An analytical expression of the complex permittivity is derived for absorbing centres featuring inhomogeneous absorption-line broadening. Such an expression gives the dispersion law of the real part of the permittivity when the imaginary part has a Gaussian lineshape. Our mathematical approach starts from an overlap integral of Lorentzian-type dielectric susceptibilities weighted by a Gaussian probability distribution of the resonance absorption energies. The analytical solution found is consistent with the Kramers–Kronig relation. We demonstrate that, like in the case of homogeneous absorption-line broadening, the refractive index increases at photon energies lower than the resonance absorption energy also for inhomogeneous absorption-line broadening; if the absorbing centres emit Stokes-shifted radiation, such an increase can be exploited for passive and active waveguiding applications. An example is reported regarding active waveguides based on colour centres in a lithium fluoride crystal. 相似文献

Purpose: Vascular targeted photodynamic therapy (VTP) is a nonsurgical tumor ablation approach used to treat early-stage prostate cancer and may also be effective for upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC) based on preclinical data. Toward increasing response rates to VTP, we evaluated its efficacy in combination with concurrent PD-1 inhibitor/OX40 agonist immunotherapy in a urothelial tumor-bearing model. Experimental design: In mice allografted with MB-49 UTUC cells, we compared the effects of combined VTP with PD-1 inhibitor/OX40 agonist with those of the component treatments on tumor growth, survival, lung metastasis, and antitumor immune responses. Results: The combination of VTP with both PD-1 inhibitor and OX40 agonist inhibited tumor growth and prolonged survival to a greater degree than VTP with either immunotherapeutic individually. These effects result from increased tumor infiltration and intratumoral proliferation of cytotoxic and helper T cells, depletion of Treg cells, and suppression of myeloid-derived suppressor cells. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that VTP synergizes with PD-1 blockade and OX40 agonist to promote strong antitumor immune responses, yielding therapeutic efficacy in an animal model of urothelial cancer. 相似文献

The main peptides produced by hydrolysis of water buffalo beta-casein with plasmin were characterized by capillary electrophoresis and mass spectrometry and compared with their bovine homologous. A novel breakdown product arising from the hydrolysis of water buffalo beta-casein, originated by the presence of a plasmin-sensitive Lys bond at position 68 was identified, which was not present in bovine beta-casein. On the basis of this evidence, an improved procedure for the detection and the differentiation of the products of plasmin hydrolysis of bovine and water buffalo beta-casein by capillary isoelectric focusing was set-up. In the experimental conditions, the gamma-casein from the two species was efficiently separated. Comparison of the capillary electropherograms with those obtained by ultra-thin-layer isoelectric focusing, the reference method for routine analysis of plasmin digests of casein, suggests that capillary electrophoresis isoelectric focusing may constitute a successful alternative to the traditional slab gel electrophoresis analysis of plasmin digests of casein either for basic structural studies or for applications in the quality assessment of dairy products. 相似文献

Functionalization of polymers is a particular relevant approach in the field of biodegradable polymers, where modifications are often required to allow these materials to replace more conventional, not biodegradable polymers in a wider range of applications. This article will report on functionalization of poly(ε-caprolactone) with unsaturated monomers bearing either anhydride groups (PCL-g-(MA-GMA)) or tertiary amines (PCL-g-DMAEA), obtained through radical grafting in a Brabender mixer. Crystallization kinetics parameters have been determined with several techniques (rheology, optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry) and the results obtained are in good agreement. It was observed that the crystallization rate significantly increases in the case of the modified polymers. 相似文献

The flow-induced crystallization behavior of nanocomposites, containing isotactic poly(1-butene) (PB) and functionalized multi-walled
carbon nanotubes (MWNT), was investigated. Three different MWNT concentrations (0.1, 1, 5 wt%) were used to prepare the nanocomposites.
Effects of MWNT and shear flow on the crystallization parameters were evaluated separately. Rheological measurements based
on oscillatory shear revealed induction time and crystallization half-time at the quiescent state, where both parameters exhibited
the nucleating effect of MWNT on PB. Rheological measurements based on steady-state shear flow and short-time shear flow revealed
the evolution of molecular orientation, which was studied in both PB and its nanocomposites. A small increase in crystallization
kinetic was recorded in PB under shear having moderate values of the Weissenberg (We) number. On the other hand, a dramatic synergistic effect of MWNT and shear was detected under the same shear conditions
for nanocomposites. The optical microscopic images exhibited a clear transition from isotropic to row-like morphology in the
case of nanocomposites under shear. 相似文献

