Direct oscillation at 640-nm in single longitudinal mode with a diode-pumped Pr:YLF solid-state laser
摘要： A diode-pumped solid-state laser directly emitting continuous-wave (cw), single-longitudinal mode (SLM) output at 640-nm with a c-cut praseodymium-doped yttrium lithium fluoride (Pr:YLF) crystal was demonstrated for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. Combining two quarter-wave plates (QWPs) and one Brewster plate to form a twisted-mode cavity, this SLM solid-state laser achieved a maximum cw output power of 403 mW with a threshold of 600 mW and a slope efficiency of 26.8%. The emission spectrum had a linewidth of 150 MHz. The single-mode beam quality (M2) was 1.10 and 1.07 along the x and y direction, respectively.

Analysis of optical injection on red and blue laser diodes for high bit-rate visible light communication
摘要： In this work, self-injection and external-injection in ～450 nm InGaN/GaN blue and ～650 nm InGaP/AlGaInP red diode lasers are investigated. A distinct locking characteristic is observed in the self-injection case with small 19 cm cavity length, demonstrating enhanced ～2.34 and ～2.07 GHz 3-dB bandwidths, corresponding to a factor of ～1.4 and ～1.1 improvement, and reduced ～60 and ～80 pm spectral linewidths, for the blue and the red lasers, respectively. Moreover, this short external cavity self-injection locked system exhibited superior performance by a factor of 1.1–1.3 compared to the long cavity (26 cm) configuration. Conversely, the external optical injection exhibited weak locking signature with improved linewidths by a factor of ～1.6–2.8 and reaching as small as ～70 and ～87 pm for the blue laser, respectively, while almost doubling in the peak powers. Later, on–off keying modulation technique based data transmission rates of up to 3.5 and 4.5 Gb/s are demonstrated on free-running blue and red laser diodes, respectively, employing an in-house laser diode mount based system. Moreover, owing to the bandwidth limitation of the optically injected systems, successful transmission of up to 2 Gb/s is demonstrated with better performance compared to the respective free-running cases, in particular, the external-optically injected system demonstrated more than double improvement in the bit-error-rate.

Spectroscopy Used as a Tool to Evaluate Hair Damage and Protection
摘要： OBJECTIVE: Methods that can be used to analyze hair damage and to support a claim of hair protection are important for the cosmetic industry. There are many approaches available, but they are usually laborious and expensive. The researchers propose a simple fluorescence method that is based upon the emissive properties of damaged hair. METHODS: Hair fluorescence was observed when using both fluorimetry and microscopic procedures. The method was developed by comparing native hair with hair that was damaged by UVA and visible light. RESULTS: Spectroscopic properties (absorption and emission) of hair in the visible range are presented. The changes in the emissive properties of hair during irradiation were characterized and they were correlated with photobleaching, which is due to the generation of singlet oxygen. Emissions were also obtained in the hair shafts that had been previously treated with chamomile extract and this treatment was able to avoid hair bleaching. CONCLUSION: The emissive properties of hair in the visible range can be used as a tool for the evaluation of hair damage and protection. This method can be useful as a tool in order to claim

Modulating Protein-Protein Interactions with Visible-Light Responsive Peptide Backbone Photoswitches
摘要： Life relies on a myriad of carefully orchestrated processes, in which proteins and their direct interplay ultimately determine cellular function and disease. Modulation of these complex cross-talks has recently attracted attention, even as a novel therapeutic strategy. Here, we describe the synthesis and characterization of two visible-light responsive peptide backbone photoswitches based on azobenzene derivatives to exert optical control over protein-protein interactions (PPI). Our novel peptidomimetics undergo fast isomerization and reversibility with low photochemical fatigue under alternatively blue/green-light irradiation cycles. Both bind in the nanomolar rage to the protein of interest. Importantly, our best peptidomimetic displays a clear difference between isomers in its protein-binding capacity and, in turn, in its potential to inhibit enzymatic activity via PPI disruption. In addition, crystal structure determination, docking and MD calculations give a molecular interpretation and open new avenues in the design and synthesis of future photoswitchable PPI modulators.

