Behavior of Pentacene Initial Nucleation on Various Dielectrics and Its Effect on Carrier Transport in Organic Field-Effect Transistor

The influence of dielectric surface energy on the initial nucleation and the growth of pentacene films as well as the electrical properties of the pentacene-based field-effect transistors are investigated. We have examined a range of organic and inorganic dielectrics with different surface energies, such as polycarbonate/SiO2, polystyrene/SiO2, and PMMA/SiO2 bi-layered dielectrics and also the bare SiO2 dielectric. Atomic force microscopy measurements of sub-monolayer and thick pentacene films indicated that the growth of pentacene film was in Stranski-Kranstanow growth mode on all the dielectrics. However, the initial nucleation density and the size of the first-layered pentacene islands deposited on different dielectrics are drastically influenced by the dielectric surface energy. With the increasing of the surface energy, the nucleation density increased and thus the average size of pentacene islands for the first mono-layer deposition decreased. The performance of fabricated pentacene-based thin film transistors was found to be highly related to nucleation density and the island size of deposited Pentacene film, and it had no relationship to the final particle size of the thick pentacene film. The field effect mobility of the thin film transistor could be achieved as high as 1.38 cm(2)/Vs with on/off ratio over 3 x 10(7) on the PS/SiO2 where the lowest surface energy existed among all the dielectrics. For comparison, the values of mobility and on/off ratio were 0.42 cm(2)/Vs and 1 x 10(6) for thin film transistor deposited directly on bare SiO2 having the highest surface energy.

长白山阔叶红松林种子雨组成与时空格局

种子雨是森林植物种群更新的主要方式之一，是森林生态系统自我繁衍和恢复的主要手段。为了解长白山阔叶红松林种子雨的组成及其时空变化，参照BCI 50ha 样地技术规范，在长白山阔叶红松林25ha长期监测样地内设置了150个种子收集器，从2006年5月15日到2007年11月8日，每15天收集掉落于收集器中的果实、种子及其相关附属物等。所收到的样品分别鉴定其种类并分为成熟种实、未成熟种实、花絮、果实或种子碎片及其附属物4类，记录各类别的数量，然后分别烘干称重。 研究期间，共收集到11科12属22种木本植物的种子及其它生殖器官残体，包括成熟种实16种，未成熟种实17种，花序12种，翅2种，果实或种子碎片及其附属物10种。累计收集到种实136664粒，其中成熟种实32358粒，占所有种实总数的23.80%。种实数最多的树种是紫椴(Tilia amurensis)，其次为水曲柳(Fraxinus mandshuica)，两个树种种实数占总数的89.54%。种实总重量为3320.93g，其中成熟种实总重量为1242.85g，占37.4%。成熟种实中水曲柳和紫椴的重量最大，其次是色木槭(Acer mono)，假色槭(A. pseudo-sieboldianum)、糠椴(T. mandshuric)和红松(Pinus koraiensis)。 种子雨数量年际变化明显，2006年种子雨密度为1370.25粒/m2，2007年为249.47粒/m2，差异极显著(P<0.001)。但不同年份种子雨的季节动态趋势一致，均有两个明显的大高峰期和一个小高峰期。不同物种种子雨扩散的时间格局大致可以分为“单峰”和“双峰”两种类型，在时间上体现了不同物种的更新策略。 150个收集器均收到了成熟种实，各收集器中的种实数呈偏态分布，种实数在150-250之间的收集器数量最多，共68个，种实数小于50的收集器有5个，种实数大于250的收集器共37个。样地内成熟种实数量及其空间分布差异明显，收集器中种实数在1000个以上的有3个，最多达1511个，聚集分布于样地的西北角；收集器中种实数最少的只有22个种实。种实重量的空间分布与种实数分布一样存在较明显的空间差异，只是差异性相对偏弱一些，且与种实数量的空间分布不一致。

