Temperature Tunability of Dielectric/ Liquid Crystal / Dielectric Photonic Crystal Structures
Recently, photonic crystals doped with liquid crystal (LC) material havegained much research interest. In this article new ternary one-dimensional photoniccrystal introduced and studied. The liquid crystal layer of 5CB and 5PCH is sandwichedby two dielectric layers. For the first time, we use four structures SiO2/UCF35/CaF2,SiO2/5CB/CaF2, NFK51/UCF35/NPSK53 and NFK51/5CB/NPSK53. The effect ofte...
متن کاملB1-to-B2 structural transitions in rock salt intergrowth structures.
The rock salt (B1) structure of binary oxides or chalcogenides transforms to the CsCl (B2) structure under high pressure, with critical pressures P(s) depending on the cation to anion size ratio (R(c)/R(a)). We investigated structural changes of A(2)MO(3) (A = Sr, Ca; M = Cu, Pd) comprising alternate 7-fold B1 AO blocks and corner-shared MO(2) square-planar chains under pressure. All of the exa...
متن کاملCu- and Mn-bearing tourmalines from Brazil and Mozambique: crystal structures, chemistry and correlations
Cu- and Mn-bearing tourmalines from Brazil and Mozambique were characterised chemically (EMPA and LA-ICP-MS) and by X-ray single-crystal structure refinement. All these samples are rich in Al, Li and F (fluor-elbaite) and contain significant amounts of CuO (up to ~1.8 wt%) and MnO (up to ~3.5 wt%). Structurally investigated samples show a pronounced positive correlation between the distan...
متن کاملOn optimizing crash energy and load-bearing capacity in cellular structures
The energy absorption and load-bearing capacity under axial compression of some model cellular structures are studied with an eye toward optimization based on structural mass or volume available for deformation. Three configurations are considered: multilayer, multi-cell and multi-tube, all of a rectangular-cell topology. Loading is applied either parallel or normal to the cell axis. The cell’s...
متن کاملPaws , pads and plants : the enhanced elasticity of cell - filled load - bearing structures
Paws, fat pads and plants share a remarkable structure made up of closed cells with elastic cell walls capable of supporting large loads and deformations. A key challenge is to understand how the function of these structures is enhanced by their geometric and material design. To do so, we compare different elastic models operating in large strain deformation when the cells are empty or filled w...
