Purpose: This work focused on the investigation the hyperthermia performance of the carbon-coated magnetic particles (CCMPs) in laser-induced hyperthermia. Materials and methods: We prepared CCMPs using the organic carbonization method, and then characterized them with transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry, vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). In order to evaluate their performance in hyperthermia, the CCMPs were tested in laser-induced thermal therapy (LITT) experiments, in which we employed a fully distributed fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor to profile the tissue's dynamic temperature change under laser irradiation in real time. Results: The sizes of prepared CCMPs were about several micrometers, and the LITT results show that the tissue injected with the CCMPs absorbed more laser energy, and its temperature increased faster than the contrast tissue without CCMPs. Conclusions: The CCMPs may be of great help in hyperthermia applications.

Introduction: Ceramic brackets have gained increasing popularity among dental clinicians and orthodontic patients but friction is a major concern when using them. This study sought to assess the effects of diode and Nd:YAG (neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet) laser irradiation on friction forces between two types of ceramic brackets and rhodium-coated esthetic archwires. Methods: Thirty polycrystalline and 30 poly-sapphire brackets were divided into 6 groups (n=10) as follows: (I) control polycrystalline brackets (no laser irradiation), (II) polycrystalline brackets subjected to diode laser irradiation, (III) polycrystalline brackets subjected to Nd:YAG laser irradiation, (IV) control poly-sapphire brackets (no laser irradiation), (V) poly-sapphire brackets subjected to diode laser irradiation, and (VI) poly-sapphire brackets subjected to Nd:YAG laser irradiation. The bracket slots were laser-irradiated on a custom-made table. Sixty 5-cm pieces of rhodium-coated archwires were used for the friction test in a universal testing machine at a speed of 10 mm/min. Ten brackets from the six groups underwent scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Results: The frictional resistance value of polycrystalline brackets was significantly higher than that of poly-sapphire brackets, irrespective of laser type (P<0.05). Irradiation of diode and Nd:YAG lasers, compared with the control group, had no significant effect on friction, irrespective of bracket type (P>0.05). Conclusion: It appears that diode and Nd:YAG laser irradiation cannot significantly decrease the friction. Future studies are warranted on different laser types with variable exposure.

Deposits of nitrides and oxides of Al and Ti have been produced by laser irradiation of Al and Ti targets in air, N2, and NH3 + N2 gases. Microstructure and constituent phases in these deposits have been examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and x-ray diffractometry (XRD). The distribution of metalloid elements has been investigated by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS). On the basis of the results of these examinations, the nitride and oxide deposits have been shown to be formed by reactions between ambient gas and metal-melt or metal-vapor which take place during pulse laser irradiation.

ABSTRACTSynchrotron x-ray pulses from the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) have been used to carry out nanosecond resolution measurements of the temperature distrubutions in Ge during UV pulsed-laser irradiation. KrF (249 nm) laser pulses of 25 ns FWHM with an energy density of 0.6 J/cm2 were used. The temperatures were determined from x-ray Bragg profile measurements of thermal expansion induced strain on <111> oriented Ge. The data indicate the presence of a liquid-solid interface near the melting point, and large (1500-4500°C/pm) temperature gradients in the solid; these Ge results are analagous to previous ones for Si. The measured temperature distributions are compared with those obtained from heat flow calculations, and the overheating and undercooling of the interface relative to the equilibrium melting point are discussed.

Polyaniline (PANI) - Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanocomposite were prepared using laser irradiation method. X-ray diffraction results showed that, (PANI/PVA) nanocomposite exhibited amorphous nature of polymer. The electronic transition will be studied using Ultraviolet-Visible spectrometer (UV-Vis). The real part of dielectric constant (έ) and imaginary part (ε") were studied. Also, the relaxation time was calculated.
