Synthesis and characterization of chalcogenide glasses from the system Ga-Ge-Sb-S and preparation of a single-mode fiber at 1.55 μm
2008
International audience; The aim of this work is to study different compositions in the Ga-Ge-Sb-S system for the definition of two compositions compatible with the elaboration of a single-mode fiber at the 1.55 μm telecom wavelength. The variations of the glass transition temperature (Tg), the dilatation coefficient (α) and the refractive index (n) have been studied for two glasses series: GaxGe25−xSb10S65 (series 1), Ga5Ge25−xSb10S60+x (series 2). This study has lead to the choice of the Ga4Ge21Sb10S65 composition as clad glass for the preparation of the single-mode fiber and Ga5Ge20Sb10S65 composition as the core. The discrepancies for the studied parameters between the core and clad comp…
Quantum-chemical determination of Born–Oppenheimer breakdown parameters for rotational constants: the open-shell species CN, CO+ and BO
2013
The quantum-chemical protocol for computing Born-Oppenheimer breakdown corrections to rotational constants in the case of diatomic molecules is extended to open-shell species. The deviation from the Born-Oppenheimer equilibrium rotational constant is obtained by considering three contributions: the adiabatic correction to the equilibrium bond distance, the electronic contribution to the moment of inertia requiring the computation of the rotational g-tensor, and the so-called Dunham correction. Values for the Born-Oppenheimer breakdown parameters of CN, CO+, and BO in their (2)sigma(+) electronic ground states are reported based on coupled-cluster calculations of the involved quantities and …
Do Vulnerable Youth Dream Of Precarious Employment? Decision Making at (In/Ex) clusion Pathways
2015
Este trabajo aborda el análisis de los discursos de jóvenes que han tenido dificultades en su itinerario educativo y que han participado en “itinerarios de segunda oportunidad”. A partir de entrevistas a jóvenes, pretendemos aproximarnos a los argumentos desde los que dan sentido a sus itinerarios académicos y a las decisiones a las que se han enfrentado. Estos argumentos muestran fuertes implicaciones de la posición social de los actores, y están influidos por agentes de la institución educativa y familiar. En ese marco los jóvenes van configurando unas expectativas de futuro. Estas expectativas se debaten entre tres vías: salidas a espacios laborales poco cualificados y precarios, aunque …

Water absorption and hydrothermal ageing of epoxy adhesives reinforced with amino-functionalized graphene oxide nanoparticles
2021
Abstract The study is focused on quantitative characterization of water absorption and hydrothermal ageing effects in a room-temperature amine cured epoxy adhesive widely used in automotive, aerospace, construction, and marine industries. Amino-functionalized graphene oxide (mGO) nanoparticles were incorporated into the epoxy (up to 1.72 wt.%) enabled cross-linking reactions and providing high interfacial adhesion, superior reinforcement efficiency and enhanced resistance to hydrothermal ageing of nanocomposites. Anomalous water absorption accompanied by progressive weight loss of samples (down to 7%) is fitted by two-stage models considering additive and coupled contribution from water dif…
Vibrational analysis of Ni(II)- and Cu(II)-octamethylchlorin by polarized resonance Raman and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
2001
We measured the polarized resonance Raman spectra of Cu(II)-2,2,7,8,12,13,17,18-octamethylchlorin in CS2 at various excitation wavenumbers in a spectral region covering the Qy, Qx and Bx optical absorption bands. Additionally, we measured the FTIR-Raman spectrum of the highly overcrowded spectral region between 1300 and 1450 cm−1. The spectral decomposition was carried out by a self-consistent global fit to all spectra obtained. The thus identified Raman and IR lines were assigned by comparison with the resonance Raman spectra of Cu(II)-octaethylporphyrin, by utilizing their depolarization ratio dispersions and by a normal mode analysis. The latter was based on a modified transferable molec…
Electronic structure of p-type ultraviolet-transparent conducting CuScO2 films
2008
Abstract We investigate the electronic structure of CuScO 2 thin films grown on sapphire and mica substrates by pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction and microanalysis confirm that the films have the expected delafossite crystal structure and stoichiometric proportions. The electronic structure is investigated by means of X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. Electronic states in the range 0–1350 eV are identified, making reference to theoretical density-of-states calculations up to 80 eV. Photoelectron spectra near the Fermi energy confirm the p-character of the films. Optical absorption spectroscopy shows that the films are transparent up to 3.7 eV and exhibit an intense …
<title>Influence of radiation defects on exciton-magnon interactions in nickel oxide</title>
2005
Influence of radiation defects on the optical absorption spectrum of nickel oxide (NiO) was studied at 6 K in the near-IR energy range of 7750-8300 cm-1 corresponding to the magnetic-dipole transition 3A 2g(F )->3T 2g(F ) at nickel sites. NiO single crystals grown by the method of chemical transport reactions on the MgO(100) substrates were irradiated by the neutron fluences up to 5x1018 cm-2. Two sharp lines were observed at the low-energy side of the band: the peak at 7805 cm-1 is assigned to the pure exciton transition, whereas the peak at 7845 cm-1, to the exciton-magnon excitation that occurs at the Brillouin zone-center (BZC). An increase of the defect concentration at higher fluences…
Absorption spectrum of the and electronic transitions of ReF6
1999
Abstract The absorption spectra of the near-infrared and ultraviolet bands of ReF6 have been recorded with a commercial spectrophotometer. The vibronic assignments previously published by different authors are critically revised. A non-perturbative method has been used to calculate the linear Jahn–Teller levels for the ν5 mode in the ground electronic state. Some new vibronic parameter values are derived. The ν5 linear Jahn–Teller parameter in the X G′ g electronic state is found to be D5=0.103(9). The ultraviolet absorption spectrum has enabled us to determine relatively accurate values of the crystal-field (10Dq) and spin-orbit (ζd) parameters.
Renewable polyol obtained by microwave-assisted alcoholysis of epoxidized soybean oil: Preparation, thermal properties and relaxation process
2019
[EN] The soybean oil polyol (SOP) use as feedstock in the polyurethane industry has been recently emphasized due to its excellent resistance to hydrolysis, which is also applicable in coatings and thermal insulation. In this article, the SOP was obtained by a very fast microwave-assisted alcoholysis of epoxidized soybean oil (ESO). The preparation method, thermal properties, and relaxation process were evaluated. High yields as opening and consumption epoxy group and selectivity of 99.8 mol%, 985 mol%, and 71.2 mol% were obtained. Through titrations, nuclear magnetic resonance and gel permeation chromatography were identified parameters as 0.32 mg KOH.g(-1) acid number, 190 mg KOH.g(-1) hyd…