KOPIDE：长白山北坡阔叶红松林生长与演替的计算机模型

由于森林生态系统的复杂性，过去常用统计回归模型模拟它的各种动态现象。但这样的模型不能揭示森林生态系统的内在规律，故可称之为“黑箱”模型。随着对森林生态系统认识的加深，以及电子计算机技术的广泛应用，用来模仿森林生态系统内在结构与功能规律的各种计算机模型得到了极大发展，从而产生一些不同“灰化”程度的森林动态“仿真”模型。本文建立的阔叶红松林生长与演替计算模型（DOPIDE）就属于这样的“灰箱”模型。KOPIDE（for KOrean PIne'DEciduous mixed forests）是在JABOWA（Botkin, 1972）和FORET（Shugart等，1977）两个模型的基础上建立的，它们都可称为GAP模型。KOPIDE模型共涉及八个树种：红松（Pinus koraiensis）、水曲柳（Fraxinus mandshurica）、紫椴（Tilia amurensis）、春榆（Ulmus japonica）、蒙古柞（Quercus mongolica）、色木（Acer mono）、白桦（Betula platyphylla）、以及山杨（Populus davidiana）。建立该模型的理论基础是森林演替的林窗（CAP）动态理论，它以一年的步长模拟了样地里每株树木的整个生长发育过成（即更新、生长和枯死）。虽然KOPIDE是JABOWA和FORET的直接效仿模型，但它的模拟针对性较强，在模型的结构上有了很大改进。它的运行结果表明，KOPIDE模型在树种生物学特性的描写上、在阔叶红松林动态规律的模拟上、以及在择伐生长的预测上都有较好的可靠性，可用来揭示阔叶红松林长时期的更新、生长和演替规律与特征，也可模拟阔叶红松林的各种经营方式，为决策人提供预测性结果，以供参考。经过KOPIDE模型的反复运行与调试，发现各树种在更新、枯死与林窗大小的关系上很不相同。根据这种现象，可将树种划分为四类：1、在较大的林窗下更新，枯死后不产生大林窗；2、更新不需要林窗，死亡后产生的林窗较大；3、更新需要林窗条件，枯死后不产生林窗；4、不在林窗下更新，死亡后也不产生林窗。尽管这样的建有点绝对化和简单化，但从中可以得出几类树种之间复杂的相互关系网。由此把复杂森林生态系统大范围的动态变化过程视为组成其许多同质或异质小林地单元的动态相嵌。林地单元的同质性，决定了它们动态变化的同步性，从而导致整个林分动态的突性或不稳定性；而林地单元的异质性是决定森林生态系统稳定性的关键性因素。这从另一角度为在东北东部山地和发展阔叶红松林提供了较有说服力的理论基础。

