Particles have properties that uniquely characterize them from one another, such as mass, charge and spin. Charged particles have associated Electric and Magnetic fields. Also, every moving particle has a De Broglie wavelength determined by its mass and velocity. This paper shows that all of these properties of a particle can be derived from a single wave function equation for that particle. Wave functions for the Electron and the Positron are presented and principles are provided that can be used to calculate the wave functions of all the fundamental particles in Physics. Fundamental particles such as electrons and positrons are considered to be point particles in the Standard Model of Physics and are not considered to have a structure. This paper demonstrates that they do indeed have structure and that this structure extends into the space around the particle’s center (in fact, they have infinite extent), but with rapidly diminishing energy density with the distance from that center. The particles are formed from Electromagnetic standing waves, which are stable solutions to the Schrödinger and Classical wave equations. This stable structure therefore accounts for both the wave and particle nature of these particles. In fact, all of their properties such as mass, spin and electric charge, can be accounted for from this structure. These particle properties appear to originate from a single point at the center of the wave function structure, in the same sort of way that the Shell theorem of gravity causes the gravity of a body to appear to all originate from a central point. This paper represents the first two fully characterized fundamental particles, with a complete description of their structure and properties, built up from the underlying Electromagnetic waves that comprise these and all fundamental particles.展开更多

The limiting reduced field strengths are decided by a balance of electron generation and loss based on chemical reactions estimated by the electron energy distribution function （EEDF）, which employs the Boltzmann equation method with two-term expanding approximation in the steady-state Townsend （SST） condition. During the insulation recovery phase, the hot CF3I/CO2 gas mixtures have maximum dielectric strength at a temperature of about 1500 K. At room temperature 300 K, the electric strength after arc extinction （90.3 Td, 1 Td=10-21 V.m2） is only 38% of the original value before arc （234.9 Td）. The adverse insulation recovery ability of CF3I/CO2 gas mixtures in arc extinction hinders its application in electric circuit breakers and other switchgears as an arc quenching and insulating medium.展开更多

It is observed that both nanoplates possess high conductivity and show metallic-like behavior. Compared to the smooth nanoplate, the spiral-type one exhibits the higher carrier concentration and lower mobility. CAFM characterization reveals that the conductance at the screw-dislocation edge is even higher than that on the terrace, implying that the dislocation can supply excess carriers to compensate the low mobility and achieve high conductivity. The unique structure and electrical properties make the spiral-type Bi2 Se3 nanoplates a good candidate for catalysts and gas sensors.展开更多

The dominative photovoltaic effect of the non-volatile holographic recording in doubly doped LiNbO3 crystals is directly verified. And an external electric field that is applied in the positive direction along the c-axis （or a large one in the negative direction of the c-axis） in the recording phase and another one that is applied in the negative direction of the c-axis in the fixing phase are both proved to benefit strong photorefractive performances. Experimental verifications are given with a small electric field applied externally.展开更多

The full potentiallinearized augumented plane wave plus local orbitals （APW-LO） method and the supercell method are used in the calculation for the KNN crystal with and without the La doping. The results show that the piezoelectricity originates from the strong hybridization between the Nb atom and the O atom, and the substitution of the K or Na atom by the La impurity atom introduces the anisotropic relaxation and enhances the piezoelectricity at first and then restrains the hybridization of the Nb-O atoms when the La doping content further increases.展开更多

文摘It is a challenging issue to further drive charge separation through the oriented design of Z-scheme het-erojunction in the exploitation of cost-effective photocatalytic materials.In this contribution,the unique Z-scheme 3D/2D In_(2)Se_(3)/PCN heterojunction is developed through implanting In_(2)Se_(3) microspheres on PCN nanosheets using an in situ growth technique,which acquires the effective CO generation activity from photocatalytic CO_(2) reduction(CO_(2)R).The CO yield of 4 h in the CO_(2)R reaction over the optimal In_(2)Se_(3)/PCN-15 sample reaches up to 11.40 and 2.41 times higher than that of individual PCN and In_(2)Se_(3),respectively.Such greatly enhanced photocatalytic performance is primarily the improvement of photo-generated carrier separation efficiency.To be more specific,the formed built-in electric field is signifi-cantly intensified by producing the temperature difference potential between In_(2)Se_(3) and PCN owing to the photothermoelectric effect of In_(2)Se_(3),which actuates the high-efficiency separation of photogenerated charge carriers along the Z-scheme transfer path in the In_(2)Se_(3)/PCN heterojunction.The effective strat-egy of enhancing the built-in electric field to drive photogenerated charge separation proposed in this work opens up an innovative avenue to design Z-scheme heterojunction applied to high-efficiency pho-tocatalytic reactions,such as hydrogen generation from water splitting,CO_(2)R,and degradation of organic pollutants.

文摘Transition metal dichalcogenides are interesting candidates as photocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction.The MnPSe_(3)/WS_(2) heterostructure is hence studied here with first principles calculations by exploring its electronic properties under the application of an electric field.It is discovered that the band gap will decrease from the WS_(2) monolayer to the MnPSe_(3)/WS_(2) heterostructure with Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof functional,while increase slightly when electron correlation is involved.The conduction band minimum of the heterostructure is determined by the MnPSe3 layer,while the valence band maximum is contributed by the WS_(2)layer.The band edges and band gap suggest that the heterostructure will have good photocatalytic properties for water splitting.Moreover,comparing to monolayer WS_(2),the light absorption in both the ultraviolet and visible regions will be enhanced.When an electric field is present,a linear relation is observed between the electric field and the band gap within specific range,which can thus modulate the photocatalytic performance of this heterostructure.

文摘The La-dopping effect on the piezoelectricity in the K0.5Na0.5NbO3 （KNN） crystal with a tetragonal phase is investigated for the first time using the first-principle calculation based on density functional theory. The full potentiallinearized augumented plane wave plus local orbitals （APW-LO） method and the supercell method are used in the calculation for the KNN crystal with and without the La doping. The results show that the piezoelectricity originates from the strong hybridization between the Nb atom and the O atom, and the substitution of the K or Na atom by the La impurity atom introduces the anisotropic relaxation and enhances the piezoelectricity at first and then restrains the hybridization of the Nb-O atoms when the La doping content further increases.
文摘The 3-D seismic dataset is a key tool to analyze and understand the mechanism of structural and stratigraphic hydrocarbon(HC)trapping in the subsurface.Conventionally used subsurface seismic characterization methods for fractures are based on the theory of effective anisotropy medium.The aim of this work is to improve the structural images with dense sampling of 3-D survey to evaluate structural and stratigraphic models for reservoir development to predict reservoir quality.The present study of the Gullfaks Field,located in the Norwegian North Sea Gullfaks sector,identifies the shallowest structural elements.The steepness of westward structural dip decreases eastward during the Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous deposition.Reservoir sands consist of the Middle Jurassic deltaic deposits and Lower Jurassic fluvial channel and delta plain deposits.Sediment supply steadily prevails on sea-level rise and the succession displays a regressive trend indicated by a good continuous stacking pattern.The key factor for the development of reservoirs in the Gullfaks Field is fault transmissibility with spatially distributed pressure.The majority of mapped faults with sand-to-sand contacts are non-sealing,which provide restriction for the HC flow between the fault blocks.The traps for HC accumulation occur between the post-rift and syn-rift strata,i.e.antiform set by extensional system,unconformity trap at the top of syndeposition,and structural trap due to normal faults.Overall reservoir quality in the studied area is generally excellent with average 35%porosity and permeability in the Darcy range.Our findings are useful to better understand the development of siliciclastic reservoirs in similar geological settings worldwide.
