Synthesis, mechanical and electrical properties of carbon microcoils and nanocoils

The results on the synthesis, mechanical and electrical properties of carbon microcoils and nanocoils (CMCs, CNCs) synthesized using catalytic CVD and Ni-P and Co-P catalyst alloys, respectively, are reported. SEM analysis reveals that the CMCs and CNCs have unique helical morphologies, and diameters of 5.0-9.0 μm and 450-550 nm, respectively. Moreover, CMCs with flat cross-section can be stretched to 3 times their original coil lengths. Current-voltage characteristics of a single microcoil have also been obtained. It is found that the CMCs have the electrical conductivity between 100 and 160 S/cm, whereas the electrical resistance increases by about 20% during the coil extension. Besides, the microcoils can produce light in vacuum when the test voltage reaches 10 V. The emission intensity increases as the voltage increases. The mechanical and electrical properties of CMCs and CNC make them potentially useful in many applications in micromagnetic sensors, mechanical microsprings and optoelectronics.

Activities in the $FeTiO_{3}-NiTiO_{3}$ Solid Solution from Alloy-Oxide Equilibria at 1273 K

Nine tie-lines between Fe-Ni alloys and FeTiO3-NiTiO3 solid solutions were determined at 1273 K. Samples were equilibrated in evacuated quartz ampoules for periods up to 10 days. Compositions of the alloy and oxide phases at equilibrium were determined by energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. X-ray powder diffraction was used to confirm the results. Attainment of equilibrium was verified by the conventional tie-line rotation technique and by thermodynamic analysis of the results. The tie-lines are skewed toward the FeTiO3 corner. From the tie-line data and activities in the Fe-Ni alloy phase available in the literature, activities of FeTiO3 and NiTiO3 in the ilmenite solid solution were derived using the modified Gibbs-Duhem technique of Jacob and Jeffes [K.T. Jacob and J.H.E. Jeffes, An Improved Method for Calculating Activities from Distribution Equilibria, High Temp. High Press., 1972, 4, p 177-182]. The components of the oxide solid solution exhibit moderate positive deviations from Raoult's law. Within experimental error, excess Gibbs energy of mixing for the FeTiO3-NiTiO3 solid solution at 1273 K is a symmetric function of composition and can be represented as: Delta G(E) = 8590 (+/- 200) X-FeTiO3 X-NiTiO3 J/mol Full spectrum of tie-lines and oxygen potentials for the three-phase equilibrium involving Fe-Ni alloys, FeTiO3-NiTiO3 solid solutions, and TiO2 at 1273 K were computed using results obtained in this study and data available in the literature.

Mossbauer-Effect Study Of The Thermal-Decomposition In Hydrogen Of Homogeneously Mixed Ferrous Nickel Oxalates With Different Iron To Nickel Ratios

Mossbauer effect and X-ray measurements are carried out on product samples of the thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and isothermal decomposition in hydrogen of homogeneously mixed ferrous nickel oxalates with different iron to nickel ratios. The formation of Fe-Ni alloy is obtained at considerably lower temperatures (z 300 "C) in each case. The Fe-Ni alloys obtained shift from iron-rich to nickel-rich composition as the nickel ratio in the mixed metal oxalates is increased. The formation of Pe-Ni Invar from mixed metal oxalate with Fe:Ni = 1:l is indicated in the early stages but not from those with Fe:Ni = 2: 1 or 64:36. An Produktproben von homogen verteilten Eisen-Nickeloxalaten mit unterschiedlichem Eisen- Nickel-Verhaltnis nach thermogravimetrischer Analyse (TGA) und isothermem Zerfall in Wasserst off werden Mollbauereffekt- und Rontgenmessnngen durchgefuhrt. In allen Fiillen wird die Bildung der Fe-Ni-Legierung bei betriichtlich niedrigeren Temperaturen (= 300 "C) erhalten. Die erhaltenen Fe-Ni-Legierungen verschieben sich von der eisenreichen zur nickelreichen Zusrtmmensetzung, wenn das Nickelverhaltnis in dem BIetall-Mischoxalat erhoht wird. Die Bildung der Fe-Ni-lnvar-Legierung aus dem Metall-Mischoxalat mit Fe:Ni = 1 : 1 wird in fruhen Zu Zustanden beobachtet, iedoch nicht aus Oxalaten mit Fe:Ni = 2:1 oder 64:36.

