A femtosecond pulse laser in the visible spectral region shows promise as a potentially new powerful corneal sculpting tool. It combines the clinical and technical advantages of visible wavelengths with the high ablation quality observed with nanosecond-pulse excimer lasers at 193 nm. A femtosecond and a nanosecond dye laser with pulse durations of 300 fs and 7 ns, and centre wavelengths at 615 nm and 600 nm, respectively, both focused to an area of the order of 105 cm2, have been applied to human corneal ablation. Nanosecond laser pulses caused substantial tissue disruption within a 30100 m range from the excision edge at all fluences above the ablation threshold of F th60 J cm2 (I th9 GW cm2). Completely different excisions are produced by the femtosecond-pulse laser: high quality ablations of the Bowman membrane and the stroma tissue characterised by damage zones of less than 0.5 m were observed at all fluences above ablation threshold of F th1 J cm2 or I th3 TW cm2 (3×1012 W cm2). The transparent cornea material can be forced to absorb ultrashort pulses of extremely high intensity. The fs laser generates its own absorption by a multiphoton absorption process.
SFC/FTIR, SFC/APCI-MS and MALDI-TOF-MS for the analysis of siloxane-ethylene oxide copolymers
(2000)
Polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMSs) modified by introducing ethylene oxide units with the aim of forming sufficiently water-soluble siloxane compounds were characterized using supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) coupled with Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (APCIMS), and matrix-assisted laser desorptionionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDITOF-MS). SFC has a domain in analyzing oligomers. Hyphenated techniques enable elucidation of the components. Remarkable is the resolution and short analysis time of MALDITOF-MS. SFC also allows quantification of the basic and reaction products.
Numerous polycondensations of isosorbide and suberoyl chloride or other aliphatic dicarboxylic acid dichlorides were performed with pyridine as a catalyst and HCl acceptor. The reaction conditions were varied to optimize both the molecular weight and the fraction of cyclic oligo- and polyesters. Furthermore, we attempted to obtain the cyclic monomer by catalyzed back-biting degradation of the molten cyclic polyesters above 220 °C in vacuo. The polyesters were characterized by viscosity and size exclusion chromatographic measurements as well as matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. In selected cases, mixtures of linear and cyclic polyesters were treated with a hot solution of partially methylated ß-cyclodextrin in methanol. This treatment allowed for a selective extraction of the linear chains up to approximately 5000 Da.
We report measurements of the optical breakdown threshold and ablation depth in dielectrics with different band gaps for laser pulse durations ranging from 5 ps to 5 fs at a carrier wavelength of 780 nm. For tau <100 fs, the dominant channel for free electron generation is found to be either impact or multiphoton ionization (MPI) depending on the size of the band gap. The observed MPI rates are substantially lower than those predicted by the Keldysh theory. We demonstrate that sub-10-fs laser pulses open up the way to reversible nonperturbative nonlinear optics (at intensities greater than 1014 W/cm2 slightly below damage threshold) and to nanometer-precision laser ablation (slightly above threshold) in dielectric materials.
Die Mikro- und Nanotechnologie gehört zu den Schlüsseltechnologien des 21. Jahrhunderts mit hohen Wachstumsprognosen, wie auch die im Auftrag des BMBF durchgeführte Studie “Nanotechnologie als wirtschaftlicher Wachstumsmarkt” von 2004 ausführlich darstellt. Aus diesem Trend resultiert ein steigender Bedarf an Messsystemen, die Nanostrukturen prozessnah bzw. im Fertigungsprozess charakterisieren können. Virtuelle Messgeräte liefern Erkenntnisse zur Entwicklung neuartiger Messsysteme, Analyse und Optimierung bestehender Verfahren sowie die Bestimmung der Messunsicherheit und modellbasierten Korrektur systematischer Fehler. Der virtuelle Messprozess umfasst neben dem Messmittel auch die Probe und die Wechselwirkungen zwischen beiden. In diesem Beitrag werden virtuelle Messgeräte vorgestellt sowie deren Anwendung diskutiert.
The inhalationof smoke gases is awell-established cause of poisoning and leads to the death of fire victims. Carbonmonoxide(CO) and Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) are two of the main noxious gases,whereby HCN is formed by an incomplete combustion of materials containing nitrogen. These materials may be natural materials, such as wool, silk and feathers or synthetic plastics, such as polyacrylonitrile (PAN), polyamide and polyurethane. These materials are very common in modern household furnishings; therefore, notonlyCObutalsoHCN can be produced during home fires. Up tonowonly a fewstudieshave been carried out on the generation of HCN as the fire proceeds, e. g. by Crewe et al. The data from such analyses are useful for forensic purposes. This enables the possibility to more accurately assess the events at the fire location, the Situation in which the fire victims are found as well as the cause of death. One way to analyze the gas composition of smoke is to perform bench scale fire tests, where various fire scenarios can be simulated on a smaller scale (e. g. using a smoke density chamber). The results from such experiments were compared with the results obtained in an enclosed room fire test.
