    摘要: An improved AC susceptometer and methodology for its use which is particularly suitable for the characterization of the properties of superconducting materials. Added to the circuitry of a conventional AC susceptometer is frequency domain analytical equipment for measuring the induced magnetic response. The addition of frequency domain measuring equipment permits the determination of the harmonic components of the induced magnetic response. The measurement of the harmonic components of the response also provides novel methodology for studying the phenomena of flux penetration, flux pinning and movement and permits the measurement of parameters such as lower critical field, critical temperatures, and the irreversibility line.

    摘要: Apparatus and methodology for mapping the superconductive properties of a sample of superconducting material. The material is cooled so that it is a mixed state and an alternating magnetic field is induced in a portion of the sample to be tested. The harmonic component of the induced alternating magnetic response is measured at a location proximate to the point of induction. As the inducing and measuring devices are displaced relative to the sample the measured amplitude of the harmonic component is stored in suitable storage means as a function of location in the sample. Thus, a map of the superconducting properties of the sample may be generated.

    摘要: Electronic displays including CRTs and projection TV (PTV), field emission displays (FED), plasma and electroluminescent (EL) displays, all of whom involve the use of luminescent materials (active displays) for the transfer of information to an audience. The phosphor material used in these displays comprises doped nanocrystals; tiny, separated particles of the order of 100 angstroms or less and thus exhibiting quantum-confined properties. These quantum-confined particles of certain luminescent materials when doped with an activator yield ultra-fast and efficient phosphors. The resultant displays will possess high brightness and high resolution. In addition, certain of the displays will exhibit digital control and increased gray scale.

    摘要: A glowing device comprises a substrate which is substantially transparent to radiation in a first spectral region and supports a nanoparticle or nanocrystal active layer, which is a thin layer constituted of separated tiny particles with nanometer dimensions, typically 100 .ANG. or less in size. When the nanocrystal layer comprises one of certain luminescent materials activated with certain activators, the layer when excited will efficiently emit radiation characteristic of the activator. Since the particles making up the active layer are very small, the layer can be made very thin, of the order of 1000 .ANG. or less. With this small thickness, the layer will be substantially transparent to radiation except for a narrow range of radiation capable of being absorbed by the active layer and thus capable of exciting the nanocrystal layer. When thus excited, the active layer will emit radiation in a narrow wavelength range. When the incident radiation extends over a broad spectral region, then part of the spectral energy will be absorbed and converted to the radiation characteristic of the nanocrystal layer, and the rest will pass through the nanocrystal layer and substantially transparent substrate, which to an observer will appear to glow with light in the narrow wavelength range. By providing multiple layers of nanocrystals, each responsive to a different part of the spectrum, a larger part of the incident radiation energy will be converted to glowing light.

    摘要: An efficient and ultrafast sensor for X-ray and UV radiation based on doped nanocrystals. These doped nanocrystals consist preferably of impurity-activator doped wide band gap II-VI semiconductors. They yield high efficiency and short recombination time radiation-sensitive phosphors which in response to radiation emit visible light easily detected by conventional sensors such as Si sensors. The combination of pulsed UV/X-ray sources with efficient and ultrafast sensors will yield sensors with increased signal to noise ratio. In a preferred embodiment, thin films of doped nanocrystals are used for generating visible radiation, which can be imaged with a conventional Si-based camera. Other applications also include the use of doped nanocrystals of piezoelectric materials to sense pressure, of pyroelectric materials to sense heat, and of ferroelectric materials to sense electric fields.
