In alkali-alkaline earth-phosphates,the splitting extent of 4f^65d band (△E) becomes smaller as the Eu-O bond distance (R) increases.In Na_(3-x)(PO_4)_(1-x)(SO_4)_x and Na_(2-x)CaSi_(1-x)P_xO_4 hosts,d-d emission peak of Eu^(2+) will shift to shorter wavelength with the increase of x's value. The crystal structure data show that Eu^(2+) in K_2Mg_2(SO_4)_3 is affected more strongly by crystal-field and covalancy than in KMgF_3,so K_2Mg_2(SO_4)_3:Eu^(2+) emits blue light (E_(em)~m=400nm) and KMgF_3:Eu^(2+) produces ultraviolet fluorescence.展开更多

In this work, the characteristics of resistance triggering of a pulsed vacuum arc ion source are investigated and compared with the independent pulse generator triggering. The results show that although the resistance triggering method is capable of triggering a vacuum arc ion source by properly choosing the resistance and electric parameters, it inevitably increases the rise time of the arc current. A high speed multiframe camera is used to reveal the transition process o~ arc initiation during one shot. From the images it is conjectured that the lower voltage between the cathode and the anode may be the reason that leads to the lower transition speed of discharge at the moment of arc initiation.展开更多

The objectives of this study were to investigate the desalination performance of monovalent and divalent cations in the MDC, and discuss the effect of ion characteristics, ion concentrations, and electrical characteristics. Mixed salt solutions of NaC1, MgC12, KC1, and CaC12 with the same concentration were used in the desalination chamber to study removal of cations. Results showed that in the mixed salt solutions, the electrodialysis desalination rates of cations were： Ca2＋ 〉 Mg2＋ 〉 Na＋ 〉 K＋. Higher ionic charges and smaller hydrated ionic radii resulted in higher desalination rates of the cations, in which the ionic charge was more important than the hydrated ionic radius. Mixed solutions of NaC1 and MgC12 with different concentrations were used in the desalination chamber to study the effect of ion concentra- tions. Results showed that when ion concentrations ofNa＋ were one-fifth to five times of Mg2~, ion concentration influenced the dialysis more profoundly than electrodia- lysis. With the current densities below a certain value, charge transfer efficiencies became very low and the dialysis was the main process responsible for the desalination. And the phosphate transfer from the anode chamber and potassium transfer from the cathode chamber could balance 1%-3% of the charge transfer in the MDC.展开更多

The ion characteristics included AN（the atomic number）, AIP（the change in ionization potential, eV）, Xm（the electronegativity, eV）, AW（the atomic weight）, Xm2r（the covalent index）, △E0（the absolute difference between electrochemical potential of the ion and that of its first stable reduced state, eV）, ｜lgKoH｜ （the absolute value of the lg of the first hydrolysis constant）, AR（the atomic radius, nm）, AR/AW（the ratio between atomic radius and atomic weight） and ap（the softness index） selected based on relative correlation analysis. The simulated and tested（with the other four metals） efficiency coefficients of the model are 0.88 and 0.96, respectively. The information revealed from the QICAR model indicates that the value of the metal ion toxicity was positively correlated with variables AN, AlP, Xm, AW and Xm2r; negatively correlated with variables AE0, ｜IgKoH｜, AR/AW, AR and ap, and ion characteristics △E0, Xm, σp and Xm2r were found to contribute more to the toxicity of metal ions via the accurate analysis method provided by PLS. The model could be used to predict the toxicity of the target metals and preliminary to assess combined pollution and environmental risk for heavy metals in the environments.展开更多
