Search space pruning and global optimisation of multiple gravity assist spacecraft trajectories

We introduce and describe the Multiple Gravity Assist problem, a global optimisation problem that is of great interest in the design of spacecraft and their trajectories. We discuss its formalization and we show, in one particular problem instance, the performance of selected state of the art heuristic global optimisation algorithms. A deterministic search space pruning algorithm is then developed and its polynomial time and space complexity derived. The algorithm is shown to achieve search space reductions of greater than six orders of magnitude, thus reducing significantly the complexity of the subsequent optimisation.

Particle sizing by time-resolved Mie calculations—A numerical study

If a small transparent particle is illuminated with a short laser pulse, the signals of the individual scattering light orders appear temporally successively. Since to each scattered light order belongs a specific optical path through the particle, the particle size can be determined from the time difference between the detected scattered light signals. For the case of a detector position within the backscatter region, which especially is important in measuring practice, the time difference between the specular reflection signal and the signal after a single internal reflection (refraction of second order) must to be evaluated. In the numerical simulation we generate the concerned scattered light signals by using time-resolved Mie calculations and in this paper we present the geometrical models, which permit a correct interpretation of the temporal behavior of these pulse-induced scattered light signals.

Ultraviolet laser removal of small metallic particles from silicon wafers

Laser removal of small 1 μm sized copper, gold and tungsten particles from silicon wafer surfaces was carried out using ultraviolet radiation at 266 nm generated by Nd:YAG harmonic generation. Successful removal of both copper and gold particles from the surface was achieved whereas tungsten particles proved to be difficult to remove. The cleaning efficiency was increased with an increase of laser fluence. The optimum processing window for safe cleaning of the surface without any substrate damage was determined by measuring the damage threshold laser fluence on the silicon substrate and the required fluence for complete removal of the particles. The different cleaning efficiencies with particle type are discussed by considering the adhesion force of the particle on the surface and the laser-induced cleaning force for the three different particles.     

Linear Phase Shift Response with High Dynamic Range for Holographic Recording in As2S3

Amorphous As₂S₃ films are real-time photographic materials for phase holograms. This work focuses on the phase shift in As₂S₃ films as a function of the exposure. A method for measuring the phase shift response and the exposure simultaneously is presented. A relative displacement determination of interferometric patterns allows precise measurements insensitive to changes of experimental conditions. The phase shift dependence on the intensity of the writing beam is evaluated for two different films. As a result, a linear phase shift response is obtained with a dynamic range of nearly n. It is independent of the intensity over four orders of magnitude. The results are proofed by diffraction efficiency measurements.     

Synthesis and characterization of indium–tin oxide (ITO) nanoparticles

Synthesis and characterization of ITO nanoparticles were investigated in the present study. To synthesize the ITO nanoparticles flame spray pyrolysis was introduced. The average particle diameter increased with an increase in the molar concentration of the precursor. Raising the maximum flame temperature by controlling the gas flow rates also led to an increase in the average diameter of the particles. The crystalline ITO nanoparticles were synthesized, and their average primary particle diameters ranged from 11 to 20 nm. ITO thin films were prepared with a sol consisted of the ITO nanoparticles and a polymer binder. Effect of average particle diameter of the ITO nanoparticles on the transparency and the surface resistance of the ITO thin films were measured. As the average particle diameter increased, the transparency and the surface resistance decreased from 92 to 83% and from 1.0 × 10⁴ to 0.8 × 10⁴Ω/□, respectively.

The preparation of nanophase tungsten carbide powder with zeolite-X catalysts

The reduction–carburization of tungsten trioxide (WO₃) under carbon monoxide flow was studied in the temperature range of 300–750 °C. The reduction–carburization of WO₃ was improved by mechanically mixing with zeolite-HX, -NaX and -KX. The interaction between cation in zeolite-X and oxygen in WO₃ affected the improvement of the reduction–carburization of WO₃ to WC. Moreover, the improved reduction–carburization of WO₃ could lead to the decrease of reaction temperature. Because the particle size of WC is in contact with a reaction temperature, the nanophase WC can be prepared at low temperature. In particular, the particle size of WC was controlled by reaction temperature. The particle sizes of produced WC at 550, 650 and 700 °C were 25, 50 and 100 nm respectively.
