Exact limiting relation between the structure factors in neutron and x-ray scattering
The ratio of the static matter structure factor measured in experiments on
coherent X-ray scattering to the static structure factor measured in
experiments on neutron scattering is considered. It is shown theoretically that
this ratio in the long-wavelength limit is equal to the nucleus charge at
arbitrary thermodynamic parameters of a pure substance (the system of nuclei
and electrons, where interaction between particles is pure Coulomb) in a
disordered equilibrium state. This result is the exact relation of the quantum
statistical mechanics. The experimental verification of this relation can be
done in the long wavelength X-ray and neutron experiments.Comment: 7 pages, no figure
Silicon-Based Optoelectronic Tongue for Label-Free and Nonspecific Recognition of Vegetable Oils
International audienceA special electronic tongue system based on photoelectric measurements on Si-Si/SiN (X) sensitive structures is reported. The sensing approach is based on measuring of minority carrier lifetime in silicon-based substrates using microwave-detected photoconductance decay. This inexpensive and environmentally friendly combinatorial electronic sensing platform is able to create characteristic electronic fingerprints of liquids, detect, and recognize them. In particular, an application of the optoelectronic tongue for recognition of vegetable oils and their mixtures is described
