The photoluminescence (PL) study in porous silicon (PS) with decreasing Si crystallites size among the pores was reported. The PL appearance is attributed to electronic confinement in columnar-like (or dotlike) structures of porous silicon. Three different pore diameter PS samples were prepared by electrochemical etching in HF-based solutions. Changes in porous silicon and Si crystallite size were studied by observing an asymmetric broadening and shift of the optical silicon phonons in Raman scattering. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to study the role of siloxene or other molecular species, for example, in the luminescence mechanism. This mechanism was further studied by thermal annealing of PS at different temperatures. The PL of PS sample annealed at ≥300°C for 1 hr shows that trap electronic states appear in the energy gap of the smaller nano-crystal when Si–O–Si bonds are formed. From the observation of PL, Raman, and FTIR spectroscopy, the origin of PL in terms of intrinsic and extrinsic properties of nanocrystalline silicon was discussed.

Abstract Background Short-time sintering may offer advantages including saving time and energy but there is limited evidence on the effect that altering sintering time has on the accuracy of monolithic zirconia crowns. The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of shortened sintering time on the marginal and internal fit of 3Y-TZP (three mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal) and 4Y-TZP (four mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal) monolithic crowns. Methods Sixty monolithic zirconia crowns were fabricated for the maxillary first molar tooth on the prefabricated implant abutment. Groups were created according to the material composition: 3Y-TZP Generation 1 (alumina wt; ≤0.5%, < 15% cubic phase), 3Y-TZP Generation 2 (alumina wt; ≤0.05%, < 15% cubic phase) and 4Y-TZP (alumina wt; ≤0.05%, > 25% cubic phase). Two different sintering protocols were performed: same final sintering temperature (1500°C) and various rates of heating (10°C/min and 40°C/min), cooling down speed (-10°C/min and − 40°C/min), holding time (45 and 120 minutes), and total sintering time (approximately 2 and 7 hours, respectively). The marginal and internal fit of the crowns were determined using the silicone replica technique. Comparisons between groups and sintering times were analyzed using two-way ANOVA. Pairwise multiple comparisons were performed using the t-test (p < 0.05). Results The mean marginal gap values of 4Y-TZP zirconia revealed statistically significant increase for the speed sintering protocol (p < 0.0001), while no difference was observed between the sintering protocols for the mean marginal gap values of 3Y-TZP groups. Conclusions Although all groups showed clinically acceptable gap values (<120 µm), altering the sintering time had an effect on the marginal fit of the crowns manufactured from 4Y-TZP zirconia. Shortening the sintering time may lead to differences within clinically acceptable limits. The manufacturer's recommendations according to material composition should be implemented with care.

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.