环糊精衍生物的设计、合成及其对环辛烯光异构化研究

环糊精(Cyclodextrins, CDs)经化学修饰后可以得到各种类型的衍生物，不仅可以扩展其原有的键合能力，而且还可以改变其选择性，是当代超分子化学的一个研究热点。环糊精第二面的仲羟基比第一面的伯羟基有着更好的催化性能，第二面的选择性修饰将产生更多有价值的衍生物，可用于催化、酶模拟、手性识别等方面。 取代苯甲酰基修饰环糊精对顺式环辛烯(cis-cyclooctene)光异构化反应有非常重要的影响作用，苯环上取代基的性质和取代位置与产物的%ee值和对映体构型之间存在某种内在联系。有目的地选择适宜取代基，设计、合成新型环糊精光增感剂, 有可能按预定目的得到更高%ee值的反式环辛烯；同时，取代苯甲酰基修饰环糊精对cis-cyclooctene光异构化的增感机理有待于进一步阐明。 本论文工作对环糊精的化学修饰以及超分子体系对cis-cyclooctene不对称光异构化反应方面的进展进行了调研。合成了一系列单-6-位取代苯甲酰基修饰环糊精，用于cis-cyclooctene光异构化增感反应，并用圆二色光谱滴定法研究这些环糊精衍生物与cis-cyclooctene的相互作用，以探索光增感反应机理。在此基础上，探讨了环糊精第二面的选择性修饰方法。内容主要包括： 1. 简要介绍了超分子化学的概况，并对环糊精的选择性修饰方法和超分子体系对cis-cyclooctene不对称光异构化反应的主要成果和最新进展进行了评述。 2. 合成了12种单-6-O-(取代苯甲酰基)-β-环糊精，其中10种为新化合物。采用紫外光谱、红外光谱、核磁共振波谱以及质谱等手段对化合物的结构进行了表征。 3. 探索了直接选择性修饰环糊精第二面的便捷新方法。用取代苯甲酰咪唑酯为酰化试剂，0.2M碳酸盐缓冲溶液(pH=9.9)作催化剂，能够有效地活化2-位仲羟基，对环糊精第二面进行选择性修饰，此方法既简便又经济；同时，发现取代苯甲酰基能够在β-CD第二面的2-位、3-位羟基间相互迁移。 4. 用单-6-O-(取代苯甲酰基)-β-环糊精作光增感剂，对cis-cyclooctene光异构化反应进行研究。实验结果证明：取代苯甲酰基上的取代基性质、位置、长度对反应的对映选择性有很大影响；此外，反应体系溶剂极性对产物的%ee值和对映体构型也有重大影响。用单-6-O-(3-甲氧苯甲酰基)-β-CD作增感剂，cis-cyclooctene光异构化反应产物(R)-trans-cyclooctene的对映选择性为45.8%ee，是到目前为止取得的最好对映选择性。 5. 采用圆二色光谱滴定法研究环糊精衍生物与cis-cyclooctene的相互作用，计算包结物的平衡常数，研究包结物的相对稳定性，为探索光增感反应机理提供基础。我们猜测：电子效应对cis-cyclooctene光异构化反应的影响，可能比取代基位置对反应的影响更大，借助电子效应有希望获得更高的%ee值。 Cyclodextrins can be subjected to diverse modifications to give a wide variety of cyclodextrin derivatives, which could not only extend their original molecular binding ability, but also alter their molecular selectivity. Therefore, cyclodextrin chemistry is currently a significant topic in supramolecular chemistry. The more open secondary hydroxyl side of CDs is stated to be catalytically very important, modifications of this face are believed to produce valuable derivatives for catalysis, enzyme mimic, chiral discrimination, etc. Mono-6-O-(substituted benzoyl)-β-CDs as novel supramolecular photosensitizing hosts have recently excited considerable attention in photochirogenesis. The supramolecular photosenstization of cis-cyclooctene mediated by them gave chiral trans-cyclooctene, enantiomeric excess of which was critically affected by the substituent introduced to the sensitizer moiety. In order to enhance the photoenantiodifferentiating ability, and elucidate the origin mechanisms of substituent-dependent enantioselectivity, in this work a series of mono-6-O-(substituted benzoyl)-β-CDs have been synthesized, and applied for enantiodifferentiating photoisomerization of cis-cyclooctene. The major contents are as follows: 1. The general aspects of supramolecular chemistry were descibed briefly. The new progress and important achievements on methods of selective modification of cyclodextrin and supramolecular enantiodifferentiating photoisomerization of cis-cyclooctene were reviewed. 2. Twelve mono-6-O-(substituted benzoyl)-β-CDs including ten novel compounds have been synthesized. Their structures have been characterized by using UV-vis, IR, NMR and MS methods. 3. A new convenient strategy for direct acylation of β-cyclodextrin on the secondary hydroxyl face was achieved by using the combination of N-benzoylimidazole and carbonate buffer in DMF, and the acyl migration between the C-2 and C-3 hydroxyl groups of β-cyclodextrin was found. 4. Experiments using mono-6-O-(substituted benzoyl)-β-CDs as chiral sensitizing hosts for mediating the enantiodifferentiating photoisomerization of cis-cyclooctene, were carried out. The results indicate that enantiomeric excess was critically affected, or even switched in sign, by the substituent introduced to the sensitizer moiety, and polarity of solvent. Using mono-6-O-(3-methoxybenzoyl)-β-CD as chiral sensitizing host, (R)-trans-cyclooctene was obtained in up to 45.8% enantiomeric excess, which is the highest value ever reported for supramolecular photochirogenesis with analogous hosts. 5. The conformational variation of these modified CDs and their complexation behaviors with cis-cyclooctene were examined by circular dichroism spectroscopy in water-methanol mixed solvents, which reveal that the orientation of chromophore was highly sensitive to the type, position and length of the introduced substituents. In the end, the complex stability constants(Ks) were calculated, and the mechanisms of reaction were discussed. Maybe, electronic effects are more important than positions of substituents for mediating the enantiodifferentiating photoisomerization of cis-cyclooctene.

