Parallel algorithms for simulation of ultrashort pulse propagation in turbid media
Parallel mesh algorithm to simulate the propagation of an ultrashort pulse from a point source with small aperture in turbid media is presented. The algorithm is applied to a particular case of propagation of infrared pulsed laser
radiation in biotissue. Comparison of obtained results with Monte Carlo simulation ones is performed
New advances in Raman study of polyvinylchloride structure
In this work we investigated Raman spectra of a number of industrial grades of polyvinylchloride powder and films, prepared from solutions in tetrahydrofuran and acetophenone. The number and spectral characteristics of the Raman lines in the spectral regions of the C-Cl stretching vibrations and in the region of the C-H and CH2 stretching vibrations were evaluated
Influence of a high-power pulsed ion beam on the mechanical properties of corundum ceramics
The mechanical properties of near-surface layers of corundum ceramics treated by high-power pulsed ion beam of carbon are investigated. The samples for investigation were prepared from corundum substrate, which is usually used in microelectronic. The ion treatment was carried out at the TEMP-4M facility under the following conditions: an accelerating voltage of 160-200 keV, the current density in the pulse varied within 15-85 A/cm{2} . It was found that ion irradiation changes the structure and properties of near-surface layers of corundum ceramics. At the same time, melting and erosion of the surface layer takes place. These processes are accompanied by the formation of a network of microcracks. Microcracks are propagated only by the depth of melting layer. The mechanical properties were measured using a NanoTest600 nanohardness testing instrument. It was found that the nanohardness depends of the treatment modes. At a current density of 15A/cm{2} , with an increase treatment dose, the nanohardness of the irradiated surface layer increases in comparison with the initial value before irradiation. At higher current densities, the nanohardness of irradiated ceramics decreases relatively to the initial value before irradiation. The dependences of nanohardness off the irradiation dose in this case have the view of a curves with a minimum at irradiation doses of 2.5∙1014 and 1.3∙1014 cm{-2} , for current densities of 50 and 85 A/cm{2} , respectively
