Fabrication and characterization of vacuum deposited fluorescein thin films
2011
Simple vacuum evaporation technique for deposition of dyes on various solid surfaces has been developed. The method is compatible with conventional solvent-free nanofabrication processing enabling fabrication of nanoscale optoelectronic devices. Thin films of fluorescein were deposited on glass, fluorine-tin-oxide (FTO) coated glass with and without atomically layer deposited (ALD) nanocrystalline 20 nm thick anatase TiO2 coating. Surface topology, absorption and emission spectra of the films depends on their thickness and the material of supporting substrate. On a smooth glass surface the dye initially formes islands before merging into a uniform layer after 5 to 10 monolayers. On FTO cove…
Polarization-Dependent Disappearance of a Resonance Signal -- Indication for Optical Pumping in a Storage Ring?
2021
We report on laser spectroscopic measurements on Li$^+$ ions in the experimental storage ring ESR at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research. Driving the $2s\,^3\!{S}_1\;(F=\frac{3}{2}) \,\leftrightarrow\,2p\,^3\!P_2\;(F=\frac{5}{2}) \leftrightarrow 2s\,^3\!{S}_1\;(F=\frac{5}{2})$ $\Lambda$-transition in $^7$Li$^+$ with two superimposed laser beams it was found that the use of circularly polarized light leads to a disappearance of the resonance structure in the fluorescence signal. This can be explained by optical pumping into a dark state of polarized ions. We present a detailed theoretical analysis of this process that supports the interpretation of optical pumping and demonstrate…
Il contratto collettivo aziendale in una prospettiva comparata. Italia, Francia, Spagna e Stati Uniti a confronto
2014
Sulla scorta del metodo comparato, la tesi analizza le recenti modifiche alla disciplina del contratto collettivo aziendale in Italia, Francia e Spagna, introdotte dalla legge e dagli accordi interconfederali; l'obiettivo è dimostrare un tendenziale avvicinamento degli stati europei analizzati al sistema nord-americano di relazioni industriali, in cui il rapporto di lavoro è regolato non tanto dalla legge o dall'accordo di categoria, ma dal contratto aziendale.Vengono inoltre analizzati i recenti accordi collettivi firmati alla Fiat ed alla Chrysler a partire dal processo di integrazione iniziato nel 2009. According to the comparative method, the thesis analyses the recent changes to the di…

2018
Este análisis situacional de la claridad y calidad de las notas explicativas en los estados financieros bajo IFRS (Obligatory Disclosure), pretende entregar claridad acerca de la calidad de la información entregada en las notas explicativas para 4 normas de Información Contable, claves en la información financiera en los países de la región, que son la NIC 2; Notas referente a Inventarios, NIC 16; Notas referente a Propiedad Planta y Equipos, NIC 37; Notas referente a Provisiones, y NIC 38; Notas referente a Activos Intangibles. Adicionalmente, este trabajo estudia la brecha de expectativas (Expectation Gaps) que existe en la información entregada en las notas de los estados financieros par…
INTEGRAL observations of the peculiar BeX System SAX J2103.5+4545
2004
We present an INTEGRAL data analysis of the X-ray transient \object{SAX J2103.5+4545} during two outbursts detected in December 2002. The INTEGRAL coordinates and error circle agree with the position of the recently proposed optical counterpart. A power-law plus cut-off model provided a good fit to the 4-150 keV spectrum yielding a photon index of 1.0+-0.1, a cut-off energy E_cut=7.6+-2.0 keV and a folding energy E_fold=30.9+-2.5 keV. The X-ray luminosity in the 4-150 keV energy range was found to be 6.0x10^36 erg/s, assuming a distance of 6.5 kpc. This luminosity, together with the derived photon index, indicate that the source is in a bright state. A 354.9$+-0.5 second pulse period is mea…
Effects of post-growth annealing on structural and compositional properties of the Co2Cr0.6Fe0.4Al surface and its relevance for the surface electron…
2009
In this study we investigate the influence of post-growth annealing on different Co2Cr0.6Fe0.4Al samples. We find strong changes in the geometric surface structure as well as in the element specific concentrations during the annealing process. These irreversible changes go in hand with characteristic changes in the electron spin polarization (ESP) at the surface: as observed in Cinchetti et al (2007 J. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. 40 1544), the iron buffered sample shows the largest spin polarization at the Fermi level. The latter remains positive as a consequence of the reduced density of states for the minority carriers due to the predicted minority gap, which can be clearly seen for all samples …
From Biology to Linguistics
2018
If we want to get to the bottom of the definition of ἄρθρον in the Poetics, in my opinion we have to work hard in several directions. First of all, it should be vigorously emphasized that the definitions of σύνδeσμος and ἄρθρον in the Poetics are aimed at the subsequent definition of λόγος [This is very aptly pointed out already in Bywater (1909, p. 270).]. This definition recognizes two types of λόγος: the λόγος that is unitary by itself and the λόγος that is unitary thanks to a connector (Poet. 1457 a 27-30: eἷς δέ ἐστι λόγος διχῶς, ἢ γὰρ ὁ ἐκ πλeιόνων συνδέσμῳ, οἷον ἡ Ἰλιὰς μὲν συνδέσμῳ eἷς, ὁ δὲ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τῷ ἓν σημαίνeιν. See Met. Ζ 4, 1030 a 9, b 5-10; H6, 1045 a 12-14.). Now, if th…
Aeration tank and secondary clarifier as one system. in "Activated Sludge Separation Problems: Theory, Control Measures, Practical Experieces. Eds. R…
2017
Traditionally the activated sludge process is treated as two stage process. The first stage (aeration basin) is described in terms of biological processes while the description of the second stage concentrates on processes of biomass separation and thickening. The modern approach to the activated sludge process looks at both the biological and the separation stage as one system. The aim of this chapter is to explain the interactions between the two parts of the activated sludge system.
Reply to comment on “A MRCI PS and CASSCF study of the ground state MgO dissociation energy”
1993
To compute the dissociation energy of MgO, the relationship among the size of the active space in CASSCF wavefunctions, the computed De and the continuity of ∂E/∂r is studied. Basis set influence is also considered. Finally, it is concluded that the dissociation energy of MgO referred to ground state atoms is 2.32±0.1 eV.
Thermodynamic properties of a liquid–vapor interface in a two-component system
2010
Abstract We report a complete set of thermodynamic properties of the interface layer between liquid and vapor two-component mixtures, using molecular dynamics. The mixtures consist of particles which have identical masses and diameters and interact with a long-range Lennard-Jones spline potential. The potential depths in dimensionless units for like interactions is 1 (for component 1) and 0.8 (for component 2). The surface excess entropy decreases when the temperature increases, so the surface has a negative excess heat capacity. This is a consequence of the fact that the surface tension decreases to zero at the critical point, proportional to ( T C , i − T ) 2 ν . The surface entropy decre…
