AbstractThe luster is the most important characteristic of pearls, whose colors depend on periodic structures of aragonite crystal layers and conchiolin sheets. We here propose an optical model for analyzing the structural colors of pearls that includes the transmission, reflection, and scattering of light in pearls. Unlike other structural color materials, internal light scattering and its transmission are the keys to understanding the optical properties of pearls. The appearance of pearls is determined by the superposition of transmitted and reflected light. The transmission and reflection spectra of pearls calculated using the proposed model show good agreement with experimental results. We also demonstrate the rendering of images of pearls using the calculated spectra. Furthermore, the appearance of pearls with different layer thicknesses are predicted by calculation based on the optical model.

This paper concerns the problem of modelling electrical, thermal and optical properties of multi-colour power light-emitting diodes (LEDs) situated on a common PCB (Printed Circuit Board). A new form of electro-thermo-optical model of such power LEDs is proposed in the form of a subcircuit for SPICE (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuits Emphasis). With the use of this model, the currents and voltages of the considered devices, their junction temperature and selected radiometric parameters can be calculated, taking into account self-heating phenomena in each LED and mutual thermal couplings between each pair of the considered devices. The form of the formulated model is described, and a manner of parameter estimation is also proposed. The correctness and usefulness of the proposed model are verified experimentally for six power LEDs emitting light of different colours and mounted on an experimental PCB prepared by the producer of the investigated devices. Verification was performed for the investigated diodes operating alone and together. Good agreement between the results of measurements and computations was obtained. It was also proved that the main thermal and optical parameters of the investigated LEDs depend on a dominant wavelength of the emitted light.

AbstractThe descriptive scattering parameters, haze and angular distribution functions of textured ZnO:Al transparent conductive oxides with different surface roughness are measured. An approach to determine the scattering parameters of all internal interfaces in p-i-n a-Si:H solar cells deposited on the glass/ZnO:Al substrates is presented. Using the determined scattering parameters as the input parameters of the optical model, a good agreement between the measured and simulated quantum efficiencies of the p-i-n a-Si:H solar cells with different interface roughness is achieved.

AbstractExtinction spectroscopy is a powerful tool for demonstrating the coupling of a single quantum emitter to a photonic structure. However, it can be challenging in all but the simplest of geometries to deduce an accurate value of the coupling efficiency from the measured spectrum. Here we develop a theoretical framework to deduce the coupling efficiency from the measured transmission and reflection spectra without precise knowledge of the photonic environment. We then consider the case of a waveguide interrupted by a transverse cut in which an emitter is placed. We apply that theory to a silicon nitride waveguide interrupted by a gap filled with anthracene that is doped with dibenzoterrylene molecules. We describe the fabrication of these devices, and experimentally characterise the waveguide coupling of a single molecule in the gap.

Abstract We determine a model of the ionic interactions in RF3 compounds, where R is a rare-earth element in the series from La to Lu, by an analysis of data on the bond length and the vibrational mode frequencies of the PrF3, GdF3 and HoF3 molecular monomers. All RF3 monomers are predicted to have a pyramidal shape, displaying a progressive flattening of the molecular shape in parallel with the lanthanide contraction of the bond length. The vibrational frequencies of all monomers are calculated, the results being in good agreement with the data from infrared studies of matrix-isolated molecules. We also evaluate the geometrical structure and the vibrational spectrum of the La2F6 and Ce2F6 dimers, as a further test of the proposed model. -PACS 36.40.Wa (Charged clusters)

An analytical method based on a creep model is being developed to investigate the effect of retightening on stress relaxation behavior for high-temperature turbine and valve studs/bolts. In order to validate the approach, the calculated results are compared to the results of uniaxial reloading stress relaxation testing, which were performed by the National Research Institute for Metals of Japan (NRIM) for 12Cr-1Mo-1W-1/4V stainless steel bolting material at 550°C. It was shown that the proposed model based on Altenbach-Gorash-Naumenko creep model for the primary and steady state creep could be applied for the present data. The calculated residual stresses versus time curves were in good agreement with the measured for initial stress level of 273.6MPa at 550°C and for specific reloading time intervals of 24, 72, 240, and 720 hours.

The article presents the results of the development and study of a combined circuitry (compact) model of thin metal oxide films based memristive elements, which makes it possible to simulate both bipolar switching processes and multilevel tuning of the memristor conductivity taking into account the statistical variability of parameters for both device-to-device and cycle-to-cycle switching. The equivalent circuit of the memristive element and the equation system of the proposed model are considered. The software implementation of the model in the MATLAB has been made. The results of modeling static current-voltage characteristics and transient processes during bipolar switching and multilevel turning of the conductivity of memristive elements are obtained. A good agreement between the simulation results and the measured current-voltage characteristics of memristors based on TiOx films (30 nm) and bilayer TiO2/Al2O3 structures (60 nm/5 nm) is demonstrated.
