C-SiC films with different content of SiC on stainless steel substrate were prepared with ion beam mixing. It was found that hydrogen concentrations in C-SiC coatings was higher than that in stainless steel after H$\^$+/ ion implantation followed by thermal annealing. Infrared (IR) transmission measurement was used to study the mechanism of hydrogen retention by C-SiC films. The vibrational features in the range between 400 and 3200 cm$\^$-1/ in IR transmission spectra show the Si-CH$_3$, Si-CH$_2$, Si-H, CH$_2$and CH$_3$bonds, which are responsible for retaining hydrogen.

In order to improve the brightness and chromaticity of green emitting low voltage phosphor for FED, we examine PL, PLE and CL emission characteristics of ZnGa$_{2}$O$_{4}$:Mn,O prepared in Ar and vacuum. ZnGa$_{2}$O$_{4}$:Mn,O sintered in vacuum shows about 16 times as bright as the one fabricated in Ar and excellent chromaticity. In PL emission spectra of ZnGa$_{2}$O$_{4}$:Mn,O at low temperature of 9 K, two peaks are observed at 504 nm and 513 nm. At room temperature, the two peaks are superimposed due to the lattice thermal vibrational energy, and only one peak is observed at 509 nm. From PLE measurements, it is believed that the energy levels of the host lattice and Mn ions are coexisted. The energy transfer from the host lattice to the emission center of Mn$^{2+}$ ions occurs.s.

IC 443 is famous for its interaction with nearby molecular clouds and intense H2 emission lines in infrared. Therefore, it has been studied extensively for the understanding of molecular shocks. We observed H2 mission lines toward the shock-cloud interaction regions of IC 443, known as clumps B, C, and G. The observations were performed with the InfraRed Camera (IRC) onboard a satellite AKARI over 2.5-5.0 um, where previous space observations, e.g. Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) and Spitzer, do not cover. Our AKARI observations provide spectra of sequential pure-rotational and ro-vibrational H2 emission lines. For the clumps C and G, combining with previous mid-infrared observational results, we found that the H2 level populations show a significant separation between v=0 and v=1 levels; v=1 levels are under-populated than v=0 levels, therefore, the population cannot be described by two temperature LTE model, as many people have analyzed for the shocked H2 gas. We also applied the thermal admixture model, dN(H2; T)~T^(-b) dT, with varying ortho-to-para ratios according to the temperature, to describe the level population, and obtained plausible ranges of the H2 gas density and power-law index b.

In this study, we developed a system to detect the various defects in the metallic objects using the phenomenon that the defects cause the changes of the natural resonant frequencies. Our system consists of a FFT Amp, an Auto Impact Hammer, a Hammer controller and a PC. Auto Impact Hammer creates vibrations in the metallic objects when tapped on the surface. These vibrational signals are converted to the voltage signals by an acceleration sensor attached to the metallic part surface. These analog voltage signals were fed into an ADC (analog-digital converter) and an FFT (fast fourier transform) conversion in the FFT Amp to obtain the digital data in the frequency domain. Labview graphical program was used to process the digital data from th FFT amp to display the spectrum. We compared those spectra with the standard spectrum to find the shifts in the resonant frequencies of the metal parts, and thus detecting the defects. We used PCB's acceleration sensor and TI's TMS320F28335 DSP (digital signal processor) to obtain the resolution of 2.93 Hz and to analyze the frequencies up to 44 kHz.

In the present study, firstly, the variations of the geometric parameters induced by different substituents on boroxine skeleton (symmetrically H, $CH_3$, Cl, F, $NO_2$ substituted boroxines) are investigated by using B3LYP/6-31G(d,p), RHF/6-31G(d,p), and MP2/6-31G(d,p) levels of the theory. The second objective is to estimate the substituent effect on the molecular aromaticity of boroxine derivatives using energetic and NICS criteria. Moreover, the effects of different theoretical levels on NICS values have been investigated in a systematic approach. Lastly, a rotational analysis has been performed to investigate the effect of rotation around the B-Me and B-$NO_2$ bonds on total energy of the system. It has been found that electron withdrawing substituents contribute the aromaticity of boroxine affirmatively. Conversely, electron donors make the system less aromatic. Also, the theoretical vibrational spectra for these boroxine derivatives are presented and compared with the experimental data from the literature.

