The influence of the size of Y2O3 powder particles on the structure formation and densification of Nd3+:Y3Al5O12 laser ceramics has been studied. It is shown that the use of 50- and 100-nm yttrium oxide particles makes it possible to synthesize single-phase yttrium aluminum garnet at temperatures of 1200 and 1500°C, respectively, whereas in the case of 5000-nm yttrium oxide particles 2-h exposure at a temperature of 1500°C yields only 80 wt % of the Nd3+:Y3Al5O12 phase. Bulk swelling of pressed samples during sintering of 2.94Y2O3-0.06Nd2O3-5Al2O3 powders with the size ratio of the initial particles R(Al2O3/Y2O3) ~ 5 is observed. The application of different-sized powders (R ~ 2.5) provides quantitative ratios between phases in the 3Y2O3-5Al2O3 system at which shrinkage in a temperature range of 20–1500°C is dominant. Laser ceramics 0–2 at % Nd3+:Y3Al5O12 have been obtained by the solid-phase sintering of oxide powders (R ~ 2.5). The slope efficiency for 1 at % Nd3+:Y3Al5O12 laser ceramics is found to be 33%.
Recent studies of cholesteric systems are briefly reviewed, with special attention paid to the relationship between the molecular structure of the optically active molecules and the helical twisting features. Microscopic models are presented which provide an account of specific intermolecular interactions, conformational equilibria, etc. Mechanisms of dopant-induced helix distortions are discussed based on N.M.R. studies. The use of cholesteric systems as solvents for selective reflection spectroscopy is considered. 相似文献
Methods recently proposed for generating unipolar pulses in nonlinear media in terahertz and optical electromagnetic ranges are reviewed. Such pulses have nonzero “electric area” (time integral of the field strength over the entire duration of a pulse) and, correspondingly, a significant component of the field with zero frequency, thus exhibiting quasistatic properties. Effective generation of unipolar pulses would allow, e.g., transferring mechanical momentum to charged particles and, thereby, controlling the motion of wave packets of matter, which can be useful for compact accelerators of charged particles and for other applications. 相似文献
Asymmetrical carbocyanines with bridge groups in the chromophore, containing pyrylium, benzothiazolium, and pyridinium residues, were produced. The electronic and steric influence of the bridge groups on the spectral properties of the dyes was analyzed. The structure of the compounds obtained was confirmed by the data of electron spectroscopy and PMR spectroscopy. 相似文献
A method is described to compute the centrifugal constants from the first and second order energy moments. Presented as an illustration is a computation of the centrifugal constants of the H2O molecule for the 000 vibrational state; conditions proposed in [2] were imposed on the parameters of the unitary transformation; the centrifugal constants obtained under such conditions reproduce the spectrum to 0.1 cm–1 accuracy.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 8, pp. 80–84, August, 1973. 相似文献
The reflection spectra and the photonic band gaps of a one-dimensional composite photonic crystal are calculated for different filling factors (the ratio of the thickness of a silicon layer to the lattice constant A). A change in the refractive index of the filler in a photonic crystal leads to the shift of both edges for certain side photonic bands. It is shown that, with a change in the refractive index from 1.49 to 1.69, the shift of the edges (the tuning effect) can reach the value A/λ = 0.04 for the main photonic band and 0.08 for a side band. An additional criterion for designing a photonic crystal is the estimation of the sharpness of the edges of photonic bands in the reflection spectra. 相似文献
We carried out experimental studies of the self-assembly of metallic micron-size particles in poorly conducting liquid subject to a constant electric field. Depending on the experimental conditions, the particles self-assemble into long chains directed along the electric field lines and form vortices and other structures. The vortices perform Brownian-type random motion due to self-induced chaotic hydrodynamic flows. We measured the diffusivity constant of the vortices and the conductivity and mechanical stiffness of the chains. 相似文献
We have investigated a method for direct astatine labeling of proteins. Binding sites for astatine were created by coupling of a nido-carborane derivative to a protein, the human epidermal growth factor (hEGF), using two different conjugation methods - by glutaraldehyde cross-linking or by introduction of sulfohydryl groups by Traut's reagent with subsequent linking of ANC-1 with m-maleimidobenzoyl-N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide ester. The conjugates were astatinated using the Chloramine-T method in high yield. The best labeling was obtained by the glutaraldehyde conjugate with an average yield of 68±9%. In vitro stability tests indicated that the glutaraldehyde conjugated label was as stable as hEGF labeled with astatobenzoate. 相似文献
