Journal ArticleDOI
Brillouin Scattering in a Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Near the Cholesteric-Isotropic Transition
H. Rosen,Y. R. Shen +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Brillouin scattering to study the propagation of hypersonic waves in a cholesteric medium at the liquid-to-liquid-crystal tramition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-focusing: From transient to quasi-steady-state
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors made quantitative measurements on the characteristics of self-focusing varying from transient to quasi-steady state, and identified the mechanism responsible for the limiting diameter of the self-focused beam in their experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Second-harmonic generation in atomic vapor with picosecond laser pulses
TL;DR: In this article, a theory of a dc-field-induced second-harmonic generation (SHG) model is developed that takes into account the time development of the dc electric field in detail.
Journal ArticleDOI
End-functionalized polymer adsorption study by evanescent ellipsometry
TL;DR: In this article, the total amount of adsorbed polystyrene with a zwitterionic (SO 3 − (CH 2 ) 3 N + Me 2 (Ch 2 ) 2 ) end-group was measured.
Journal ArticleDOI
A crystalline Langmuir monolayer designed as a template for selective intercalation of water soluble α-amino acids
Coralie Alonso,Richard W. Gurney,Ran Eliash,Seok Cheol Hong,Y. R. Shen,Torben R. Jensen,Kristian Kjaer,Oleg Konovalov,Meir Lahav,Leslie Leiserowitz +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the capacity of the cholesteryl-l-glutamate (CLG) thin films to recognize and incorporate amino acids from the subphase was investigated when deposited on pure water and on saturated solutions of water soluble amino acids.
