The effect of the microstructure on transversely coupled laser light into the core of a photonic crystal fiber is investigated. Computational two-dimensional modeling and direct experimental measurements indicate that there exist angles and positions of the fiber microstructure, relative to a transversely launched laser beam, that preferentially couple laser light into the fiber core. The impli...

Sample of CsAg2I3 was prepared by solid state reaction. Then, microstructure parameters of this sample have been determined using wide angle X-ray scattering WAXS method. As well as, Cell parameters of crystal structure have been refined using CHEKCELL program. This analysis states that the lattice intrinsic strainof the sample is so small and the crystal size is on the order of 559Å. Keywords—...

The effects of melt-pool geometrical parameters on crystal growth and microstructure development during laser surface melting of single-crystal alloys were studied by means of mathematical modeling and experiments. A mathematical model was developed for the three-dimensional (3-D) melt-pool geometry and single-crystalline melt-pool solidification in laser surface melting. The 3-D meltpool geome...

A probabilistic scheme is presented for simulating evolution of polycrystalline microstructures during deformation. Microstructure images are described using a compact descriptor called the nearest–neighbor conditional orientation correlation function, defined as the probability density of occurrence of a crystal orientation at one pixel distance from a known orientation. The neighborhood infor...

Photonic crystal fibers are a new class of optical fibers. Their artificial crystal-like microstructure results in a number of unusual properties. They can guide light not only through a well-known total internal reflection mechanism but using also photonic bandgap effect. In this paper different properties possible to obtain in photonic crystal fibers are reviewed. Fabrication and modeling met...

Eu(3+)-doped mixed rare earth orthophosphates (rare earth = La, Y, Gd) have been prepared by hydrothermal technology, whose crystal phase and microstructure both vary with the molar ratio of the mixed rare earth ions. For La(x)Y(1-x)PO(4): Eu(3+), the ion radius distinction between the La(3+) and Y(3+) is so large that only La(0.9)Y(0.1)PO(4): Eu(3+) shows the pure monoclinic phase. For La(x)Gd...

Chiral discrimination of vapours plays an important role in olfactory perception of biological systems and its realization by artificial sensors has been an intriguing challenge. Here, we report a simple method that tangibly visualizes the chirality of a diverse variety of molecules dissolved from vapours with high sensitivity, by making use of a structural change in a periodic microstructure o...
