Journal ArticleDOI
Differential etch rates in z-cut LiNbO3 for variable HF/HNO3 concentrations
TL;DR: In this article, the etch rates of the +z and -z faces of single crystal lithium niobate immersed in HF and HNO3 acid mixtures of varying ratios were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tagging in combinatorial chemistry: the use of coloured and fluorescent beads
Bryan J. Egner,Sunil Rana,Helen E. K. Smith,Nathalie Bouloc,Jeremy G. Frey,William S. Brocklesby,Mark Bradley +6 more
TL;DR: Fluorescent confocal microscopy is a practical and very sensitive (fmol bead(-1)) and non-destructive tagging technique for use in combinatorial chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fabrication and optical properties of lead‐germanate glasses and a new class of optical fibers doped with Tm3+
J. Wang,J.R. Lincoln,William S. Brocklesby,R.S. Deol,C. J. Mackechnie,A. Pearson,Anne C. Tropper,D.C. Hanna,David N. Payne +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new class of optical fibers based on lead germanate glass is presented, where the maximum vibrational frequency of this glass is intermediate between silica and zirconium barium lanthanum aluminum fluoride glass, causing a beneficial change in nonradiative decay.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low phonon-energy glasses for efficient 1.3 mu m optical fibre amplifiers
Daniel W. Hewak,R.S. Deol,Ji Wang,G. Wylangowski,J. A. Mederios Neto,B.N. Samson,Richard Ian Laming,William S. Brocklesby,David N. Payne,Animesh Jha,Marcel Poulain,S. Otero,Santiago Suriñach,Maria Dolors Baró +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, the results of an experimental and theoretical study to compare the attributes of Pr3+-doped sulphide, chloride, mixed halide, fluoride and chlorotellurite glasses for 1.3µm fiber amplifiers are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Local structures of rare-earth ions in glasses: the ‘crystal-chemistry’ approach
TL;DR: In this article, a modified-random-network (MRN) model is proposed to evaluate the rare-earth local structure in glass based on the MRN model in glass structure and three influential factors are summarized, concerning the coordination number, the regularity of the site around the ion.
