Theoretical studies of C36 encapsulated in zigzag single-wall carbon nanotubes

Discovery of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has attracted considerable attention in the scientific community due to their unique structures and properties. Chemical doping can further modify the electrical properties of CNT. The empty space inside CNT provides t…     

Synthesis and properties of a Pr（Ⅲ） complex with 2-acetylbenzimidazoledehyde-glycine Schiff-base ligand

Abstract The 2-acetyl-benzimidazoledehyde-glycine Schiff-base ligand and the corresponding Pr（Ⅲ） complex Pr2L3（NO3）3· 2CH3OH （L=C11H10N3O2） were synthesized in methanol and characterized by a series of methods, including chemical analysis, elemental analysis, TOF-MS, ^1H NMR, UV-, IR-, Raman spectra, thermal analysis, and the three-dimension fluorescence excitation and emission spectra. The Pr（Ⅲ） complex exhibits extraordinary water-solubility and the Pr（Ⅲ） hydroxide appears at pH≥13. The complex also possesses specific fluorescent properties. Thus, at the excitation wavelengths 200.0-280.0 and 260-350 nm the fluorescence bands were observed at 290.0 and 400.0 nm, respectively.     

Sr-Nd isotope geochemistry of eolian dust of the arid-semiarid areas in China： Implications for loess provenance and monsoon evolution

Strontium (Sr) is a divalent alkaline earth element. Its ionic radius (0.113 nm) is slightly larger than that of calcium (0.099 nm), and Sr thus substitutes isomor- phously for Ca in many minerals. Neodymium (Nd) is a rare earth element. Its chemical prop…     

Seasonal variation of snow microbial community structure in the East Rongbuk glacier, Mt. Everest

Mt. Everest, the zenith of the world, plays an impor- tant role in the global climate change. During the lastdecade, some studies on glacier and snow have been undertaken in this region. The climate and environment changes in the past hundred years have b…     

Studying the stability of the middle atmosphere (30―60 km) over Wuhan by Rayleigh lidar

The stability of the middle atmosphere ranging from 30 km to 60 km over Wuhan is elementarily studied, according to the observational data obtained in about one year through the WlPM Rayleigh lidar. The stability parameter （buoyancy frequency squared）, which was obtained through the temperature field, shows that the middle atmosphere over Wuhan is stable all the year round, but the stability appears variable because the stability of summer and winter is lower, and that of spring and autumn is higher.     

Thermal conductivity measurement of InGaAs/InGaAsP superlattice thin films

The thermal conductivities of InGaAs/ InGaAsP superlattices with different period lengths were measured from 100 to 320 K using 3ω method. In this temperature range, the thermal conductivities were found to decrease with an increase in temperature. For the period length-dependant thermal conductivity, the minimum value does exist at a certain period length, which demonstrates that at a short period length, superlattice thermal conductivity increases with a decrease in the period length. When the period is longer than a certain period length, the interface thermal resistance dominates in phonon transport. The experimental and theoretical results confirmed the previous predictions from the lattice dynamics analysis, i.e. with the increase in period length, the dominant mechanisms of phonon transport in superlattices will shift from wave mode to particle mode. This is crucial for the cutoff of the phonons and lays a sound foundation for the design of superlattice structures.     

Growth ages of ferromanganese crusts from the western and central Pacific： Comparison between nannofossil analysis and ^10Be dating

Based on results of nannofossil analysis and 10Be dating in ferromanganese crusts M1-1 and A1-1 (no nannofossils were found in it),from the western and central Pacific respectively,it is found that the crust growth ages from nannofossil biostrati-graphy agree well with those based on 10Be isotope analysis. Both crusts have three growth layers,and the oldest layer was deposited in Miocene at about 12.80 Ma. The maximum,minimum,and average growth rates of crust A1-1 (from the central Pacific) are 8.11,1.92 and 3.47 mm/Ma,and those of crust M1-1 (from the western Pacific) are 2.93,0.47,and 0.94 mm/Ma.
