Nd-Ni (Neodymium-Nitrogen)

Experimental lifetime determination in neutral praseodymium (Pr I) and neodymium (Nd I)

Radiative lifetime measurements have been performed, with a time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique, for 18 even-parity levels of Pr I and 15 odd-parity levels of Nd I. The new results are compared with the few experimental data available in the literature and good agreement is found. However, fragmentary knowledge of the spectra prevents reliable calculation of branching fractions a...

Influence of neodymium concentration on excitation and emission properties of Nd doped gallium oxide nanocrystalline films

In vitro Evaluation of Dentin Surface Irradiated by Neodymium-doped: Yttrium Aluminum Garnet Laser (Nd: YAG) Using Scanning Electron Microscopy

Introdouction: Dentinal hypersensitivity (DH) is one of the most painful chronic problems reported in dental offices. Various methods have been applied for the treatment of DH. However, majority of them are either ineffective or last for a short period of time. It has been reported that lasers, particularly Neodymium- doped: Yttrium Aluminum Garnet laser (Nd: YAG), can be helpful in the treatme...

OXYGEN AND NITROGEN UPTAKE IN Ni-Cr ALLOYS

Oxygen and nitrogen introduced in three Ni-Cr alloy castings were significantly varied according to both different alloys and different melting methods. The arc melting in Ar blow caused significant increases in the amounts of oxygen and nitrogen uptake, which were influenced by alloy composition. The severe gas absorption by the arc melting in Ar blow resulted in the marked occurrence of poros...

neodymium/YAG laser trabeculotomy

Laser trabeculotomies produced by directing a pulsed neodymium/YAG laser beam at specimens of human anterior chamber angle obtained post mortem or after enucleation were studied by light microscopy and by scanning and transmission electron microscopy to assess the dimensions of the openings created in the trabecular meshwork, their penetrance to the canal of Schlemm, and the extent or absence o...
