Computation of Dispersion in Microstrip Line with Anisotropic Substrate and Overlay

This paper presents an analysis of frequency dependent propagation characteristics of microstrip lines with anisotropic substrate and overlay. The method involves setting up of the Greens functions corresponding to the structure and formulating a dispersion relation in Fourier transform domain. The dispersion relation is constructed in a Galerkins procedure. Numerical results are also presented.     

A Class of k-Quantum Nonlinear Coherent States and Some of Their Properties

A class of k-quantum nonlinear coherent states, i.e., the k eigenstates of the powers B ^k (k 3) of the annihilation operator of f-oscillators, is obtained and its completeness is investigated. An alternative method to construct them is proposed. We introduce a new kind of higher-order squeezing and sub-Poissonian distribution. The quantum statistical properties of the k states are studied. The result shows that all of the eigenstates can be generated by a linear superposition of k Roy-type nonlinear coherent states. These states may form a complete Hilbert space, and the M-th order [M = (n + 1/2)k; n = 0,1, ...] squeezing effects exist in all of the k states when k is even. There is the sub-Poissonian distribution in all of the states.     

Lipase-mediated deracemization of secondary 1-phenyl-substituted propargylic alcohols of different topology

Acetylation of (±)-1-phenylnon-2-yn-1-ol, (±)-1-phenylhept-1-yn-3-ol, and (±)-1-phenylundec-4-yn-3-ol ((±)-5) in the presence of lipase from Candida cylindracea (CCL) proceeds slowly to give products with ee 20%. The acetates of these alcohols are hydrolyzed in the presence of porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) equally unsatisfactorily. The (⁶-arene)tricarbonylchromium complex of alcohol (±)-5 is acetylated in the presence of CCL up to 22% conversion to give (R)-acetate whose oxidative decomplexation followed by saponification results in alcohol (R)-(–)-5 with ee 95%. The configuration of alcohols (–)-5 and (+)-5 was determined by NMR spectroscopy of their esters with (R)- and (S)-Mosher"s acids.

Effects of phonon-phonon coupling on low-lying states in neutron-rich Sn isotopes

Starting from an effective Skyrme interaction we present a method to take into account the coupling between one- and two-phonon terms in the wave functions of excited states. The approach is a development of a finite rank separable approximation for the quasiparticle RPA calculations proposed in our previous work. The influence of the phonon-phonon coupling on energies and transition probabilities for the low-lying quadrupole and octupole states in the neutron-rich Sn isotopes is studied.     

Phase-matched high-order harmonics by interaction of Ar atoms with high-repetition-rate low-energy femtosecond laser pulses

High-order harmonics are generated by coherent interaction of an intense laser and atoms or molecules[1]. With the development of the intense ultrashort pulse laser, the research of high-order harmonic generation has reached the water-window in spectral region[2] and subfemtosecond in time domain[3]. Especially, the generation and application of subfemtosecond pulse led the study of high-order harmonic generation into a completely new world[4, 5]. It has made the study of ultrafast science fro…     

Single-particle light scattering study of polyethyleneglycol-grafted poly(ureaurethane) microcapsule in ethanol

Microcapsules having polyethyleneglycol-grafted poly(ureaurethane) (PUU) membrane and di-2ethylhexyl phthalate core have been prepared, and the structure when they were suspended in dispersing ethanol have been studied by means of single-particle light scattering method. The PUU membrane was synthesized from monomers with aromatic functional groups (microcapsule MC110) and hexamethylene functional groups (microcapsule MC160). Because the outer and inner solvent passed through the membrane easily, the outside and inside of the membrane were the same at the equilibrium state. The thickness of the wall membrane was significantly smaller than that calculated from the overall weight ratio of the wall-forming material and the core solvents. It was attributed to low affinity of PUU membranes and ethanol.

Thermodynamic equilibrium of the solute distribution in size-exclusion chromatography

Our understanding of the nature of solute retention in size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) is predicated upon an equilibrium, entropy-controlled, size-exclusion mechanism. The entropic nature of the separation depends, in turn, upon the solute distribution coefficient (K(SEC) being at (or close to) thermodynamic equilibrium. Classic experiments to confirm this assumption were performed over thirty years ago. Here, we combine information obtained from both flow and static mixing SEC experiments to show that the solute distribution in SEC is in thermodynamic equilibrium over a molar mass range extending one order of magnitude higher than previously measured (from 2 x 10(3) to 1.1 x 10(6) Da) using crosslinked polystyrene packing material of identical pore size (10(4) A). The differences between our observations and previous ones conducted over three decades ago are ascribed, principally, to advances in stationary phase synthesis and column technology for SEC in particular and, secondarily, to improvements in the performance of the various instrumental components of liquid chromatographic systems in general.
