Experimental evidence is presented that shows that the conical emission often found surrounding a near-resonant laser beam after it passes through an atomic vapor is due to nondegenerate four-wave mixing enhanced by the ac Stark effect. We demonstrate self-trapping of a pulsed dye-laser beam in sodium vapor for wavelengths 0.04 to 10 A shorter than that of the D(2) resonance and show that the f...

The synthesis of a conformal poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) layer on Si nanowires was demonstrated using a pulsed electrodeposition technique. N-type Si nanowire (SiNWs) arrays were synthesized using an electroless metal-assisted chemical etching technique. The dependence of the SiNW reflection on the concentration of the AgNO3 solution was identified. A reflection of less than 2% ove...

We propose a combination of electromagnetically induced transparency-Raman and pulsed spectroscopy techniques to accurately cancel frequency shifts arising from electromagnetically induced transparency fields in forbidden optical clock transitions of alkaline earth atoms. At appropriate detunings, time-separated laser pulses are designed to trap atoms in coherent superpositions while eliminatin...

Deterioration of reinforced concrete members and their repair methods have been reported in various concrete published reports. Electrodeposition method is one of these repair methods for repairing deteriorated concrete members using an electrochemical mechanism. The purposes of the electrodeposition method are to fill cracks in concrete and to coat the concrete surface by electrodeposits of ch...

The work presented in this paper proposes an approach to reduce the common mode voltage at the output of matrix converters when a direct torque control scheme is employed to drive a permanent magnet synchronous motor. A mathematical analysis of the common mode voltage at the output of matrix converters is firstly carried out which is then corroborated by simulation results. Based on this analys...

The superconducting properties of hierarchical nanostructured samples Pb–In alloys have been studied by the measurement dynamic susceptibility χ(T) temperature dependence. Symmetric with different shapes and sizes were formed on a brass metallic net cathode-metal electrodeposition programmed pulsing current. Two kinds dependence observed in synthesized structures. first kind was broad supercond...

High-quality performance of catalysts is increasingly required to meet industry exigencies. However, chemical synthesis often insufficient maximize the potential properties catalysts. On other hand, electrochemical has arisen as a promising alternative overcome these limitations and provide precise control in preparation In this sense, work involved well-controlled catalyst based on platinum na...

The objective of this work is to study the effect of two key factors external magnetic field and applied current density during template-based electrodeposition of nickel nanowires using an electrode distance of 20 mm. Morphology, length, crystallite size and crystallographic characterization of the grown nickel nanowires at an electrode distance of 20mm are presented. For this electrode distan...
