We demonstrate a spherical diffractive lens fabricated in fused quartz for use at the 632.8-nm wavelength. The lens is constructed by use of a modulated two-dimensional binary grating with a high transmitted zerothorder efficiency. Rigorous eigenmode analysis is used to correlate the desired phase modulation with the…

Two types of novel aromatic copolyesters were synthesized from 11-phenoxyundecanoic acid (11-POU) as the sole carbon source and the cosubstrates 11-POU and octanoate, respectively, by isolated Pseudomonas putida BM01 that is known to accumulate high concentrations of medium-chain-length polyesters. Insoluble 11-POU wa…

A new technique for synthesizing small batches of oxide-based ceramic and glass materials from high purity powders is described. The method uses continuous wave CO2 laser beam heating of material held on a water-cooled copper hearth. Contamination which would normally result during crucible melting is eliminated. Deta…

Lamivudine can be obtained as acicular crystals (form I, 0.2 hydrate) from water or methanol and as bipyramidal crystals (form II, nonsolvated) from many nonaqueous solvents. Form II is thermodynamically favored in the solid state (higher melting point and greater density than form I) at ambient relative humidities. S…

Abstract Blends of polypropylene (PP), the triblock copolymer polystyrene‐ block ‐poly(ethylene‐ stat ‐butylene)‐ block ‐polystyrene (SEBS), and processing oil were found to form thermoplastic interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) structures in a composition range from about 10 to 55% by weight polypropylene. The IPN…

Abstract Helvetic sediments from the northern margin of the Alps in eastern Switzerland were studied by clay mineralogical methods. Based on illite “crystallinity” (Kübier index), the study area is divided into diagenetic zone, anchizone and epizone. Data on the regional distribution of the following index minerals ar…

The anodic polarization behavior of copper in 1 M NaI at ∼24°C was compared with calculations based on thermodynamic equilibria and shown to be consistent with the potential‐pH diagram for the system. An active region was predicted and observed where cuprous complexes, , are formed. The active region exhibited a Tafel…

Freshly produced red, yellow and green emitting porous Si specimens have been studied by NEXAFS and EXAFS (near edge and extended x-ray absorption fine structure). The emission peaks are at 690, 580, and 520 nm, which almost covers the full visible range that direct anodization can achieve. The correlation between the…

The electrochemical behavior of hydrated manganese‐substituted nickel hydroxides in Ni/Cd cells was studied. Partial substitution of manganese for nickel was shown to induce stabilization of the discharge capacity during long‐term cycling. Such behavior is related to the very small discrepancy between the interslab di…

The influence of a glass matrix on the spheroidal and torsional vibrational modes of microcrystals embedded into the matrix is analyzed. The low-frequency Raman scattering data are used to show that the influence of the matrix on the frequencies of the acoustic phonons confined in the microcrystals is significant even…

Abstract The rhenium oxides Re 2 O 7 and ReO 3 react with hydrogen peroxide solutions yielding peroxo complexes that efficiently catalyze the oxidation of olefins, aromatics, and certain organometallic compounds. In contrast, related oxides of molybdenum (MoO 3 ) and vanadium (V 2 O 5 ) do not activate H 2 O 2 under c…

A comparison between different simplified integral-breadth methods, often used in the Rietveld-refinement programs to calculate coherent domain size and lattice strain, is carried out. It is shown that systematic differences exist for both domain size and strain, when they simultaneously broaden diffraction lines. Amo…

Paracoccus denitrificans accumulated a polyester in its cells during growth on n-pentanol. The composition of the polyester varied during the cultivation: the level of the 3-hydroxyvalerate unit in the polyester increased, and eventually a homopolymeric poly(3-hydroxyvalerate) [P(3HV)] accumulated to an amount 22 to 2…