Conversion of isophenoxazine to catechol in Tecoma stans

Isophenoxazine, formed by the condensation of two molecules of o-aminophenol, is reduced by an enzyme system from Tecoma stans leaves to two molecules of catechol. The reaction proceeds well under anaerobic conditions; a 1–2 mole stoichiometry between the substrate disappeared and the product formed was maintained. The enzyme showed maximum activity at pH 5. The substrate at high concentrations caused a diminution in the activity and the optimum concentration of substrate was at 6 × 10−4 Image . The enzyme preparation was able to convert cinnabarinic acid and diphenylene dioxide 2,3-quinone into the corresponding catechol substances. The diphenylene dioxide 2,3-quinone at the same concentration was three times more susceptible to enzymic cleavage than isophenoxazine. Cinnabarinic acid inhibited the enzymic cleavage of isophenoxazine competitively. None of the known electron donors was found to activate the reaction. Inhibition studies suggested that intact sulfhydryl groups are necessary for enzyme activity. Heavy metal ions like Hg++, Ag+, Co++, Fe++, Ni++, and Fe3++ inhibited the reaction. Metal chelating agents did not have any effect on the enzyme.

Studies of phosphazenes. Part 34. group 6 metal carbonyl complexes of bis(pyrazolyl)cyclotriphosphazenes

Reactions of the bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)cyclotriphosphazenes gem-N3P3Ph4(C3HN2Me2)2 (L1) and N3P3(MeNCH2CH2O)2(C3HN2Me2)2 (L2) with [M(CO)6] (M = Mo or W) afford complexes of the type [M(CO)3L] (L = L1 or L2), which have been characterised by IR and NMR spectroscopic data. The structures of [Mo(CO)3L1], [W(CO)3L2] and the ligand L2 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The phosphazenes act as novel tridentate NNN-donor ligands with two pyrazolyl nitrogen atoms and one phosphazene ring nitrogen atom bonded to the metal atom

Low-Density Steels: The Effect of Al Addition on Microstructure and Properties

Density reduction of automotive steels is needed to reduce fuel consumption, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Aluminum addition has been found to be effective in making steels lighter. Such an addition does not change the crystal structure of the material. Steels modified with aluminum possess higher strength with very little compromise in ductility. In this work, different compositions of Fe-Al systems have been studied so that the desired properties of the material remain within the limit. A density reduction of approximately 10% has been achieved. The specific strength of optimal Fe-Al alloys is higher than conventional steels such as ultra-low-carbon steels.

New physical insights into the electromagnetic shielding efficiency in PVDF nanocomposites containing multiwall carbon nanotubes and magnetic nanoparticles

This work attempts to bring critical insights into the electromagnetic shielding efficiency in polymeric nanocomposites with respect to the particle size of magnetic nanoparticles added along with or without a conductive inclusion. To gain insight, various Ni-Fe (NixFe1-x; x = 10, 20, 40; Ni: nickel, Fe: iron) alloys were prepared by a vacuum arc melting process and different particle sizes were then achieved by a controlled grinding process for different time scales. Poly(vinylidene fluoride), PVDF based composites involving different particle sizes of the Ni-Fe alloy were prepared with or without multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) by a wet grinding approach. The Ni-Fe particles were thoroughly characterized with respect to their microstructure and magnetization; and the electromagnetic (EM) shielding efficiency (SE) of the resulting composites was obtained from the scattering parameters using a vector network analyzer in a broad range of frequencies. The saturation magnetization of Ni-Fe nanoparticles and the bulk electrical conductivity of PVDF/Ni-Fe composites scaled with increasing particle size of NiFe. Interestingly, the PVDF/Ni-Fe/MWNT composites showed a different trend where the bulk electrical conductivity and SE scaled with decreasing particle size of the Ni-Fe alloy. A total SE of similar to 35 dB was achieved with 50 wt% of Ni60Fe40 and 3 wt% MWNTs. More interestingly, the PVDF/Ni-Fe composites shielded the EM waves mostly by reflection whereas, the PVDF/Ni-Fe/MWNT shielded mostly by absorption. A minimum reflection loss of similar to 58 dB was achieved in the PVDF/Ni-Fe/MWNT composites in the X-band (8-12 GHz) for a particular size of Ni-Fe alloy nanoparticles. This study brings new insights into the EM shielding efficiency in PVDF/magnetic nanoparticle based composites in the presence and absence of conducting inclusion.