青藏高原东缘几种树苗对增强紫外线-B和氮供应的响应

大气臭氧的损耗导致了地球表面具有生物学效应的紫外线-B(UV-B)辐射增强。同时，大气成分变化中除了UV-B辐射增强外，氮沉降是一个新近出现而又令人担忧的环境问题，其来源和分布正在迅速扩展到全球范围，并不断向陆地和水生生态系统沉降。本试验在四川省境内的中国科学院茂县生态站内进行，以云山、冷杉、色木槭和红椋子幼苗为模式植物，从生长形态、光合作用、抗氧化能力和矿质营养等方面研究了青藏高原东缘4种树苗对全球变化－增强UV-B辐射和氮供应(氮沉降)的响应。该试验为室外盆栽试验，包括四个处理：(1)大气UV-B辐射+无额外的氮供应(C)；(2)大气UV-B辐射+额外的氮供应(N)；(3)增强UV-B辐射+无额外的氮供应(UV-B)；(4)增强UV-B辐射+额外的氮供应(UV-B+N)。其目的：一方面有助于丰富我国对全球变化及区域响应研究的全面认识，进一步完善在全球气候变化条件下臭氧层削减和氮沉降对陆地生态系统影响的内容；另一方面，在一定程度上有助于我们更好的理解在全球变化下森林更新的早期过程。具体结果如下： 增强的UV-B辐射在生长形态、光合、抗氧化能力、活性氧和矿质营养方面对4种幼苗都有显著的影响。UV-B辐射增强对幼苗的影响不仅与物种有关，而且，还与氮营养水平相关。总体表现为，高的UV-B辐射导致了色木槭和红椋子幼苗叶片的皱缩和卷曲，并降低了色木槭幼苗的叶片数和叶重，在额外的氮供应下，云杉、冷杉和红椋子的叶重也显著地降低了；色木槭和红椋子幼苗叶片的解剖结构受到了增强的UV-B辐射的影响，增强的UV-B辐射显著地降低了色木槭叶片的栅栏组织厚度，提高了红椋子叶片的厚度；增强的UV-B辐射显著地降低了4种幼苗的单株总生物量、植物地下部分的生长、总叶绿素含量 [Chl (a + b)]、净光合速率和最大量子产量(Fv/Fm)，提高了4种幼苗叶片的膜脂过氧化(MDA含量)，改变了植物体不同器官中的矿质元素含量；增强的UV-B辐射提高了冷杉、色木槭和红椋子叶片中的过氧化氢含量(H2O2)、超氧负离子(O2-)生成速率，在额外的氮供应下，云杉叶片中的活性氧含量也显著地提高了；在无额外的氮供应条件下，增强的UV-B辐射显著地提高了4种幼苗叶片中的UV-B吸收物质、脯氨酸含量和抗氧化酶的活性(SOD、POD、CAT、GR和APX)。在额外的氮供应条件下，UV-B辐射的增强却显著地降低了冷杉叶片中脯氨酸含量和红椋子叶片中UV-B吸收物质含量，但是，在4种幼苗叶片中，5种抗氧化酶的活性对UV-B辐射的增强没有明显的规律性，增强的UV-B辐射显著地提高了云杉叶片中的POD、SOD和GR的活性，提高了冷杉叶片中的POD和GR活性，提高了色木槭叶片中的POD、SOD和CAT活性和红椋子幼苗叶片中的POD和SOD活性。从这些结果可知，植物在遭受高的UV-B辐射导致的过氧化胁迫时，植物体内形成了一定的保护机制，但是，这种保护不能抵抗高的UV-B辐射对植物的伤害。 额外的氮供应在生长形态、光合、抗氧化能力、活性氧和矿质营养方面对4种幼苗都有一定的影响，不同幼苗对额外的氮供应响应不同，并且受到UV-B辐射水平的影响。在当地现有的UV-B辐射水平下，额外的氮供应显著地提高了幼苗的单株总生物量、植物地下部分的生长、Chl (a + b)、净光合速率(红椋子除外)、UV-B吸收物质(冷杉除外)、脯氨酸含量(红椋子除外)和部分抗氧化酶的活性，降低了H2O2的含量、O2-的生成速率和MDA含量(红椋子除外)，改变了植物体内部分矿质元素含量，显著地提高了云杉和冷杉叶片中的Fv/Fm。这些指标总体表明，在当地现有大气UV-B辐射水平下，额外的氮供应对植物的生长和发育是有利的。在增强的UV-B辐射水平下，4种幼苗的生长形态和光合大部分指标都没有受到额外氮供应的影响，额外的氮供应提高了红椋子幼苗的单株总生物量和Chl (a + b)含量，提高了冷杉和色木槭叶片中的活性氧含量和MDA含量，却降低了红椋子叶片中的活性氧含量；额外的氮供应也提高了云杉、色木槭和红椋子叶片中UV-B吸收物质和脯氨酸含量，降低了冷杉叶片中UV-B吸收物质和脯氨酸含量；在抗氧化酶活性方面，额外的氮供应降低了云杉、冷杉叶片中5种抗氧化酶的活性和红椋子叶片中POD和GR的活性，提高了色木槭叶片中的POD和SOD的活性；4种幼苗植物体内的矿质元素含量对额外的氮供应没有显著的规律性。从这些结果可知，在高的UV-B辐射下，额外的氮供应提高了云杉、冷杉和色木槭幼苗对高的UV-B辐射的敏感性，然而，额外的氮供应却促进了红椋子幼苗的生长，原因可能是，在高的UV-B辐射下，额外的氮供应增加了红椋子叶片的厚度、叶重和叶片数，降低了叶片中活性氧含量的结果。表明在高的UV-B辐射水平下，额外的氮供应降低了红椋子幼苗对高的UV-B辐射的敏感性。 在全球变化的趋势下，UV-B辐射增强和氮沉降可能同时存在，我们的研究表明，与大气UV-B辐射+无额外的氮供应处理相比，增强UV-B辐射+额外的氮供应处理显著地降低了幼苗的单株总生物量(红椋子除外)、Chl (a + b)、净光合速率、Fv/Fm(冷杉除外)和MDA含量(红椋子除外)，提高了活性氧含量 (云杉除外)、UV-B紫外吸收物质含量(冷杉除外)、脯氨酸含量和部分抗氧化酶的活性，改变了植物体不同器官中的矿质元素含量。结果表明，在当地现有条件下，全球变化(UV-B辐射增强和氮沉降)对云杉、冷杉和色木槭幼苗的生长是不利，尽管植物体内一些抗氧化性指标提高了，然而，却对红椋子幼苗的单株总生物量的累积没有显著的影响。 The depletion of the ozone led to the increase of ultraviolet-B (UV-B) with biological effects in the earth’s surface. At the same time, except for enhanced UV-B radiation, nitrogen deposition was an anxious environmental problem at present, rapidly expanding to the global scope and continuously depositing to land and aquatic ecosystem. The experiment was conducted in Maoxian Ecological Station of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Sichuan province, China. Picea asperata, Abies faxoniana, Acer mono Maxim and Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings were selected as model plants to assess the effects of enhanced UV-B radiation and supplemental nitrogen supply on growth, morphological, photosynthesis, antioxidant and mineral nutrient traits of 4 species seedlings in east Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. The experiment was potted outdoor, including 4 treatments: (1) ambient UV-B without supplemental nitrogen (control, C); (2) ambient UV-B with supplemental nitrogen (N); (3) enhanced UV-B without supplemental nitrogen (UV-B); (4) enhanced UV-B with supplemental nitrogen (UV-B+N). One hand, it was helpful for enriching our country to comprehensive understanding of the researches in the global change and the region response, further perfecting the effects of the depleted ozone layer and nitrogen deposition on land ecosystem under the global change; the other hand, it was favorable for us to better understanding of the early process of forest renews under the global change. The results were as follows: Enhanced UV-B radiation had significant effects on 4 species seedlings in growth, morphological, photosynthesis, antioxidant and mineral nutrient traits of 4 species seedlings. The effects of enhanced UV-B on plants were not only related with species, but also related with nitrogen nutrient level. Generally, the increase of UV-B radiation led to the shrinkage and curl of leaves in Acer mono Maxim and Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings, and reduced the number of leaf and leaf weight of Acer mono Maxim seedlings, under supplemental nitrogen supply, leaf weight of Picea asperata, Abies faxoniana and Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings significantly also reduced; the anatomical features of leaf in Acer mono Maxim and Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings affected by enhanced UV-B radiation, the increase of UV-B radiation markedly reduced the palisade tissue thickness of Acer mono Maxim leaf and enhanced the leaf thickness of Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings; the enhanced UV-B radiation significantly reduced total biomass per plant of 4 species seedlings, the growth of the underground parts, Chl (a + b), net photosynthetic rate and maximum potential quantum yield of photosynthesis (Fv/Fm), and increased the degree of lipid peroxidation (MDA content) and changed the content of mineral elements in different parts of plants; the enhanced UV-B radiation also increased the rate of superoxide radical (O2-) production and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) content in leaves of Abies faxoniana, Acer mono