چکیده

Abstract: We compute the effective medium properties for Kerr-type metallodielectric composites of interacting spheres and isolated spheroids. We show the nonlinear index enhancement increases significantly faster than the linear absorption as particles interact or become elongated. ©2008 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (050.2065) Effective medium theory, (160.1245) Artificially engineered materials

Large omnidirectional band gaps in metallodielectric photonic crystals.

Using a finite-difference time-domain method, we study the band-structure and transmission properties of three-dimensional metallodielectric photonic crystals. The metallodielectric crystals are modeled as perfect electrical conducting objects embedded in dielectric media. We investigate two different lattice geometries: the face-centered-cubic ~fcc! lattice and the diamond lattice. Partial gap...

Creep Stress Redistribution Analysis of Thick-Walled FGM Spheres

Time-dependent creep stress redistribution analysis of thick-walled FGM spheres subjected to an internal pressure and a uniform temperature field is investigated. The material creep and mechanical properties through the radial graded direction are assumed to obey the simple power-law variation throughout the thickness. Total strains are assumed to be the sum of elastic, thermal and creep strain...

Tensile and Physical Properties of Linear Low Density Polyethylene-natural Rubber Composite: Comparison between Size and Filler Types

Linear Low Density Polyethylene-Natural Rubber (LLDPE-NR) composites in the ratio of 70:20 were made with different loadings of nanosilica and micro-scale Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA). Linear Low Density Polyethylene grafted with maleic anhydride (LLDPE-g-MAH) of 10 wt% was added as a compatibiliser. The composites were produced by using two-roll mill machine. The tensile properties of the composit...

Linear and nonlinear optical properties of a modified Gaussian quantum dot: pressure, temperature and impurity effect

In this paper, the effect of pressure, temperature and impurity on the energylevels, binding energy, linear and nonlinear optical properties of a modified Gaussianquantum dot are studied. In this regard, the finite element method is employed to solvethe single electron Schrodinger equation in the effective mass approximation with andwithout impurity at the center of the dot. In addition, the en...
