    Notes: Abstract A quantitative theory of light propagation in a dielectric slab guide with general cladding media is presented. It is based on a plane wave which bounces in a zigzag fashion along the guide as a result of total or partial reflections at the two surfaces of the film. Two mechanisms are considered which contribute to the attenuation of the guide: losses due to absorption in the slab and cladding materials, and radiation losses if the guide is a leaky one. We point out the significance of the Goos-Hänchen effect for all questions relating to the power flow in the slab guide. The theory is illustrated by discussing dispersion and attenuation of guides with various low-index and high-index claddings, operating above and below cutoff. The low-index leaky guide is considered particularly in detail. Its high attenuation by leakage can be reduced to practically acceptable values (〈1d B/cm) by increasing the film thickness to ≳ 40λ. One application of this guide is in the leaky wave coupler. This coupler may be viewed as a prism-film coupler simplified by omission of the gap. It offers a new approach to the problem of broad-band coupling to thin-film light guides.

    Notes: The crystallization behavior of samples of poly(ethylene oxide) of varying molecular weights and molecular weight distributions has been studied under varying conditions of shear rate and temperature. These experiments have been carried out in two devices. One is a shearing parallel-plate instrument that allows direct observation of the crystallizing medium. The other is a shearing concentric-cylinder dilatometer. In general, shear enhanced the rates of crystallization and nucleation. However, conditions were encountered under which shear retarded crystallization and/or nucleation. Combination of the data from these two devices suggests that, under certain shearing and sample conditions, chain slippage and particle fracture lead to decreased apparent rates of nucleation and/or crystallization.

    Notes: A hydride Meisenheimer complex of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) (TNTH-) was synthesized using tetramethylammonium octahydroborate. TNT and TNTH- (as the tetramethylammonium salt) were analyzed by direct exposure probe mass spectrometry using electron impact (EI), chemical ionization (CI) and negative-ion chemical ionization (NCI). For further identification, the ions of the mass spectra were investigated using tandem mass spectrometry with collision-induced dissociation (CID). Although the EI mass spectra of both compounds were similar, the CID mass spectra of the ions at m/z 227 (M+ of TNT) of the two compounds showed large differences in daughter ion abundances. A major difference between the two compounds also appeared in their CI methane mass spectra. Two abundant ions, at m/z 183 and 198, appeared only in the CI mass spectrum of TNNH-. CID parent ion scans showed that the origin of these two ions was not the m/z 227 ion. We suggest that these ions are formed by chemical reactions of the complex on the surface of the heated probe tip, followed by ionization. These reactions, probably a reduction process forming m/z 198 and hydrolysis forming m/z 183, occur preferentially in TNTH-, the already reduced form of TNT. Formation of the ions at m/z 183 and 198 was also observed in the liquid chromatography particle beam CI mass spectrum of TNTH-.
