ABSTRACTBackgrounds: MD-55-2 is one of the Radiochromic film models with the sensitivity suitable for dose measurements ranging from 5 to 100 Gy.  However, this lower limit makes the film impractical for its applications in many areas such as brachytherapy source dosimetry.Materials and methods: In this project, the useful range of the film has been extended by using a multilayer film techniqu...

Semiconductor nanowires (NWs) have recently gained increasing interest due to their great potential for photovoltaics. A novel material system based on GaNP NWs is considered to be highly suitable for applications in efficient multi-junction and intermediate band solar cells. This work shows that though the bandgap energies of GaN(x)P(1-x) alloys lie within the visible spectral range (i.e., wit...

We report a facile strategy to synthesize folic acid-functionalized two-photon absorbing (TPA) nanoparticles with aggregation-induced emission for targeted cancer cell imaging using a two-photon fluorescence microscope.

Palcewska et al. first demonstrated near infrared (NIR) visual response in human volunteers upon two-photon absorption (TPA), a seminal work of 2014, and assessed the process terms wavelength- power-dependence on murine ex-vivo retinas. In present study, electroretinography (ERG) is further developed to perform complete characterization effect NIR pulse duration, energy, focal spot size respons...

A parton shower method for the photonic radiative correction is applied to the single W -boson production processes. The energy scale for the evolution of the parton shower is determined so that the correct soft-photon emission is reproduced. Photon spectra radiated from the partons are compared with those from the exact matrix elements, and show a good agreement. Possible errors due to a inapp...

Structurally related chromophores of different symmetry (dipolar, V-shaped, octupolar) are investigated and compared for elucidation of the combined role of branching and charge symmetry on absorption, photoluminescence and twophoton absorption (TPA). Their design is based on the assembly of one, two or three π-conjugated dipolar branches on a central core. Two series of branched structures obt...

background: the purpose of this study was to investigate the various gantry angle and ssd dependencies of tld and mosfet dosimeters. materials and methods: lif (mg) tld and mosfet were used in this study. dosimeter systems were calibrated and then irradiated at various gantry angle and ssd by applying 6 mv photon energy. results: based on the results, mosfet changes were found to be in 2% range...

We report the total integrated cross-section (TICS) of two-photon double ionization of helium in the photon energy range from 42 to 50 eV. Our computational procedure relies on a numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation on a square-integrable basis and subsequent projection of this solution on a set of final states describing two electrons in continuum. Close to the thresho...

By controllable synthesis of a carbon precursor and with a suitable preparation routine, a series of single-layer and single-crystalline graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with uniform size distribution were prepared from C96H30. It was found that the absorption, photoluminescence (PL) and two-photon photoluminescence (TPPL) show a high size-dependent effect with a redshift that occurs as the size gr...

Two-photon absorption (TPA) is of fundamental importance in super-resolution imaging and spectroscopy. Its nonlinear character allows for the prospect using quantum resources, such as entanglement, to improve measurement precision or gain new information on, e.g., ultrafast molecular dynamics. Here, we establish metrological properties nonclassical squeezed light sources measurements TPA cross ...
