ABSTRACTRaman temperature measurements during pulsed laser annealing of Si by Compaan and co-workers are critically examined. It has been shown previously that the Stokes to anti-Stokes ratio depends critically upon the optical properties of silicon as a function of temperature. These dependences, coupled with the large spatial and temporal temperature gradients normally found immediately after the high reflectivity phase, result in large variations in the calculated temperature depending upon the probe laser pulse width and the pulse-to-pulse and spatial variations in the annealing pulse energy density.

The aggregation kinetics of C60 nanoparticles have been investigated over a wide range of monovalent and divalent electrolyte concentrations by employing time-resolved dynamic light scattering (DLS). The results showed that the presence of electrolyte made a dramatic decrease in the surface zeta potential and increase in the particle size. The aggregation kinetics of C60 nanoparticles exhibited reaction-limited and diffusion-limited regimes, which was found to be consistent with the classic Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) theory of colloidal stability. The critical coagulation concentration (CCC) values of C60 nanoparticles were estimated as 321mM Na+, 295mM K+, 9.6mM Ca2+and 6.7mM Mg2+, which were far higher than the electrolyte concentrations in natural water. The enhanced C60 stability in the presence of humic acid was attributable to steric repulsion. Therefore C60 nanoparticles can be relatively stable in typical aquatic environments.

Many industrial and biological phenomena involve the evaporation of liquids in porous media. In drying processes the evaporation of a liquid meniscus from the solid is the key mechanism in the process and its efficiency. After a first steady stage of evaporation the meniscus becomes unsteady and recedes inside the pore. Diffusion of vapour becomes the controlling mechanism for evaporation in a later stage. In this work an experimental investigation is undertaken to study the various stages of evaporation of different liquids in capillary tubes (pores) of various sizes. The analysis of the data obtained from this investigation reveals some interesting behaviours and emphasizes the role played by vapour diffusion in the case of unsteady interface. The preliminary transient regime allowing the thermal field establishment, is followed by the first stage of evaporation is found to be dominated by thermocapillary effects associated with non-uniform evaporation and temperature gradients. The laste stage is a molecular diffusion-limited mode. The liquid volatility and the effect of the size of the tube (ranging from 200 to 900 μm) are also analysed to show the interaction between the various effects at different scales.

The influence of the stable 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl-N-oxyl (TEMPO) nitroxide and its six C4-substituted derivatives, as well as two C3-substituted analogues of 2,2,5,5-tetramethylpyrrolidynyl-N-oxyl (PROXYL) nitroxide on the chosen fluoroquinolone antibiotics (marbofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, danofloxacin, norfloxacin, enrofloxacin, levofloxacin and ofloxacin), has been examined in aqueous solutions by UV absorption as well as steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopies. The mechanism of fluorescence quenching has been specified and proved to be purely dynamic (collisional) for all the studied systems, which was additionally confirmed by temperature dependence experiments. Moreover, the selected quenching parameters—that is, Stern–Volmer quenching constants and bimolecular quenching rate constants—have been determined and explained. The possibility of electron transfer was ruled out, and the quenching was found to be diffusion-limited, being a result of the increase in non-radiative processes. Furthermore, as the chosen nitroxides affected the fluorescence of fluoroquinolone antibiotics in different ways, an influence of the structure and the type of substituents in the molecules of both fluoroquinolones and stable radicals on the quenching efficiency has been determined and discussed. Finally, the impact of the solvent’s polarity on the values of bimolecular quenching rate constants has been explained. The significance of the project comes from many applications of nitroxides in chemistry, biology and industry.

ABSTRACTNear surface temperatures and temperature gradients have been studied in silicon during pulsed laser annealing. The investigation was carried out using nanosecond resolution x-ray diffraction measurements made at the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source. Thermal-induced-strain analyses of these real-time, extended Bragg scattering measurements have shown that the lattice temperature reached the melting point during 15 ns, 1.1–1.5 J/cm2 ruby laser pulses and that the temperature of the liquid-solid interface remained at that temperature throughout the high reflectivity phase, after which time the surface temperature subsided rapidly. The temperature gradients below the liquid-solid interface were found to be in the range of 107°C/cm.

The Theological properties of cell cytoplasm are of importance for a number of intracellular processes including diffusion-limited enzyme reactions, intracellular vesicle trafficking, solute transport and cell motility. A wide range of cytoplasmic viscosities have been reported from fluorescence anisotropy, photobleaching recovery, tracer diffusion and electron spin resonance methods. To examine the viscosity of the fluid space between macromolecules and cytoskeletal structures in intact cells, the time-resolved picosecond motion of small fluorophores was measured. Unlike previous methods, measurements of time-resolved fluorophore motion are not confounded by probe binding to and restriction by intracellular structures.Picosecond anisotropy decay was measured by multi-harmonic phase modulation microfluorimetry. The excitation source was a 9 watt argon laser which was impulse modulated by a Pockel's cell. Light was polarized and focused onto a < 1 μ spot on a fluorescently labelled cell. Emitted light was filtered and detected by a phase sensitive photomultiplier through a rotatable analyzing polarizer. Thirty to forty pairs of differential modulation amplitudes and phase angles were collected in parallel over the frequency range 5 to 250 MHz.
