Alkaline Newsprint with High Brightness

High-Power High-Brightness Lasers

High power high brightness diode lasers are gaining more and more interest for applications previously dominated by expensive and inefficient solid-state lasers due to their better efficiency, brightness and compactness. The significant fact about conventional high brightness optical sources is that they exhibit about an order of magnitude higher brightness than broad-area semiconductor lasers....

High Brightness Electron Sources

The production of unprecedentedly high brightness electron beams is a critical aspect of many applications, from free-electron lasers to advanced accelerators. The preferred method for obtaining these beams is the radiofrequency photoinjector. The physics and technology aspects of this device are reviewed here, along prospects for future progress in high-brightness beam development.

Functional and Performance Characteristics of Soluble Silicates in Deinking. Part I: Alkaline Deinking of Newsprint/Magazine

The function(s) of soluble silicates in repulpinghashing and flotation deinking of waste newsprint/magazine were investigated extensively, under optimized conditions. During repulping/washing, silicate ’s response was characteristic of a buffer and a detergent. It was responsible for a 3.0% increase in I S 0 brightness. In repulping/flotation, silicate accounted for a 6.1% increase in I S 0 bri...

High Current and High Brightness Electron Sources

The development of high current, high brightness electron guns is critically important for free-electron laser and energy recovery linear-accelerator light source facilities. In this paper, we will review the technical requirements of such projects and the status of on-going research throughout the community including results of emittance measurements and high current beam performance.
