    Notes: The electronic polarizability and optical basicity of La2O3 and related glasses have been determined from ultraviolet absorption spectra and calculations based on the Lorentz–Lorenz equation. The optical basicity for La2O3 oxide is found to be 1.07, being much larger compared with typical glass-forming oxides such as B2O3 (0.42) and SiO2 (0.48) but being similar to heavy element oxides such as TeO2 (0.93). The Yamashita and Kurosawa's interaction parameter of La2O3 is 0.03 Å−3, indicating that La2O3 is classified as a normal ionic (basic) oxide, i.e., an ionic bonding character in the La3+–O bond is proposed. Close correlations are confirmed among optical basicity, interaction parameter, and oxygen 1s binding energy in x-ray photoelectron (XPS) spectra for La2O3–P2O5 and other La2O3-containing glasses. It is found from XPS and Raman spectra that La3+ ions in La2O3–P2O5 glasses act as network modifiers, supporting an ionic bonding character in the La3+–O bond. The parameters related to electronic polarizability in La2O3 determined in the present study would be useful for the design of rare-earth containing optical functional glasses. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Transparent optical nonlinear crystallized glasses with the composition of 25La2O3 25B2O3 50GeO2, stoichiometric to ferroelectric stillwellite-type LaBGeO5 crystalline phase, have been prepared by a two-step heat-treatment (first heat treatment: T1=670 °C, t1=10 h, second heat-treatment: T2, t2), and their second harmonic (SH) intensities have been examined using the Maker fringe method. The samples obtained by heat treatments at T2=720∼725 °C for t2=3 h show only surface crystallization and exhibit clear and fine (narrow) fringe patterns. The samples heat treated at T2=740 and 750 °C exhibit relatively strong SH intensities, but the fringe patterns in such samples are broad. It is proposed that SH waves generated from surface LaBGeO5 crystalline layers scatter at LaBGeO5 crystals formed in the interior of glass, causing the disappearance of fine fringe patterns. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The structural relaxation kinetics in the glass transition for xSb2O3⋅(100−x)B2O3 glasses with covalent bonding character has been examined from viscosity and heat capacity measurements. These binary glasses have low glass transition temperatures, Tg=250–290 °C, but show a high thermal resistance against crystallization. The degree of fragility m estimated from the activation energy for viscous flow (Eη=290–531 kJ mol−1) is m=29–51. The activation energy for enthalpy relaxation, ΔH=297–602 kJ mol−1, is evaluated from the cooling rate dependence of the limiting fictive temperature. The ΔH values are very close to the Eη values, meaning that the decoupling between enthalpy relaxation and viscous flow is small. The values of Kovacs–Aklonis–Huchinson–Ramos (KAHR) parameter θ estimated from ΔH/RTg2 are 0.13–0.25, where R is the gas constant. The glasses with 30–60 mol % Sb2O3 have very similar Eη, m, ΔH, and θ values. It has been demonstrated that the structural relaxation kinetics of the binary antimony borate glasses is affected by the boron coordination numbers (i.e., BO3 and BO4) and the covalent bonding character of Sb–O bonds, and consequently these glasses are regarded as a highly strong glass-forming system in the fragile/strong classification concept. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique was applied to detect genetic variation in a sample of 47 plants representing 12 diploid cultivars of rhodesgrass. In this analysis, 50±91 easily scorable fragments could be detected in a single reaction. Each of the individual plants was uniquely identified by a combination of three primer pairs and an 80.2% level of polymorphism was obtained. Large amounts of genetic variation were present within all the cultivars. The results showed that AFLPs could be a robust technique for genome analysis in rhodesgrass with a promising potential as a breeding tool.

    Notes: The linkage relationships between 164 polymorphic amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and 25 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) fragments assayed in a pseudo-testcross population generated from the mating of single genotypes from two divergent cultivars were used to construct female, ‘Katambora’ (‘Kat’) and male, ‘Tochirakukei’ (‘Toch’) parental genetic maps for rhodesgrass. The ‘Kat’ genetic map consists of 84 marker loci (72 AFLP and 12 RFLP markers) distributed on 14 linkage groups and spans a total length of 488.3 cM, with an average distance of 7.8 cM between adjacent markers. The ‘Toch’ genetic map consists of 61 marker loci (52 AFLP and nine RFLP) mapped on 12 linkage groups spanning a total length of 443.3 cM, with an average spacing of 9.0 cM between adjacent markers. About 23% of the markers remained unassigned. The level of segregation distortion observed in this cross was 11.1%. In both maps, linked duplicated RFLP loci were found. These linkage maps will serve as a starting point for linkage studies in rhodesgrass with potential application for marker-assisted selection in breeding programmes.

    Notes: Abstract In the present work crystallization kinetics of the amorphous Se80−xTe20Snx (0 ≤ x ≤ 9) system have been investigated using Differential Scanning Calorimetry. From the heating rate dependence of the glass transition temperature and the crystallization temperature the activation energy for the glass transition and that for crystallization have been determined using the Kissingers equation and Matusitas equation for non-isothermal crystallization of materials. The effect of addition of Sn to the Se-Te system on the dimentionality of crystal growth has been investigated. An increase in the glass transition temperature with increase in Sn content suggests that Sn plays a role in cross-linking the already existing Se-Te chains which causes an increase in the thermal stability of the material.

    Notes: Abstract The hybrid finite analytic (HFA) method is a kind of numerical scheme in rectangular element. In order to simulate the shallow circulation in irregular bathymetry by HFA scheme, the model in sigma coordinate system was obtained. The model has been tested against three cases: 1) Wind induced circulation; 2) Density driven circulation and 3) Seiche oscillation. The results obtained in the present study compare well with those obtained from the corresponding analytical solutions under idealized for the above three cases. The hybrid finite analytic method and the circulation model in sigma coordinate system can be used calculate the flow and water quality in estuaries and coastal waters.
