Carrier-induced refractive index in quantum dot structures due to transitions from discrete quantum dot levels to continuum states
The carrier-induced refractive index in quantum dot (QD) structures due to optical transitions from QD levels to continuum states is considered. It is shown that, for large photon energies, the refractive index change is given asymptotically by the Drude formula. Calculations of the linewidth enhancement factor, alpha, show that alphasimilar to1 due to this contribution to the total refractive index. Furthermore, for highly localized QD states, the absorption coefficient at the photon energies similar to0.8-1.0 eV due to these transitions can be on the order of 10(3) m(-1).

Dynamics of light propagation in spatiotemporal dielectric structures
Propagation, transmission and reflection properties of linearly polarized
plane waves and arbitrarily short electromagnetic pulses in one-dimensional
dispersionless dielectric media possessing an arbitrary space-time dependence
of the refractive index are studied by using a two-component, highly symmetric
version of Maxwell's equations. The use of any slow varying amplitude
approximation is avoided. Transfer matrices of sharp nonstationary interfaces
are calculated explicitly, together with the amplitudes of all secondary waves
produced in the scattering. Time-varying multilayer structures and
spatiotemporal lenses in various configurations are investigated analytically
and numerically in a unified approach. Several new effects are reported, such
as pulse compression, broadening and spectral manipulation of pulses by a
spatiotemporal lens, and the closure of the forbidden frequency gaps with the
subsequent opening of wavenumber bandgaps in a generalized Bragg reflector
Broadening of Plasmonic Resonance Due to Electron Collisions with Nanoparticle Boundary: а Quantum Mechanical Consideration
We present a quantum mechanical approach to calculate broadening of plasmonic
resonances in metallic nanostructures due to collisions of electrons with the
surface of the structure. The approach is applicable if the characteristic size
of the structure is much larger than the de Broglie electron wavelength in the
metal. The approach can be used in studies of plasmonic properties of both
single nanoparticles and arrays of nanoparticles.Comment: 9 page
Острая респираторная вирусная инфекция у детей: современные подходы к диагностике и лечению
The article is devoted to acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) in children. ARVI take one of the leading places in a childhood morbidity structure. The article provides an overview of the clinical guidelines developed and approved by the professional association «Union of Pediatricians of Russia» for acute respiratory infections in children. These guidelines summarize the experience of the leading world and domestic specialists, contain scientific and practical data that correspond to the most relevant trends in the management of children with this pathology. The authors present modern information on the etiology, pathogenesis, classification, clinical findings and differential diagnosis of various nosological forms of acute respiratory tract infections in the pediatric population. The general (strategic) principles of drug-free and drug treatment are discussed in detail.Статья посвящена острым респираторным вирусным инфекциям (ОРВИ) у детей.
