Water in silicate glasses

The speciation of water in a variety of hydrous silicate glasses, including simple and rhyolitic compositions, synthesized over a range of experimental conditions with up to 11 weight percent water has been determined using infrared spectroscopy. This technique has been calibrated with a series of standard glasses and provides a precise and accurate method for determining the concentrations of molecular water and hydroxyl groups in these glasses.

For all the compositions studied, most of the water is dissolved as hydroxyl groups at total water contents less than 3-4 weight percent; at higher total water contents, molecular water becomes the dominant species. For total water contents above 3-4 weight percent, the amount of water dissolved as hydroxyl groups is approximately constant at about 2 weight percent and additional water is incorporated as molecular water. Although there are small but measurable differences in the ratio of molecular water to hydroxyl groups at a given total water content among these silicate glasses, the speciation of water is similar over this range of composition. The trends in the concentrations of the H-bearing species in the hydrous glasses included in this study are similar to those observed in other silicate glasses using either infrared or NMR spectroscopy.

The effects of pressure and temperature on the speciation of water in albitic glasses have been investigated. The ratio of molecular water to hydroxyl groups at a given total water content is independent of the pressure and temperature of equilibration for albitic glasses synthesized in rapidly quenching piston cylinder apparatus at temperatures greater than 1000°C and pressures greater than 8 kbar. For hydrous glasses quenched from melts cooled at slower rates (i.e., in internally heated or in air-quench cold seal pressure vessels), there is an increase in the ratio of molecular water to hydroxyl group content that probably reflects reequilibration of the melt to lower temperatures during slow cooling.

Molecular water and hydroxyl group concentrations in glasses provide information on the dissolution mechanisms of water in silicate liquids. Several mixing models involving homogeneous equilibria of the form H_2O + O = 20H among melt species have been explored for albitic melts. These models can account for the measured species concentrations if the effects of non-ideal behavior or mixing of polymerized units are included, or by allowing for the presence of several different types of anhydrous species.

A thermodynamic model for hydrous albitic melts has been developed based on the assumption that the activity of water in the melt is equal to the mole fraction of molecular water determined by infrared spectroscopy. This model can account for the position of the watersaturated solidus of crystalline albite, the pressure and temperature dependence of the solubility of water in albitic melt, and the volumes of hydrous albitic melts. To the extent that it is successful, this approach provides a direct link between measured species concentrations in hydrous albitic glasses and the macroscopic thermodynamic properties of the albite-water system.

The approach taken in modelling the thermodynamics of hydrous albitic melts has been generalized to other silicate compositions. Spectroscopic measurements of species concentrations in rhyolitic and simple silicate glasses quenched from melts equilibrated with water vapor provide important constraints on the thermodynamic properties of these melt-water systems. In particular, the assumption that the activity of water is equal to the mole fraction of molecular water has been tested in detail and shown to be a valid approximation for a range of hydrous silicate melts and the partial molar volume of water in these systems has been constrained. Thus, the results of this study provide a useful thermodynamic description of hydrous melts that can be readily applied to other melt-water systems for which spectroscopic measurements of the H-bearing species are available.

Structural and up-conversion luminescence properties in Tm (3+)/Yb3+-codoped heavy metal oxide-halide glasses

Tm3+/Yb3+-codoped heavy metal oxide-halide glasses have been synthesized by conventional melting and quenching method. Structural properties were obtained based on the Raman spectra, indicating that halide ion has an important influence on the phonon density and maximum phonon energy of host glasses. Intense blue and weak red emissions centered at 477 and 650 nm, corresponding to the transitions (1)G(4) -> H-3(6) and (1)G(4) -> H-3(4), respectively, were observed at room temperature. The possible up-conversion mechanisms are discussed and estimated. With increasing halide content, the up-conversion luminescence intensity and blue luminescence lifetimes of Tm3+ ion increase notably. Our results show that with the substitution of halide ion for oxygen ion, the decrease of phonon density and maximum phonon energy of host glasses both contribute to the enhanced up-conversion emissions.

