Influence of nanoscale order–disorder transitions on the magnetic properties of Heusler compounds for spintronics
2017
Modifications in nanoscale chemical order are used to tune the magnetic properties, namely T-C, of Co2FeSixAl1-x (0 < x < 1). High-angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) with Z-contrast reveals nanoscale regions of L2(1) order within a B2 matrix in the off-stoichiometry samples. Perhaps surprisingly, the latter, more chemically disordered structure, exhibits a higher T-C. Upon annealing, the off-stoichiometry samples become more homogeneous with the fraction of L2(1) order decreasing. The short-range order was also investigated using X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) measurements at the Co and Fe K edges. Since the local atomic environments of C…
Supramolecular Order of Solution-Processed Perylenediimide Thin Films
2011
N,N ′ -1 H ,1 H -perfl uorobutyl dicyanoperylenecarboxydiimide (PDIF-CN 2 ), a soluble and air stable n-type molecule, undergoes signifi cant reorganization upon thermal annealing after solution deposition on several substrates with different surface energies. Interestingly, this system exhibits an exceptional edge-on orientation regardless of the substrate chemistry. This preferential orientation is rationalized in terms of strong intermolecular interactions between the PDIF-CN 2 molecules. The presence of a pronounced π– π stacking is confi rmed by combining near-edge X-ray absorption fi ne structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS), dynamic scanning force microscopy (SFM) and surface energy measure…
Sol-gel assisted molten-salt synthesis of novel single phase Y3–2xCa2xTaxAl5−xO12:1%Eu garnet structure phosphors
2022
Strong absorption and emission are the key the features of any phosphor. The results obtained during this study demonstrate the difficulty of the incorporation of tantalum ions into the garnet structure and reveal that only the combination of Sol-Gel synthesis method together with Molten-Salt technique enable to obtain a single-phase cubic garnet structure. Note that, the Sol-Gel synthesis assisted by further processing by Molten-Salt technique can be a potentially new way of material preparation reported in literature. This work also proves that this combination of synthesis methods is much more capable of incorporating ions with large ionic radii into the garnet structure as compared to t…
Stable two -dimensional spatial solitons in heavy metal oxide glasses
2007
In this Communication, a stable self-confined propagation with ps near-infrared (NIR) pulses and over several Rayleigh lengths is demonstrated for the first time . Multiphoton absorption is shown to saturate the self-focusing response in a novel glass of the ternary system Nb2O5-O2-PbO (NPG) exhibiting a high refractive index (2-2.1) in the NIR and an energy gap of 3.52 eV. NPG belongs to the family of heavy metal oxides, widely studied for its fast and high nonlinearity in the infrared.
High-efficiency fullerene free ternary organic solar cells based with two small molecules as donor
2021
Abstract Herein, we have designed a ternary system comprising of two small molecules (B2 and B3), as donor and a narrow bandgap non-fullerene small molecule acceptor Y6. The chemical structures of B2 and B3 are close to each other but their absorption spectra are complementary with different energy levels. Using these small-molecules, a ternary organic solar cell was fabricated. The presence of B2 in the B3:Y6 blend increases the photon harvesting as well as also forms cascade energy level arrangement which benefits assisting the balancing between the dissociation of excitons into free charge carriers and their subsequent charge transfer between the two donors (B2 and B3) and the acceptor (…
Transmission Attenuation Power Ratio Analysis of Flexible Electromagnetic Absorber Sheets Combined with a Metal Layer.
2018
Electromagnetic noise absorber sheets have become a solution for solving complex electromagnetic interference (EMI) problems due to their high magnetic losses. This contribution is focused on characterizing a novel structure that is based on an absorber film with a metal layer attached on its top side. Two different absorber compositions were combined with Al and Cu metal layers in order to study the improvement on the performance of these structures, depending on the complex permeability, absorber film thickness, and type of metal. The transmission attenuation power ratio of the absorber films is analyzed and compared to the performance of absorber and metal structures. The measurement pro…
High-temperature emission spectroscopy of methane
2008
International audience; A high-enthalpy source (HES) has been developed in Rennes either to heat gases up to 2000K in local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) or to generate hypersonic expansions. The HES prototype has been associated with a high-resolution Bruker IFS 120 HR Fourier transform spectrometer to record emission spectra of hot gases, in LTE conditions. A series of emission spectra of methane has been obtained at 1005, 1365, 1485, 1625 and 1820K in the pentad spectral region located around 3000 cm1, at Doppler-limited resolution (0.02 cm1). Spectra have been corrected for the transmission function that strongly affects the infrared radiation emitted by the hot gas. Line-integrated a…
Dynamic control of the operation regimes of a mode-locked fiber laser based on intracavity polarizing fibers: experimental and theoretical validation.
2012
[EN] An intracavity polarizing fiber is proposed to control the emission regime of a passively mode-locked fiber laser. Stable operation in self-starting high and low dispersion soliton mode-locking and 100 GHz multiwavelength regimes is demonstrated through numerical simulations and experimental validation. Mode-locking stability is ensured by a saturable absorber in the ring cavity. The effective selection of operation regime is dynamically carried out by controlling the intracavity polarization state.
Measurement of the transition dipole moment of silane 28SiH4 by diode laser spectroscopy
1992
Abstract A tunable diode laser IR spectrometer which is being used in various molecular spectroscopy experiments is described. Absorption spectra observed in the ( ν 1 , ν 3 ) dyad of silane 28 SiH 4 yield estimates of two parameters of the dipole moment operator responsible for absorbance in this region.
Oscillator strengths of sulphur 3s23p34s3So-3s23p34p3P transitions measured by time resolved two-photon laser spectroscopy
1997
Oscillator strengths for the three 3s23p34s 3S1o-3s23p34p 3P0,1,2 transitions in neutral sulphur have been determined directly from lifetime measurements. Two-photon UV laser excitation and subsequent fluorescence detection have been used on atoms produced in a thermal sulphur beam or in a laser-driven plasma. A good agreement was found between data obtained in both schemes. The lifetime data obtained, τ(3P0) = 46.1(1.0) ns, τ(3P1) = 46.1(1.0) ns and τ(3P2) = 46.1(1.0) ns are compared with results of theoretical and experimental data from literature. The absorption oscillator strengths derived are f(3S1o-3P0) = 0.120(0.003), f(3S1o-3P1) = 0.360(0.008) and f(3S1o-3P2) = 0.600(0.013), respect…