Fourier transform Raman spectra of methyl red adsorbed on untreated and pretreated ${\gamma}$-alumina and silicaalumina calcined at 900 $^{\circ}C$ under 1 atm steam flowing were recorded. Spectral analysis shows that the active species adsorbed on ${\gamma}$-alumina was to be deprotonated methyl red, and on silica-alumina to be di-protonated. This indicates that ${\gamma}$-alumina adapted in this work holds Bronsted basicity, and silica-alumina Bronsted acidity. Raman intensities of methyl red on pretreated ${\gamma}$-alumina are about three times stronger than on untreated ${\gamma}$-alumina, while spectral features are unchanged. For silica-alumina, spectral features show modified vibrational characteristics upon surface hydroxylations generated from pretreatment. Consequently, the acidity loss for silica-alumina and the basicity gain for ${\gamma}$-alumina were observed by increasing the surface hydroxyl groups on the catalysts through pretreatment of the steam calcination.

Raman and fluorescence spectroscopies were employed to study the coil effects on the intermolecular structure of a rod-coil liquid crystalline (LC) oligomer, the esterification products of ethyl 4-[4'-oxy-4-biphenylcarbonyloxy]- 4'-biphenylcarboxylate with poly(propylene)oxides (PPO) (DP=12) and poly(ethylene oxide)s (PEO) (DP=12). Three different vibrational modes (carbonyl, aromatic C-H, and aromatic C=C) obtained from the Raman experiment at variable temperature indicate that PPO and PEO coils induce the hydrogen bonding in a different manner. Further information about the micro-environment around the mesogenic unit obtained by fluorescence excitation spectra of P12-4 (LC with PPO coil) and 12-4 (LC with PEO coil) suggests that the mesogenic unit of P12-4 is quite different from that of 12-4 in intermolecular structure. This study supports the results obtained only from Raman spectroscopy, providing more accurate information about the intermolecular structural changes of liquid crystalline polymers at a molecular level during the phase transitions.

The reorganization energy and the spectroscopic properties of 2,6-bis(5'-hexyl-thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-2'- yl)naphthalene (DH-TNT) and 2,6-bis(5'-hexyl-thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-2'-yl)anthracene (DH-TAT), which are composed of an acene unit and alkylated thienothiophene on both sides, as organic materials for display devices were calculated and the results were compared with experimental values. The lower reorganization energy of the DH-TAT over the DH-TNT calculated by the density functional theory is attributed to a smaller vibrational distortion because of the heavier building block of DH-TAT, and it shows a good field effect performance over the DH-TNT. The calculated spectra and the other spectroscopic characteristic of the compounds are well consistent with those of observed results.

Surfaced-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of 4,4'-biphenyldithiol (BPDT) has been investigated at a silver island film. Ordinary Raman (OR) spectra of neat sample in solid state and in basic solution have also been taken for comparison. The spectral feature in the SERS spectrum was similar to that for the OR spectrum in basic solution, except for the broadening of ring stretching bands indicative of the presence of surface-phenyl ring $\pi$ interaction. In contrast, only absence of the C-H stretching band with very small Raman scattering cross-section seemed not pertinent in judging the definitive orientation of molecule. The observed vibrational bands in the SERS spectrum have been assigned by referring to the normal modes and wavenumbers from density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the simple model as 4,4'-biphenyldithiolates bound to two Ag atoms at the both ends. Excellent agreement between the experimental and the calculated results was achieved, which is remarkable considering the level of theory applied.

This contribution presents an extended one-dimensional theory for piezoelectric beam-type structures with non-ideal electrodes. For these types of electrodes the equipotential area condition is not satisfied. The main motivation of our research is originated from passive vibration control: when an elastic structure is covered by several piezoelectric patches that are linked via resistances and inductances, vibrational energy is efficiently dissipated if the electric network is properly designed. Assuming infinitely small piezoelectric patches that are connected by an infinite number of electrical, in particular resistive and inductive elements, one obtains the Telegrapher's equation for the voltage across the piezoelectric transducer. Embedding this outcome into the framework of Bernoulli-Euler, the final equations are coupled to the wave equations for the longitudinal motion of a bar and to the partial differential equations for the lateral motion of the beam. We present results for the wave propagation of a longitudinal bar for several types of electrode properties. The frequency spectra are computed (phase angle, wave number, wave speed), which point out the effect of resistive and inductive electrodes on wave characteristics. Our results show that electrical damping due to the resistivity of the electrodes is different from internal (=strain velocity dependent) or external (=velocity dependent) mechanical damping. Finally, results are presented, when the structure is excited by a harmonic single force, yielding that resistive-inductive electrodes are suitable candidates for passive vibration control that might be of great interest for practical applications in the future.
