    Notes: + :YAG laser (266 nm) is reported. With the assistance of plasma resulting from laser irradiation on a metal target, the fused-quartz substrate is easily etched by the 266-nm laser beam in spite of the fact that the substrate is transparent to this wavelength. In contrast, no ablation takes place without the metal target, but damage is generated on the substrate surface. The ablated region is observed by optical microscopy and scanning probe microscopy (SPM), which reveal a fine grating structure (line spacing of 20 μm) without any severe damage. A series of experiments on the dependence of the ablation rate and the threshold laser fluence on ablation parameters, such as laser fluence, the number of pulses, and the distance between the fused quartz and the metal target is performed. On the basis of the results, three possible mechanisms of direct plasma interaction, plasma heating, and metal film deposition are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract. This paper reports the micromachining of fused quartz and Pyrex glass by laser-induced plasma-assisted ablation (LIPAA) using a conventional nanosecond laser at wavelengths 266 nm, 532 nm, and 1064 nm, respectively. High-quality surface structuring can be achieved at each of these wavelengths. The micrograting formed has periods of 14 μm at 266 nm, 20 μm at 532 nm, and 30 μm at 1064 nm, respectively. The ablation rate using a 266 nm laser is much larger than that at longer wavelengths. The ablation thresholds of laser fluence are 0.7 J/cm2 for 266 nm, 1.5 J/cm2 for 532 nm and 3.7 J/cm2 for 1064 nm, respectively. The 532 nm and 1064 nm lasers enable hole drilling in 0.5 and 2.0-mm thick fused quartz and Pyrex glass substrates of about 0.7–0.8 mm in diameter. However, the less destructive through channel can be only formed in Pyrex glass by using a 532 nm laser.

    Notes: + :YAG laser (532 nm). The plasma generated from a silver (Ag) target by the laser irradiation effectively assists in ablation of the fused quartz substrate by the same laser beam, although the laser beam is transparent to the substrate. A grating with a cross-sectional shape like a square-wave (period ≈ 20 μm) is achieved using the mask projection technique. The ablation rate reaches several tens nm/pulse. In addition, LIPAA is applied to high-speed hole drilling (700 μm in diameter) of fused-quartz (0.5 mm thick) and Pyrex glass (0.5 mm thick).

    Notes: Abstract. A new technique of dual-beam laser ablation of fused silica by multiwavelength excitation process using a 248-nm KrF excimer laser (ablation beam) coupled with a 157-nm F2 laser (excitation beam) in dry nitrogen atmosphere is reported. The dual-beam laser ablation greatly reduced debris deposition and, thus, significantly improved the ablation quality compared with single-beam ablation of the KrF laser. High-quality ablation can be achieved at the delay times of KrF excimer laser irradiation shorter than 10 ns due to a large excited-state absorption. The ablation rate can reach up to 80 nm/pulse at the fluence of 4.0 J/cm2 for the 248-nm laser and 60 mJ/cm2 for the F2 laser. The ablation threshold and effective absorption coefficient of KrF excimer laser are estimated to be 1.4 J/cm2 and 1.2×105 cm-1, respectively.

    Positive inotropic action of angiotensin II in the pithed rat (1993)

    Notes: Summary The cardiovascular effects of angiotensin II were examined in aortic blood pressure-controlled and-uncontrolled pithed rats. Angiotensin II induced a dose-dependent increase in diastolic blood pressure, left ventricular pressure (LVP), dP/dt (the first derivative of LVP) and heart rate in pithed rats. The maximal responses for these parameters were similar to those to noradrenaline, except for the rise in diastolic blood pressure, where noradrenaline caused a greater increase than angiotensin II. After treatment with propranolol, the positive chronotropic effect of angiotensin II was abolished. Angiotensin II produced a dose-dependent increase in diastolic blood pressure, which was similar to that of vasopressin, and an increase in dP/dtmax, which proved much greater than that of vasopressin. When aortic blood pressure was controlled and the β-receptors were blocked by propranolol, angiotensin II caused a dose-dependent increase in dP/dtmax without affecting the left ventricular enddiastolic pressure. The same results were obtained after both β- and α-adrenoceptors were blocked by propranolol and phentolamine. Losartan but not PD 123177 caused parallel rightward shifts of the dose-response curve of angiotensin II for dP/dtmax in the aortic blood pressure controlled pithed rat without altering the maximal response. It is concluded that in the pithed rat angiotensin II produced an increase in myocardial contractile force which is not mediated by β- or α-adrenoceptors. The inotropic effect appears to be mediated by angiotensin receptors, of the AT1-subtype.

