    Notes: The pressure-induced wavelength shift of a laser-excited fluorescence in samarium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Sm:YAG) was compared with that of ruby to 26 GPa at room temperature. Because the fluorescence wavelength for Sm:YAG has a negligible temperature dependence, it provides a better pressure scale for diamond anvil cell applications than ruby under high-temperature conditions. However, the overall intensity of the Sm:YAG fluorescence is less than that for ruby. A Gaussian–Lorentzian profile was chosen to analyze the fluorescence spectra. The Sm:YAG fluorescence wavelength exhibits an approximately linear pressure dependence (3.07±0.45 A(ring)/GPa) only to 20 GPa at room temperature. A polynomial fit for all data to 26 GPa gives P(GPa)=−10 280(λ/λ0−1)2 +2085(λ/λ0−1), with a rms misfit of 0.14 GPa.〈squeeze〉

    Notes: The jet from a nominally axisymmetric shaped charge is formed by the collapse of the typically conical liner under the high pressures resulting from detonation of the explosive around it. Where asymmetries are present the velocities imparted to the elements of the liner at a given axial distance from the cone tip will vary as a function of the azimuthal angle among other variables. In general these elements will not meet at all. Conversely a pair of liner elements that do meet will in general have started from different axial positions, and will meet away from the nominal axis of symmetry of the charge. This effect renders the formation process asymmetrical. Consequently the jet particles have an off-axis velocity component which can substantially degrade the penetrative capability of the charge. A complete analysis of asymmetrical liner collapse and jet formation is presented for the case where the liner is axisymmetric, but there is an azimuthal variation in liner projection velocity. The classical analysis of symmetric liner collapse and jet formation is extended to include this type of asymmetry. Earlier work on linear shaped charges, particularly a model for asymmetric jet formation, is drawn upon to consider plane sections of the liner individually. A fully three-dimensional analysis is then achieved by the combination of the results for these sections. This analysis is implemented in a computational model and example results are presented and compared in as far as is possible and meaningful with previous theoretical and experimental results. Good agreement with the previous theoretical work is obtained, and the values of the off-axis velocity components predicted are of the orders observed in the limited experimental data as yet available.

    Notes: Using a free-jet expansion which incorporates a heated nozzle, we have recorded the laser excitation spectrum of the 460 nm band system of NiCl2 at a rotational temperature of ∼40 K. 35Cl/37Cl isotope shifts were resolved which permit the assignment of progressions involving the symmetric stretching vibrational mode and identify a triplet splitting with spacings of 96 and 149 cm−1 which is believed to be due to spin–orbit coupling. Sequence bands involving the bending vibrational mode are also tentatively assigned. Only a small change in the symmetric stretching vibrational wave number is found between the electronic states involved in this transition (ν˜'1 =356 cm−1, ν˜″1 =360 cm−1). This result and the triplet splitting observed are discussed with respect to the possible electronic states involved and the assignment of this band system as either a Laporte forbidden g↔g transition involving the d orbitals on the Ni atom or an allowed u↔g charge transfer transition.

    Notes: We report detailed molecular beam studies of the effects of K adsorption on the dissociative chemisorption probabilities S0 for D2 on Pt(111). In contrast to conventional wisdom for many other molecular systems, we find that K is a very strong poison rather than promoter for H2 dissociation. S0 decreases roughly exponentially with K coverage aitch-thetaK. The effective cross section for poisoning per adsorbed K varies between 70 and 430 A(ring)2, depending upon incident energy Ei. This suggests that an extremely long-range electronic perturbation is responsible for the poisoning. A theoretical model is developed to describe these sticking measurements. It is based on the fact that the adsorbed K lowers the work function of the surface. This enhances Pauli repulsion for the molecule-surface interaction which, in turn, increases the barrier to dissociation. When the model is generalized to include inhomogeneous effects through a local work function, excellent agreement is obtained between the model and experiments. This model also naturally accounts for the increased associative desorption temperatures for H2 when coadsorbed K is present.

    Notes: Molecular beam techniques have been utilized to measure the dissociative chemisorption probability at zero surface coverage S0 for D2(H2) on Pt(111) as a function of initial energy Ei, angle of incidence θi, surface temperature Ts, isotopic mass and nozzle temperature Tn. S0 shows a large increase with translational energy, but no threshold in Ei, a peaking at θi=0°, and an independence with Ts, isotope and Tn. These results are interpreted in terms of direct dissociative chemisorption on the Pt(111) terraces. The dynamical picture that emerges is that although there is no significant barrier to dissociation along the minimum energy path, barriers do exist along nonoptimal reactive trajectories. Thus, the "translational activation'' and other dynamical observations are intimately related to the multidimensional aspects of the dissociative potential energy surface. Some aspects of the dissociative chemisorption, however, still seem somewhat surprising within this general description.

