The absorption spectra of Si/SiO2/Si3N4/Si+ and Si/SiO2/Si+ structures with an island surface layer are calculated using the finite difference time domain method. The absorption spectra were modeled depending on the thickness of the substrate and its doping level. It was found that the thickness of the i-Si substrate does not affect the overall absorption of the structure. At the same time, an increase in the thickness of the n-Si substrate leads to an expansion of the absorption band with an intensity of more than 70%. It is established that the doping level of the substrate affects the absorption value of the structures and bandwidth with an absorption value above 80%. It is shown that a wide absorption band with intensity of more than 80% occurs at the doping level of the substrate in the range of 2 . 1019—5 . 1019 cm–3. Dispersion relations in the Si+/SiO2/Si+ structure with an unstructured surface layer are obtained. These dispersion relations may indicate the existence of plasmon oscillations in the system. It is established that a violation of the phase synchronization of the modes at both Si/dielectric interfaces at a significant difference between the doping levels of the substrate and the surface layer can lead to a decrease in the absorption.

Abstract. Nitric oxide (NO) is a short-lived compound of the marine nitrogen cycle; however, our knowledge about its oceanic distribution and turnover is rudimentary. Here we present the measurements of dissolved NO in the surface and bottom layers at 75 stations in the Bohai Sea (BS) and the Yellow Sea (YS) in June 2011. Moreover, NO photoproduction rates were determined at 27 stations in both seas. The NO concentrations in the surface and bottom layers were highly variable and ranged from below the limit of detection (i.e., 32 pmol L−1) to 616 pmol L−1 in the surface layer and 482 pmol L−1 in the bottom layer. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) between the mean NO concentrations in the surface (186±108 pmol L−1) and bottom (174±123 pmol L−1) layers. A decreasing trend of NO in bottom-layer concentrations with salinity indicates a NO input by submarine groundwater discharge. NO in the surface layer was supersaturated at all stations during both day and night and therefore the BS and YS were a persistent source of NO to the atmosphere at the time of our measurements. The average flux was about 4.5×10-16 mol cm−2 s−1 and the flux showed significant positive relationship with the wind speed. The accumulation of NO during daytime was a result of photochemical production, and photoproduction rates were correlated to illuminance. The persistent nighttime NO supersaturation pointed to an unidentified NO dark production. NO sea-to-air flux densities were much lower than the NO photoproduction rates. Therefore, we conclude that the bulk of the NO produced in the mixed layer was rapidly consumed before its release to the atmosphere.

AbstractThe results of the study of optical absorption and EPR signals of single crystals of zinc oxide doped with manganese are presented. A broad impurity absorption band with the threshold energy about 2.1 eV, which was treated as a result of charge transfer transitions, has been observed for a long time in ZnO : Mn absorption spectra. In absorption spectra of a polarized light at 4.2 and 77.3 K, we first detected several lines of different intensity in a 1.877–1.936 eV range of energies of the light quanta. The observed lines are attributed to a donor exciton [( d ^5 + h ) e ] that emerges as a result of the Coulomb binding a free s electron and a hole, which is localized on p – d hybridized states. The EPR spectra of Mn^2+ ion signals, when corresponding to the impurity absorption band exposed to light, are found to be not photosensitive. The obtained results indicate that the ZnO : Mn impurity absorption is due to transitions from antibonding p – d hybridized DBH states to the conduction band.

Using an eight terminal geometry in standard current/voltage contact configurations we have determined both the out-of-plane and the in-plane d.c. resistivity in BSCCO(2212) samples at different doping level. Comparison of the temperature behaviors for these transport quantities highlights that use of these configurations results in incorrect determinations for the in-plane components. Exploiting the possibility of crossed comparisons when using a multi-terminal technique we are able to ascribe this effect at presence on the sample of surface layer with oxygen contents different from the bulk.

