    Notes: A new prostaglandin analogue, 16, 16-dimethyl-trans-Δ2-PGE1 methyl ester (16 me E1) was used for preoperative cervical dilatation in 23 pregnant women who had abortion induced for socio-economical reasons in the first trimester of pregnancy. A single vaginal pessary containing 1 mg 16 me E1was inserted into the posterior fornix at 3-hour intervals. Thirteen (56.5 per cent) of the 23 patients had complete abortions and two patients (8.7 per cent) had incomplete abortions. In six patients (26.1 per cent) the cervix was dilated to at least 10 mm and the remaining two patients (8.7 per cent) required mechanical dilatation at the time of vacuum evacuation. Apart from mild gastrointestinal symptoms, no serious side effects were noted. It is concluded that the new prostaglandin analogue, 16 me E1, could be used safely and effectively for preoperative dilatation of the cervix before surgical abortion in early pregnancy.

    Notes: Summary. Dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEA-S) was given intravenously twice a week after 38 weeks gestation to ripen the uterine cervix in 20 nulliparae and 24 parous women who subsequently went into labour at term. The condition of the uterine cervix was assessed by Bishop scoring. The increase in the score in nulliparous women given DHEA-S was significantly greater than that in the control group, who were given placebo injections, on the 7th, 14th and 21st days. The increase in the parous women was significant only on the 7th day. In nulliparous women the dilatation, effacement and consistency improved significantly, while in the parous women the effect of DHEA-S was apparent only in the consistency. The duration of labour was significantly shortened by treatment with DHEA-S in nulliparae but this effect was not found in parous women. The interval between the first administration of DHEA-S and the onset of labour in nulliparae was significantly shorter than that in the control group. There were no serious side effects or complications. Our results suggest that DHEA-S may be used safely and effectively to ripen the uterine cervix and to trigger the onset of labour in late pregnancy.

    Notes: In high-power AlGaAs window structure lasers with a window grown on facets (WGF) structure, dependence of window effects on Al content of the window layer is examined. When the Al content of the window layer is more than that of the cladding layer, the window effects are found. But, in other cases, the window effects do not occur. A calculation of a carrier leakage from the active layer to the window layer is performed. From the result, we deduce that the reduction of the window effects is caused by the carrier leakage. In the WGF laser with the confirmed window effects, a maximum output power of 350 mW is achieved and highly reliable operation under 100 mW at 50 °C beyond 10000 h is attained.

    Notes: Several experiments were performed to elucidate the origin of the second-order optical nonlinearity χ(2) induced in the corona-poled Corning 7059 glass films. The values and the time decay of the second-harmonic coefficient d33 were measured for the glass films poled on several different kinds of substrates. The value of d33 was found to be dependent on the kinds of substrates. It was also observed that the glass films poled on a soda-lime substrate showed faster time decay of d33 than those poled on a Pyrex glass substrate. The glass films were also poled at room temperature, and the values of d33 were measured as a function of poling time. As a result, the value of d33 increased with the poling time and approached a value which was close to that obtained for the glass films poled at 100 °C. From the experimental results, it is speculated that the space charge formed in the vicinity of the interface between the glass film and the substrate contributes to the creation of the χ(2). The planar charge density at the glass-film–substrate interface is derived, and the experimental results are discussed.

    Notes: Phase matched noncollinear second harmonic generations (SHGs) are observed in 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline (MNA) single-crystal film waveguides. The phase matching condition is obtained by the cross point of the mode dispersion curves for the MNA waveguide. Theoretical analysis of the SHG conversion efficiency shows that the maximum efficiency is given by the conversion between the fundamental 1st mode and the SH 3rd mode. The experimental efficiency at this conversion is obtained to be 0.10% in the waveguide.

    Notes: A mixture of diamond and metal film was synthesized by a hybrid process combining plasma-jet chemical vapor deposition and a plasma-spray process. Sprayed molybdenum and tungsten were changed to Mo2C and tungsten carbide, respectively, and the lattice constants of Ni, Fe, and Co were increased by carbon-plasma spraying. Adhesion of film to the substrate was improved using the hybrid process to form a layer 50 to 150 μm thick of mixed metal and diamond between the substrate and pure diamond film.

    Notes: A copolymer of methyl methacrylate and azo-dye-substituted methacrylate is corona-poled. Cerenkov-type second-harmonic generation (SHG) of Nd:YAG laser is observed in the poled polymer waveguide even though there is strong absorption of the SHG wavelength. The total SHG conversion efficiency is 1.72 × 10−3%, and the net SHG conversion efficiency in the waveguide is 0.21%.

    Notes: Electrostatic plasma waves are excited in a laboratory plasma by means of the ponderomotive force of a high-power, power-modulated transversely excited atmosphere (TEA) CO2 laser beam [W. W. Duley, CO2 Lasers (Academic, New York, 1976), Chap. 2.5]. The strengths of the magnetic field, for which the plasma waves are excited selectively, and the group velocity of the excited plasma waves are consistent with the dispersion relation of the electrostatic ion cyclotron wave. This wave-excitation experiment gives proof to the principles of the driven scattering plasma diagnostics which has been proposed as a method for the ion temperature measurement of high-temperature plasmas.

    Notes: A new type of chalcone crystal was prepared. Anisotropic indices with wavelength dispersion were measured by the Brewster angle method. The two largest second-harmonic generation (SHG) tensor components were determined by the wedge method and compared with d11 of 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline. Calculated collinear and noncollinear phase-matched SHG patterns reasonably fit the observed photographs.

    Notes: Second-order optical nonlinearity χ(2) is induced in glass films by corona poling. The glass films are fabricated by radio-frequency sputtering Corning7059 onto Pyrex glass substrates. The values of second-order nonlinear coefficient d33 of the corona-poled glass films are estimated to be ∼0.5 pm/V. Using the corona-poled glass films as a waveguide, phase-matched second-harmonic generation has been demonstrated in the glass films for the first time. The origin of the χ(2) is considered to be related to the defects in the glass films.
