A novel white light emitting long-lasting phosphor

A novel white light emitting long-lasting phosphor Cd1-xDyxSiO3 is reported in this letter. The Dy3+ doped CdSiO3 phosphor emits white light. The phosphorescence can be seen with the naked eye in the dark clearly even after the 254 nm UV irradiation have been removed for about 30 min. In the emission spectrum of 5% Dy3+ doped CdSiO3 phosphor, there are two emission peaks of Dy3+, 580 mn (F-4(9/2)-->H-6(13/2)) and 486 nm (F-4(9/2)-->H-6(15/2)), as well as a broad band emission located at about 410 nm. All the three emissions form a white light with CIE chromaticity coordinates x=0.3874, y=0.3760 and the color temperature is 4000 K under 254 mn excitation. It indicated that this phosphor is a promising new luminescent material for practice application.

Detection of menadione sodium bisulfite (vitamin K-3) by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography with series dual-electrode amperometric detector

A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with series dual glassy carbon electrodes for the amperometric detection of water-soluble menadione is described. The complex post-column derivatization reaction and the high background currents were avoided. The menadione sodium bisulfite was reduced at -0.3 V vs. SCE at the upstream (generator) electrode and oxidized at +0.2V vs. SCE at the downstream (collector) electrode. The mobile phase was 0.2moll(-1) HAc-NaAc aqueous buffer (pH 5.50) and 40% (v/v) methanol. The linear response was in the range of 35 ng to 15 mu g, with a detection Limit of 15 ng (S/N=3). The correlation coefficient was 0.9997 (n=6). The electrochemical detection with series dual electrodes has a higher selectivity for menadione (vitamin K-3) compound than with UV detection.

Electrochemical behavior of FAD at a gold electrode studied by electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance

The electrochemical behavior of flavine adenine dinucleotide (FAD) at a gold electrode involving adsorption of the reduced form FADH(2) and desorption of the oxidized form FAD has been studied by using electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). EQCM can present information not only about the electrochemical behavior but also about the mass changes on the electrode surface. The electrochemical properties and frequency shifts were investigated in FAD solutions at different pH values, concentrations and scan rates. Reversible voltammograms were observed when pH<4.5 and irreversible voltammograms were found when pH greater than or equal to 4.5. It is found to be a diffusion controlled process when the concentration of FAD is lower than 2x10(-4) moll(-1) (pH 1.5). On the contrary, at concentrations higher than 2x10(-4) moll(-1) (pH 1.5), it is found to be an adsorption controlled process.

The crystal structure and drawing-induced polymorphism in poly(aryl ether ketone)s .1. Poly(oxybiphenyl-4-4'-diyloxy-1,4-phenylenecarbonyl-1,3-phenylenecarbonyl-1,4-phenylene)

Crystal structure and polymorphism induced by uniaxial drawing of a poly(aryl ether ketone) [PEDEKmK] prepared from 1,3-bis(4-fluorobenzoyl)benzene and biphenyl-4,4'-diol have been investigated by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM), electron diffraction (ED), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) techniques. The melting and recrystallization process in the temperature range of 250-260 degrees C, far below the next melting temperature (306 degrees C), was identified and found to be responsible for the remarkable changes in lamellar morphology. Based on WAXD and ED patterns, it was found that crystal structure of isotropic-crystalline PEDEKmK obtained under different crystallization conditions (melt-crystallization, cold-crystallization, solvent-induced crystallization, melting-recrystallization, and crystallization from solution) keeps the same mode of packing, i.e., a two-chain orthorhombic unit cell with the dimensions a = 0.784 nm, b = 0.600 nm, and c = 4.745 nm (form I). A second crystal modification (form II) can be induced by uniaxial drawing above the glass transition temperature, and always coexists with form I. This form also possesses an orthorhombic unit cell but with different dimensions, i.e., a = 0.470 nm, b = 1.054 nm, c = 5.064 nm. The 0.32 nm longer c-axis of form II as compared with form I is attributed to an overextended chain conformation due to the expansion of ether and ketone bridge bond angles during uniaxial drawing. The temperature dependence of WAXD patterns for the drawn PEDEKmK suggests that form II can be transformed into the more stable form I by relaxation of overextended chains and relief of internal stress at elevated temperature in absence of external tension.

