Intensity distribution of a capillary-discharge 46.9 nm soft X-ray laser

We realize a Ne-like Ar 46.9 nm soft X-ray laser pumped by a capillary discharge. The study of the laserpulse-intensity distribution is important for applications of soft X-ray lasers. The intensity distribution demonstrates the gain distribution, plasma radius, and axial plasma density that contribute to the study of the laser-pulse formation. To measure the intensity in different positions of the X-ray laser spot, we moved transversally an X-ray diode (XRD) assembled with a slit. We obtain the onedimensional intensity distribution. We find a laser divergence (FWHM) of 4.0 mrad. According to the gain-guided model, we calculate the intensity distribution. The measured divergence of 4.0 mrad roughly corresponds to a plasma radius a approximately equal to 230–250 μm and on-axis electron density n _e ≈ 8.0?10¹⁸ ?9.0?10¹⁸ cm ^?3. The results of calculations indicate that the divergence of the intensity distribution increases when the plasma radius decreases and the on-axis electron density increases.     

Effect of Temperature on the Composition and Properties of Poly[(alkylamino)borazine] Precursor to Boron Nitride

A novel poly[(alkylamino)borazine] (PPAB) precursor to boron nitride (BN) was synthesized and the effect of synthesis temperature (T_syn) on its composition and properties was investigated. The results showed that with elevation of temperature, the precursor turned from a colorless transparent liquid to a yellow foamed solid. The softening point (T_s) can be adjusted according to the equation T_s = 1.43T_syn – 125.7, in which the T_syn was between 130°C and 170°C. The PPAB was composed of B, C, N, and H elements and the C content in PPAB decreased gradually with an increase of T_syn. The soluble and fusible precursor, with a softening point of 95°C, provided good processability into polymer fibers. The weight loss of PPAB in N₂ can be divided into three ranges: below 240°C, 240～700°C, and 700～1200°C. The ceramic yield of PPAB was improved from 43 wt% to 55 wt%, when the T_syn was elevated from 110°C to 190°C. Furthermore, the residue from PPAB pyrolyzed under N₂ showed characteristic IR spectra of hexagonal BN.     

Synthesis of 2-(p-Aminophenyl)oxazoline and Its Cationic Polymerization Studies by Differential Scanning Calorimetry

Abstract

The monomer 2-(4-aminophenyl)oxazoline has been prepared in good yield and briefly investigated for cationic, homopolymerization and copolymerization characteristics, using 2-ethyloxazoline as a comonomer. Cationic polymerizations can be conducted to producesoluble poly[2-(4-aminophenyl)oxazoline] and poly[2-(4-aminophenyl)-oxazoline-co-2-ethyloxazoline].     

Thermoelastic damping in torsion microresonators with coupling effect between torsion and bending

Predicting thermoelastic damping (TED) is crucial in the design of high Q MEMS resonators. In the past, there have been few works on analytical modeling of thermoelastic damping in torsion microresonators. This could be related to the assumption of pure torsional mode for the supporting beams in the torsion devices. The pure torsional modes of rectangular supporting beams involve no local volume change, and therefore, they do not suffer any thermoelastic loss. However, the coupled motion of torsion and bending usually exists in the torsion microresonator when it is not excited by pure torque. The bending component of the coupled motion causes flexural vibrations of supporting beams which may result in significant thermoelastic damping for the microresonator. This paper presents an analytical model for thermoelastic damping in torsion microresonators with the coupling effect between torsion and bending. The theory derives a dynamic model for torsion microresonators considering the coupling effect, and approximates the thermoelastic damping by assuming the energy loss to occur only in supporting beams of flexural vibrations. The thermoelastic damping obtained by the present model is compared to the measured internal friction of single paddle oscillators. It is found that thermoelastic damping contributes significantly to internal friction for the case of the higher modes at room temperature. The present model is validated by comparing its results with the finite-element method (FEM) solutions. The effects of structural dimensions and other parameters on thermoelastic damping are investigated for the representative case of torsion microresonators.

Lead Halide Perovskite Quantum Dots To Enhance the Power Conversion Efficiency of Organic Solar Cells

The facile synthesis, solution‐processability, and outstanding optoelectronic properties of emerging colloidal lead halide perovskite quantum dots (LHP QDs) makes them ideal candidates for scalable and inexpensive optoelectronic applications, including photovoltaic (PV) devices. The first demonstration of integrating CsPbI₃ QDs into a conventional organic solar cell (OSC) involves embedding the LHP QDs in a donor–acceptor (PTB7‐Th:PC₇₁BM) bulk heterojunction. Optimizing the loading amount at 3 wt %, we demonstrate a power conversion efficiency of 10.8 %, which is a 35 % increase over control devices, and is a record amongst hybrid ternary OSCs. Detailed investigation into the mechanisms behind the performance enhancement shows that increased light absorption is not a factor, but that increased exciton separation in the acceptor phase and reduced recombination are responsible.     

Electrically conductive pseudo IPNs of linear poly(carbonate-urethane) and crosslinked polychloroprene

A number of pseudo IPNs of poly(carbonate-urethane) (PCU) and crosslinked polychloroprene (CR) have been synthesized and characterized. The single phase morphology of these novel pseudo IPNs has been confirmed by DSC measurements and electron microscopy. The room temperature electrical conductives of homopolymers and pseudo IPNs have been investigated for both undoped and iodine-doped samples. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