    Inhibitory effect of dithiothreitol on angiotensin II-induced contractions mediated by AT1-receptors in rat portal vein and rabbit aorta (1994)

    Notes: Abstract The disulfide-reducing agent dithiothreitol (DTT) has been shown to reduce angiotensin II (Ang II) subtype 1 receptor (AT,) binding sites in various tissues. Its effect on Ang II-induced contractions was studied in the rat portal vein and rabbit aorta. In the isolated rat portal vein, DTT shifted the concentration-response curve for Ang II to the right (DTT 0.5–3 mmol/l) and depressed the maximal response (DTT 1–3 mmol/l). DTT 5 mmol/l almost abolished the effect of Ang II. In the isolated rabbit aorta, the inhibitory effect of DTT was more pronounced and its pattern of effect was different,since DTT 0.3 and 0.5 mmol/l caused a progressive flattening of the concentration-response curve of Ang II. DTT (1 mmol/l) fully suppressed the effect of Ang II. A biphasic curve consisting of a high sensitivity component and a component of low sensitivity for Ang II was observed after pretreatment with DTT 1 mmol/l in the rat portal vein but not in the rabbit aorta. In the presence of DTT 1 mmol/l, the AT1-receptor antagonist losartan antagonized the high sensitivity response to Ang II in a competitive manner with a pA2 value very similar to that obtained in the absence of DTT, suggesting that this response to Ang II is mediated by those AT1-receptors which were not inactivated by DTT The biphasic curve may be explained by the occurrence of a single AT1-receptor subtype existing in two different states. Another possibility might be the involvement of two AT1-receptor subpopulations. It is concluded that disulfide bonds are critical for the functional role of AT1-receptors in Ang II-induced contractions in the rat portal vein and rabbit aorta.

    Thermal equation of state of iron and Fe0.91Si0.09 (1999)

    Notes: Abstract  We have carried out an in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction study on iron and an iron-silicon alloy Fe0.91Si0.09 at simultaneously high pressure and temperature. Unit-cell volumes, measured up to 8.9 GPa and 773 K on the bcc phases of iron and Fe0.91Si0.09, are analyzed using the Birch-Murnaghan equation of state and thermal pressure approach of Anderson. Equation of state parameters on iron are found to be in agreement with results of previous studies. For both iron and Fe0.91Si0.09, thermal pressures show strong dependence on volume; the (∂KT/∂T)V values are considerably larger than those previously reported for other solids. The present results, in combination with our previous results on ɛ-FeSi, suggest a small dependency of the room-temperature bulk modulus upon the silicon content, less than 0.3 GPa for 1 wt.% silicon. We also find that substitution of silicon in iron would not appreciably change the thermoelastic properties of iron-rich Fe−Si alloys. If this behavior persists over large pressure and temperature ranges, the relative density contrast between iron and iron-rich Fe−Si alloys at conditions of the outer core of the Earth could be close to that measured at ambient conditions, i.e., 0.6% for 1 wt.% Si.

    Notes: Abstract In situ X-ray diffraction experiments at high pressure were carried out up to 8.9 GPa and 1100 °C to study phase transformations of iron and two iron-silicon alloys Fe0.91Si0.09 and Fe0.83Si0.17. For iron, the transformation from the bcc phase to the fcc phase was observed at pressures 3.8–8.2 GPa and temperatures that are consistent with previous in situ X-ray diffraction studies. Reversal of the transformation of iron was found to be sensitive to temperature; hysteresis of the transformation increased from 25 °C at 3.8 GPa to 100 °C at 7.0 GPa, primarily because the bcc-fcc phase boundary has a negative Clayperon slope. In the binary system Fe-Si, the observations of the present study indicate that the ferrite (bcc phase)-stabilizing behavior of silicon persists at high pressures and that the maximum solubility of silicon in the fcc phase increases with increasing pressure: (1) the transformation from the bcc phase to the fcc phase was observed in Fe0.91Si0.09 at 6.0, 7.4 and 8.9 GPa and the temperatures measured at the onset of the transformations were 300 °C higher than those in iron at similar pressures, (2) the transformation rate in Fe0.91Si0.09 was extremely sluggish compared to that of iron, and (3) the bcc-fcc phase transformation was not observed in Fe0.91Si0.09 at 4.7 GPa up to 1000 °C and in Fe0.83Si0.17 at 8.2 GPa and 1100 °C.

    Notes: Abstract Isobaric volume measurements for MgO were carried out at 2.6, 5.4, and 8.2 GPa in the temperature range 300–1073 K using a DIA-type, large-volume apparatus in conjunction with synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction. Linear fit of the thermal expansion data over the experimental pressure range yields the pressure derivative, (∂α/∂P) T , of −1.04(8) × 10−6 GPa−1 K−1 and the mean zero-pressure thermal expansion α0, T  = 4.09(6) × 10−5 K−1. The α0, T value is in good agreement with results of Suzuki (1975) and Utsumi et al. (1998) over the same temperature range, whereas (∂α/∂P) T is determined for the first time on MgO by direct measurements. The cross-derivative (∂α2/∂P∂T) cannot be resolved because of large uncertainties associated with the temperature derivative of α at all pressures. The temperature derivative of the bulk modulus, (∂K T/∂T) P , of −0.025(3) GPa K−1, obtained from the measured (∂α/∂P) T value, is in accord with previous findings.
