It is interesting if a variation of this axis can take place only in intensity, in the simplest theoretical case of only two rigid body dynamics. This paper presents two positions of the Moon during its monthly orbit, where a sudden variation of Earth’s rotation axis in intensity can take place. The duration of this phenomenon is limited in time, maybe an instant or a day, and then a vortex can appear.展开更多

LiYF_4:Ln^(3+)(Ce^(3+),Eu^(3+)) nanocrystals were fabricated by solvothermal method. Under UV excitation, they could emit visible light. In order to improve the luminescence intensity, the method of co-doping LiYF_4 nanocrystals with Sc was adopted. Sc^(3+) ions could reduce the lattice expansion caused by the doping of Ce^(3+) or Eu^(3+) whose ionic radius was larger than Y^(3+). Crystal structure of Li(Y,Sc)F_4:Ln^(3+) kept much more stable and the luminescence intensity could be significantly enhanced when the concentration of Sc was a moderate value. Thermoluminescence was employed to analyze the electron traps in Li(Y,Sc)F_4:Ce^(3+). Results suggested that the suppression of the generation of electron traps with the co-doping of Sc contributed to the enhancement of luminescence intensity of LiYF_4:Ce^(3+).展开更多

To validate this approach, JO parameters of Er^(3+) doped Ba BaGd_2ZnO_5/PMMA and NaYF_4/PMMA composites were calculated and in a good agreement with the other glass and crystal. The spontaneous radiative transition probability, branching ratio, and radiative lifetime of the optical transitions were calculated by using the Judd-Ofelt theory. Intense near-infrared emission at 1553 nm was observed under 980 nm laser diode excitation at room temperature. The samples possessing high full-width at half-maximum reach 85 nm have potential application in broadband optical amplifier.展开更多
文摘It is well known that a variation in the direction of Earth’s rotation axis is a real astronomical phenomenon, named nutation. It is interesting if a variation of this axis can take place only in intensity, in the simplest theoretical case of only two rigid body dynamics. This paper presents two positions of the Moon during its monthly orbit, where a sudden variation of Earth’s rotation axis in intensity can take place. The duration of this phenomenon is limited in time, maybe an instant or a day, and then a vortex can appear.
