چکیده

changed under ambient condition for at least 40 h, time to which these measurements were carried out. To investigate the absorption behavior as a function of time, the absorption spectrum at 100 OC was taken at regular intervals over 40 h for poled/cured A204/DR1. An absorption peak at A, , = 508 nm existed before poling/curing. After poling/curing &shifta to 493 nm with a decrease of absorbance. During the next 40 h, A, , shifted back toward longer wavelengths with a slight decrease in absorbance (Figure 4). It is important to note that the dye absorption spectrum shape is similar to the spectrum obtained before the curing cycle. This confirms that the azo dye left in the cured film has not degraded during the curing cycle. For A204/ASD, the absorption spectrum was also taken regularly at 100 OC over 40 h. Immediately after poling/curing, a decrease in absorbance was observed. The absorption peak of the disperse orange 3 chromophore (Am, = 480 nm) shifted toward shorter wavelength, A, , = 464 nm (Figure 5). During the next 40 h, the absorption spectrum remained unchanged. This result suggests that the dye/polymer system did not degrade or sublime throughout the whole period of thermal treatment. In conclusion, we have shown that a guest-host system based on cross-linked phenylsiloxane polymer and alkoxysilane dye has excellent room-temperature stability and a slow decay at 100 OC in a period of 40 h. The stability of second-order susceptibility achieved in this work is limited by the NLO chromophore degradation temperature. Curing at higher temperatures is clearly expected to lead to higher stability. However the A204/ASD thin film showed a much more stable second-order response compared to A204/DR1.

The Role of Ethanol, Methyltriphenylphosphonium Bromide and Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide as Directing Agents in Hydrothermal Synthesis of Aluminosilicate Molecular Sieve (ZSM-5) and Its Morphologies

Zeolite ZSM-5 presents a great source of interest in catalysis because of its shape selective properties. The absence of a relationship between the template size and shape of the structure generated during the synthesis of zeolites is illustrated by the case of ZSM-5. In this study, we have investigated the role of ethanol, methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (MTPBr) and cetyltrimethylammonium b...

Application of Zeotype SAPO-34 Molecular Sieve as a Selective Adsorbent for Separation of Ethylene from Ethane

The process of ethylene production from ethane dehydrogenation is one of the interesting processes in the field of conversion the petroleum light gases to the valuable products. In this process, the outlet gaseous product is a combination of ethylene, ethane and hydrogen. Effective separation techniques are required for separation of ethylene from unreacted ethane. Here a new adsorbent approach...

On the performance evaluation of hybrid and mono-class sensor arrays in selective detection of VOCs: A comparative study

Detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) using non-selective sensor requires an array of multiplexed sensors followed by pattern recognition approach. Based on this concept, we compare three different approaches for selective detection of ethanol, ammonia, toluene, acetone and chloroform at different concentrations using non-selective sensors which are: (a) an array of sensors operated at...

Analysis of the Sensitivity of K-Type Molecular Sieve-Deposited MWNTs for the Detection of SF6 Decomposition Gases under Partial Discharge

Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is widely utilized in gas-insulated switchgear (GIS). However, part of SF6 decomposes into different components under partial discharge (PD) conditions. Previous research has shown that the gas responses of intrinsic and 4 Å-type molecular sieve-deposited multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) to SOF2 and SO2F2, two important decomposition components of SF6, are not obvio...