铁基合金激光熔覆组织及其冲击磨损性能

结果表明熔覆组织为过共晶组织,凝固领先相为M_7C_3碳化物,枝晶间共晶为γ-奥氏体M_7C_3,γ为具有较高合金元素过饱和含量的亚稳相,M_7C_3(M=Cr,Fe,W等)为六方结构的Cr基合金碳化物.高温时效过程中熔覆组织存在M_7C_3+γ→M_(23)C_6及M_7C_3+γ→M_6C的原位转变,同时在非平衡γ中析出M_(23)C_6、M_2C与MC碳化物.熔覆组织具有较高的显微硬度(HV920_(0.2)并存在显著的二次硬化特征,二次硬化峰值温度及峰值硬度分别为700℃及HV1160_(0.2).此外,熔覆组织还具有较高的冲击磨损性能.

Electrocatalytic reduction of dioxygen at chemically modified electrodes

The kinetics of the reduction of O₂ by Ru(NH₃)₆⁺² as catalyzed by cobalt(II) tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphyrin are described both in homogeneous solution and when the reactants are confined to Nafion coatings on graphite electrodes. The catalytic mechanism is determined and the factors that can control the total reduction currents at Nafion-coated electrodes are specified. A kinetic zone diagram for analyzing the behavior of catalyst-mediator-substrate systems at polymer coated electrodes is presented and utilized in identifying the current-limiting processes. Good agreement is demonstrated between calculated and measured reduction currents at rotating disk electrodes. The experimental conditions that will yield the optimum performance of coated electrodes are discussed, and a relationship is derived for the optimal coating thickness.

The relation between the reduction potentials of adsorbed and unadsorbed cobalt(III) tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphyrin and those where it catalyzes the electroreduction of dioxygen is described. There is an unusually large change in the formal potential of the Co(III) couple upon the adsorption of the porphyrin on the graphite electrode surface. The mechanism in which the (inevitably) adsorbed porphyrin catalyzes the reduction of O₂ is in accord with a general mechanistic scheme proposed for most monomeric cobalt porphyrins.

Four new dimeric metalloporphyrins (prepared in the laboratory of Professor C. K. Chang) have the two porphyrin rings linked by an anthracene bridge attached to meso positions. The electrocatalytic behavior of the diporphyrins towards the reduction of O₂ at graphite electrodes has been examined for the following combination of metal centers: Co-Cu, Co-Fe, Fe-Fe, Fe-H₂. The Co-Cu diporphyrin catalyzes the reduction of O₂ to H₂O₂ but no further. The other three catalysts all exhibit mixed reduction pathways leading to both H₂O₂ and H₂O. However, the pathways that lead to H₂O do not involve H₂O₂ as an intermediate. A possible mechanistic scheme is offered to account for the observed behavior.