Second-order solutions for random interfacial waves under steady uniform currents

In the present research, the study of Song (2004) for random interfacial waves in two-layer fluid is extended to the case of fluids moving at different steady uniform speeds. The equations describing the random displacements of the density interface and the associated velocity potentials in two-layer fluid are solved to the second order, and the wave-wave interactions of the wave components and the interactions between the waves and currents are described. As expected, the extended solutions include those obtained by Song (2004) as one special case where the steady uniform currents of the two fluids are taken as zero, and the solutions reduce to those derived by Sharma and Dean (1979) for random surface waves if the density of the upper fluid and the current of the lower fluid are both taken as zero.

Rossby waves with linear topography in barotropic fluids

Rossby waves are the most important waves in the atmosphere and ocean, and are parts of a large-scale system in fluid. The theory and observation show that, they satisfy quasi-geostrophic and quasi-static equilibrium approximations. In this paper, solitary Rossby waves induced by linear topography in barotropic fluids with a shear flow are studied. In order to simplify the problem, the topography is taken as a linear function of latitude variable y, then employing a weakly nonlinear method and a perturbation method, a KdV (Korteweg-de Vries) equation describing evolution of the amplitude of solitary Rossby waves induced by linear topography is derived. The results show that the variation of linear topography can induce the solitary Rossby waves in barotropic fluids with a shear flow, and extend the classical geophysical theory of fluid dynamics.

热带太平洋次表层海温变化及其与ENSO循环的研究

随着全球变暖和各种极端天气事件发生频率的增加，气候变化已成为全世界关注的焦点问题，ENSO事件是年际尺度上气候变化的最强信号，它的影响波及到世界各地，所以，对ENSO事件进行深入研究，弄清其发生机制，具有重要的科学意义。虽然，目前对ENSO事件的研究已经取得了巨大成果，但仍不能对其发生发展的全过程进行准确的预测，因此，仍需要对其进行深入研究，本文正是从热带太平洋次表层温度场和流场的变化着手，对ENSO循环过程中的相关机理进行研究。 通过对TOGA/TAO、SODA和NCEP等海洋大气实测和再分析资料的分析，研究了热带太平洋次表层海温和流场的变化特征，分析了它们的变化机理，进而深入探讨了它们与ENSO事件的相互关系，并利用全球海洋数值模式的敏感性试验，探讨了大气风场的变化对海洋次表层要素的影响，主要得到以下结论： 1. 上世纪70年代末的气候突变之后，用28℃定义西太平洋暖池（WPWP），已不能合理的描述WPWP的基本特征。我们通过对比分析提出，用28.5℃来定义WPWP更合理，这一定义即可以充分反映WPWP突变前的特征，又能够合理的反映WPWP突变后的特征；对新定义的WPWP区域不同深度的海温距平的分析表明，次表层（148m）海温距平的变化趋势和变化幅度与表层和深层的变化差异较大，次表层海温的变化幅度最大并且年代际变化趋势与上下层正好相反；进一步的研究表明，WPWP次表层海温的年代际变化与PDO的变化有一定关系。 2. 利用热带太平洋次表层海温的变化特征，定义了表征ENSO事件的新指数——赤道太平洋温跃层海温振荡指数（EPOI），与其它ENSO指数相比，EPOI将东、西太平洋次表层海温的变化信息都包括在内，能够较全面的反映出ENSO事件的变化特征，特别是EPOI可以较好的反映出ENSO循环的年代际变化特征。另外，EPOI的变化比ONI的变化超前2个月，更有利于对ENSO事件的提前预报。由于EPOI主要反映海洋次表层的变化特征，因此能够更好的满足对ENSO机理研究的需要。 3. 赤道潜流距平场的EOF分析表明，其前两个模态的方差贡献较大，第一模态方差贡献为30.75%，主要反映东太平洋赤道潜流的变化特征；第二模态方差贡献为16.18%，主要反映中太平洋赤道潜流的变化特征。赤道潜流前两个模态与ENSO指数的变化有很好的相关关系，其中东太平洋潜流在滞后ENSO指数1个月时，二者达到最大负相关（r=-0.74）。中太平洋赤道潜流的变化对“东部型”和“中部型”El Niño事件的形成有一定影响。“东部型”El Niño事件发生前，中太平洋赤道潜流异常增强，次表层异常海温信号随着潜流中心迅速向东移动到达东太平洋，使得“东部型”El Niño事件爆发；而“中部型”El Niño事件发生前，中太平洋赤道潜流则异常减弱，西太平洋异常海温信号不能迅速向东传播，而是在中西太平洋堆积并向上扩展，使得异常海温首先在中太平洋出现，“中部型”El Niño事件爆发。 4. ENSO循环过程中，异常冷（暖）信号之所以在8ºN-10ºN附近向西传播的原因较多，其中温跃层深度在8ºN-10ºN的特殊分布特征对其有一定贡献，具体表现为在北半球8ºN-10ºN正好是温跃层深度较浅的区域，该区域的温跃层相当于从东到西的一个海下“山脊”，使得来自南北两侧的异常信号都很难穿过这一区域，而只能沿该纬度向西传播；而南半球的温跃层对来自赤道地区的异常信号没有阻挡作用，使其可以直接传播到高纬度地区。ENSO信号的强度在传播过程中发生了明显的变化，主要是ENSO事件爆发后，4-5年的周期信号并没有传到东太平洋10ºN附近，在从东到西的传播过程中，4-5年的周期信号有所增加，但增加的幅度较小。在西太平洋有来自南、北半球中高纬度异常信号的补充，从而使得ENSO循环得以维持。 5. 数值模拟表明，不同区域风应力的变化对海洋的影响各不相同。赤道地区风应力对海洋的影响主要通过纬向分量的变化来产生作用，它的变化主要对赤道次表层海温的变化产生影响，并且东西太平洋呈现反位相变化趋势；而对流场的影响则是上下层反位相变化。北太平洋副热带地区风应力的变化对海洋的影响与赤道有明显不同，对温度场的影响表现为东西太平洋次表层海温的变化一致，而对流速的影响则是东西太平洋反位相变化。

