I report a simple method to correct the saturation effect in absorption spectra measured in total electron yield (TEY) mode. It does not require additional measurements of the X-ray penetration depth. In order to check the reliability of the method, X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) spectra for polycrystalline Fe were measured at two different incident angles, and then processed with the method. The two resultant XMCD spectra were identical, and their sum rule analysis produced the ratios of orbital magnetic moment to spin magnetic moment, which were very close to the well-known value.

Via THz Time domain spectroscopy, the characterization of high conductive n-type, 1.31Ω cm silicon can be measured by directly analyzing the multiple reflections using Fabry-Perot theory. The magnitude and phase difference of total transmission show good agreement between theoretical and experimental values over a 2.5 THz frequency range with complex index of refraction and power absorption. The measured absorption and dispersion are strongly frequency-dependent, and all of the results are well fit by a Cole-Davidson type distribution.

Authors propose a new technique using polyethylene film instead of sodium chloride window as a cell material. Nujol mulls, liquids and aqueous solutions are sandwitched between two pieces of polyethylene film which are held between cardboards. Ordinary lead or stainless steel spacers could be used if exact cell thickness is desired. A more elaborate cell can be assembled by injecting samples between two pieces of polyethylene film which are placed between sodium chloride windows of ordinary demountable liquid cell. The absorption bands due to polyethylene and Nujol are compensated by placing the polyethylene film of suitable thickness in the reference beam. The absorption bands due to solvents such as water can also be compensated by the polyethylene film cell sandwitched solvent of suitable thickness in the reference beam. This method would be a simple new technique. Especially this technique may offer a new helpful way for the investigation of the state of substances in aqueous system. Using this technique, authors have observed the appearance of an absorption bands at 3.2 micron, in the spectrum of phenol in aqueous solution, that is absent in the spectrum of phenol in benzene solution. The same absorption band also has been observed in the spectra of aqueous formaldehyde solution and aqueous polyvinyl alcohol solution, where the absorption bands due to polyethylene and water are compensated. Although it may be regarded that this absorption band is related to the intermolecular interaction between water and the solute having OH group, that is hydrogen bonding. The exact assignment of this absorption band is out of this work.

The behavior of benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-dione (BPQ) in aqueous solution and its interaction with native DNA was investigated using conventional absorption and linear dichroism (LD) spectroscopy. The appearance of a broad absorption maximum at long wavelengths and its proportional relationship to solvent polarizability suggested that BPQ adopts a aggregated state for all solutions examined. Disappearance of this absorption band at higher temperatures in aqueous solution also supported BPQ aggregation. When associated with DNA absorption spectral properties were essentially the same as that in aqueous solution. However, two isosbestic wavelengths were found in the concentration-dependent absorption spectrum of the BPQ-DNA complex, suggesting the presence of at least two or more DNA-bound BPQ species. Both species produced $LD^r$ spectra whose magnitude in BPQ absorption region is larger or comparable to that in the DNA absorption region, suggesting that the molecular BPQ plane is near perpendicular relative to the local DNA helical axis. Therefore, BPQ molecules are aligned along the DNA stem in both DNA-aggregated BPQ species.

방식도막의 수명에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 물의 흡수과정을 quartz crystal microbalance법 및 임피던스 원리를 이용하여 연구하였다. 도막에 있어서 물의 흡수량과 전해질 농도 변화에 따른 도막의 capacitance를 조사하였다 방식도막에 대한 물의 흡수는 삼투압 작용에 의해서 이루어지고, 흡수 초기단계에서는 도막두께가 얇을수록 흡수량이 많은 것을 알 수 있었다 그리고 도막을 구성하고 있는 수지의 종류 및 결합 가교밀도에 따라서 흡수성이 큰 영향을 받는다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 방식도막에 있어서는 접촉하는 전해질 용액의 농도 변화에 따라 흡$\cdot$탈수 현상이 발생하였으며, 같은 종류의 도막이라도 도막두께가 얇을수록 탈수현상에 따른 capacitance의 증가폭이 큰 것으로 나타났다

알부민 수용액(pH 7)에 대한 초음파 흡수 메카니즘을 규명하기 위해 주파수 $0.2{\sim}1,000\;MHz$에 걸쳐 흡수특성측정을 하였다. 관측된 단백질 알부민 수용액의 흡수스펙트럼은 David-Cole함수의 거울상으로 가정한 완화시간의 분포함수와 일치하였다. 이 분포함수는 BSA분자의 수화평형에 의한 것이고 수화평형에 의해 넓은 주파수영역에 걸쳐 완화현상이 일어난다.

In situ measurement of infrared absorption spectra has been performed during low-temperature plasma-enhanced chemical vapor depositiion of silicon-oxide films using tetramethoxysilane as a silicon source. Several absorption bands due to the reactant molecules are clearly observed before deposition. In the plasma, these bands completely disappear at any oxygen mixing ratio. This result shows that most of the tetramethoxysilane molecules are dissociated in the rf plasma, even C-H bonds. Existence of Si-H bonds in vapor phase and/or on the film surface during deposition has been found by infrared diagnostics. We observed both a decrease in Si-OH absorption and an increase in Si-O-Si after plasma off, which means the dehydration condensation reaction continues after deposition. The rate of this reaction is much slower than the deposition ratio of the films.

Fiber ring laser based intra-cavity absorption spectroscopic sensor has great potential for high sensitivity gas detection. Using the rate equations and propagation equations, we investigated theoretically factors that affect the sensitivity of such fiber ring laser sensors and determined the optimal design parameters and conditions for significant enhancement of the system sensitivity. Experiments have been conducted to determine the sensitivity enhancement performance. The results showed a factor of 25 ~ 30 in sensitivity enhancement in the experimental system, agreeing well with the theoretical expectations. Experiments on acetylene detection have also been carried out and the results showed that the ring cavity significantly increases the signal absorption and that high sensitivity can be obtained for gas detection.

A superabsorbent hydrogel (SAH) can absorb and retain water weighing more than a hundred times of their dry weight because of their three-dimensional hydrophilic structure. To fabricate an SAH, itaconic acid (IA) and vinyl sulfonic acid (VSA) were subjected to radical polymerization in an aqueous solution, wherein IA and VSA were neutralized, and then, a crosslinker and a thermal initiator were added in sequence. The structure of poly(IA-co-VSA) was characterized using attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. We also studied the changes in the absorption properties of the SAH composites according to the polymerization temperature, degree of neutralization, type and content of the initiator used, and type and content of the crosslinker used. Thus, we could determine the effects of some synthetic factors on the absorption properties of the SAH.

The photoisomerization of 5-styryl-1,3-dimethyluracil is studied with nanosecond laser flash photolysis technique at room temperature. The laser flash photolysis of E-isomer produces the transient absorption spectrum regarded as the triplet-triplet absorption, but the transient absorption of Z-isomer does not show the typical decay curve, probably due to the facile photocyclization reaction during the laser flash photolysis. Using the energy transfer method on nanosecond laser spectroscopy, the energy of the lowest triplet state for E isomer is estimated to lie between 41.8 and 47 kcal/mol. The triplet lifetime for E-isomer obtained from the decay curve of the transient absorption is ca. 93ns. The $S_1 → T_1$ intersystem crossing of E-isomer on direct excitation is relatively inefficient at room temperature supporting the singlet mechanism for direct photoisomerization.
