An inverse radiative transfer problem of simultaneously estimating profiles of temperature and radiative parameters from boundary intensity and temperature measurements

A parallel-plane space filled with absorbing, emitting, isotropically scattering, gray medium is studied in this paper. The boundary intensity and boundary temperature profiles are calculated for the inverse analysis. For the simultaneous estimation of temperature, absorption and scattering coefficient profiles in the medium, the sum of residuals of boundary intensity and temperature after being weighted by a balance factor is minimized through using a Newton-type iteration algorithm and the least-squares method. To avoid over-updating for the parameters, the relative updating magnitude during the iteration process is constrained not to be >0.5. It is shown that the boundary intensity measurement alone is not enough to estimate simultaneously the temperature (source) and the radiative properties (both absorption and scattering coefficients) when the measurement data contain sensitive random errors. The boundary temperature measurement can serve as a necessary supplementation to the boundary intensity to make this kind of inverse radiative transfer problem resolvable. It was shown that a compensation relationship between absorption and scattering coefficients makes it difficult to fix them accurately. Parabolic profiles for the three parameters are used to validate the estimation method. When the optical thickness approaches 4.0, the results for the radiative properties are not acceptable, although the result for temperature profile is reasonable. This means the method needs further improvements.     

Temperature Sensitivity Control and Mechanical Stress Effect of Boron-Doped Long-Period Fiber Gratings

We will present in this work the quantitative analysis of the relationship between the doping concentrations of GeO 2 and B 2 O 3 in the core and cladding regions and the temperature sensitivity of the resonance wavelength shift in long-period fiber gratings (LPFGs). Based on this analysis, the temperature sensitivity was suppressed and enhanced to 0.002 nm/C and 0.28 nm/C, respectively. We will also discuss the effect of the residual mechanical stress on the optical and mechanical properties of LPFGs. In particular, we will present the measurement results of the dependence of the refractive index change and mechanical strength on the residual mechanical stress in the boron-doped fibers with depressed clad and matched clad.     

BLENDS OF STYRENE-BUTADIENE-STYRENE TRIBLOCK COPOLYMER AND ISOTACTIC POLYPROPYLENE. REINFORCING EFFECT OF POLYPROPYLENE AT HIGH TEMPERATURES

Blends of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) triblock copolymer with isotactic polypropylene (iPP) or maleic anhydride–grafted polypropylene (MAP) were prepared in a twin-screw extruder. Static and dynamic experiments at room temperature in previous works showed that the added homopolymers have a significant influence in the improvement of the general mechanical properties of the SBS when the homopolymer is the dispersed phase. Our aim was to study the reinforcing effect as a function of temperature. When the glass transition of the polystyrene blocks in the SBS is approached (40°C–50°C in static experiments), there is a significant worsening of the failure properties, as well as a profile change in the stress-strain plot. If a reinforcing hard phase is added, these changes can be decreased. The temperature dependence of the reinforcing effect of the added homopolymer was evaluated with the analysis of tensile experiments in terms of various theoretical models. A modified activation energy model with temperature-dependent parameters was used to describe the nonlinear regime and quantitatively compare the properties of the different blends with those of pure SBS.     

1H NMR Studies on the Methylation,Protonation, and Hydration Sites in Some Benzo[b]Naphthyridines (Azaacridines)

Abstract

The 300.13 MHz ¹H NMR spectra of the methylated and protonated 6(9)-methylbenzo[b][1,x] naphthyridines (x=5, 6, 7, 8) (5-methylazaacridines) were collected at 298 K in deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide and chloroform, respectively. The methylation and protonation sites were assigned by comparisons of these data with those of the free bases. The results were compared with similar data for related heterocycles and showed that both methylation and protonation occur at the nitrogen in the outer pyrido ring in all four series.

The hydration site in some 2-and 3-azaacridines was determined by specific line broadening in their ¹H NMR spectra to be the same nitrogen as that involved in methylation and protonation. Variable temperature ¹H NMR demonstrated that the specific line broadening results from some changes of ¹⁴N quadrupolar relaxation produced by the slow chemical exchange between unhydrated and hydrated species. Deuterium exchange experiments indicated that the direct spin-spin interaction of a water proton and the protons alpha to the hydrated nitrogen may also have some contribution.

一种非接触式稀土荧光自参比温度传感器

发展了一种非接触式稀土荧光自参比温度传感器,即将有机稀土配合物K[Yb(Az)₄]包埋在苯乙烯-甲基丙烯酸甲酯共聚物中,并附着在洁净的石英片上制备得到了温度传感薄膜Yb@PSMM。通过研究不同温度下Yb3+的荧光发射光谱,利用其在近红外波段荧光性质随温度变化的规律,开发了一种比率型稀土荧光温度传感方法,其原理是通过不同温度下Yb3+的荧光发射光谱的形状随温度的变化,结合在不同温度下Yb3+的核外电子在外层Stark劈裂亚能级上的分布符合Boltzmann分布律的特点,利用其近红外荧光发射光谱中900 nm~990 nm波长范围内与990~1 150 nm波长范围内的积分峰面积比的自然对数与温度的倒数呈现的线性关系作为温度测量的标准曲线,实现了-195~105 ℃范围内的温度精确测量。经考察,该发光温度传感器在0 ℃附近的温度测量分辨率达到了0.1 ℃。与已报道的发光温度传感器相比,提出的新型温度传感器具有如下几个优势：其一,所选用的发光材料的Stokes位移大于500 nm,有效地避免了环境背景干扰;其二,由于采用荧光积分峰面积而非荧光强度作为考察对象,大大减小了测量中由于仪器或测量次数较少引入的随机误差;其三,采用同一发光材料的荧光发射光谱中两个荧光峰面积的比值,相当于在体系中引入了自参比,有效避免了由于荧光材料的浓度、几何构型以及光源强度等外界因素变化对测量结果产生的影响;其四,利用稀土发光材料作为温度传感材料,可以利用其荧光寿命长、单色性好、强度高的特点;其五,温度传感膜本身不溶于水,也不在水中扩散,便于直接测量原位温度变化;其六,Yb3+的发光位于900~1 150 nm的近红外波长范围,而这个波段的荧光具有较好的穿透性使得该温度传感器有望在复杂体系的温度传感、成像等领域发挥重要作用。在实际测量的装置中,通过调整光路使得辐照在样品上的入射光斑大小仅约为1 mm2,并将Yb@PSMM固体膜样品的放置方向与入射激发光的夹角设置为225°,从而规避了入射光源的反射光对检测器的影响,而具有较好穿透能力的近红外荧光几乎不受影响,从而进一步确保了该温度传感器的测量结果。
