Liquid alignment

As a result of that study, the combination of covariance processing and NUS afforded a decrease in experimental time by a factor of two relative to linear sampling and covariance processing. It even shortened the total acquisition time by a factor of four as compared to conventionally sampled data and FT processing. Again, enhanced resolution and improved sensitivity were observed. The proof of concept was predicted to be amenable to other homonuclear 2D NMR experiments on liquid, aligned or solid samples. [Pg.302]

A nematic liquid crystal cell, based on Merck Licrilite E202, was used in these experiments. The rod like liquid crystal molecules preferentially aligned themselves with each other and to an alignment surface in the liquid crystal device. Any birefringence. An, was given as the difference between the two orthogonal refractive indices. As a consequence, any resulting... [Pg.680]

SAMs are generating attention for numerous potential uses ranging from chromatography [SO] to substrates for liquid crystal alignment [SI]. Most attention has been focused on future application as nonlinear optical devices [49] however, their use to control electron transfer at electrochemical surfaces has already been realized [S2], In addition, they provide ideal model surfaces for studies of protein adsorption [S3]. [Pg.397]

An aligned monodomain of a nematic liquid crystal is characterized by a single director n. However, in imperfectly aligned or unaligned samples the director varies tlirough space. The appropriate tensor order parameter to describe the director field is then... [Pg.2557]

Otlier possibilities for observing phase transitions are offered by suspensions of non-spherical particles. Such systems can display liquid crystalline phases, in addition to tire isotropic liquid and crystalline phases (see also section C2.2). First, we consider rod-like particles (see [114, 115], and references tlierein). As shown by Onsager [116, 117], sufficiently elongated particles will display a nematic phase, in which tire particles have a tendency to align parallel to... [Pg.2689]

These advantages include (a) Speed of assembly, (b) Well-fitting joints as these are made to accurate standards and joints of any given size are thus interchangeable, (c) Accurate alignment of assembly, for the use of incorrectly bored corks is obviated, d) Freedom from contamination of liquids by cork and rubber. [Pg.42]

The drop in pressure when a stream of gas or liquid flows over a surface can be estimated from the given approximate formula if viscosity effects are ignored. The example calculation reveals that, with the sorts of gas flows common in a concentric-tube nebulizer, the liquid (the sample solution) at the end of the innermost tube is subjected to a partial vacuum of about 0.3 atm. This vacuum causes the liquid to lift out of the capillary, where it meets the flowing gas stream and is broken into an aerosol. For cross-flow nebulizers, the vacuum created depends critically on the alignment of the gas and liquid flows but, as a maximum, it can be estimated from the given formula. [Pg.141]

A stream of a liquid solution can be broken up into a spray of fine drops from which, under the action of aligned nozzles (skimmers) and vacuum regions, the solvent is removed to leave a beam of solute molecules, ready for ionization. The collimation of the initial spray into a linearly directed assembly of droplets, which become clusters and then single molecules, gives rise to the term particle beam interface. [Pg.393]

Normalized back-scattering yields of ions from Pb near the melting point, with the incident beam and scattered beam directed along <101 > crystal axes (double alignment) curve a, 295 K curve b, 506 K curve c, 561 K curve d, 600.5 K curve e, 600.8 K. Spectrum d is fitted by a sum of contributions M, from a liquid surface layer, and I, from a partially ordered transition layer [3.133]. Fig. 3.52.

Nazem [31] has reported that mesophase pitch exhibits shear-thinning behavior at low shear rates and, essentially, Newtonian behavior at higher shear rates. Since isotropic pitch is Newtonian over a wide range of shear rates, one might postulate that the observed pseudoplasticity of mesophase is due to the alignment of liquid crystalline domains with increasing shear rate. Also, it has been reported that mesophase pitch can exhibit thixotropic behavior [32,33]. It is not clear, however, if this could be attributed to chemical changes within the pitch or, perhaps, to experimental factors. [Pg.129]

Liquid crystal displays depend upon the reorientation of the director , the defining alignment vector of a population of liquid crystalline molecules, by a localised applied electric field between two glass plates, which changes the way in which incident light is reflected directional rubbing of the glass surface imparts a... [Pg.296]

The only human actions important in more than 50% of the BWR IPEs are manual depressurization, containment venting, initiation of standby liquid control (SLC), and system alignment for decay heat removal. In PWRs, only switch over to recirculation, feed-and-blecd, and the actions associated with depressurization and cooldown are important in more than 50% of the... [Pg.183]
