Broadband Antireflection Subwavelength Gratings for Polymethyl Methacrylate Fabricated with Molding Technique

We fabricated a two-dimensional subwavelength grating (SWG) on a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) film using a molding technique. A method of fabricating SWGs with high accuracy using a replica technique in an atmospheric environment was proposed. The SWG consisted of tapered gratings with a 200 nm period and a 200 nm deep groove. The reflectivity at wavelengths from 400 nm to 800 nm was measured and compared with the results calculated on the basis of rigorous coupled-wave analysis. At these wavelengths, the reflectivity decreased to approximately half that of the PMMA film.

稀土氧化物对连铸保护渣粘度的影响

通过实验室自配渣研究了稀土氧化物对保护渣粘度的影响。研究表明，稀土氧化物提高了保护渣粘度，特别是当其含量大于10％后最为明显；稀土氧化物导致保护渣粘度升高的原因是生成的高熔点物相随温度降低析出；稀土氧化物在保护渣中具有一定溶解度，当稀土氧化物在保护渣中出现过饱和时，未溶解的固态质点使保护渣粘度随之升高；Li2O，B2O3和BaO可以降低液态保护渣粘度，同时可以提高保护渣溶解吸收稀土氧化物的能力，但是其加入量应控制在合理的范围之内。稀土氧化物可以显著提高保护渣凝固温度，这对铸坯．结晶器之间的传热和润滑非常不利。

A novel dual surface modification on titanium in dental use: Characterization and topography

This laboratory study aimed to compare, contrast, and evaluate the effect of a novel dual surface modification method on the adhesion strength of resin composite cement to titanium. C.p.-2 grade titanium samples were silica-coated, etched with HNO₃(69vol %) or a blend of HCl (35vol %) and H₃PO₄ (85vol %), for 1 h at 80°C. Surface roughness was measured by surface roughness profilometry, topographic analysis by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and surface analyses by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Silanization of all specimens was carried out after SEM, EDX, and AFM analysis, before enclosed mold microshear bond strength testing (EM-μSBS). Adhesion strengths were measured after artificial ageing: 1 day, 1 week, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks by EM-μSBS testing and failure mode analysis by optical microscopy. Polished titanium was used as a control. The highest surface roughness was observed in titanium samples treated with silica-coating + HCl-H₃PO₄ etching. The elemental composition confirmed the presence of Ti, O, C, with Si and Al in samples treated with silica-coating. A gradual decrease in EM-μSBS values was observed in all titanium samples with adhesive and cohesive failure modes. The novel dual surface modification method applied in this study suggests that silica-coating + HCl-H₃PO₄etching strongly affects titanium surface topography and roughness. The presence of Si on silica-coated surface modified titanium before silanization with an experimental silane has a positive effect on the EM-μSBS of titanium samples treated with silica-coating only or silica-coating + HNO₃ etching.     

Characterization of volatile metabolites formed by molds on barley by mass and ion mobility spectrometry

The contamination of barley by molds on the field or in storage leads to the spoilage of grain and the production of mycotoxins, which causes major economic losses in malting facilities and breweries. Therefore, on‐site detection of hidden fungus contaminations in grain storages based on the detection of volatile marker compounds is of high interest. In this work, the volatile metabolites of 10 different fungus species are identified by gas chromatography (GC) combined with two complementary mass spectrometric methods, namely, electron impact (EI) and chemical ionization at atmospheric pressure (APCI)‐mass spectrometry (MS). The APCI source utilizes soft X‐radiation, which enables the selective protonation of the volatile metabolites largely without side reactions. Nearly 80 volatile or semivolatile compounds from different substance classes, namely, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, substituted aromatic compounds, alkenes, terpenes, oxidized terpenes, sesquiterpenes, and oxidized sesquiterpenes, could be identified. The profiles of volatile and semivolatile metabolites of the different fungus species are characteristic of them and allow their safe differentiation. The application of the same GC parameters and APCI source allows a simple method transfer from MS to ion mobility spectrometry (IMS), which permits on‐site analyses of grain stores. Characterization of IMS yields limits of detection very similar to those of APCI‐MS. Accordingly, more than 90% of the volatile metabolites found by APCI‐MS were also detected in IMS. In addition to different fungus genera, different species of one fungus genus could also be differentiated by GC‐IMS.     

Double yielding in PA6: Effect of mold temperature and moisture content

In this study we have investigated the effect of mold temperature and moisture content on double yielding of virgin polyamide 6 (PA6) uniaxially deformed at room temperature. The experimental results have revealed that, to a certain extent, a limited increment in both mold temperature and moisture content will make the second yield process become more apparent. However, the double yielding behavior will disappear totally in the case of much higher mold temperature and moisture content. Instead, a typical single sharp yield or brittle fracture will be present in the former case, while in the latter case the samples only display a very broad yield, similar to a rubber‐like deformation. Maybe two critical states will be in existence in PA6 exhibiting double yielding behavior, and the critical states are probably relevant with the concentration of the interlinks and intralinks, the lamellae perfection and the crystallite size. Particular emphasis should be placed on the role of interlinks and intralinks when considering the origin of double yielding of virgin PA6 since these links affect the stress transfer significantly. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
