In the presence of the aqueous solution of ammonia, tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was hydrolyzed in the mixture of ethyl alcohol and water with the results of silica spacers. The spacer morphology and size distribution of the synthesized silica spacers were characterized with scanning electron microcopy and laser light scattering spectroscopy, respectively. Our results demonstrated that the synthesized silica spacers were monodispersed and were in perfect spherical shape with their sizes of about 0.7 m in diameter. The correlation between the spacer sizes and the amount of ammonia catalyst was examined, and the spacer sizes of the silica spacers strongly depended on the temperature of chemical reaction and the amount of catalyst. The diameter of silica spacers could be well controlled by controlling the amount of ammonia catalyst, and uniformly distributed silica spacers were produced. Behavior of the miscibility of the silica spacers with a nematic liquid crystal was examined.

AbstractSophisticated non-mechanical technology for LIDARs is needed to realize safe autonomous cars. We have confirmed the operating principle of a non-mechanical LIDAR by combining concentric circular-grating couplers (CGCs) with a coaxially aligned rod lens. Laser light incident vertically on the center of the inner CGC along the center axis of the lens is radiated from the outer CGC and passes through the side surface of the lens. It is converted to a parallel beam that scans in two axes by applying voltages to two area-segmented electrode layers sandwiching the CGCs and a liquid crystal layer formed on the CGCs. We have demonstrated scanning whose motion ranges were 360 degrees horizontally and 10° vertically. A beam with a spread angle of 0.3° × 0.8° at a minimum swept vertically up to a frequency of 100 Hz and ten equally spaced beams scanned rotationally with a 6-degree cycle variation of spread of between 0.8° and 3.5°.

Results of 3D numerical simulations of the gas transfer in close binary systems show that it is possible the production of accretion streams having low specific angular momentum in a region close to the accreting star. These streams are mainly placed above the orbital disc. The eventual formation of such bulges and shock heated flows is interesting in the context of advection dominated solutions and for the explanation of spectral properties of the Black Hole candidates in binary systems. We set up a parallelized version of 3D S.P.H. code, using domain decomposion. with increasing spatial resolution around the compact star.
