Investigation of the reflectivity of highly doped gallium arsenide in a wide spectral range

The optical properties of highly doped single crystals and diffused layers of p-type gallium arsenide were investigated in the spectral range from 0.2 to 25. A technique has been suggested and experimentally tested; it provides for transparent selective coatings and their application, as well as for a modification of the surface microrelief for reducing the reflection coefficient in the desired spectral range.

Quantum-chemical investigation of some oligomeric heteroaromatic compounds

Indigo and its dimer, trimer, dehydro, and leuco forms were investigated within the framework of the Pariser-Parr-Pople method. The electronic structures of the compounds in the ground and excited states and the effect of chain lengthening are discussed, and the UV absorption spectra are interpreted. Several characteristics of the chromaticity of the investigated compounds as representatives of vat dyes are examined. The estimated (from calculations) energetic favorability of the indigoid, dehydro, and leuco forms of indigo is used in discussing the observed and experimental ease of redox transformations of indigo.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 794–798, June, 1972.     

Estimating stability in the problem of reconstructing the additive type of a distribution

A numerical estimate of stability is obtained in the problem of reconstructing the additive type of a distribution via the distribution of a maximal invariant.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im V.