This paper reports that the TM3+:Lu2SiO5 (Tm:LSO) crystal is grown by Czochralski technique. The room-temperature absorption spectra of Tm:LSO crystal are measured on a b-cut sample with 4 at.% thulium. According to the obtained Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters Omega(2)=9.3155 x 10(-20) cm(2), Omega(4)=8.4103 x 10(-20) cm(2), Omega(6)=1.5908 x 10(-20) cm(2), the fluorescence lifetime is calculated to be 2.03 ms for F-3(4) -> H-3(6) transition, and the integrated emission cross section is 5.81 x 10(-18) cm(2). Room-temperature laser action near 2 mu m under diode pumping is experimentally evaluated in Tm:LSO. An optical-optical conversion efficiency of 9.1% and a slope efficiency of 16.2% are obtained with continuous-wave maximum output power of 0.67 W. The emission wavelengths of Tm:LSO laser are centred around 2.06 mu m with spectral bandwidth of similar to 13.6 nm.

Caracterização ambiental preliminar de um sistema rio estuário tropical em área de Mata Atlântica, Ilha Grande (RJ).

O presente trabalho visa contribuir para a valorização e conservação dos cursos dágua e biodiversidade em área de Mata Atlântica no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, através da caracterização ambiental preliminar do sistema rio - estuário Córrego Andorinhas, localizado no Parque Estadual da Ilha Grande (RJ), utilizando indicadores abióticos e bióticos. As amostragens ocorreram de 20/10/11 a 22/10/11, pela manhã e tarde, em duas profundidades de três estações. O fitoplâncton e protozooplâncton foram coletados com frascos de polipropileno (500 ml), fixados com formaldeído 2% neutralizado com bórax e analisados em câmaras de sedimentação de Uthermöl. O zooplâncton foi coletado com rede de 68 μm de malha, fixado com formaldeído 4% neutralizado com bórax e analisado em subamostras. Variáveis abióticas foram analisadas in situ com sondas. Os nutrientes foram coletados com garrafa de Van Dorn e frascos de polipropileno, congeladas e levadas para análise no laboratório de Geoquímica da UFF. A estação AN-01 apresentou menores valores de temperatura da água (19 C), condutividade (2,3 μS/cm) e turbidez (1,1 UNT), mas com maiores valores de OD (9,6 mg/L). Maiores valores de turbidez (6,9 UNT) e pH (7,7) foram registrados na estação AN-02, enquanto a estação AN-03 apresentou maiores valores de temperatura da água (23,7 C) e condutividade (1951 μS/cm). O fitoplâncton apresentou valores máximos nas estações AN-02 manhã em 22/10/11 (4,28 x 103 ind/L) e AN-03 tarde em 20/10/11(3,4 x 103 ind/L). O zooplâncton apresentou valores máximos na estação AN-03 manhã (421,2 x 103 ind/L) e tarde (45,8 x 103 ind/L). Os valores máximos registrados para protozooplâncton foram registrados nas estações AN-02 manhã em 22/10/11 (35,1 x 103 ind/L) tarde em 21/10/11 (12,6 x 103 ind/L). A partir dos dados abióticos, caracterizou-se o sistema como oligo-mesotrófico, com características distintas em seus pontos de coleta: A dominância de sarcodinos, diatomáceas e calanóides, em riqueza e densidade, demonstram o caráter estuarino, pois protozoários são indicadores de ambientes lóticos continentais, calanóides de ambientes marinhos e diatomáceas representantes de ambos os ambientes. Este estudo preliminar demonstrou a integridade ambiental do estuário, fato que reflete em sua preservação e da Mata Atlântica em seu entorno.

