Design and Evaluation of Computer Generated Hologram with Binary Subwavelength Structure Designed by Deterministic Process

A binary subwavelength structure for multilevel phase modulation can be designed by our previously proposed deterministic design method without iterative optimization method. To use our design technique in various applications of a computer generated hologram (CGH) like an array illuminator, beam-shaping, signal processing, and so on, an image quality of a reconstructed image from a CGH has become much more important. In this paper, we verify the image quality of a reconstructed image from a CGH designed by our method in terms of the modulation transfer function (MTF) and the spatial resolution. Simulation results show that our technique can theoretically achieve a MTF of more than 99% over a wide range and a spatial resolution of less than 9.66μm.     

Chemical effects in high-resolution nickel Kalpha X-ray fluorescence spectra.

The nickel Kalpha spectra of oxides, halides (NiF2, K2NiF6, NiCl2, NiBr2), complex compounds, and metal are measured with two different double-crystal X-ray fluorescence spectrometers. The peak shifts and line width changes due to the changes in the chemical states are reported. High reproducibility has been shown for the chemical shift and line width measurements. The DV-Xalpha molecular orbital calculation at the ground and the 1s(-1) hole states was performed to prove that the chemical effect originats from the charge-transfer mechanism.     

Mechanical fabrication of metal nano-contacts showing conductance quantization under electrochemical potential control

We have mechanically fabricated Ni and Cu nano-constrictions in solution to study their quantized conductance behavior under electrochemical potential control. Conductance quantization was observed at both metals in solution at room temperature for the first time. The conductance of Cu nano-constriction was quantized in units of G₀(=2e²/h). A sharp 1G₀ peak was observed in the conductance histogram. For Ni, a rather broad peak at 1–1.5G₀ was observed in the histogram. The conductance quantization behavior was discussed by comparing previously documented results of nano-constrictions fabricated in air or ultra-high vacuum conditions, with those fabricated in solution.     

One-pot synthesis of 4-substituted 4-alkoxy-1,4-dihydro-3,1-benzoxazine-2-thiones by the reaction of 2-isothiocyanatobenzoates with organolithiums

An efficient one-pot procedure for the preparation of 4-substituted 4-alkoxy-1,4-dihydro-3,1-benzoxazine-2-thiones from 2-isothiocyanatobenzoates has been developed. Thus, 2-isothiocyanatobenzoates were reacted with organolithiums including lithium enolates of acetates and tertiary acetamides in THF at −78 °C to give the desired products in generally good yields.     

Size-dependent inclusion of organic molecules into elastic pillared carbons

Size selective inclusion of organic molecules into pillared carbons accompanied by large interlayer expansions was observed for the first time. In order to achieve this, the distance between two adjacent pillars should be between 0.36 and 0.40 nm and they should align in the same direction.     

Normalizing and variance stabilizing transformations for intraclass correlations

Summary A concept of normalizing transformations of statistics is constructed on the basis of the rate of convergence to normality. The concept is applied to derive a normalizing transformation of a maximum likelihood estimate of intraclass correlation coefficient in ap-variate normal sample. Numerical comparisons are made to examine whether the proposed transformation is efficient to achieve normality. The relationship between normalization and variance stabilization is also considered.

Die Löslichkeit von aromatischen Verbindungen mit polaren Gruppen in Wasser

Zusammenfassung Die Löslichkeiten folgender Verbindungen wurden in Wasser bei 5°-Intervallen von 0° bis 40° bestimmt; Anilin, Mtrobenzol, Chlorbenzol,-Oxynaphthalin und-Nitronaphthalin. Aus diesen Ergebnissen wurden die thermodynamischen Parameter für den Lösungsprozeß der reinen flüssigen Verbindungen in Wasser berechnet. Das Resultat wurde mit Hilfe des Begriffs der Eisberge erklärt.Beim Benzol, Anilin und Chlorbenzol waren die Lösungswärmen negativ bei niedrigeren Temperaturen und wurden mit steigender Temperatur positiver. Dagegen traten beim Nitrobenzol,-Oxynaphthalin und-Nitronaphthalin stets die positiven Lösungswärmen auf. Dies sollte auf die großen intermolekularen Kräfte in der reinen Flüssigkeit zurückzuführen sein.     

Photoluminescence and luminescence excitation spectra in ZnSiP2

Summary Measurements of photoluminescence and luminescence excitation spectra of ZnSiP₂ have been performed at 4.2K and two results were obtained. One is the observation of a new sharp emission line at 1.980 eV, due to the bound exciton associated with the pseudodirect gap. The other is the observation of another new series of absorption lines in the luminescence excitation spectrum of an emission line, at 1.984 eV, in addition to those reported previously. These results indicate that in ZnSiP₂ radiative transitions occur at both the indirect and the pseudodirect gaps. Paper presented at the ?V International Conference on Ternary and Multinary Compound?, held in Cagliari, September 14–16, 1982.
