Brillouin light-scattering from polymer gels

چکیده
The experimental results of the Brillouin shift and width for poly(vinyl alcohol) and poly(vinyl chloride) gels as a function of gel network volume fraction have been analysed using the theory of Marqusee and Deutch for Brillouin light-scattering from polymer gels, incorporated with a new plausible assumption relating the speed of sound in the gel network with its volume fraction. It has been found that the essential features of the behaviour of the Brillouin shift and width are well described by the theory over most of the range of the volume fraction.

Brillouin light-scattering from poly(acrylic acid) hydrogels
The Brillouin shift and width for poly(acrylic acid) hydrogels have been obtained as a function of gel network volume fraction using a five-pass Fabry-Pdrot interferometer. A conspicuous peak has been observed in the Brillouin shift at high volume fraction. The results are discussed in the light of a theory for the Brillouin light-scattering from gels proposed by Marqusee and Deutch-

2014 The Brillouin shift and width for poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogels of two different crosslink densities have been obtained as a function of gel network volume fraction using a five-pass Fabry-Pérot interferometer. The results are discussed in the light of a theory for Brillouin lightscattering from gels proposed recently by J. A. Marqusee and J. M. Deutch. J. Physique Lett. 46 (1985) L-887 L-...

متن کاملThermal Effects Study on Stimulated Brillouin Light Scattering in Photonic Crystal Fiber
we investigate the temperature-dependences of the Brillouin frequency shift in three different kind of single-mode fibers using a heterodyne method for sensing temperature. Positive dependences coefficients of 0.77, 0.56 and 1.45MHz/0C are demonstrated for 25 km long single-mode fiber, 10 km long non-zero dispersion shifted fiber and 100 m photonic crystal fiber, respectively. The results indic...
متن کاملComplementary use of small-angle neutron scattering and dynamic light scattering studies for structure analysis and dynamics of polymer gels
Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) have been complementarily employed in order to investigate the structure and dynamics of slide-ring (SR) gels, a class of novel polymer gels having advanced mechanical properties. SR gels consist of long flexible polymer chains and movable cross-links along the polymer chain. It is demonstrated that complementary use is ne...
