Performance parameters have been presented that can be used to compare the focusing performance of different optical systems, including the effect of pupil filters. These were originally given for the paraxial case and recently extended to the high-aperture scalar regime. We generalize these parameters to the full vec…

Verdrehte Ringe: Expandierte Porphyrine haben Möbiusband-Konformationen im Kristall und in Lösung. Die hohe Beweglichkeit einzelner Gruppen ermöglicht den temperatur- und lösungsmittelabhängigen Wechsel zwischen Hückel- und Möbius-Aromatizität. Metallionen der Gruppe 10 wirken als Klammern, die die notwendige Verdrill…

The way a liquid drop that is in contact with a nanoporous substrate evolves essentially depends on the competition between imbibition and spreading. Although the scaling behavior of this competitive process with liquid viscosity is important for various applications requiring the filling of nanoporous substrates (tem…

A theoretical model is suggested which describes the generation of nanoscale cracks in deformed nanocrystalline metals and ceramics. In the framework of the model, cracks are generated in the superposition of the stress fields of interfacial edge dislocations and disclination dipoles formed at interfaces (grain and in…

We describe a simple method to fabricate blazed gratings used in the extreme ultraviolet wavelength region. The method uses an argon and oxygen mixed-gas ion beam to directly etch the grating substrate through a rectangular profile photoresist grating mask. With this method the etched grating groove profile can be wel…

The electronic, magnetic, and mechanical properties of CaCu3V4O12 are investigated by use of the density functional theory method. The calculated results indicate that CaCu3V4O12 is a half-metallic and ferrimagnetic compound. The magnetic coupling for Cu-V is antiferromagnetic, while those for Cu-Cu and V-V are ferrom…
