Abstract:
Nanosecond and picosecond pulsed laser ablated materials from Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O superconducting targets are monitored by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry with a photodiode array detector. Differential vaporization was observed; elements of the lower-melting-point oxides (Bi2O3, and CuO) are enriched in the vapor phase, indicating a thermal vaporization mechanism. Melted droplets observed with SEM and enriched Ca and Sr content in the ablation crater measured with EDX support the hypothesis.

We report the preparation of the ZnO-6LiF composite with a polystyrene (PS) polymer as a host using the solution mixing process. 6LiF acts as a converter material that absorbs a thermal neutron and produces alpha particles, which excites ZnO micro-particles, resulting in UV–vis photons’ emission. The free-standing ZnO-6LiF/PS composite film is coupled to a photomultiplier tube (PMT). 241Am-Be (1Ci) is used as the neutron radiation source for measuring the response.

The effects of homopolymer molecular weight on the miscibility of PVC/PMMA solvent cast blends were studied. Two significantly different molecular weights were chosen for each of the homopolymers, and a series of blends was prepared from the four possible homopolymer-homopolymer combinations. Angle-dependent ESCA results suggest that the surfaces of the blends are enriched with PMMA. The extent of this enrichment is dependent on molecular weight, with the most enrichment seen in blends containing the lower-molecular-weight PMMA homopolymer.