催化消除NO_x复合氧化物催化剂的研究

氮的氧化物(NOx)是大气中的一种重要的污染物，是酸雨的主要来源，目前氮氧化物的无毒处理已经是国际环保研究中最关键的课题之一。本论文选择了两种复合氧化物：一种是钙钛石结构的含Cu的层状复合氧化物；另一种是以水滑石为前体经焙烧后得的复合氧化物为催化剂对它们的物化性质和对催化消除NOx的活性进行了系统的研究，得到了一些有意义的结果。第一部分：钙钛石型结构的含Cu层状复合氧化物钙钛石复合氧化物由于具有独特的物理化学性质，长期以来一直受到固态物理、固体化学和催化领域的科技工作者的重视。尤其近年来对它们在催化消除NOx反应中的活性的研究引起了催化工作者的极大兴趣，这是由于，一方面，钙钛石类复合氧化物对处理NOx的反应活性比较高，有希望取代贵金属催化剂；另一方面，探讨复合氧化物的固态物理、化学性质与处理NOx反应催化性能的关系，有利于揭示处理NOx反应的催化作用本质，为寻找高效实用的催化剂提供理论依据。本论文系统研究了三个系列含Cu钙钛石型复合氧化物的固态物理化学性质和对NO-CO反应的催化性能，并讨论了二者的关系。主要的工作和结论如下：1) 以La_2CuO_4为模型化合物研究了制备方法对它的性质的影响：用四种制备方法：柠檬酸络合爆炸法，聚乙二醇凝胶法，聚丙烯酰胺凝胶法，DTPA络合法合成了La_2CuO_4。比较了四种方法的特点，和制备方法对La_2Cu0_4的结构的影响，并对所得La_2CuO_4在NO-CO反应中的催化活性的影响进行了研究。结果发现聚乙二醇凝胶法和DTPA络合法有利于形成好的晶形，而聚乙二醇凝胶法和聚丙烯酰胺凝胶法对NO-CO反应有较好的活性，这是由于由不同制备方法得到的样品中的缺陷的种类和含量不I司所致。2) La_(1-x)Ba_xCuO_(3-λ)系列中Ba含量对它的性质的影响：用柠檬酸络合法合成了LaBa_2Cu_3O_(7-λ)，LaBaCu_2O_(5-λ)，La_2BaCu_3O_(7-λ) La_4BaCu_5O_(13-λ)及YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-λ)五种钙钛石结构的复合氧化物。XRD分析表明此系列样品均为层状ABO_3结构（分别为二，三，五层）。用XPS和O_2-TPD对样品中的氧种进行了研究，结果显示样品中存在着两种活性氧种：α氧种和β氧种。在O_2-TPD中低温脱附的是α氧种，它可归属于化学吸附氧与样品中的氧空位的浓度有关。β氧种的脱附温度较高，它归属于晶格氧。利用H_2-TPR和化学分析的手段对样品中的金属离子和活性氧的稳定性进行了表征。结果显示大量的氧空位和Cu~(3+)存在于样品中，并且它们的浓度受Ba离子浓度的影响。此系列样品对CO还原NO的活性研究表明：它们的活性远远高于结构类似的Ln_2CuO_4和Ln_2NiO_4等复合氧化物，在低于300 ℃时N0转化率已接近100％．分析结果表明Cu~(3+)和氧空位对活性起很重要的作用。Ba离子的作用是：一方面使含Cu的ABO_3结构稳定；另一方面使样品更容易吸附NO。3) La_4BaCu_5O_(13-λ)中Mn或C0逐步取代Cu对样品性质的影响合成了两系列分别由Mn或Co逐步取代Cu的样品，XRD分析表明它们仍旧是钙钛石结构。