This paper aims to clarify the phase composition in each sub-layer of tandem absorber TiMoAlON film and verify its thermal stability. The deposited multilayer Ti/(Mo-TiAlN)/(Mo-TiAlON)/Al2O3 films include an infrared reflectance layer, light interference absorptive layers with different metal doping amounts, and an anti-reflectance layer. The layer thicknesses of Ti, Mo-TiAlN, Mo-TiAlON, and Al2O3 are 100, 300, 200, and 80 nm, respectively. Al content increases to 12 at.% and the ratio of N/O is nearly 0.1, which means nitride continuously changes to oxide. According to X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) results, the diffraction peak that appears at 2θ = 40° demonstrates that Mo element aggregates in the substitutional solid solution (Ti,Al)(O,N) columnar grain. TiMoAlON films have low reflectivity in the spectrum range of 300–900 nm. When Al content is more than 10 at.%, absorptivity is almost in the spectrum range from visible to infrared, but absorptivity decreases in the ultraviolet spectrum range. When Al content is increased to 12 at.%, absorptivity α decreases by 0.05 in the experimental conditions. After baking in atmosphere at 500 °C for 8 h, the film has the highest absorptivity when doped with 2 at.% Mo. In the visible-light range, α = 0.97, and in the whole ultraviolet-visible-light near-infrared spectrum range, α = 0.94, and emissivity ε = 0.02 at room temperature and ε = 0.10 at 500 °C.

AbstractBiomineralization, the precipitation of various inorganic compounds in biological systems, can be regulated in terms of the size, morphology, and crystal structure of these compounds by biomolecules such as proteins and peptides. However, it is difficult to construct complex inorganic nanostructures because they precipitate randomly in solution. Here, we report that the elemental composition of inorganic nanocomposites can be controlled by site-specific mineralization by changing the number of two inorganic-precipitating peptides bound to DNA. With a focus on gold and titania, we constructed a gold-titania photocatalyst that responds to visible light excitation. Both microscale and macroscale observations revealed that the elemental composition of this gold-titania nanocomposite can be controlled in several ten nm by changing the DNA length and the number of peptide binding sites on the DNA. Furthermore, photocatalytic activity and cell death induction effect under visible light (>450 nm) irradiation of the manufactured gold-titania nanocomposite was higher than that of commercial gold-titania and titania. Thus, we have succeeded in forming titania precipitates on a DNA terminus and gold precipitates site-specifically on double-stranded DNA as intended. Such nanometer-scale control of biomineralization represent a powerful and efficient tool for use in nanotechnology, electronics, ecology, medical science, and biotechnology.

A visible-light-responsive TiO2-xNx photocatalyst was prepared by a very simple method. Ammonia solution was used as nitrogen resource in this paper. The TiO2-xNx photocatalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), UV-Vis diffuse reflection spectra (DRS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The ethylene was selected as a target pollutant under visible light excitation to evaluate the activity of this photocatalyst. The new prepared TiO2-xNx photocatalyst with strong photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation was demonstrated in the experiment.

Visible Light Spectroscopy

The overarching presumption with near-infrared spectroscopy measurement of muscle deoxygenation is that the signal reflects predominantly the intramuscular microcirculatory compartment rather than intramyocyte myoglobin (Mb). To test this hypothesis, we compared the kinetics profile of muscle deoxygenation using visible light spectroscopy (suitable for the superficial fiber layers) with that for microvascular O2 partial pressure (i.e., PmvO2, phosphorescence quenching) within the same muscle region (0.5∼1 mm depth) during transitions from rest to electrically stimulated contractions in the gastrocnemius of male Wistar rats ( n = 14). Both responses could be modeled by a time delay (TD), followed by a close-to-exponential change to the new steady level. However, the TD for the muscle deoxygenation profile was significantly longer compared with that for the phosphorescence-quenching PmvO2 [8.6 ± 1.4 and 2.7 ± 0.6 s (means ± SE) for the deoxygenation and PmvO2, respectively; P < 0.05]. The time constants (τ) of the responses were not different (8.8 ± 4.7 and 11.2 ± 1.8 s for the deoxygenation and PmvO2, respectively). These disparate (TD) responses suggest that the deoxygenation characteristics of Mb extend the TD, thereby increasing the duration (number of contractions) before the onset of muscle deoxygenation. However, this effect was insufficient to increase the mean response time. Somewhat differently, the muscle deoxygenation response measured using near-infrared spectroscopy in the deeper regions (∼5 mm depth) (∼50% type I Mb-rich, highly oxidative fibers) was slower (τ = 42.3 ± 6.6 s; P < 0.05) than the corresponding value for superficial muscle measured using visible light spectroscopy or PmvO2 and can be explained on the basis of known fiber-type differences in PmvO2 kinetics. These data suggest that, within the superficial and also deeper muscle regions, the τ of the deoxygenation signal may represent a useful index of local O2 extraction kinetics during exercise transients.
