Vibronic and vibrational spectra of 2-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-ethylamine (2-FPEA) conformers were measured in a molecular beam by resonant two-photon ionization (R2PI), ultraviolet-ultraviolet hole burning (UV-UV HB) spectroscopy, and ionization-loss stimulated Raman spectroscopy (ILSRS). The measured ILSR spectral signatures in the survey spectra of the amino group region and in the broad spectral r...

We fabricated the black silicon (BS) structures by using nanosecond pulsed laser (ns-laser) in vacuum or in oxygen environment. It is interesting that the enhanced visible emission occurs in the photoluminescence (PL) spectra measured at room temperature and at lower temperature on the BS surface after annealing, in which lasing near 600 nm is observed on the BS surface with Purcell cavity stru...

We study the hydration shell formation of alkali metal ions at a graphite surface. Two-dimensional shell structures are found in the initial stage of hydration, in contrast to the three-dimensional structures in bulk water and clusters. Comparison of vibrational spectra with experiments identifies the shell structures and the thermally induced transition from the first to the second shell. We a...

Several studies have been oriented to develop methodologies for estimating inelastic response of structures; however, the estimation of inelastic seismic response spectra requires complex analyses, in such a way that traditional methods can hardly get an acceptable error. In this paper, an Artificial Neural Network ANN model is presented as an alternative to estimate inelastic response spectra ...

a hydrothermal method for preparation of nano-size zirconia has been studied to optimize the effective parameters (precursor concentration, temperature and time) using response surface methodology (rsm). the synthesized zirconia samples were characterized through x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscope (sem) and transmission electron microscopy (tem) analyses to identify mean nano...

sclerotinia stem rot (ssr), caused by sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is one of the most important diseases of canola (brassica napus) in golestan province, the leading canola producer in iran. in order to assess the yield loss of canola caused by ssr, 80 fields were surveyed in four different regions of the province (gorgan, ali abad, kalaleh and gonbad) during 2006-2007, and ssr intensity was recor...