通过XPS，O_2-TPD和化学分析方法对样品中的活性氧种进行了表征，结果表明，当Mn逐步取代Cu离子时，晶格氧增加，而吸附氧开始变化较小，当Mn含量大于Cu含量时，吸附氧迅速减少。在Co取代样品的O_(1s)的XPS谱中，氧种变化较Mn取代的小，这表明Co离子对样品中的氧空位含量的影响较Mn离子的小。氧化还原性能的研究表明当Cu离子被Mn或Co离子部分取代后，Cu离子变得更容易被还原，这表明Cu-M(Mn或CO)之间发生了协同作用，使Cu离子更活泼。当Mn或Co部分取代Cu离子之后，样品对CO还原NO反应的催化活性明显提高，当取代含量达到一定程度时（即X ≥ 3），催化活性迅速降低，这表明Cu离子在反应中起着很重要的作用，经过分析我们认为反应机理如下：Cu~(3+)-O~=-Cu~(3+) + CO → Cu~(2+)-□-Cu~(2+)+CO_2 Cu~(2+)-□-Cu~(2+) → Cu~(3+)-□-Cu~(2+) Cu~(3+)-□-Cu~(2+) + NO~-Cu~(3+)-NO-Cu~(2+) 2Cu~(3+)-NO-Cu~(2+) → 2Cu~(3+)-O~=-Cu~(3+) + N_2 式中□是氧空位，Cu~(3+)-□ 是F心。掺杂部分Mn或Co后，催化活性的提高可以归属于Cu-M之间发生的协同作用使Cu离子更活泼，表征结果表明Cu-Co之间的协同作用较Cu-Mn之间的弱（这可能是由于Co，Cu之间化学性质相似），但掺杂Co的样品的活性较掺杂Mn的要高，同时我们在反应中发现，Co含量较高的样品中反应产物中N_2O比掺杂Mn的样品高出许多，因此我们认为Co离子对反应中反应中间产物N_2O的生成比Mn离子要活性。第二部分以水滑石化合物为前体的复合氧化物水滑石类化合物属于一种阴离子粘土，由带正电荷的金属氧化物／氢氧化物和层间阴离子及水分子组成。以水滑石为母体经焙烧制得的氧化物催化剂用于氧化反应的实例尚不多，且大多用于液相催化反应。最近有文献报道含Co，Cu，Ni水滑石经焙烧后对N_2O分解有很好的活性，但还没有关于此类化合物应用于NO还原和分解的文献报道。我们首次将以水滑石为母体经焙烧制得的尖晶石催化剂用于催化消除NO_x的反应中，考察和表征了变更过渡金属离子时Co-M-Al系列和Mg-M-Al系列催化剂在CO还原NO，NO吸附和NO分解反应中的活性。1) 以Mg-M-Al水滑石为前体的催化剂用共沉淀法合成了一系列Mg-M-Al水滑石（M = Cr，Fe，Mn，Co，Ni，Cu；Mg/M/A1 = 3/1/1）。XRD表征表明所有化合物均为典型的水滑石化合物。通过TG-DTA考察了焙烧对样品的结构和组成的影响。450 ℃焙烧后所有样品的XRD图中仅能发现MgO相，表明过渡金属氧化物均匀地分散在MgO-Al_2O_3中，换句话说，所得样品焙烧后是过渡金属氧化物负载在MgO-Al_2O_3载体上。H_2-TPR研究进一步证实过渡金属氧化物在载体上得到了稳定。此系列样品对C0还原N0反应活性的测定表明Mg-Al-Cu样品表现出远远高于其它样品的活性，而Mg-Al和Mg-Ni-Al在550 ℃以下对反应几乎没有活性，其它样品表现出一定的活性。