Summary The lineshapes of the absorption bands ofF
A
centres in alkali halides have been studied for the first time. The new method used for this investigation is based on the
determination of the overlap between theF
A1
andF
A2
bands from luminescence measurements. The experimental results have been compared with calculated values deduced from the
theoreticalF
A
bands of different shapes. For bothF
A
(I) centres in KCl: Na+ andF
A
(II) centres in KCl: Li+ and RbCl: Li+ the absorption lineshape at low temperature is much closer to a sum of two Lorentzian curves than that of two Gaussian or
Poissonian bands. This result shows an unexpected difference with theF centres, whose absorption lineshape is known to be Poissonian at the same temperatures.
Riassunto Sono state studiate per la prima volta le forme di riga delle bande di assorbimento dei centriF A in alogenuri alcalini. Il nuovo metodo usato per questa indagine è basato sulla determinazione attraverso misure di luminescenza della sovrapposizione fra le bandeF A1 eF A2 . I risultati sperimentali sono stati confrontati con i valori dedotti da bandeF A teoriche di diverse forme. La forma di riga dell'assorbimento a bassa temperatura, sia per i centriF A (I) in KCl: Na+ sia per i centriF A (II) in KCl: Li+ e RbCl: Li+, è approssimata molto meglio da una somma di due curve Lorentziane che da quella di due bande Gaussiane o Poissoniane. Questo risultato rivela una differenza imprevista rispetto ai centriF, il cui assorbimento ha una forma di riga Poissoniana alle stesse temperature.
Резюме Впервые исследуются формы линий зон поглощения дляF A центров в щелочно-галоидных соединениях. Предлагается новый метод исследования. Этот метод основан на определении перекрытия междуF A иF A2 зонами из измерений люминесценции. Экспериментальные результаты сравниваются с вычисленными величинами, полученными из теоретическихF A зон различной формы. ДляF A (I) центров в KCl: Na+ иF A (II) центров в KCl: Li+ и RbCl: Li+ форма линии поглощения при низких температурах оказывается ближе к сумме двух Лоренцевых кривых, а не двух Гауссовых или Пуассоновых зон. Этот результат обнаруживает неожиданное отличие отF центров, форма линии поглощения которых, как известно, представляет Пуассонову кривую при тех же температурах.相似文献

The orientational relaxation function in non-dilute isotropic solutions of semi-rigid polymers with different ladder-type oligophenylene monomer structures is recorded by time domain depolarized light scattering. The shape and the peculiar dependence of this function on the scattering angle arise from the coupling between orientational and shear translational motions. At sufficiently high concentrations, this coupling facilitates the opening of a faster relaxation channel better resolved in the forward scattering. The overall shape of the relaxation function is concentration-dependent, and the strength of the coupling appears to be system-specific. 相似文献

Orientation molecular dynamics were investigated in a series of "defect-free" oligofluorenes by depolarized dynamic light scattering and dynamic NMR spectroscopy. Typical liquid crystalline pretransitional dynamics were observed upon cooling the isotropic phase to the liquid crystalline phase with strong increase of the scattered intensity and slowing down of the characteristic time of the probed collective relaxation. This is well accounted for by the Landau-de Gennes theory, however, with a strong temperature dependence of the viscosity coefficient, reflecting the proximity of the glass transition. For the trimer the two transitions almost overlap and the molecular orientation coincide with the alpha-relaxation associated with the glass transition. The NMR measurements confirm that the time scale of the dynamics is completely governed by the glass process, yet the geometry of the motion is anisotropic, yielding order parameters ranging from 0.15 to 0.25 for the long axis in the liquid crystalline phase. The glass transition is therefore geometrically restricted with poorly ordered mesophase which is consistent with the weak transverse phonons in the light scattering experiment down to Tg+20 K. 相似文献