CHARACTERIZATION AND ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF ZnO NANOPARTICLES SYNTHESIZED BY CO PRECIPITATION METHOD
摘要： Objective: In the present study the antibacterial activity of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles was investigated against gram negative (Escherichia coli and Proteus vulgaris) and gram positive (Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus mutans) organisms. Methods: The synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles was carried out by co-precipitation method using zinc sulfate and sodium hydroxide as precursors. These nanoparticles were characterized by XRD (X-Ray Diffraction), FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Radiation), UV-Visible spectroscopy and SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) with EDX (Energy Dispersive X-ray analysis). As well as antibacterial activity and minimum inhibitory concentration of the nanoparticles were carried out by agar well diffusion method and broth dilution method respectively against gram negative (Escherichia coli and Proteus vulgaris) and gram positive (Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus mutans) bacteria. Results: The average crystallite size of ZnO nanoparticles was found to be 35 nm by X-ray diffraction. The vibration bands at 450 and 603 cm-1 which were assigned for ZnO stretching vibration were observed in FTIR spectrum. The optical absorption band at 383 nm was obtained from UV-Visible spectrum. Spherical shape morphology was observed in SEM studies. The antibacterial assay clearly expressed that E. coli showed a maximum zone of inhibition (32±0.20 mm) followed by Proteus vulgaris (30±0.45 nm) at 50 mg/ml concentration of ZnO nanoparticles. Conclusion: Zinc oxide nanoparticles have exhibited good antibacterial activity with gram negative bacteria when compared to gram positive bacteria.

Reusability and photocatalytic activity of bismuth-TiO2 nanocomposites for industrial wastewater treatment
摘要： In this study, bismuth-TiO2 nanotube (Bi-TNT) composites were used for the treatment of industrial wastewater. Bi-TNT were synthesized using two- and one-step anodization methods. The obtained composites were analyzed using X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. For the two-step Bi-TNT composites, we investigated the effect of different Bi deposition times, Bi concentrations, and Bi deposition voltages on photodegradation efficiency. For the one-step Bi-TNT composites, we investigated the effect of different anodization voltages, anodization times, and Bi concentrations. Initially, the optimal synthesis conditions for two- and one-step Bi-TNT catalysts were identified and then these optimized conditions were used for industrial wastewater treatment that was collected from Banwol Sihwa Industrial Complex Republic of Korea. The Bi-TNT two- and one-step composites showed 2.0 and 2.5 times higher photocatalytic activity, respectively, for industrial wastewater treatment than that of TNT in visible-light. Recycling of Bi-TNT composites showed that the one-step composite method was more efficient and stable than the two-step method because Bi coupling and nanotube formation simultaneously occurred.

Enhanced Charge Separation in g-C3N4 – BiOI Heterostructures for Visible Light Driven Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting
摘要： Heterojunctions of the low bandgap semiconductor bismuth oxyiodide (BiOI) with bulk multilayered graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and few layered graphitic carbon nitride sheets (g-C3N4-S) are synthesized and investigated as an active photoanode material for sunlight driven water splitting. HR-TEM and elemental mapping reveals formation of a unique heterostructure between BiOI platelets and the carbon nitride (g-C3N4 and g-C3N4-S) network that consisted of dendritic BiOI nanoplates surrounded by g-C3N4 sheets. The presence of BiOI in g-C3N4-S/BiOI and g-C3N4-S/BiOI nanocomposites extends the visible light absorption profile from 500 nm up to 650 nm. Due to excellent charge separation in g-C3N4/BiOI and g-C3N4-S/BiOI, evident from quenching of the carbon nitride photoluminescence (PL) and a decrease in the PL lifetime, a significant increase in photoelectrochemical performance is observed for both types of g-C3N4-BiOI heterojunctions. In comparison to heterojunctions of bulk g-C3N4 with BiOI, the nancomposite consisting of few layered sheets of g-C3N4 and BiOI exhibits higher photocurrent density due to lower recombination in few layered sheets. A synergistic trap passivation and charge separation is found to occur in the g-C3N4-S/BiOI nanocomposite heterostructure which results in a higher photocurrent and a lower charge transfer resistance.