Maxim, Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings, under supplemental nitrogen supply, the reactive oxygen species in leaves of Picea asperata seedlings also significantly increased by enhanced UV-B radiation; under without supplemental nitrogen supply, enhanced UV-B radiation evidently induced an increase in UV-B absorbing compounds, proline content and the activities of antioxidant enzymes (SOD, POD, CAT, GR and APX) of leaves in 4 species seedlings. Under supplemental nitrogen supply, enhanced UV-B radiation induced a decrease in proline content of leaves in Abies faxoniana seedlings and UV-B absorbing compounds of leaves in Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings, but, there were no obvious rules in the activities of five antioxidant enzymes of 4 species seedling leaves to enhanced UV-B radiation, enhanced UV-B radiation significantly increased the activities of POD, SOD and GR in Picea asperata leaves, the activities of POD and GR in Abies faxoniana leaves and the activities of POD, SOD and CAT in Acer mono Maxim leaves. The results indicated that some protective mechanism was formed when plants were exposed to enhanced UV-B radiation, but the protection could not counteract the harm of high UV-B radiation on plants. Supplemental nitrogen supply had some effects on 4 species seedlings in growth, morphological, photosynthesis, antioxidant and mineral nutrient traits. The response of 4 species seedlings was different to supplemental nitrogen supply, and was affected by UV-B levels. Under local ambient UV-B radiation, supplemental nitrogen supply significantly increased the total biomass per plant, the growth of underground parts, Chl (a + b), net photosynthetic rate (except for Acer mono Maxim seedlings), UV-B absorbing compounds (except for Abies faxoniana seedlings), proline content (except for Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings) and the activities of some antioxidant enzymes, and reduced H2O2 content, the rate of O2- production and MDA content (except for Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings) and changed the content of mineral elemental in different parts; supplemental nitrogen supply also evidently increased Fv/Fm in Picea asperata and Abies faxoniana seedlings. These results indicated that supplemental nitrogen supply was favorable for the growth of plants under local ambient UV-B radiation. Under enhanced UV-B radiation, mostly parameters in growth and morphology of 4 species seedlings were not affected by supplemental nitrogen supply. Supplemental nitrogen supply increased the total biomass per plant and Chl (a + b) of Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedling, increased the reactive oxygen species and MDA content in Abies faxoniana and Acer mono Maxim leaves, and reduced the reactive oxygen species in Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak leaves; supplemental nitrogen supply also increased UV-B absorbing compounds and proline content in Picea asperata, Acer mono Maxim and Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak leaves, decreased UV-B absorbing compounds and proline content in Abies faxoniana leaves; in the activities of antioxidant enzymes, supplemental nitrogen supply significantly reduced the activities of antioxidant enzymes in Picea asperata and Abies faxoniana leaves and the activities of POD and GR in Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak leaves, and increased the activities of POD and SOD in Acer mono Maxim leaves; the content of mineral elements in 4 species seedlings was no significantly rule to supplemental nitrogen supply. We knew from the results, under enhanced UV-B radiation, supplemental nitrogen supply made Picea asperata, Acer faxoniana and Acer mono Maxim seedlings more sensitivity to enhanced UV-B radiation, however, accelerated the growth of Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings. The reason was probably that supplemental nitrogen supply increased the leaf thickness, leaf weight and leaf number, reduced the reactive oxygen content of leaf in Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings grown under high UV-B radiation. This showed that supplemental nitrogen supply reduced the sensitivity of Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings to high UV-B radiation. Under the tendency of the global change, enhanced UV-B radiation and nitrogen deposition may probably coexist. The results showed, compared with the treatment of ambient UV-B radiation without supplemental nitrogen supply, the treatment of enhanced UV-B radiation with supplemental nitrogen supply significantly reduced the total biomass per plants (except for Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings), Chl (a + b), net photosynthetic rate, Fv/Fm and MDA content (except for Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings), and increased reactive oxygen content (except for Picea asperata seedlings), UV-B absorbing compounds (except for Abies faxoniana seedlings), proline content and part antioxidant enzymes, and changed the content of mineral elements of different parts. The results indicated that the global change (enhanced UV-B and nitrogen deposition) were not favorable for the growth of plants under local ambient UV-B radiation and nitrogen nutrient level,, though increased some antioxidant indexes, however, the treatment of enhanced UV-B with supplement nitrogen supply did not significantly affect on the biomass accumulation of Swida hemsleyi (Schneid. et Wanger.) Sojak seedlings.