[MnO2(1.0mol%) : Tb4O7(0.5mo%)] doped stoichiometric LiNbO3 (Mn:Tb:SLN) single crystals of 0.5~1.0 mm in diameter and 30~35 mm in length were grown by micro pulling down(µ-PD) method. We investigated the photoluminescence (PL) properties of Mn:Tb:SLN single crystal. The OH- absorption band of the single crystals observed infrared the absorption spectra by using an FT-IR spectrophotometer at room temperature. Homogeneous distributions of Mn and Tb concentration were confirmed by the EPMA and observed defects by optical microscopy.

1,2-Dicyano esters show an absorption band around 245 mμ in alcoholic solutions which is not found in non-polar and other polar solvents. This anomalous behavior has been found to be due to the unusual solvent dependence of the equilibrium between the keto and enol forms. The intensity of the absorption band in alcoholic solutions decreases with increase in concentration of the 1,2-dicyano ester, indicating association of the enol form. The keto–enol equilibrium is also found to be sensitive to the substituent R of the alcohol ROH.

Velocity distribution functions which feature extended tails with power-law dependence have been consistently observed in the solar wind environment and are frequently modelled by the so-called Kappa distributions. Different forms of Kappa distributions are commonly employed in analytical studies, and despite their similarities, they can produce different effects on the dispersion properties that occur in a plasma. We consider two different and widely used forms of Kappa distributions, in both isotropic and anisotropic cases, and systematically discuss their effects on the dispersion relations of Langmuir and ion-sound waves. It is shown that in the case of Langmuir waves, one of the forms leads to the expression for the Bohm–Gross dispersion relation, valid for plasmas with Maxwellian velocity distributions, while the other form of Kappa functions leads to a dispersion relation with significant difference regarding the Maxwellian case, particularly in the case of small values of the kappa index. For ion-sound waves, the dispersion relations obtained with the different forms of Kappa distributions are different among themselves, and also different from the Maxwellian case, with difference which increases for small values of the kappa index. Some results obtained from numerical solution of the dispersion relations are presented, which illustrate the magnitude of the perceived differences. Some results obtained with relativistic particle-in-cell simulations are also presented, which allow the comparison between the dispersion relations obtained from analytical calculations and the frequency–wavelength distribution of wave fluctuations which are observed in numerical experiments.

It has been realized by several investigators that with some exceptions compounds containing the hydroxyl group have a sharp absorption band close to 2.75 μ , and frequently another much wider band about 3 μ . Erreta and Mollet (1936, 1937) and Erreta (1937) have shown that the latter is an "association" band which diminishes on dilution in a non-polar solvent, or by raising the temperature, when the association complexes split up and the hydroxyl band at 2.75 μ becomes more pronounced. (Compare also Barchewitz (1937) and Freymann (1937). In the present investigations of the infra-red absorption spectra of certain hydroxyl compounds in the 3 μ region we have made observation of the effect of the structure of the molecule on both the above-mentioned bands, as well as on the CH vibration bands. The OH bands in the region about 1.4-1.6 μ have been investigated by Wulf and his co-workers (1935, 1936) for the most part with solutions of about 0.01 mol./l/ in which the association band had practically disappeared.

Abstract Spectral evidence supports the conclusion reached in Part IV that ring-chain mesomerism in methyl and ethyl Δ1,5-hexadiene-l,1,3,3,4,4,6,6-octacarboxylates is nonexistent in solution, just as in the crystalline state. The data are not inconsistent with chain hyperconjugation in these molecules. The marked change in structural type that follows the addition of one molecule of hydrogen or hydrolytic reagent has been verified spectrographically. The spectra of methyl and ethyl α,γ-dicarboxyglutaconic esters and their sodium and cupric derivatives have been measured in various solvents, and their tautomeric behavior compared with that of other keto-enols. Of special interest is the intense long-wave absorption band of the enolate ions, which are recognized as simple structural analogs of the cyanine dyes giving rise to similar charge-resonance spectra. A preliminary comment is made on the present accepted structure of ethyl 6-ethoxy-α-pyrone-3:5-dicarboxylate.
