Tunable optical properties of nano-Au on vanadium dioxide

The optical properties of Au nanoparticles deposited on thermochromic thin films of VO2 are investigated using spectroscopy. A localized modification on the transmittance spectrum of VO2 film is formed due to the presence of Au nanoparticles which exhibit localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in the visible-near IR region. The position of the modification wavelength region shows a strong dependence on the Au mass thickness and shifts toward the red as it increases. On the other hand, it was found that the LSPR of Au nanoparticles can be thermally tunable because of the thermochromism of the supporting material of VO2. The LSPR wavelength, lambda(SPR), shifts to the blue with increasing temperature, and shifts back to the red as temperature decreases. A fine tuning is achieved when the temperature is increased in a stepwise manner.

Nano-Ag on vanadium dioxide. I. Localized spectrum tailoring

We report on the utilization of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of Ag nanoparticles to tailor the optical properties Of VO2 thin film. Interaction of nano-Ag with incident light yields a salient absorption band in the visible-near IR region and modifies the spectrum Of VO2 locally. The wavelength of modification occurs in a limited spectral region rather than affects the full spectrum. The wavelength of modification shows a strong dependence on the metal nanoparticle size and shifts toward the red as the particle size or the mass thickness of nano-Ag increases. Also, we found that the wavelength can be shifted into the IR further by introducing a thin layer of TiO2 onto the nano-Ag. Interestingly, with the help of LSPR effects the VO2 film exhibits an anomalous thermochromic behavior in the modification wavelength region, which may be useful in optical switching applications.

Nano-Ag on vanadium dioxide. II. Thermal tuning of surface plasmon resonance

Thermal tuning of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of Ag nanoparticles on a thermochromic thin film of VO2 was studied experimentally. The tuning is strongly temperature dependent and thermally reversible. The LSPR wavelength lambda(SPR) shifts to the blue with increasing temperature from 30 to 80 degrees C, and shifts back to the red as temperature decreases. A smart tuning is achievable on condition that the temperature is controlled in a stepwise manner. The tunable wavelength range depends on the particle size or the mass thickness of the metal nanoparticle film. Further, the tunability was found to be enhanced significantly when a layer of TiO2 was introduced to overcoat the Ag nanoparticles, yielding a marked sensitivity factor Delta lambda(SPR)/Delta n, of as large as 480 nm per refractive index unit (n) at the semiconductor phase of VO2.

离子液体在铈（IV）钍及稀土（III）萃取分离中的应用研究

本文对1-辛基-3-甲基咪唑六氟磷酸盐离子液体（[C8mim]PF6）在包头稀土矿分离钍以及攀西矿分离铈工艺中的应用作了初步探索。论文首先研究了伯胺N1923溶于离子液体对硫酸体系钍的萃取分离行为，考察了酸度、盐析剂浓度、萃取剂浓度等对N1923/IL萃取钍的影响，并与庚烷体系的萃取规律作了对比。在此基础上对萃取机理进行了探讨，提出了不同于分子溶剂体系的萃取机理，认为N1923/IL在水相有硫酸钠作为盐析剂时对钍的萃取为“胶束增溶”萃取机理。此外，钍对稀土的分离考察结果认为，虽然N1923/IL对钍的萃取效率降低，但在一定条件下钍对稀土仍能保持较高的分离系数。由此本文对N1923/IL应用于钍的分离实践作了初步评估。 论文的另外一部分工作研究了纯[C8mim]PF6及其与2-乙基己基膦酸二（2-乙基己基）酯（DEHEHP）的混合体系对硝酸铈（IV）的萃取性能。研究发现纯[C8mim]PF6本身对硝酸铈（IV）有良好的萃取选择性，机理考察结果认为铈（IV）的萃取是由于Ce4+离子在富硝酸根溶液中形成络阴离子Ce(NO3)62-并与离子液体的阴离子PF6—发生交换的结果。一种新型含铈离子液体[C8mim]2Ce(NO3)6的合成进一步证实了这一机理。反萃考察发现被萃入离子液相的铈（IV）用水可完全反萃，且萃取和反萃过程中因离子交换机理导致的离子液体流失可以通过添加适量离子液体组分的方法予以抑制。此外，本文考察了DEHEHP溶于[C8mim]PF6对于含氟硝酸体系铈（IV）的萃取行为，发现在一定条件下DEHEHP对铈（IV）的萃取能获得与分子溶剂中等同的萃取机理。在此基础上，采用DEHEHP/IL从氟碳铈矿分解液中进行分离铈和氟的研究，获得纯度为99.9%以上的纳米CeF3产品。由此我们提出一个将离子液体应用于攀西氟碳铈矿铈钍稀土分离流程的模型，为离子液体在稀土清洁分离流程中实现溶剂绿色化的目标提供了一个范例。

SPECTROSCOPIC INVESTIGATION OF HYDROGEN-DOPANT COMPLEXES IN BULK P-TYPE AND IMPLANTED N-TYPE CRYSTALLINE SILICON

Infrared absorption experiments have been performed on hydrogenated and deuterated bulk boron- and aluminum-doped-Si and implanted P, As, and Sb donors in silicon. A first evidence of complex formation in bulk p-type Si is obtained and the spectra confirm the anomalous 3.3-cm-1 deuterium frequency shift with respect to boron isotopes. The ratio of the D-B-11 and D-B-10 peak areas is found to be the same as that of the two boron isotopes natural abundance. In donor-implanted silicon, a quantitative analysis of the obtained data has allowed a rough estimate of the passivating rate due to diffusing deuterium. While the frequencies of the various vibrational lines are found to be in agreement with those reported in the literature, the data on the broad line at 1660 cm-1 (H) or 1220 cm-1 (D) seem to suggest an assignment of this peak to a complex in the bulk involving some type of defect due to the implantation process.