2) 以Co-M-Al水滑石为前体的催化剂体系经共沉淀法合成了Co-M-Al水滑石（M = 过渡金属），经焙烧后发现样品中有尖晶石相出现。比表面研究表明，在500-700 ℃之间比表面变化较小大约在80m~2/g左右，在更高温度焙烧后比表面迅速下降。此系列样品对NO的吸附性能研究表明Co-Al，C0-Ni-Al，Co-Cr-Al，Co-Fe-Al表现出较高的吸附性能，尤其是Co-Ni-Al在100 ℃对NO表现出100％的吸附；其它样品对NO的吸附较低。用过渡金属离子中d轨道电子在吸附前后的晶体场稳定化能的变化可以很好地解释此系列样品对NO的吸附性能。对NO分解的活性测定表明Co-Ni-A1，Co-Cr-A1和Co-Al表现出了较好的活性，其中Co-Ni-Al的活性最高。其它样品在600 ℃以下几乎没有活性。分析结果表明样品对NO分解有活性的催化剂必须具备两个条件：1：对NO有较好的吸附性能；2: NO分解后产生的氧可以容易的脱附。除Co-Al外，所有样品对CO还原NO表现出很高的活性：在150 ℃即有较高的NO转化率，在180 ℃NO转化率即可达到100％。催化剂的氧化还原性能在反应中起着很重要的作用，H_2-TPR研究发现掺杂其它过渡金属后Co离子的还原温度明显降低，表明Co离子得到了活化。3) 以Co-Cu-Al水滑石为前体的样品用共沉淀法合成了一系列Co/Cu/Al含量不同的水滑石化合物，包括Co/Cu/Al分别为7/1/1，3/1/1及1/1/1和仅含Co或Cu的Co/Al = 3/1，Cu/Al = 3/1等一系列样品。XRD结果表明除Cu-Al外其它样品经焙烧后均出现了尖晶石相。Cu-Al样品经焙烧后出现了CuO相表明样品为CuO负载于Al_2O_3上。NO和CO的TPD研究表明三组份样品对NO和CO的吸附明显高于二组份样品，而且含CO量高的样品对NO和CO的吸附能力更好，表明Co起较强的作用。在三组份样品的NO-TPD脱出物中发现有N_2O和N_2，表明NO在样品表面的吸附为活化吸附。对CO还原NO反应活性的研究表明，三组份样品的活性远远高于二组份样品，且含Co量高的样品活性较高，表明在此系列样品中Co离子起决定性作用，而Cu离子起助催化作用。通过对反应中各组份含量的变化分析，我们认为反应机理如下：CO + O-Cat → CO_2 + □-Cat NO + □-Cat → NO-Cat 2(NO-Cat) → N_2O + O-Cat + □-Cat N_2O + □-Cat → N_2O-Cat N_2_O-Cat → N_2 + O-Cat 2(N_2O-Cat) → N_2 + 2(O-Cat) O-Cat是样品中的晶格氧，在Co-Al中加入其它过渡金属离子使样品中的晶格氧得到活化，因此，催化活性得到提高。用以水滑石为前体，共沉淀法和固相反应法等三种制备方法合成了一系列Co-Cu-Al催化剂，发现以水滑石为前体的样品不论是对NO，CO的吸附性能还是对NO-CO反应的催化活性都远远高于其它方法制备的样品，这可能是由于水滑石可以起到一个模版作用，使Cu, Co离子分散的更均匀，以及使催化剂表面的含氧基团丰富。

