We present an extension of the rigorous coupled-wave analysis technique to analyze second-harmonic generation (SHG) in periodic optical nanostructures in the undepleted-pump approximation. We apply this method to analyze SHG in two example nanostructures for which we predict enhanced nonlinearity due to transverse nea…

Abstract Fracture initiation and fracture propagation toughening (R‐curve behavior) of polyamide 6,6 (PA‐66) polymers with different types of layered silicate clay having nanoscale (fully dispersed) or multiscale (mixed nanoscale/microscale) structure were studied. These results were compared to fracture data for conv…

Inverse Fourier transform method has been commonly used for designing complex inhomogeneous optical coatings. Since it assumes dispersion-free optical constants, introducing real optical materials induces shifts in the position of reflectance bands in multiband inhomogeneous minus (rugate) filters. We propose a simple…

Summary The organic matter in soils may be stabilized by its interactions with minerals. We have studied such interactions in a Haplic Alisol under forest in which clay and organic matter have migrated from an eluvial A horizon to accumulate in an illuvial B horizon. We have tried to trace the fate of organic matter i…

The gas flow rates for hazardous air pollutant emissions are generally large and their concentrations are low (in parts per million levels). When we try to directly treat the large flow rate and low concentration exhaust gas, the size of the equipment becomes large, resulting in high operating cost. The objective of t…

Si 3 N 4 /SiC composite ceramics were sintered and subjected to three‐point bending. A semi‐elliptical surface crack of 100 μm surface length was made on each specimen. The crack‐healing behavior under cyclic stress of 5 Hz, and resultant cyclic fatigue strengths at healing temperatures of 1100° and 1200°C, were syste…

Abstract The crystal structure of kröhnkite [Na 2 Cu(SO 4 ) 2 ·2H 2 O], which contains infinite chains composed of CuO 6 octahedra corner-linked with SO 4 tetrahedra, was originally determined 1952 by Dahlman. Since then, a large number of both minerals (e.g., collinsite, fairfieldite, etc.) and synthetic compounds wi…

Effects of Ni or Mn doping in (Ba0.5Sr0.5)TiO3 thin films on leakage current behaviors of Pt/(Ba0.5Sr0.5)TiO3/Pt capacitors were investigated. The leakage current level was found to reduce significantly after the doping over a wide range of voltages and temperatures. The leakage current in an undoped capacitor was lar…
