Multiwavelength distributed-feedback dye laser array and its application to spectroscopy

A multiwavelength, multistripe tunable laser array is proposed, and its application to absorption spectroscopy is demonstrated. Laser waveguides doped with Rhodamine 6 G dye were integrated on a plastic chip, and simultaneous output at different wavelengths was obtained by use of a distributed-feedback technique. A very low threshold of 3 muJ was attained, and spectrally narrowed output (<0.1 nm) was obtained. A scheme for digital spectroscopy is also proposed based on this laser array, and absorption spectroscopy of sodium atoms without wavelength scanning is demonstrated by use of a sodium-vapor cell.     

Reduction of inelastic scattering effect by introduction of GalnAs/GalnP strain-compensated superlattice into multi-quantum barriers

The effect of inelastic scattering on the electron reflection in multi-quantum barriers (MQBs) has been examined using the damped resonant tunnelling model for the first time. The electron reflectivity in the virtual barrier region for unstrained GalnAs/InP MQB deteriorates below 100% by about 10% for phase relaxation time of 0.22ps. We propose a strain-compensated GalnAs/GalnP MQB which not only has virtual barrier 4 times as high as that of an unstrained MQB, but whose reflectivity deterioration is reduced to less than 5% in comparison with 10% for unstrained MQB for the same phase relaxation time. We have also successfully grown a Ga_0.25In_0.75As (1.5% compressive) well/Ga_0.25In_0.75P (1.2% tensile) barrier short-period superlattice with six wells by chemical beam epitaxy, which exhibits the possibility of fabrication of the strain-compensated MQBs.     

Random Ising model in the magnetic field at T = 0: I. The distribution of the effective fields

The integral equation for the distribution function of the effective fields in the random Ising model in the finite external field is solved exactly at zero temperature in the one-dimensional case for 1) dilute ferromagnet, 2) dilute antiferromagnet and 3) ±J model. The ground state characteristics of these systems are obtained. In particular the effective fields in the ±J model are shown to have a triangular distribution in the zero external field limit.     

On maximal weights of Hadamard matrices

Let $\text{Ω}{}_{\mathrm{n}}$ denote the set of all Hadamard matrices of order n. For $\text{H ? Ω}{}_{\mathrm{n}}$, define the weight of H to be the number of 1's in H and is denoted by w(H). For a subset $\text{Γ ? Ω}{}_{\mathrm{n}}$, define the maximal weight of Γ as w(Γ) = max{w(H) | H?Γ}. Two Hadamard matrices are equivalent if one of them can be transformed to the other by permutation and negation of rows and columns, and the equivalence class containing H is denoted by [H]. In this paper, we shall derive lower bounds for w([H]), which are best possible for n ? 20. We shall also determine the exact value of $\text{w(Ω}{}_{32}\text{)}$.

Mono-N-amino salt of benzodiazines and naphthyridines

The mono-N-amino salts of 3-phenylcinnoline, phthalazine, 1-phenylphthalazine, 4-phenylquinazoline, 2-phenylquinoxaline, 1,5- and 1,8-naphthyridines are in high yields prepared by direct N-amination of the parent heterocycles with O-mesitylenesulfonylhydroxylamine. With the one expection of 3-phenylcinnoline, the site of N-amination was determined by mass and nmr spectral techniques. The results indicate that the N-amination occurs preferentially at the least sterically hindered nitrogen atom.     

Nonameric porphyrin assemblies--formation and intra-assembly energy transfer reactions

The nonameric porphyrin assemblies constructed with the series of free base tetraphenylporphyrins Pn having four pyrazine moieties linked with alkyl chains of different lengths, (CH2)n (n = 1, 5, 9, 17, 30), and dimeric [meso-tetrakis(2-carboxy-4-nonylphenyl)porphyrinato]zinc(II), ZnP2, show the effective light-collection effect and the typical Forster-type energy transfer from ZnP2 to Pn.
