We have successfully added ps temporal resolution to scanning tunneling microscope (STM) light emission spectroscopy. STM light emission spectra of Sb2Te3 were measured in the configuration that the tip sample gap of the STM is irradiated by a pair of pump and probe laser pulses with a duration less than 2 ps each, and were analyzed as a function of optical delay time between the pump and probe...

The presented paper gives a general overview of studies of field emission from carbon nanoclusters. The special attention has been given to the study of emission processes in the strong and super strong electric fields from graphene-like structures. The direct experiments have confirmed the phenomena of the low threshold field emission and explosive emission from carbon nanoclusters. Experiment...

in this research, b4c-ni cermet coating was sprayed on the surface of 4130 steel from b4c and ni feed-stockpowders using high velocity oxy-fuel (hvof) method. in order to characterize the tribological behavior of thecoating, ball on disk wear tests were done at the ambient temperature and under the loads of 1, 3 and 5 n.phase analysis of the coating after spraying was studied by x-ray diffracto...

Sites of uptake, storage, and metabolism of [18F]fluorodopamine and excretion of [18F]fluorodopamine and its metabolites were visualized using positron emission tomographic (PET) scanning after intravenous injection of the tracer into anesthetized dogs. Radioactivity was concentrated in the renal pelvis, heart, liver, spleen, salivary glands, and gall bladder. Uptake of 18F by the heart resulte...

This paper reports the LIBS studies on elemental composition detection and identification by employing a femtosecond (fs) fiber laser. High quality LIBS spectra were obtained in air using near-infrared fs fiber laser coupled with a broadband high sensitivity spectrometer without gating control. Specific ion and neutral emission lines of different materials have been characterized by line scanni...