Defect production in silicon carbide irradiated with Ne and Xe ions with energy of 2.3 MeV/amu

In the present work specimens of mono-crystalline silicon carbide (4H polytype) were irradiated to three successively increasing ion fluences ranging from 7.2 x 10(14) to 6.0 x 10(16) ions/cm(2) (corresponding to the peak displacement damage of 1, 4 and 13 dpa) with Ne and Xe ions respectively with the energy of 2.3 MeV/amu. The irradiated specimens were subsequently annealed at temperatures of 1173 and 1273 K. Defect structure was investigated with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using a cross-sectional specimen preparation technique. The typical microstructures of the annealed specimens irradiated with Ne or Xe ions to high fluences are characterized by small gas bubbles in high concentration in the peak damage region and black dots and dislocation loops (located in the basal plane) in a shallower and broader depth region. Larger dislocation loops were observed in the Xe-ion irradiated specimen than in the Ne-ion irradiated specimen at the same peak damage level. The enhanced formation of dislocation loops in the case of Xe-ion irradiation is understandable by assuming stronger inclination of heavier inert-gas atoms to occupy substitute site in the peak damage region.

长白山阔叶红松(Pinuskoraiensis)林种子雨组成及其季节动态

为了解阔叶红松(Pinus koraiensis)林的种子雨组成及其在时间和空间上的动态变化,在长白山阔叶红松林25hm2样地内,设置了150个种子收集器,收集掉落于种子收集器中的果实、种子等。所有收集到的样品分别鉴定其种类并分为成熟种实、未成熟种实、花序和果实或种子碎片及其附属物4类,计算各类别的数量,而后分别烘干秤重。从2005年6月到2006年11月,共收集到隶属11科12属20种的种实及其生殖器官残体。累计收集到121291粒种实,其中成熟种实23147粒,仅占所有种实总个体数的19.1%。种实数最多的树种是紫椴(Tilia amurensis)和水曲柳(Fraxinus mandshurica),两个树种种实的个体数占总个体数的90%。对2006年5月~11月种子雨季节动态的分析发现:种实在7月中旬至10月下旬数量极大,但主要由未成熟种实组成;在10月中旬出现成熟种实散落高峰,但未成熟种实仍占一定的比例。按每个收集器收集到的成熟种实数统计,成熟种实数量在100~200之间的收集器数量最多。按每个收集器收集到的树种数统计,收集器中最多收到的树种数为7,树种数为3和4的收集器个数最多。对6个主要树种成熟种实所在收集器的空间分布进行分析发现,紫椴和水曲柳的成熟种实在整个样地都有分布,春榆(Ulmus japonica)、糠椴(T.mandshurica)、色木槭(Acer mono)和假色槭(A.pseudo-sieboldianum)则只在样地的局部区域收集到成熟种实。成熟种实的空间分布与母树的空间分布大都表现出明显的相关性,表明这些树种的成熟种实并没有扩散到离母树较远的距离。

