WEAR OF DRY FRICTION PAIRS CONSISTING OF HIGH-CARBON CHROME-VANADIUM STEELS AND HARD ALLOYS

Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics - The wear resistance of DI37-VI and EK80-VI steel is studied using a friction testing device. A sample made of high-carbon chromium-vanadium...     

Spectral separation of Cr<Superscript>3+</Superscript> optical centers in stoichiometric magnesium-doped lithium niobate crystals

The broadband luminescence of chromium optical centers with strongly overlapping spectral lines and similar emission probabilities from excited ⁴ T ₂ states of red and green Cr³⁺ centers in stoichiometric magnesium-doped lithium niobate crystals has been separated for the first time. The spectral-luminescence characteristics and parameters of intracenter interaction between red and green optical Cr³⁺ centers in stoichiometric lithium niobate have been calculated. The luminescence quantum efficiencies of red and green chromium centers are determined.
