Cavity axial

Although 0-switching produces shortened pulses, typically 10-200 ns long, if we require pulses in the picosecond (10 s) or femtosecond (10 s) range the technique of mode locking may be used. This technique is applicable only to multimode operation of a laser and involves exciting many axial cavity modes but with the correct amplitude and phase relationship. The amplitudes and phases of the various modes are normally quite random.

The copper calorimeter works on the principle of the mixture calorimeter in place of the calorimetric liquid there is a copper block with good thermal insulation, provided with an axial cavity for receiving the warmer or cooler substance under investigation. The change in the temperature of the block is measured with the aid of thermocouples the good thermal conductivity of copper ensures that all parts of it are always at practically the same temperature. With a view to the best thermal in-FlG 3- sulation, it is contained in a double-walled vessel which is evacuated and silvered. 

The etalon spacing can be adjusted in practice so that only one axial cavity mode within the gain bandwidth — a(v) > y/L satisfies both of Eqs. 9.18, as shown in Fig. 9.15. Moreover, can be varied to select successive cavity axial modes at will.

The cavity of a laser may resonate in various ways during the process of generation of radiation. The cavity, which we can regard as a rectangular box with a square cross-section, has modes of oscillation, referred to as cavity modes, which are of two types, transverse and axial (or longitudinal). These are, respectively, normal to and along the direction of propagation of the laser radiation. 

For a cavity length of, for example, 50 cm the axial mode separation is 300 MFIz... 

In practice the laser can operate only when n, in Equation (9.2), takes values such that the corresponding resonant frequency v lies within the line width of the transition between the two energy levels involved. If the active medium is a gas this line width may be the Doppler line width (see Section 2.3.2). Figure 9.3 shows a case where there are twelve axial modes within the Doppler profile. The number of modes in the actual laser beam depends on how much radiation is allowed to leak out of the cavity. In the example in Figure 9.3 the output level has been adjusted so that the so-called threshold condition allows six axial modes in the beam. The gain, or the degree of amplification, achieved in the laser is a measure of the intensity. 

Each axial mode has its own characteristic pahem of nodal planes and the frequency separation Av between modes is given by Equation (9.4). If the radiation in the cavity can be modulated at a frequency of cjld then the modes of the cavity are locked both in amplitude and phase since t, the time for the radiation to make one round-trip of the cavity (a distance 2d), is given by...

Relatively small-diameter rotors allow rotative speeds of several thousand rev/min. Unhke the straight-lobe rotary machine, it has male and female rotors whose rotation causes the axial progression of successive sealed cavities. These machines are staged with intercoolers when such an... 

The rotor of the Moineau-type positive displacement motor has a helical design. The axial wave number of the rotor is one less than the axial wave number for the stator for a given chamber. This allows the formation of a series of fluid cavities as the rotor rotates. The number of stator wave lengths n and the number of rotor wave lengths n per chamber are related by [79,86]... 

Globular proteins are compact, are roughly spherical or ovoid in shape, and have axial ratios (the ratio of their shortest to longest dimensions) of not over 3. Most enzymes are globular proteins, whose large internal volume provides ample space in which to construct cavities of the specific shape, charge, and hy-drophobicity or hydrophilicity required to bind substrates and promote catalysis. By contrast, many structural proteins adopt highly extended conformations. These fibrous proteins possess axial ratios of 10 or more. 

Ad(ii) On catalysts with pores and cavities of molecular dimensions, exemplified by mordenite and ZSM-5, shape selectivity provides constraints of the transition state on the S 2 path in either preventing axial attack as that of methyl oxonium by isobutanol in mordenite that has to "turn the comer" when switching the direction of fli t through the main channel to the perpendicular attack of methyl oxonium in the side-pocket, or singling out a selective approach from several possible ones as in the chiral inversion in ethanol/2-pentanol coupling in HZSM-5 (14). Both of these types of spatial constraints result in superior selectivities to similar reactions in solutions.
