Analysis of pulsed laser plasmon-assisted photothermal heating and bubble generation at the nanoscale

A study is presented of photothermal effects associated with nanosecond-pulsed laser-illuminated subwavelength metallic nanoparticles in aqueous solutions. Computational electromagnetic and fluid analysis are used to model fundamental aspects of the photothermal process taking into account energy conversion within the nanoparticle at plasmon resonance, heat transfer to the fluid, homogeneous bubble nucleation, and the dynamic behaviour of the bubble and surrounding fluid. Various nanoparticle geometries are modelled including spheres, nanorods and tori. The analysis demonstrates that the laser intensity and pulse duration can be tuned to achieve controllable bubble generation without exceeding the melting temperature of the particle. The analysis also shows that the particle geometry can be tuned to optimize photothermal energy conversion for bubble generation at wavelengths that span the UV to NIR spectrum. Multiparticle systems are studied and a cooperative heating effect is demonstrated for particles that are within a few radii of each other. This provides more robust bubble generation using substantially reduced laser energy as compared to single-particle systems. The modelling approach is discussed in detail and should be of considerable use in the development of new photothermal applications.

Computable error bounds for pointwise derivatives of a Neumann problem

In this paper we discuss the recovery of derivatives and thecomputation of rigorous and useful upper bounds for the pointwiseerror in the recovered derivatives, for finite element approximationsof the Laplace equation with Neumann boundary conditions, especiallyat points close to or on a smooth, curved boundary. We analyzethe dipole image technique for the case of curved boundaries,and show how to compute reliable recovered derivatives and errorbounds even in the limiting case of points lying on the curvedboundary. Numerical experiments show reasonably tight errorbounds for points both close to and away from a curved boundary.     

Self-assembled growth of nanostructural Ge islands on bromine-passivated Si(111) surfaces at room temperature

We have deposited relatively thick (∼60 nm) Ge layers on Br-passivated Si(111) substrates by thermal evaporation under high vacuum conditions at room temperature. Ge has grown in a layer-plus-island mode although it is different from the Stranski-Krastanov growth mode observed in epitaxial growth. Both the islands and the layer are nanocrystalline. This appears to be a consequence of reduction of surface free energy of the Si(111) substrate by Br-passivation. The size distribution of the Ge nanoislands has been determined. The Br-Si(111) substrates were prepared by a liquid treatment, which may not produce exactly reproducible surfaces. Nevertheless, some basic features of the nanostructural island growth are reasonably reproducible, while there are variations in the details of the island size distribution.     

Determination by Raman scattering of the nature of pigments in cultured freshwater pearls from the mollusk Hyriopsis cumingi

The nature of pigments in naturally colored pearls is still under discussion. For this study, Raman scattering measurements were obtained for 30 untreated freshwater cultured pearls from the mollusk Hyriopsis cumingi covering their typical range of colors. The originality of this work is that seven different excitation wavelengths (1064 nm, 676.44 nm, 647.14 nm, 514.53 nm, 487.98 nm, 457.94 nm, 363.80 nm) are used for the same samples at the highest possible resolution. All colored pearls show the two major Raman features of polyenic compounds assigned to double carbon–carbon (CC) – at about 1500 cm⁻¹ – and single carbon–carbon (C C) – at about 1130 cm⁻¹ – bond stretching mode, regardless of their specific hue. These peaks are not detected in the corresponding white pearls, and therefore seem directly related to the major cause of body color. Additionally, the exact position of CC stretching vibration shows that these compounds are not members of the carotenoid family. Moreover, some changes are observed in intensities, shape and positions of the two main characteristic polyenic peaks from one sample to the next. Similar changes are observed also using several excitation wavelengths for the same point of the same pearl. The exact position of C C stretching vibration of polyenic molecules depends strongly on the number of double bonds (N) contained in their polyenic chain. Hence, using a constrained decomposition of this band for different excitation wavelengths, up to nine different pigments may be detected in the same pearl. Their general chemical formula is R‐( CHCH )_N‐R′ with N = 6–14. All our colored samples contained at least four pigments (N = 8–11). Different colors are explained by different mixtures, not by a simple change of pigment. The chemical nature of the chain ends is still unknown, because it cannot be detected with Raman scattering. However, it is possible that these polyenes are complexed with carbonate molecules of the nacre. Similar coloration mechanisms are found in products from other living organisms (e.g. parrots feathers). Moreover, it seems that a similar series of pigments is found in other pearls also, as well as in some marine animals living in similar environments (e.g. corals).

Use of the Raman spectrometer in gemmological laboratories: review

The current paper gives an overview of the development of Raman spectrometry in gemmological laboratories. While before 1990s, no commercial gemmological laboratory possessed such an instrument, all larger international labs have acquired these instruments by now. The Raman spectrometer is routinely used for the detection of emerald fillers, HPHT treatment of diamonds, analysis of the nature of a gemstone, analysis of gemstone inclusions and treatments, and the characterisation of natural or colour enhanced pearls and corals. Future developments in gemstone research lie in the closer analysis of the features of Raman and PL spectra and in the combination of several instruments.
