ABSTRACTSecond-order non-linear optical anisotropy parameter ρ = χ33 / χ31 is calculated for collagen-richt issues considering both a single dominant molecular hyperpolarizability tensor element β333 = β at single helix level and a priori known submicrometric triple helical organization of collagen molecules. Modeling is further improved by taking account of Poisson photonic shot noise of the detection system and simple supra-molecular fibrillar arrangements in order to accurately simulate the dispersion of ρ values in collagen-rich tissues such as tendon, skin and liver vessels. From combined P-SHG experiments and modeling, we next correlate experimental and theoretical statistical distributions of ρ. Our results highlight that the dispersion of experimental ρ values is mainly due to (i) Poisson photonic shot noise in tendon and skin, which proves to have a preponderant effect in P-SHG experiments (ii) variance of supercoil angles of accordion-like fibrils in vessels that is further reduced during the development of liver fibrosis therefore contributing to the rigidity of the tissue. These results open new avenue for future modeling correlating the dispersion of ρ values in P-SHG experiments and the fibrillar architecture as well as the mechanical stiffness of patho-physiological extracellular matrices in collagen tissues.

The design, development, and testing of a prototype wide-area traffic detection system are described. The video-based sensor computes the approximate number of vehicles present within an a priori defined observation area from stand-still images. This sensor is mostly oriented toward the traffic detection in congested intersections, in which sensors using existing radar, acoustic, and video-based technology are faced with critical obstacles caused by the automobile stoppage. The prototype system has been tested and found to perform satisfactorily in field studies.

Electron diffraction intensity profiles have been used extensively in studies of polycrystalline and amorphous thin films. In previous work, diffraction intensity profiles were quantitized either by mechanically scanning the photographic emulsion with a densitometer or by using deflection coils to scan the diffraction pattern over a stationary detector. Such methods tend to be slow, and the intensities must still be converted from analog to digital form for quantitative analysis. The Instrumentation Division at Brookhaven has designed and constructed a electron diffractometer, based on a silicon photodiode array, that overcomes these disadvantages. The instrument is compact (Fig. 1), can be used with any unmodified electron microscope, and acquires the data in a form immediately accessible by microcomputer.Major components include a RETICON 1024 element photodiode array for the de tector, an Analog Devices MAS-1202 analog digital converter and a Digital Equipment LSI 11/2 microcomputer. The photodiode array cannot detect high energy electrons without damage so an f/1.4 lens is used to focus the phosphor screen image of the diffraction pattern on to the photodiode array.

An effective use of electron energy loss spectroscopy for chemical characterization of selected areas in the electron microscope can only be achieved with the development of quantitative measurements capabilities.The experimental assembly, which is sketched in Fig.l, has therefore been carried out. It comprises four main elements.The analytical transmission electron microscope is a conventional microscope fitted with a Castaing and Henry dispersive unit (magnetic prism and electrostatic mirror). Recent modifications include the improvement of the vacuum in the specimen chamber (below 10-6 torr) and the adaptation of a new electrostatic mirror.The detection system, similar to the one described by Hermann et al (1), is located in a separate chamber below the fluorescent screen which visualizes the energy loss spectrum. Variable apertures select the electrons, which have lost an energy AE within an energy window smaller than 1 eV, in front of a surface barrier solid state detector RTC BPY 52 100 S.Q. The saw tooth signal delivered by a charge sensitive preamplifier (decay time of 5.10-5 S) is amplified, shaped into a gaussian profile through an active filter and counted by a single channel analyser.

A cylindrical mirror analyser (CMA) has been built with a parallel recording detection system. It is being used for angular resolved electron spectroscopy (ARES) within a SEM. The CMA has been optimised for imaging applications; the inner cylinder contains a magnetically focused and scanned, 30kV, SEM electron-optical column. The CMA has a large inner radius (50.8mm) and a large collection solid angle (Ω > 1sterad). An energy resolution (ΔE/E) of 1-2% has been achieved. The design and performance of the combination SEM/CMA instrument has been described previously and the CMA and detector system has been used for low voltage electron spectroscopy. Here we discuss the use of the CMA for ARES and present some preliminary results.The CMA has been designed for an axis-to-ring focus and uses an annular type detector. This detector consists of a channel-plate/YAG/mirror assembly which is optically coupled to either a photomultiplier for spectroscopy or a TV camera for parallel detection.

As the HREM becomes increasingly used for the study of dynamic localized phenomena, the development of techniques to recover the desired information from a real image is important. Often, the important features are not strongly scattering in comparison to the matrix material in addition to being masked by statistical and amorphous noise. The desired information will usually involve the accurate knowledge of the position and intensity of the contrast. In order to decipher the desired information from a complex image, cross-correlation (xcf) techniques can be utilized. Unlike other image processing methods which rely on data massaging (e.g. high/low pass filtering or Fourier filtering), the cross-correlation method is a rigorous data reduction technique with no a priori assumptions.We have examined basic cross-correlation procedures using images of discrete gaussian peaks and have developed an iterative procedure to greatly enhance the capabilities of these techniques when the contrast from the peaks overlap.
