Filter-radiometer-based realization of candela and establishment of photometric scale at UME

The luminous intensity unit of candela was realized based on filter-radiometer, which is traceable to detector-based primary standard electrical substitution cryogenic radiometer (ESCR). In that realization the traditional Osram Wi41/G-type incandescent lamp and filter-radiometer consisting of an aperture, a V(λ) filter and a silicon photodiode based trap detector were used as light source and detection element, respectively. Measurement techniques of effective aperture area, spectral transmittance of V(λ) filter and absolute responsivity of trap detector are also presented.

The title compound has analgesic activity of cycloaliphatic amine part. The molecule is deviated from planar configuration.     

4-Transitivity and 6-figures in some Moufang-Klingenberg planes

In this paper, the Moufang-Klingenberg plane over a local alternative ring R of dual numbers is studied. It is shown that its collineation group is transitive on quadrangles. It is therefore shown that the coordinatization of these Moufang-Klingenberg planes is independent of the choice of the coordinatization quadrangle. Also, the concept of 6-figures is extended to these Moufang-Klingenberg planes and it is shown that any 6-figure corresponds to only one inversible m ∈ R.     

Luteochrome; spektroskopische,chiroptische und chromatographische Eigenschaften

Two Optically Active Luteochromes: Preparation, Spectra and Chiroptical and Chromatographic Properties Selective rearrangement of (5R,6S,5′ R,6′S)-5,6:5′, 6′ -diepoxy-5,6,5′, 6′ -tetrahydro- β,β -carotene with the aid ofan ethereal solution of malonic acid leads to the mixture of the C(8′)-epimeric luteochromes. HPLC separation gave the pure isomers. This is the first report on th preparation of optically active luteochromes.     

Deshydratation de l'alun d'ammonium

Dehydration of hydrated ammonium alum is a function of physical gaseous pressure. During dehydration, two kinds of partially dehydrated amorphous alum appears. These solids differ in texture and residual water composition.

     

High mobility of dithiophene-tetrathiafulvalene single-crystal organic field effect transistors

Single-crystal field effect transistors of the organic semiconductor dithiophene-tetrathiafulvalene (DT-TTF) were prepared by drop casting. Long, thin crystals connected two microfabricated gold electrodes, and a silicon substrate was used as a back gate. The highest hole mobility observed was 1.4 cm2/Vs, which is the highest reported for an organic semiconductor not based on pentacene. A high ON/OFF ratio of at least 7 x 105 was obtained for this device.     

Thermal analysis of lanthanide polyphosphates

Summary A study of thermal analysis of some lanthanide polyphosphates has been reported. The DTA curves of Ce, Pr and Sm polyphosphates were of similar nature. They exhibited a sharp exothermic peak indicating crystallization temperature (T _c) around 520 °C. However, no peak indicatingT _m was observed upto 800 °C. TG curves of Ce, La, Pr, Sm, Y polyphosphates indicated weight loss occurring in three stages. The integral procedural decomposition thermal analysis (ipdt) indicated that these materials had refractory nature.With 4 figures and 2 tables     

Effect of electrolyte on surface free energy components of feldspar minerals using thin-layer wicking method

Application of the thin-layer wicking (TLW) technique on powdered minerals is useful for characterizing their surfaces. Albite (Na-feldspar) and orthoclase (K-feldspar) are feldspar minerals which are frequently found in the same matrix. Despite similarities in their physicochemical properties, separation of these minerals from each other by flotation is generally possible in the presence of monovalent salts such as NaCl. Both albite and orthoclase exhibit the same microflotation properties and rather close electrokinetic profiles in the absence of salt. In this study, contact angles of albite and orthoclase determined by the TLW technique yielded close values in the absence and presence of amine collector. While the calculated surface energies and their components determined using contact angle data reveal that the energy terms remain farther apart in the absence of the collector, the differences narrow down at collector concentrations where full flotation recoveries are obtained. However, the effect of addition of NaCl on contact angles and surface free energy components at constant amine concentration indicates that albite is significantly affected by salt addition, whereas orthoclase remains marginally affected. This interesting finding is explained on the basis of ion-exchange properties, the stability of the interface, flotation data, and zeta potential data in the presence of NaCl.
