Photopatterning hybrid sol–gel glass materials prepared from ethylene tellurate and alkoxysilane
(Elsevier: Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids, 2005-09-01)
Photopatterning of sol–gels is a versatile technique that has been used to prepare optical components and devices of silica and titania. Telluria (TeO2) has a higher third-order non-linearity than silica and titania and ...
BIMA millimeter-wave observations of the core-jet and molecular gas in the FR I radio galaxy NGC 3801
(Astrophysical Journal, 2005-08-20)
We present BIMA 3 mm observations of the radio continuum source and the
molecular gas disk in the radio loud Fanaroff & Riley Type I (FR I) galaxy NGC
3801. We have detected a continuum source in the nucleus and determined ...
The Nazarov cyclization in organic synthesis. Recent advances
(Elsevier Science B.V., 2005-08-08)
Recent synthetic advancements involving the Nazarov electrocyclization are reviewed. Aspects of reactivity and stereochemistry are discussed, as well as the continuing development of the methodology for application to ...
Investigation of the electronic structure of carbon single wall nanotube hybrid nanostructures
(Plasmonic Nano-imaging and Nanofabrication: Proceedings of the SPIE, 2005-08-03)
The effects of protonation on the structure of the carbon single-walled nanotube (SWNT) polymer composites were studied by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques and Raman spectroscopy. In addition, ...
Star formation in hosts of young radio galaxies
(QSO Hosts: Evolution and Environment, 2005-08)
We present near ultraviolet imaging with the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys, targeting
young radio galaxies (Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum and Compact Steep Spectrum sources), in search of star
formation ...
Air bubble-induced light-scattering effect on image quality in 193 nm immersion lithography
(Optical Society of America, 2005-07-01)
As an emerging technique, water immersion lithography, offers the capability of reducing critical dimensions
by increasing the numerical aperture that is due to the higher refractive indices of immersion
liquids than ...
Spectrally opponent inputs to the human luminance pathway: slow +M and −L cone inputs revealed by intense long-wavelength adaptation
(The Physiological Society, 2005-07-01)
The nature of the inputs to achromatic luminance flicker perception was explored psychophysically by measuring middle- (M-) and long-wavelength-sensitive (L-) cone modulation sensitivities, M- and L-cone phase delays, and ...
Interaction of supermassive black holes with their stellar and dark matter environments
(Springer, 2005-06-22)
While supermassive black holes probably gained most of their mass via accretion
of gas, the galactic nuclei in which they are currently situated are dominated
by stars. This article reviews recent theoretical work on the ...
Band selection in an amplified spontaneous emission source using the backward-feedback technique
(Wiley, 2005-06)
In this paper, the band-selective behavior in an amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) source of an erbium-doped silica fiber (EDF) is demonstrated. C-band operation is obtained without backward ASE feedback, whereas L-band ...
Fire temperature retrieval using constrained spectral unmixing and emissivity estimation
(The International Society for Optical Engineering (SPIE), 2005-06)
Accurate retrieval of wildland fire temperature from remote imagery would be useful in improving prediction of
fire propagation and estimates of fire effects such as burn severity and gas and particle production. The ...