为了解阔叶红松(Pinus koraiensis)林乔木树种幼苗的组成及其年际动态,以长白山阔叶红松林25ha动态监测样地为平台,在样地内150个种子收集器周围设置了600个5m×5m幼苗样方。基于2006-2008年连续3年的幼苗样方调查数据,对乔木幼苗的树种组成、数量组成、空间分布特征、年际动态、新增和死亡幼苗组成等进行了分析。结果表明:(1)从树种组成来看,该群落乔木树种的幼苗组成种类较为丰富,共记录到21个树种,这些树种也是样地内胸径1cm以上乔木树种的主要组成成分。树种组成在年际间变化不大,但各样方间表现出极大的空间变异。(2)从数量组成来看,共记录到11,959株乔木幼苗,以水曲柳(Fraxinus mandshurica)和紫椴(Tilia amurensis)幼苗数最多,占总幼苗数的72.75%;水曲柳、紫椴和红松的幼苗数量在年际间有明显波动,其他树种年际间波动较小。(3)从新增和死亡幼苗的数量与组成来看,共记录到15个乔木树种的新增幼苗,其中紫椴、水曲柳、色木槭(Acer mono)、红松等10个树种在每次调查中都有新苗记录,新苗数量在年际间随物种和样方位置表现出明显差异。(4)对各树种的幼苗、种子和大树的组成和空间分布的比较发现,各树种的幼苗、种子和大树之间的数量组成和比例差异较大,其中紫椴、水曲柳、色木槭和假色槭(A.pseudo-sieboldianum)的幼苗、种子在整个样地内都有分布,春榆(Ulmus japonica)和怀槐(Maackia amurensis)幼苗的空间分布与种子和大树不一致,糠椴(T.mandshurica)和山丁子(Malus baccata)等的幼苗、种子和大树的个体数相对都较少,且它们的分布是一致的。

The effect of acidity on olefin aromatization over potassium modified ZSM-5 catalysts

The transformation of olefin to aromatics over ZSM-5 catalysts with different K-loadings has been investigated both in a continuous flow fixed-bed reactor and in a pulse microreactor. Investigation of variation of olefin aromatization activity with K-loadings shows that strong acid sites are indispensable for the converting of olefin to aromatics. As intermediates of olefin aromatization process, butadiene and cyclopentene not only show much higher aromatization activity than mono-olefins, but also can be transformed into aromatics over relatively weak acid sites of K/ZSM-5. A proposal is put forward, stating that among all the steps experienced in olefins aromatization, the formation of diene or cycloolfin from mono-olefins through hydrogen transfer is the key step and can be catalyzed by strong acid sites.

Mercury selective electrochemical sensor based on a double armed crown ether as ionophore

PVC based membranes of a double armed crown ether, N, N'-dibenzyl, 1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7, 16-diaza cyclooctadecane (I) as ionophore with sodium tetra phenyl borate (NaTPB) as anion excluder and with many plasticizing solvent mediators have been prepared and used for Hg(II) ion determination. The membrane with DBBP (dibutyl butyl phosphonate ) as plasticizer with various ingredients in the ratio PVC: I: NaTPB: DBBP (150: 12: 2: 100) shows the best results in terms of working concentration range (3.1x10-5-1.0x10-tM) with a Nernstian slope (29.0′0.5 mV/decade of activity). The electrode works in the pH range 2.1-4.5. The response time of the sensor is 15s and it can be used for about 4 months in aqueous as well as in non-aqueous medium. It has good stability and reproducibility. The potentiometric selectivity coefficient values for mono-, di-, and trivalent cations are tabulated. The sensor is highly selective for Hg2+ in the presence of normal interferents like cadmium, silver, sodium and iron.

