 2 * 10~(-11) A at zero bias voltage. Further improvement of the performance of the RCE PD can be obtained by optimizing of the structure design and MBE growth conditions.