ZnO基稀磁半导体的制备与性质研究

本论文利用溶胶一凝胶法和水热法制备了不同离子（Eu~3＋，Sm~3＋，Mn~2＋，Fe~3＋，Co~2＋，Ni~2＋）作为磁性杂质的ZnO基稀磁半导体，并系统地研究了材料的薄膜、粉末和纳米结构的结晶特性、结构形态和光、电、磁性质。溶胶一凝胶法制备的薄膜的晶体为c轴取向生长的六方纤维锌矿结构。薄膜的取向生长受烧结气氛、烧结温度和掺杂离子浓度的影响，其中烧结气氛是影响薄膜取向生长的最直接、最显著因素。随着烧结气氛中氧含量的减小，薄膜的沿c轴生长的趋势加强。此外，烧结温度的提高也增强薄膜沿c轴生长的趋势，但掺杂离子浓度的增加却抑制薄膜的c轴取向生长特性。通过薄膜表面形态的研究发现，在空气中烧结的薄膜由立方晶粒构成，而在真空中烧结的样品则由不规则的片状晶粒组成。组成薄膜的多晶颗粒粒径小于10Onm，15层薄膜的膜厚为357-366nm。掺杂离子在薄膜中均匀分布，成膜过程不改变掺杂离子（Eu3+，Sm3＋，Mn2+，Fe3＋，Co2＋，Ni2＋）和基质离子（Zn2+和O2-）的价态。 不同Eu3+掺杂浓度的ZnO薄膜样品的吸收光谱的吸收边出现在363nm和368nm之间，对应半导体材料的禁带宽度Eg=3.42～3.40ev。由于Eu3＋改变了薄膜的表面性质，Zn1-xEux（0.005≤x≤0.15）薄膜在可见光区出现了一系列干涉带。Zn1-xTMxO薄膜的吸收光谱的吸收边位置出现在356nm-369nm，对应半导体的禁带宽度为3.34-3.46eV，在可见光区发现了Co2＋的电子的d-d跃迁引起的吸收带。随着掺杂浓度的增加，薄膜的透光率逐渐减小。Zn1-xCoxO薄膜在近紫外与可见光区的透光率都在60％以上，Zn1-xEuxO薄膜的透光率则高达90％。在Zn1-xEuxO薄膜的激发发射光谱中，以613nm作为监控波长，激发光谱除了检测到Eu3＋的7F→5D能级的吸收跃迁外，还检测到最大值位于378nm附近的ZnO的吸收带。以394nm为激发波长，发射光谱检测到Eu3+的5D0→7FJ（J＝1，2，3，4）跃迁。以zno的带隙能量378nm作为激发波长进行激发，检测到Eu3+的5D0→7F2跃迁，说明基质zno和E矿十之间存在能量交换。薄膜磁性测试在4-400K温度范围内进行，发现在此温度范围内Zn0.9Eu0.1O薄膜表现居里一外斯顺磁性；在低温区，存在磁性增强现象。zno．gCoo．IO薄膜在23oK以下表现为铁磁性，200K的M-H曲线显示薄膜的剩磁（Br）约为0．21em侧g，矫顽力（Hc）约为327Oe。但Zn0.9Mn0.1O，Zn0.9Ni0.1O，Zn0.9Co0.1O薄膜的磁性测试则显示在80K以上三种薄膜均表现为顺磁性。Zn0.9Eu0.1O薄膜的电阻呈现典型的半导体性质，在ZT的磁场下，薄膜在110K获得最大14.53％的磁阻率。Zn1-xTMxO薄膜的电阻也表现典型的半导体特性，实验研究了薄膜在不同掺杂离子浓度、外加磁场以及温度条件下的磁阻性质。粉末样品中磁性离子的掺杂浓度均小于薄膜样品。Co，Fe，Ni，Mn掺杂的Zn1-xTMxO粉末在80以上均为顺磁性。在Co2＋掺杂的粉末样品中没有发现类似于薄膜样品的铁磁性，说明DMS的磁性与制备条件关系密切。实验证明了利用sol-gel方法，Zno：TM稀磁半导体能够有效地组装在MCM-41和AAO的孔道内。ZnO:TM材料组装进在MCM-41孔道后，不改变孔道的六方结构但使孔径变小。随着组装次数的增加，MCM-41的孔径和孔容累进减小。组装在AAo模板孔道内的材料呈单分散纳米颗粒状态，颗粒粒径小于loonm。组装材料的磁性测试显示：组装在MCM-41内的Zn0.9Co0.1O材料在80K-30OK呈现超顺磁性。而Mn，Fe，Ni掺杂的Zno在此温度范围内表现顺磁性。组装在AAO内的ZnO:TM(TM=Mn，Fe，Co，Ni）材料在SOK-30OK温度范围内都呈现顺磁性。在水热法合成ZnO:A（A＝Bu，Sm，co）纳米粒子的过程中，发现反应温度、压力、时间和溶液浓度等因素只影响Znl．xCoxO纳米粒子的的产量，而溶液的酸度却影响产物的形貌。控制溶液的酸度，可以控制产物的形貌从粒状向棒状转变。当溶液的PH＝5时，在甲醇：水体系中可以水热合成规则的棒状ZnO：RE（RE=Eu，Sm）纳米晶。所得到的Zn0.98Co0.02O纳米晶在80K呈超顺磁行为，而ZnO：RE（RE＝Eu，Sm）纳米晶在80K则表现较弱的顺磁性。 实验通过控制水热条件，制备了一种新型结构的柠檬酸锌晶体。由于利用了水热反应的非平衡合成条件，所得到的晶体的层状结构不同于目前已知的所有柠檬酸配合物的离散型分子结构。单晶衍射结果表明：化合物是一个由八面体和一个非对称单元交替相连构成的二维层状结构。