    Notes: A revised pressure scale for NaCl is proposed as an update for the 30-year-old work of Decker. An alternative approach to the analysis is utilized in conjunction with more recent data. The zero-Kelvin compression curve is parameterized using local basis functions (splines) and constrained by accurate pressure-volume-temperature data. Thermal pressures are estimated within a quasiharmonic framework using a volume-dependent Grüneisen parameter and the Debye thermal energy. In the pressure regime extending to 5 GPa uncertainties in pressure (based on measured volumes) are estimated to be less than 1%. Uncertainty increases to 1.5% at 10 GPa and 3% at 25 GPa. The largest contribution to systematic uncertainty at the highest pressures is the lack of knowledge of the volume dependence of the Grüneisen parameter. Misfit of other calculated thermodynamic properties with respect to data is relatively small. On the basis of the current analysis, pressures determined using the older Decker calibration are low. Along the 300 K isotherm, apparent errors in the Decker scale are as large as −3% (−0.3 GPa at 10 GPa, −0.47 GPa near 18 GPa, and −0.37 GPa at 25 GPa). At higher temperatures the apparent errors are smaller. At 1100 K and 20 GPa the error is −0.2 GPa. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We quantify the rates and total amounts of the arsenic for antimony exchange on both the Sb-terminated and Ga (or In)-terminated GaSb (001) surfaces using in situ real time line-of-sight mass spectrometry (LOS-MS) during molecular beam epitaxy. On the Sb-terminated GaSb (001) surface, an As for Sb exchange is observed to occur at all values of incident As2 flux considered. At high substrate temperature, three-dimensional (3D) nanometer-sized clusters from as a consequence of As/Sb exchange and lattice mismatch strain between GaAs and GaSb. The 3D clusters are found to have lateral dimensions of ∼10–30 nm and heights of 1–3 nm by atomic force microscopy (AFM). By contrast, at lower substrate temperatures a two-dimensional surface morphology is maintained, and AFM reveals an array of atomically flat terraces. On the surface terminated by one monolayer (ML) of Ga or In, there exists a critical As2 flux below which the As/Sb exchange is greatly diminished. The net amounts of Sb leaving the surface during one period of InAs/GaSb type-II superlattice growth are measured in real time by LOS-MS and estimated to be in the range of 0–0.4 ML for the various conditions used. By supplying only an As2 beam to a GaSb surface covered by InAs, the Sb riding over the InAs layer is replaced by arsenic and the total amount of such Sb is measured. The amount of Sb riding on the InAs can be as large as 0.8 ML for the first 1 ML of InAs and it gradually decreases to zero as the number of InAs monolayer increases. X-ray diffraction data show that all the InAs/GaSb superlattices coherently match with the GaSb substrate in the growth plane. The average lattice constant along the growth direction reduces with decreasing Sb mole fraction shown by the increased Sb desorption signal. Using the information on As/Sb exchange and Sb riding on the InAs surface, we predict an average lattice constant along the growth direction to be consistent with the measured one to within 2×10−4. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Rigorous mathematical modeling of the process dynamics associated with the construction and filling of density gradient columns is presented in this article. These models incorporate the hydrostatic driving forces for fluid flow, friction losses associated with this flow, and the unsteady-state behavior of the liquid levels in the filling vessels and in the column itself. Four different filling arrangements are considered, corresponding to the density order of the two fluids in the filling vessels and two methods for introducing the fluid of varying density into the column. Time requirements for filling of the column and the resulting calibration curve for liquid density versus height in the gradient column are both obtained as a result of this modeling procedure. Further, extremely important operating guidelines for the final achievement of a linear density gradient in the column, which is normally the desired objective in most laboratory applications, are derived and presented. Conversely, the causes leading to nonlinear gradients are elucidated and quantified. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract: NMDA receptors mediate several important functions in the CNS; however, little is known about the pharmacology, biochemistry, and function of distinct NMDA receptor subtypes in brain tissue. To facilitate the study of native NMDA receptor subpopulations, we have determined the radioligand binding properties of [3H]homoquinolinate, a potential subtype-selective ligand. Using quantitative receptor autoradiography, NMDA-specific [3H]homoquinolinate binding selectively labeled brain regions expressing NR2B mRNA (layers I–III of cerebral cortex, striatum, hippocampus, and septum). NMDA-specific [3H]homoquinolinate binding was low in brain regions that express NR2C and NR2D mRNA (cerebellar granular cell layer, NR2C; glomerular layer of olfactory bulb, NR2C/NR2D; and midline thalamic nuclei, NR2D). In forebrain, the pattern of NMDA-specific [3H]homoquinolinate binding paralleled NR2B and not NR2A distribution. In addition to NMDA-displaceable binding, there was a subpopulation of [3H]homoquinolinate binding sites in the forebrain, cerebellum, and choroid plexus that was not displaced by NMDA or l-glutamate. In contrast, we found that the derivative of homoquinolinate, 2-carboxy-3-carboxymethylquinoline, markedly inhibited the NMDA-insensitive binding of [3H]homoquinolinate without inhibiting the NMDA-sensitive population. [3H]Homoquinolinate may be useful for selectively characterizing NR2B-containing NMDA receptors in a preparation containing multiple receptor subtypes and for characterizing a novel binding site of unknown function.
