The visualization of index-of-refraction (IoR) distribution is one of the common methods to investigate fluid flow or pressure fields. While schlieren and shadowgraphy imaging techniques are widely accepted, their inherent limitations often lead to difficulties in elucidating the IoR distribution and extracting the true IoR information from the resulting images. While sophisticated solutions exist, the IoR-gradient-to-image was achieved by purposely introducing a commonly avoided “defect” into the optical path of a conventional coincident schlieren/shadowgraphy setup; the defect is a combination of slight defocusing and the use of non-conjugate optical components. As such, the method presented in this work is referred to as defocusing shadowgraphy, or DF-shadowgraphy. While retaining the ease of a conventional schlieren/shadowgraphy geometry, this DF approach allows direct visualization of complicated resonant acoustic fields even without any data processing. For instance, the transient acoustic fields of a common linear acoustic resonator and a two-dimensional one were directly visualized without inversion. Moreover, the optical process involved in DF-shadowgraphy was investigated from a theoretical perspective. A numerical solution of the sophisticated impulse response function was obtained, which converts the phase distortion into intensity distributions. Based on this solution, the IoRs of various gas streams (e.g., CO2 and isopropanol vapor) were determined from single images.
Infraredmatrix-assisted laser dispersion and ionization(IR-MALDI) in combination with on mobility (IM) spectrometry enables the direct Analysis of biomolecules in aqueous solution. The release of ions directly from an aqueous solution is based on a phase explosion, induced by the Absorption of an IR laser pulse, which disperses the liquid as vapor, nano- and micro-droplets. The ionization process is characterized initially by a broad spatial distribution of the ions, which is a result of complex fluid dynamics and desolvation kinetics. These processes have a profound effect on the shape and width of the peaks in the IM spectra. In this work, the Transport of ions by the phase explosion-induced shockwave could be studied independently from the transport by the electric field. The shockwave-induced mean velocities of the ions at different time scales were determined through IM spectrometry and shadowgraphy. The results show a deceleration of the Ions from 118m∙s−1 at a distance of 400 μm from the liquid surface to 7.1 m∙s−1 at a distance of 10 mm, which is caused by a pileup effect. Furthermore, the desolvation kinetics were investigated
and a first-order desolvation constant of 325 ± 50 s−1
was obtained. In the second part, the IR-MALDI-IM
spectrometer is used as an HPLC detector for the twodimensional separation of a pesticide mixture.
