ABSTRACTThe scattering of the dominant transverse electric mode in an infinite perfectly conducting rectangular wave-guide by a semi-infinite resistive strip, centrally placed and parallel to the electric field, is calculated by the use of Laplace transforms. Formulae are derived for the amplitude of the scattered waves, and the numerical results, obtained using a digital computer, are given for various values of the surface resistivity of the strip.

Background. Timely pulmonary function testing is crucial to improving diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary diseases. Perceptions of poor access at an academic pulmonary function laboratory prompted analysis of system demand and capacity to identify factors contributing to poor access.Methods. Surveys and interviews identified stakeholder perspectives on operational processes and access challenges. Retrospective data on testing demand and resource capacity was analyzed to understand utilization of testing resources.Results. Qualitative analysis demonstrated that stakeholder groups had discrepant views on access and capacity in the laboratory. Mean daily resource utilization was 0.64 (SD 0.15), with monthly average utilization consistently less than 0.75. Reserved testing slots for subspecialty clinics were poorly utilized, leaving many testing slots unfilled. When subspecialty demand exceeded number of reserved slots, there was sufficient capacity in the pulmonary function schedule to accommodate added demand. Findings were shared with stakeholders and influenced scheduling process improvements.Conclusion. This study highlights the importance of operational data to identify causes of poor access, guide system decision-making, and determine effects of improvement initiatives in a variety of healthcare settings. Importantly, simple operational analysis can help to improve efficiency of health systems with little or no added financial investment.

We investigate the wavelength and threshold current variation with passive wave-guide length in inhomogeneously pumped single and double quantum well InGaAs/AlGaAs strained layer ridge wave-guide lasers. We observe a linear and extremely low increase in threshold current with unpumped length, both for single and double quantum well lasers. A large red shift in the lasing wavelength as the unpumped length is increased is also observed. We present a model, based on absorption saturation in the unpumped section, which describes both the wavelength shift and the threshold current variation. The increase in threshold current that we observe is much smaller than results reported in the literature for GaAs/AlGaAs lasers, where a large exponential dependence was attributed to gain saturation in the pumped section. Because the threshold current does not dramatically vary with unpumped length for our lasers, this is a potentially useful technique for shifting the output wavelength of the laser. Finally, we investigate the wavelength tuning behavior of lasers having two segments pumped with different currents. A wavelength tunability of ~13 nm for the DQW laser was observed.

In this paper, feasibility of aluminium deposition on inner wall of pipes by atomic layer deposition was studied. Firstly, by solving kinetics equation of gas adsorption on the pipe inner wall, the time for the reactant to reach saturated adsorption on the wall was calculated. Secondly, according to the aluminium crystal structure, the thickness of each deposition cycle was obtained. Finally, the minimum aluminium thickness and number of atomic layer deposition cycles that can meet electromagnetic requirement of wave guide was calculated.
