Pigment identification and decoration analysis of a 5th century Chinese lacquer painting screen: a micro‐Raman and FTIR study

To investigate the pigments and decoration applied to a wood‐based lacquer painting screen from the tomb of Si‐ma Jin‐long, Shanxi Province, central China, made by Chinese craftsmen in the 5th century, a combination of micro‐Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), wavelength dispersive X‐ray fluorescence (WDXRF), and microscopic examination was used. The obtained results are as follows: (1) the black, yellow, and red colors are identified as carbon black, orpiment and realgar, and cinnabar, respectively, by using micro‐Raman spectroscopy. The FTIR result shows that the white pigment filled in the leaves is not lead white, as assumed in the literature, but gypsum. Whether lead white was used at other locations remains unanswered and requires more samples for further work; (2) the thickness of each discernable pigment layer, as observed under the microscope, is approximately equal and the differences among them are small, suggesting a superfine painting skill; besides, a noticeable smooth interface between wood and the red grounding substance indicates that a polishing process might have been applied before the painting; (3) the red background was proved to contain cinnabar, but further FTIR analyses found no evidence for the presence of Chinese wood oil; and (4) the most interesting finding, rarely reported before, is that white grains of different sizes are found in both pigment layers and the grounding substance, which are perhaps an intentional addition. Further, in situ XRF and Raman analyses indicate that they are sourced from hydroxyapatite, coming probably from the intentional addition of animal bone ash to the lacquer. But how such a process could be finished and what purpose it served have not yet been answered. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Rugged distal tips for CO2 laser medicine

Low-loss and rugged distal tips for CO₂ laser have been proposed and fabricated based on a commercially available stainless steel (St) pipe. A method of smoothening the inner surface of the St pipe with a rough inner surface is put forward. Fabrication parameters, transmission properties, and mechanical strength of the cyclic olefin polymer-coated silver hollow St distal tip are experimentally discussed.     

探针尖带金属微粒的光子扫描隧道显微镜成像数值模拟

引入了色散介质的时域有限差分法散射场方程,并针对光子扫描隧道显微镜的带金属尖光纤扫描成像问题进行三维的数值模拟。在考虑了光纤和样品相互作用的情况下,采用等效入射波法设置入射波,探针扫描模式为等高扫描模式,从成像分辨力和灵敏度的角度,比较了不同入射角、不同的光纤一样品间距,不同金属类型,及不同金属尖大小的成像情况。数值模拟结果显示,带金属颗粒光纤探针尖的光子扫描隧道显微镜在成像分辨力和灵敏度上有显著的改进,而带不同类型金属颗粒情况下对分辨力影响不大,灵敏度是银最好。

Electro-optically Q-switched Nd:YVO4 slab laser with a high repetition rate and a short pulse width

We report on a compact and highly efficient diode-end-pumped TEM00 Nd:YVO4 slab laser with an output power of 103 W and beam quality M2 < or = 1.5. The optical-to-optical efficiency was 41.5%. In electro-optically Q-switched operation, 83 W of average power at a pulse-repetition rate of 50 kHz with a pulse length of 11.3 ns was obtained. At a pulse-repetition rate of 10 kHz, 5.6 mJ of pulse energy, and 870 kW of peak power were measured.     

Determination of bulk viscosity of liquid water via pulse duration measurements in stimulated Brillouin scattering

We present a method by which to determine the bulk viscosity of water from pulse duration measurements of stimulated Brillouin scattering （SBS）. Beginning from a common model of Brillouin scattering, the bulk viscosity is shown to play an important role in Brillouin linewidth determination. Pulse durations of SBS back-reflected optical pulses are measured over the temperature range of 5-40℃. SBS linewidths are de- termined via Fourier transformation of the time-domain results, and the bulk viscosity of water is measured and derived from the obtained values. Our results show that the proposed method for measurement of pulse durations is an effective approach for determining bulk viscosity. The method can be easily extended to determine bulk viscosities of other Newtonian liquids.     

丙烯腈-尿素包合物的形成过程及特征

利用差示扫描量热法(DSC)和X射线衍射(XRD)研究了在不同丙烯腈/尿素投料比情况下的丙烯腈-尿素包合物的形成过程和组成. 实验结果表明DSC是一种研究包合物的客主比及分解热的有效方法. 测定了丙烯腈-尿素包合物的客主比和分解热分别为1.17和5361.53 J/mol. 同时发现丙烯腈-尿素包合物的形成依赖于冷冻时间,在足够长的冷冻时间之后丙烯腈-尿素包合物的组成达到稳定状态. 实验结果表明,丙烯腈分子可能是采用堆叠的方式排布在尿素晶道结构中. XRD结果表明只要丙烯腈分子进入尿素晶格中,丙烯腈-尿素包合物的结构便形成了,并且这种结构与形成过程终了时的结构是一致的. 只要丙烯腈是足量的,包合物中的丙烯腈分子排列会随冷冻时间的延长而增长,直到尿素的晶道结构被丙烯腈分子填满.
