Abstract Gd/Ni compounds with different Gd concentration have been investigated with constant initial state spectroscopy (CIS) of photoemission utilizing the light of synchrotron radiation. The photoemission cross‐sections of Gd 5d and 4f states show a strong resonance in CIS spectra at the Gd 5p absorption edge. The…

We present polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microlenses capable of thermally tuning their focal lengths via optically transparent indium tin oxide (ITO) microheaters. Microlenses with various diameters are created by molding PDMS over microstructures of reflowed photoresist. Due to a relatively large thermal expansion coef…

We report experimental excitation and characterization of surface plasmon modes in planar metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguides. Our approach is based on determining the width of the reflection angular spectrum in the attenuated total reflection (ATR) configuration. Owing to its transverse character, the ATR configur…

Abstract Der Einsatz fester, offenporiger Schwämme in verfahrenstechnischen Anwendungen verspricht viele Vorteile. Bedingt durch ihre Struktureigenschaften weisen sie einen geringen Druckverlust und einen verbesserten Wärme‐ und Stofftransport im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Partikelschüttungen auf. So wurde in den verg…

Hybrid Pt/TiO(2) nanostructures with diverse morphologies from nanodot, nanowire to mesoporous structures were obtained by a one-step synthesis based on block copolymer self-assembly. The structural transformation was easily tuned by controlling the relative amount of TiO(2) sol-gel precursor to poly(styrene-block-eth…

A rigorous and efficient computational method is developed to calculate transmission and reflection spectra for a finite number of air-hole arrays in a slab, where the incident waves are propagating modes of the slab. The method is a three-dimensional extension of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) map method previously d…
