Improvement of accuracy of interferometric measurement of wedge angle of plates

A method is proposed for improving the accuracy of measuring the wedge angle of transparent plates using a lateral-shear holographic interferometer. Consecutive processing of a pair of interferograms with doubled number of interference fringes leads to reduction of the observational error by a factor of two compared to traditional interferometric methods. Data on the experimental validation of the method are presented.

Measurement of degree of polarization of fluorescence of pure anthracene crystalline film

The polarization ratio (I _b/I_a) of fluorescence of a monocrystalline film of pure anthracene is measured correcting for all probable errors. Comparison with decay-time data brings out that deviation from the value obtained from absorption measurements is due to a loss of intensity in the a-polarized fluorescence as compared to what is expected from absorption data. This is interpreted as an evidence that anthracene crystal fluorescence is emitted from regions of local lattice imperfections. It is confirmed that the first electronic transition takes place along the short axis of the anthracene molecule.

Simulation of the superlinearity of dose characteristics of thermoluminescence of anion-defective aluminum oxide

The specific features revealed in the superlinearity of dose dependences of thermoluminescence of anion-defective aluminum oxide single crystals have been considered theoretically in terms of the model of an interactive trap system. The model explains the decrease in the degree of superlinearity at a low heating rate, as well as with an increase in the dose increment, the occupancy of deep traps, and the sensitivity of the crystals to radiation due to the increase in the concentration of luminescence centers. The obtained results indicate a widening of the possibilities of the model for interpreting experimental data in the investigation of the dose characteristics of thermoluminescence of the studied crystals.

Stability of families of probability distributions under reduction of the number of degrees of freedom

We consider two classes of probability distributions for configurations of the ideal gas. They depend only on kinetic energy and they remain of the same form when degrees of freedom are integrated out. The relation with equilibrium distributions of Tsallis’ thermostatistics is discussed.     

Calculation of energy characteristics of adsorption of metals

Within the framework of the electron density functional, a technique is developed for calculation of the adsorption energy and variation in the electron work function for metal substrates due to metal atom adsorption. The corrections to the local density approximation, which are associated with non-uniformity of the electron density in the subsurface region and discontinuous ion charge distribution over the crystal lattice sites, are included into consideration. It is shown that adsorption of alkali metal atoms results in lower electron work function, while that of transition metals (cobalt, iron, and chromium) might both decrease and increase the electron work function. Formation of a variety of adsorption structures from metal atoms depending on the temperature is discussed. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 7, pp. 14–19, July, 2007.     

Rectangularity of hysteresis loop of ferrites as a function of volume of reverse domains in state of remanence

A study is made of the dependence of the coefficient of rectangularity of the hysteresis loop of ferrites of the Li-Mn-Mg and Mg-Mn-Zn system on the volume concentration of residual reverse domains. The latter is calculated from the results of measurements of the relative remanence on the basis of a model developed. It is shown that a high degree of loop rectangularity can be attained not only in the absence of reverse domains but also in the presence of a considerable volume concentration of such domains.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 6, pp. 109–114, June, 1978.

The spectral scattering characteristics of nanoscale particles exhibited in the field of evanescent waves are analyzed using the method of discrete sources. The effect of various parameters on the behavior of the scattering characteristics is studied. The material of the particles is shown to have the most substantial effect on the scattering cross section.     

Generation of superpositions of coherent states of the motion of a trapped ion

We propose a method for preparing superpositions of coherent states of the motion of an ion in an anisotropic two-dimensional trap, in which the ion is tightly bound in the y direction. In the scheme the ion is excited by two resonant laser beams with equal amplitude, propagating along the x and y directions, respectively. In the Dicke-Lamb limit, an initial coherent state of the ion motion can be converted into a superposition of several coherent states on a circle through the laser-ion interactions and state-selective measurements on the ion.

Role of interactions of triplets of atoms in the formation of elastic properties of cubic crystals

It is widely known that the interaction of triplets of particles (which are not reducible to the sum of pair interactions) play an important role in formation the nonlinear and anisotropic properties of crystals. The aim of this work is to establish a general form of the dependence of these properties on interactions of triplets of atoms that is dependent only on the structure of the crystals. To separate the interactions of triplets of atoms from those of quadruples, we assume that the energy of triplets of interacting atoms depends only on the characteristics of a triangle whose vertices are the centers of gravity of interacting atoms. In this model, the internal energy must therefore be invariant upon rearrangement of the numbers of interacting atoms and any rotation of the triangle in isotropic space, P(3) × O(3). To specify the form of energy dependence on characteristics of selected triangles, we constructed an integral rational basis of invariants in dependence on the components of the vectors connecting the vertices of each triangle. Using the example of a simple dependence of the energy on basic invariants, we show how to move from the assumed energy dependence on invariants to the dependence of energy on lattice sums.     

Measurement of the index of refraction of single microparticles

The refractive index of single microparticles is derived from precise measurement and rigorous modeling of the stiffness of a laser trap. We demonstrate the method for particles of four different materials with diameters from 1.6 to 5.2 microm and achieve an accuracy of better than 1%. The method greatly contributes as a new characterization technique because it works best under conditions (small particle size, polydispersion) where other methods, such as absorption spectroscopy, start to fail. Particles need not be transferred to a particular fluid, which prevents particle degradation or alteration common in index matching techniques. Our results also show that advanced modeling of laser traps accurately reproduces experimental reality.

X-ray interferometric method of determination of parameters of permolecular structure of polymers

A new method for determining the density of polymer materials based on determination of the path-length differences in moiré patterns is proposed. The method is characterized by simplicity and accuracy of results. The densities of polychloropren and polystirol have been determined with high accuracy. Knowledge of the dependence of the polymer density on the stretching degree enables one to reveal the dynamics of changes in the permolecular structure at deformation of polymers.
