Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy for In-Cylinder Equivalence Ratio Measurements in Laser-Ignited Natural Gas EnginesApplied Spectroscopy - Tập 63 Số 5 - Trang 549-554 - 2009
Sachin Joshi, Daniel B. Olsen, Cosmin E. Dumitrescu, Paulius V. Puzinauskas, Azer P. Yalin
In this contribution we present the first demonstration of simultaneous use of
laser sparks for engine ignition and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS)
measurements of in-cylinder equivalence ratios. A 1064 nm neodynium yttrium
aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser beam is used with an optical spark plug to ignite
a single cylinder natural gas engine. The optical emission from the combustion
init... hiện toàn bộ
Instantaneous Temperature Imaging of Diffusion Flames Using Two-Line Atomic FluorescenceApplied Spectroscopy - Tập 64 Số 2 - Trang 173-176 - 2010

This work investigates the first demonstration of nonlinear regime two-line
atomic fluorescence (NTLAF) thermometry in laminar non-premixed flames. The
results show the expediency of the technique in the study of the reaction zone
and reveals interesting findings about the indium atomization process. Indium
fluorescence is observed to be strongest at the flame-front, where the
temperature exceeds ... hiện toàn bộ
Measurement of Small Volume Flame Temperatures by the Two-Line Atomic Fluorescence MethodApplied Spectroscopy - Tập 31 Số 2 - Trang 156-163 - 1977

Measurement of small volume temperatures of analytical flames by the two-line
atomic fluorescence technique involving the use of direct-line Stokes and
anti-Stokes fluorescence of indium and thallium has been examined. Spatial flame
temperatures have been measured with a volume resolution of 0.3 mm by 2 mm by 5
mm in the flame. Theoretical and practical considerations of the method are
given, part... hiện toàn bộ
Molecular Structure of Nitrogen in Coal from XANES SpectroscopyApplied Spectroscopy - Tập 47 Số 8 - Trang 1268-1275 - 1993
Oliver C. Mullins, Sudipa Mitra-Kirtley, J. van Elp, Stephen P. Cramer
Five major nitrogen chemical structures, present in coals of varying ranks, have
been quantitatively determined with the use of nitrogen x-ray absorption
near-edge spectroscopy (XANES). Similar studies of the sulfur chemical
structures of coals have been performed for the last ten years; nitrogen studies
on these fossil-fuel samples have only recently been realized. XANES spectra of
coals exhibit ... hiện toàn bộ
Mid-Infrared and Near-Infrared Spectral Properties of Mycorrhizal and Non-Mycorrhizal Root CulturesApplied Spectroscopy - Tập 63 Số 5 - Trang 494-500 - 2009
Francisco J. Calderón, Verónica Acosta‐Martínez, David D. Douds, James B. Reeves, Merle F. Vigil
We investigated the Fourier-transformed mid-infrared (MIR) and near-infrared
(NIR) spectroscopic properties of mycorrhizal (M) and non-mycorrhizal (NM)
carrot roots with the goal of finding infrared markers for colonization by
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. The roots were cultured with or without the
AM fungus Glomus intraradices under laboratory conditions. A total of 50 M and
NM samples were... hiện toàn bộ
Fluorescence Quenching Investigation of the Complexes of Dibenzofuran with Natural CyclodextrinsApplied Spectroscopy - Tập 56 Số 11 - Trang 1490-1497 - 2002
Pablo Baladrón Rodríguez, Miguel Sánchez, José Ramón Isasi, Gustavo González‐Gaitano
The steady-state fluorescence of dibenzofuran (DBF) in aqueous solution is
quenched in the presence of natural cyclodextrins (CDs), α, β, and γ-CD. The
decrease in the fluorescence is static in nature for all the macrocycles and
follows as a result of the formation of inclusion complexes of dominant 1:1
stoichiometry. With γ-CD, excimer emission is detected at high CD concentrations
due to the for... hiện toàn bộ
The Far Infrared Spectra of Monosubstituted PyridinesApplied Spectroscopy - Tập 17 Số 4 - Trang 90-97 - 1963
Raymond Isaac, F. F. Bentley, Helene Sternglanz, W. C. Coburn, C. V. Stephenson, W. S. Wilcox
Infrared spectra in the cesium bromide region are presented for 43
monosubstituted pyridines. Two- and 3-substituted pyridines are characterized in
this region by two relatively intense bands near 600 and 400 cm−1. No strong
characteristic bands are found for 4-substituted pyridines. The vapor-phase
contours of the far infrared bands of 2-fluoro- and 2-chloropyridine indicate
that the 600 and 400 ... hiện toàn bộ
Infrared and Raman Spectra of Pyrazinium HalidesApplied Spectroscopy - Tập 24 Số 6 - Trang 601-605 - 1970
R. Foglizzo, A. Novák
The ir and Raman spectra of pyrazinium chloride and bromide and their ND
deuterated derivatives have been obtained in the 4000–300 cm−1 range. Twenty-six
fundamentals of the pyrazinium ion are identified and compared to those of the
pyrazine molecule. Frequency shifts on protonation of pyrazine are discussed.
