Brightness

Dissolves in alkaline solutions to give purple-red solutions which are precipitated as lakes by heavy metal salts. Occurs naturally as a glucoside in madder but produced synthetically by fusing anthraquinone-2-sulphonic acid with NaOH and some KCIO3. Applied to the mordanted fibre. Al(OH)3 gives a bright red lake, Cr(OH)3 a red lake, FefOH) ... 

NH4)3Moi2PO40 H2O. The bright yellow precipitate formed from a phosphate, am monium molybdate and HNO3 in solution. Used as a test for phosphates. 

It is the simplest compound containing the -N = N- chromophore, but is of no practical importance since it lacks affinity for fibres. Normally it exists in the most stable trans form, but may be converted to a less stable, bright red as form, m.p. 71 -S C by ultra-violet irradiation. Cis to irans isomerization occurs rapidly on heating. 

Brownian movement The rapid and random movement of particles of a colloidal sol, observed brightly lit against a dark ground. First observed with a pollen suspension. The Brownian movement is due to the impact on the dispersed particles of the molecules of the dispersion medium. As the particles increase in size, the probability of unequal bombardment from different sides decreases, and eventually collisions from all sides cancel out and the Brownian movement becomes imperceptible at a particle size of about 3-4/z. From the characteristics of the movement, Perrin calculated Avogadro s number L. 

Non-soap greases using finely divided solids as thickeners are useful as lubricants at elevated temperatures. Materials used include organO Clays such as dimethyldioctyl-decyl-ammonium bentonite (Bentone greases) or selected dyestuffs which produce brightly coloured greases. 

Bright yellow needles m.p. 45 C, b.p. 2 4°C. Prepared together with 4-nitrophenol by careful nitration of phenol. Sodium sulphide reduces it to 2-aminophenol which is used in dyestuffs and photographic processes.

The reflection tomograms (c) show the axial hole in the Plexiglas specimen, but also a real discontinuity in the A/5i -alloy. The internal discontinuity is located 6 mm from the edge, 50° from the axial hole and its dimension is about 1-2 mm. This may be an inclusion or a porosity (void). Multiple reflections from the measurement were ignored in the calculation of the Plexiglas tomogram (left). This is seen as a bright circle.

The experimental investigations are carried out in order to get an idea about the variations of the visibility of the indications during practical inspections. The specimen where a test piece with spare eroded artificial defects (Width 25 pm depth d = 30, 60, 120 pm) and other specimen with natural cracks, a forged steering lever and a weld. As an example, in Fig 4 the steering lever with 2 cracks can be seen and below the dependance on the visibilty of a weak indication and a part of the bright indications on the field strenght H.

A newer and perhaps more useful application of ellipsometry to Langmuir films is their lateral characterization via ellipsometric microscopy [146], A simple modification of the nuU ellipsometer allows one to image features down to 10-/im resolution. Working with a fixed polarizer and analyzer, some domains are at extinction while others are not and appear bright. This approach requires no fluorescent label and can be applied to systems on reflective supports. 

Figure Al.7.7. Atomic-resolution, empty-state STM image (100 A x 100 A) of the reconstmcted Si(l 11)-7 7 surface. The bright spots correspond to a top layer of adatoms, with 12 adatoms per unit cell (courtesy of Alison Baski).

Figure Al.7.14. 3.4 mn x 3.4 mn STM images of 1-docosanol physisorbed onto a graphite surface in solution. This image reveals the hydrogen-bonding alcohol molecules assembled in lamellar fashion at the liquid-solid interface. Each bright circular region is attributed to the location of an individual hydrogen...

LIF is also used witii liquid and solid samples. For example, LIF is used to detect lJO ions in minerals the uranyl ion is responsible for the bright green fluorescence given off by minerals such as autunite and opal upon exposure to UV light [23],... 

Figure A3.10.10 STM image (55 x 55 mn ) of a Si(lOO) surface exposed to molecular bromine at 800 K. The dark areas are etch pits on the terraces, while the bright rows that run perpendicular to the terraces are Si dimer chains. The dimer chains consist of Si atoms released from terraces and step edges during etching [28],...