黄土高原沟壑区不同树种的水土保持效益及其适应性评价

研究黄土高原沟壑区不同树种幼林的水土保持效益及其适应性。【方法】以草地为对照,对黄土高原沟壑区刺槐、油松、沙棘、侧柏纯林及其混交林径流小区的产流产沙情况、土壤水分状况及各树种的生理特性进行了分析。【结果】造林初期,各树种及其不同造林方式的水土保持效益均比较差,处于水土保持功能低下阶段,土壤侵蚀的差异主要是由植被的不同覆盖度引起的,二者呈二次多项式关系;回归分析表明,当覆盖度达53%时土壤侵蚀较为轻微。草地和各树种林下0~250 cm土层土壤水分变化较大,其中以刺槐消耗土壤水分最多,其次是侧柏,油松、沙棘和草地之间差异不明显;刺槐纯林与其混交林下土壤水分的差异比较明显,而其他树种不同造林方式下的土壤水分无明显差异。各树种叶片的水分利用效率表现为侧柏>油松≈沙棘>刺槐,油松与沙棘混交造林后两者的水分利用效率都有显著提高;各树种叶片的蒸腾速率表现为刺槐≈沙棘>油松>侧柏,沙棘与油松或刺槐混交后,油松与刺槐的蒸腾速率均有所降低,而沙棘变化不显著。【结论】综合考虑树种的水保效益及其适应性可以发现,沙棘与油松混交可能是黄土高原沟壑区较为适宜的一种造林方式。

This paper describes the synthesis and selected reactions of a series of crystalline mono(beta-diiminato) yttrium chlorides 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b, 5a, 5b, 5c and 9. The X-ray structure of each has been determined, as well as of [YCl(L-4)(2)] (6), [Y(L-1)(2)OBut] (7) and [Y{CH(SiMe3)(2)}(thf)(mu-Cl)(2)Li(OEt2)(2)(mu-Cl)](2) (8).

Isoprene polymerization with indolide-imine supported rare-earth metal alkyl and amidinate complexes

Reaction of 7-{(N-2,6-R)iminomethyl)}lindole (HL1, R = dimethylphenyl; HL2, R = diisopropylphenyl) and rare-earth metal tris(alkyl)s, Ln(CH2SiMe3)(3)(THF)(2), generated new rare-earth metal bis(alkyl) complexes LLn(CH2SiMe3)(2)(THF) [L = L-1: Ln = Lu. (1a), Sc (1b); L = L-2 : Ln = Lu (3a), Se (3b)] and mono(alkyl) complexes L-2 Lu-2(CH2SiMe3) (4a). Treatment of alkyl complexes 1a and 4a with N,N'-diisopropylcarbodiimide afforded the corresponding amidinates (LLu)-Lu-1{iPr(2)NC(CH2SiMe3) NiPr2}(2) (2a) and L-2 Lu-2{iPr(2)NC(CH2SiMe3)NiPr2} (5a), respectively.

Oligoaniline-Functionalized terpyridine ligands and their ruthenium(II) complexes: synthesis, spectroscopic property and redox behaviors

A series of oligoaniline-functionalized mono- and bis-topic terpyridine ligands, i.e. C6H5[N(R)C6H4](n)TPY (R = H, butyl, tert-butyloxycarbonyl; n = 1-4; TPY = 2,2':6',2"-terpyridyl) and TPYC6H4[N(R)C6H4](m)TPY (R = H, tert-butyloxycarbonyl; m = 2, 4), and the corresponding monoand bis-nuclear ruthenium(II) complexes have been synthesized and verified. The spectroscopic results indicate that two kinds of pi-pi* transitions from TPY and oligoaniline fragments of ligands strongly shift to lower energy, and the metal-to-ligand charge-transfer transition ((MLCT)-M-1) bands of all obtained complexes are considerably red-shifted (Delta lambda(max) = 22-64 nm) and their intensities become much more intense (approximately 4-6 times), compared with those of the reported complex [Ru(TPY)(2)](2+). Moreover, the spectroscopic properties of the ligands and complexes with longer oligoaniline units (n = 3, 4) are markedly influenced by the external stimulus, such as the oxidation and proton acid doping.

Reactivity of Rare-Earth Metal Complexes Stabilized by an Anilido-Phosphinimine Ligand

Treatment of anilido-phosphinimine-ligated yttrium mono(alkyl) complex 1a, LY(CH2Si(CH3)(3))(THF) (L = o-(2,6-(C6H3Pr2)-Pr-i)NC6H4P(C6H4)(C6H5)N(2,4,6-C6H2Me3)), with 2 equiv of phenylsilane in DME afforded methoxy-bridged complex 2, [LY(mu-OCH3)](2), via the corresponding hydrido intermediate. When excess isoprene was added to the mixture of la and phenylsilane, a eta(3)-isopentene product, 3, LY(CH2C(CH3)=CHCH3)(THF), was isolated. A lutetium chloride, LLuCl(DME) (4), was generated through the reaction of lutetium mono(alkyl) complex 1b, LLu(CH2Si(CH3)(3))(THF), with [Ph3C]-[B(C6F5)(4)]center dot LiCl accompanied by the formation of [Li(DME)(3)](+)[B(C6F5)(4)](-). Metathesis reaction of 1b with excess AlMe3 at room temperature gave a methyl-terminated counterpart, 5, LLu(CH3)(THF)(2). In all these reactions, the Ln-C-phenyl bonds of complexes 1 remained untouched.