海湾扇贝遗传图谱构建及壳色基因、生长相关QTL的定位研究

本研究利用AFLP和微卫星标记，以海湾扇贝杂交F1为作图群体，构建了海湾扇贝的遗传连锁图谱，并对壳色决定基因和与生长性状相关的QTL进行了定位。 共用55对AFLP引物组合对亲本和88个子代个体进行扩增，共得到了2424个位点，多态性位点为392个，占所有标记的16.17％。其中，母本标记121个，父本标记196个，共有标记75个。经卡方检验，共有331个标记（84.4%）符合孟德尔分离比，61个标记（15.6％）出现偏分离现象。偏分离标记中，36个（59％）为纯合子缺失。从35对微卫星引物中筛选出了10对多态性引物，得到了5个母本标记和6个父本标记。另外，将表现为质量性状的壳色标记作为形态标记一同进行连锁图谱构建。 分别利用母本和父本标记构建了海湾扇贝雌性和雄性连锁图谱。其中，共有包括109个AFLP标记、5个微卫星标记和1个壳色标记组成了雌性图谱的框架图，分布于16个连锁群。图谱总长度为338.8cM，平均间隔为5.29cM，图谱覆盖率为65.82％。雄性连锁图谱框架图共定位了186个标记，包括181个AFLP标记、5个微卫星标记，壳色标记未实现定位。图谱包括17个连锁群，总长度为780.3cM，平均间隔为6.56cM，图谱覆盖率为78.11％。通过SSR12位点的定位结果，可以将雌性图谱第7连锁群与雄性图谱17连锁群对应起来。 壳色标记定位在了雌性图谱第九连锁群上，说明橙色基因位点为杂合。我们将壳色基因命名为Orange1，两个标记——F1f335和D8f420与这一基因之间图距为0。在家系和群体中初步验证，这两个标记与壳色基因紧密或完全连锁。 共定位了16个与生长相关的QTL，它们分布于雌性图谱的2、3、5连锁群和雄性图谱的4、5、6、7、8连锁群上。每个QTL均发现了与其图距非常接近的分子标记（0.01-2.51％）。其中壳长、壳高、壳宽三个长度指标QTL成簇分布或部分重叠，可一同作为选择性指标，壳重和全湿重QTL位点也比较相近。只有软体部重位点单独分布，可能具有相对独立的遗传基础。