Photo-Sensitive Pb5S2I6 Crystal Incorporated Polydopamine Biointerface Coated on Nanoporous TiO2 as an Efficient Signal-on Photoelectrochemical Bioassay for Ultrasensitive Detection of Cr(VI) ions
摘要： An ultrasensitive Visible light-triggered photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor was designed based on ideal photoactive lead sulfoiodide (Pb5S2I6) as low band gap crystal, which hydrothermally synthesized rapidly at low temperature (160°C) in hydrochloride acid media followed by its incorporation into polydopamine as reactive photo-biointerface, through a facile in situ electropolymerization method, coated on nanoporous TiO2 grown by anodization on Ti foil. The structure of as-prepared samples and their photoelectrochemical properties were fully characterized. This unique photo-sensitive Pb5S2I6 catalyst-based PEC bioassay was constructed for the detection of low-abundant Cr(VI) ion in real samples. Applying central composite design, individual and mutual interaction effects were evaluated to obtain optimized solution pH, applied potential and radiant light wavelength as operational factors influencing the PEC efficiency for Cr(VI) detection. At optimal condition, the proposed sensor due to effective suppress in electron–hole recombinations showed a very low detection limit of 3.0 nM, over a broad linear concentration range of 0.01 μM-80 μM in addition to high sensitivity versus 1.9 μA/μM Cr(VI). Proposed PEC sensor displayed high selectivity, reproducibility and stability as well as improved excitation conversion efficiency, which make it highly applicable using solar energy. The potential applicability of the designed sensor was evaluated in water, tomato juice and hair color.

Effect of electron beam irradiation on structure, morphology, and optical properties of PVDF-HFP/PEO blend polymer electrolyte films
摘要： The effect of 8 MeV energy electron beam (EB) on poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP)/poly-ethylene oxide (PEO) (@ w/w 90:10, PHP10) polymer blend films have been prepared and studied. The change in structure, morphology, and optical properties at 40, 80, and 120 kGy EB doses were investigated. The effect of the radiation process may responsible to occurs the degradation (chain scission) and chain link (cross linking) which are confirmed by the FT-IR analysis. The band at 1401 cm?1 corresponding to the –CH2– bending or scission mode have shifted to 1397 cm?1 after 120 kGy EB dose is due to the intermolecular interaction and the changes of the macromolecular chain by breaking of bonds with increased EB dose was observed. The XRD pattern shows decreased in the crystallinity from 60.03 to 23.42% and increased amorphousity for 120 kGy EB dose the and the surface morphology was drastically changed by decreasing the size of spherulites upon increased EB dose. The increase in optical absorption and the shifting of wavelength toward a higher end (red shift) was observed after the irradiation. The energy band gaps (Eg), and Urbach energy were estimated and they are found to be decreased, but the number of carbon atoms in a cluster of was increased with increased EB dose. The obtained results notice that the physical properties of polymer blend electrolytes can be improved by EB irradiation to use in different potential applications.

G‐C3N4‐SiC‐Pt for Enhanced Photocatalytic H2 Production from Water under Visible Light Irradiation
摘要： The g-C3N4 and SiC has drawn increasing attention for application to visible light photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from water splitting due to their unique band structure and high physicochemical stability. In this study, g-C3N4-SiC heterojunction with loaded noble metal was constructed. The g-C3N4-SiC-Pt composite photocatalysts were successfully prepared by the combination method of a bio-reduction, sol-deposition and calcination. The layers of g-C3N4 were thinned and the SiC and Pt nanoparticles simultaneously were tightly bound to g-C3N4 by calcination in the process of preparing the g-C3N4-SiC-Pt. The heterojunction formed in the interface of SiC and g-C3N4 enhances the separation efficiency of the photogenerated electron-hole pairs. These composite photocatalysts achieve a high hydrogen evolution rate of 595.3 μmol·h-1·g-1 with a 1wt% of deposited Pt, 3.7- and 2.07-fold higher than g-C3N4-bulk and g-C3N4-SiC under visible-light irradiation with a quantum efficiency of 2.76% at 420 nm, respectively.