水稻RAD21/REC8家族基因OsRAD21-3的功能研究

有丝分裂和减数分裂包含一系列协同作用的事件，姊妹染色体的黏着是其中非常重要的一个环节。通过对芽殖酵母的研究发现姊妹染色体的黏着是由一个多亚基的蛋白复合体——黏着素介导的，在有丝分裂过程中，黏着素由Scc1（裂殖酵母中为Rad21）、Scc3、Smc1和Smc3四个亚基组成，而在减数分裂中Scc1被其同源蛋白Rec8所取代。通过对其它真核生物包括线虫、果蝇、爪蟾、鼠、人以及拟南芥等进行的研究显示，黏着素介导的姊妹染色体黏着的基本机制在真核生物中具有保守性，但在不同的物种中，其具体的分子机制还存在着差异。开花植物的有性生殖过程包含了一个非常特殊的花粉发育阶段，其间发生了两次花粉的有丝分裂，对其我们还知之甚少。Rad21/Rec8作为黏着素的重要组分，对水稻中它的同源蛋白进行深入研究可以帮助我们对植物有丝分裂和减数分裂的染色体黏着机制有进一步的了解。 我们发现在水稻基因组中存在4个编码Rad21/Rec8家族蛋白的基因，其中OsRAD21-3位于水稻第8号染色体上，其编码的蛋白与其它的Rad21/Rec8家族蛋白一样，具有保守的N-和C-末端结构域。序列比对和进化分析的结果表明OsRad21-3蛋白属于Rad21亚家族，而免疫荧光定位分析显示OsRad21-3可以特异地定位于有丝分裂的染色体上，由此说明OsRAD21-3应当是酵母RAD21的直系同源基因。对OsRAD21-3进行半定量RT-PCR，Western杂交以及原位杂交的结果显示它在生殖器官花中优势表达，在营养器官中也能检测到表达。在花中它在从雌雄蕊形成期到成熟花粉期都有表达，其表达的位置主要位于减数分裂时期的小孢子母细胞以及减数分裂后的小孢子和花粉中。在水稻四个RAD21/REC8基因中，OsRAD21-3是唯一一个在花粉发育过程中表达的基因，说明它可能在减数分裂后的雄配子体发育过程中发挥了功能。 采用RNAi手段对OsRAD21-3的功能进行研究发现OsRAD21-3 RNAi转基因水稻植株的育性显著下降，进一步的分析表明其花粉活性受到严重影响。对OsRAD21-3i株系的雄性减数分裂过程及减数分裂后的小孢子和花粉发育过程进行观察发现，减数分裂过程中有少量细胞存在染色体的异常行为，但总体上没有对雄性减数分裂造成严重影响，而减数分裂后的小孢子和花粉发育过程则出现了显著异常，表现为花粉有丝分裂的停滞或有丝分裂染色体分离的扰乱，因此，OsRAD21-3应当主要是通过在花粉的有丝分裂过程中发挥功能而参与减数分裂后的雄配子体发育过程，而它在雄性减数分裂过程中可能也有一定作用。 利用原位杂交技术分析了水稻另外三个RAD21/REC8基因的表达特性，结果表明OsRAD21-1、OsRAD21-2和OsRAD21-4都在减数分裂前及减数分裂期的小孢子母细胞中表达，但在减数分裂后较晚时期的小孢子中则没有检测到表达。OsRAD21-4在小孢子母细胞中的表达为其参与减数分裂过程染色体的黏着提供了证据，而OsRAD21-1和OsRAD21-2在此过程中的功能还有待进一步研究。此外，OsRAD21-1和OsRAD21-2还在营养器官有丝分裂旺盛的区域表达，OsRAD21-1作为RAD21的同源基因可能与OsRAD21-3在参与有丝分裂染色体黏着方面存在功能上的冗余性，但OsRAD21-3参与花粉的发育过程则是其所特有的，这可能也在一定程度上说明了为什么水稻中会存在4个RAD21/REC8基因，并帮助我们更好地了解了它们在功能上的分化。
