Wideband THz time domain spectroscopy based on optical rectification and electro-optic sampling
2013
We present an analytical model describing the full electromagnetic propagation in a THz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) system, from the THz pulses via Optical Rectification to the detection via Electro Optic-Sampling. While several investigations deal singularly with the many elements that constitute a THz-TDS, in our work we pay particular attention to the modelling of the time-frequency behaviour of all the stages which compose the experimental set-up. Therefore, our model considers the following main aspects: (i) pump beam focusing into the generation crystal; (ii) phase-matching inside both the generation and detection crystals; (iii) chromatic dispersion and absorption inside the c…
<title>Coumarin fluorescent probes by electro-optical and laser spectrofluorimetry methods</title>
1997
Modified electro-optical absorption and emission methods were used to measure the dipole moments of six coumarin fluorescent probes (CU1, CU4, CU7, CU30, CU120, CU334) in the equilibrated ground, excited Franck-Condon and equilibrated excited states. The measurements were performed in cyclohexane and dioxane at room temperature. The equilibrated ground and excited states dipole measured by electro-optical methods are compared with those derived from other measurements techniques and from semiempirical calculations. Experiments and calculations performed in this work reveal a set of anomalous and interesting properties of CU7 and CU30 in solutions. The spectral dependence of some electro-opt…
Elongated push–pull diphenylpolyenes for nonlinear optics: molecular engineering of quadratic and cubic optical nonlinearities via tuning of intramol…
1999
Abstract Push–pull polyenes are of particular interest for nonlinear optics (NLO) as well as model compounds for long-distance intramolecular charge transfer (ICT). In order to tune the ICT phenomenon and control the linear and nonlinear optical properties, we have synthesized and investigated several series of soluble push–pull diphenylpolyenes of increasing length and having various donor (D) and acceptor (A) end groups. Their linear and NLO properties have been studied by performing electro-optical absorption measurements (EOAM) and third-harmonic generation (THG) experiments in solution. Each push–pull molecule exhibits an intense ICT absorption band in the visible characterized by an i…
Ab initio calculations for the far infrared collision induced absorption by N2 gas
2014
We present (far-infrared) Collision Induced Absorption (CIA) spectra calculations for pure gaseous N2 made for the first time, from first-principles. They were carried out using classical molecular dynamics simulations based on ab initio predictions of both the intermolecular potential and the induced-dipole moment. These calculations reproduce satisfactory well the experimental values (intensity and band profile) with agreement within 3% at 149 K. With respect to results obtained with only the long range (asymptotic) dipole moment (DM), including the short range overlap contribution improves the band intensity and profile at 149 K, but it deteriorates them at 296 K. The results show that t…
<title>Electro-optical and fluorescence lifetime studies of aminophthalimide probes in liquids</title>
1995
The modified electro-optical absorption and emission methods are described as well as their use for measurements of electrical dipole moments of five aminophthalimides in ground and excited states. It is found that there exists a principal difference between properties of 3- aminophthalimide (3AP) and 4-amino-N-methylphthalimide (4ANMP) in different solvents. The equilibrated dipole moment of 3AP in its excited state is practically independent on the solvent polarity, in comparison with 4ANMP. The possible mechanism of this effect is discussed.© (1995) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering. Downloading of the abstract is permitted for personal use only.
Wavelet-based efficient simulation of electromagnetic transients in a lightning protection system
2003
In this paper, a wavelet-based efficient simulation of electromagnetic transients in a lightning protection systems (LPS) is presented. The analysis of electromagnetic transients is carried out by employing the thin-wire electric field integral equation in frequency domain. In order to easily handle the boundary conditions of the integral equation, semiorthogonal compactly supported spline wavelets, constructed for the bounded interval [0,1], have been taken into account in expanding the unknown longitudinal currents. The integral equation is then solved by means of the Galerkin method. As a preprocessing stage, a discrete wavelet transform is used in order to efficiently compress the Fouri…
A general procedure for the construction of Gorges polygons for multi-phase windings of electrical machines
2018
This paper presents a simple and effective procedure for the determination of the Gorges polygon, suitable for all possible winding configurations in electrical machines. This methodology takes into account the determination of a Winding Distribution Table (WDT), in which all the information about the distribution of the currents along the stator periphery is computed and from which the Görges polygon are easily derived. The proposed method can be applied to both symmetrical and asymmetrical multi-phase windings, including concentrated, fractional, reduced and dead-coil ones. The examples provided in this paper demonstrate the versatility of the proposed method.

Drift Time Measurement in the ATLAS Liquid Argon Electromagnetic Calorimeter using Cosmic Muons
2010
The ionization signals in the liquid argon of the ATLAS electromagnetic calorimeter are studied in detail using cosmic muons. In particular, the drift time of the ionization electrons is measured and used to assess the intrinsic uniformity of the calorimeter gaps and estimate its impact on the constant term of the energy resolution. The drift times of electrons in the cells of the second layer of the calorimeter are uniform at the level of 1.3% in the barrel and 2.8% in the endcaps. This leads to an estimated contribution to the constant term of (0.29-0.04+0.05)% in the barrel and (0.54-0.04+0.06)% in the endcaps. The same data are used to measure the drift velocity of ionization electrons …
Ground and excited state dipole moments of coumarin laser dyes: Investigation by electro-optical absorption and emission methods
1997
Abstract Modified electro-optical absorption and emission methods were used to measure the dipole moments of four efficient coumarin laser dyes (CU1, CU4, CU120, CU334) in the equilibrated ground, excited Franck-Condon and equilibrated excited states. The measurements were performed in cyclohexane (CU1, CU120, CU334) and dioxane (all CUs) at room temperature. Our results show that the charge distribution in CU4 differs substantially from that in the other CUs. The equilibrated ground and excited state dipole moments measured by electro-optical methods are compared with those derived from other measurement techniques and from semiempirical calculations. The possible role of twisted intermole…