高频感耦等离子体发射光谱法（ICP－AES）具有测量精度好、线性范围宽、多元素同时测定等优点。经过20年来的发展已广泛应用于环境、地质、高纯材料等样品的分析中，成为分析实验室常备的分析手段之一。尽管ICP－AES在过去的20年中有很大的发展，但是依然存在着某些不足，例如：基体元素产生光谱干扰以及某些元素的含量低于检测限，使得ICP－AES对天然水等样品的直接分析上存在着一定的困难。为此，人们往往采取化学分离和富集的手段，从而使化学分离富集ICP－AES分析技术得以不断发展。在化学分离富集方法中，离子变换和吸附分离是一种较受欢迎的方法，其中所使用过的吸附剂有阴、阳离子交换树脂、螯合树脂以及螯合剂负载型吸附剂。螯合剂负载型吸附剂是一种将螯合剂以离子交换及物理吸附的方式固定在某些载体之上而成的新型吸附剂，近年来已引起人们的关注。PAN－聚氨酯泡沫是负载型吸附剂之一，它具有原料易得、制备简单、分离速度快、操作简便等特点。虽然，已有人做过研究，然而，目前的方法只限于单一或少数几个元素的富集分离，此外，与ICP－AES相结合的工作尚无人研究。本文在系统地研究了PAN－聚氨酯泡沫性质的基础上，建立了PAN－聚氨酯泡沫分离富集ICP－AES分析方法，并用此方法测定了天然水及化学试剂中的痕量元素，获得满意结果。本文首先研究比较了PAN－硅胶、PAN－GDX－401、PAN－聚四氟乙烯、PAN－聚氨酯泡沫的吸附性能。发现PAN－聚氨酯泡沫较适合ICP－AES多元素同时测定的特点，并且，操作简单，分离迅速。因此，我们对PAN－聚氨酯泡沫体系进行了深入的考察。我们研究了pH＝2－9.5范围内PAN－聚氨酯泡沫对Cu、En、Cd等17种离子的吸附特征，确定了同时富集Cu、En、Cd、Mn、Fe、Co、Pb长种离子的pH值为7.4-8.5。在吸附离子的解脱方式上，我们研究了1－4M HCl, 1-4M HCl-丙酮混合液以及消解泡沫三种解脱方式，结果发现，采用5ml 4 M HCl 可同时解脱Cu、En、Cd、Mn、Pb五种离子。采用5ml 4 HCl－丙酮混合液可同时解脱Cu、En、Cd、Mn、Fe、Co、Pb七种离子，解脱液经消解，转入无机介质后便可进样测定。实验发现，聚氨酯泡沫较易消解，因此，消解泡沫的方法也是一种实用的解脱方式。本文研究了样品体积在250－1000ml内变化时，各金属离子的回收率变化。发现此体积变化范围内，Cu、En、Cd、Mn、Pb、Fe、Co七种离子的回收率在90％以上。我们研究了试液流速对上述离子吸附性能的影响，确立了定量富集上述元素的流速为2－10ml/min。在基体元素干扰的研究中，我们对k、Na、Ca、Mg四种基体元素分别进行了考察，结果表明，k的含量为3％时，Mn的回收率低于90％，Na为3％时，Fe、Co、En回收率低于90％，Ca为0.1％时，Co、Fe、Mn回收率低于90％，Mg为0.5%时，Co、Mn、En回收率低于90％。本文还研究了PAN在聚氨酯泡沫上的动态吸附和洗脱特征，结果表明，PAN在聚氨酯泡沫上的动态饱和吸附量为60mg/g。同时，确立了PAN的动态负载方式为，以20ml 0.5% PAN-丙酮液通过泡沫柱床，经水洗后用于富集分离。实验发现，5ml 4 M HCl通过PAN－聚氨酯泡沫柱床后，流出液中PAN浓度为200Mg/ml左右。为此，我们研究了微量PAN进样时，对ICP－AES测定的影响，结果表明，进样介质中50－400Mg/ml的PAN对仪器的测定不产生影响。在化学条件研究之后，我们对仪器的工作参数进行了选择，确定了5％HG进样的工作条件为：正向功率1.3kw，载光流量为0.8 L/min，观察高度为16.5mn。最后，我们确立了PAN－聚氨酯泡沫的最佳分离条件，建立了PAN－聚氨酯泡沫分离富集ICP－AES分析方法，并用此方法分析了长春净月潭水样及优级纯NaCl中痕量元素。变异系数和标加回收实验表明，结果令人满意。
