SPIE 8114, Liquid Crystals XV, 811415 (7 September 2011). DOI: https://doi.org/10.1117/12.893208We report tunable single-mode lasing with an improved slope efficiency from a cholesteric liquid crystal (ChLC) cavity with a three-layered structure. The device consists of one photopolymerized ChLC layer with a wide reflection band, another ChLC layer with a notch reflection band and a Rhodamine-6G-doped ionic liquid layer acting as the gain medium. Single-mode lasing can be obtained in this device structure because the ChLC layer with the notch reflection band strongly reflects only one of the Fabry-Perot cavity modes. Tuning of the lasing wavelength is achieved by tuning the reflection band of the notch ChLC. The device showed a maximum slope efficiency of 16%, which was found to be approximately 1.5 times larger than that of ordinary ChLC lasers doped with the pyrromethene 597 laser dye
Capacitors
No full textThis webpage is part of a larger site by the author about electronic circuit engineering. This page introduces the reader to capacitors, including the principles behind how they work. Explanations of several different types of capacitors (including Electrolytic, Tantalum, and Mica) are accompanied by detailed color illustrations of the concepts
Lecideoid lichens of Prince Olav Coast and Soya Coast, Enderby Land, East Antarctica
No full textFive species of lecideoid lichens belonging to three genera are reported as new to the flora of the Prince Olav Coast and the Soya Coast, Enderby Land, East Antarctica; they are Carbonea capsulata (DODGE & BAKER) HALE, Lecidea andersonii R. FILSON, Lecidea cancriformis DODGE & BAKER, Lecidea soyaensis M. INOUE and Lecidella siplei (DODGE & BAKER) M. INOUE. All are endemic to Antarctica. An examination was made of the collections from the region, which were collected mainly by the author under the project of the 27th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-27,during January 1986 and February 1987). The type and authentic specimens of possibly related species have been restudied. Lecidea soyaensis M. INOUE is new to science and Lecidella siplei (DODGE & BAKER) M. INOUE is proposed as a new combination. Taxonomic and chemical data as well as a key to the known taxa are provided

Clinical trial of radiotherapy after intravenous injection of acridine orange for patients with cancer
No full textAim: We previously found that low-dose X-ray treatment after systemic administration of acridine orange (AO), which is known to have a low toxicity in animals, inhibited tumor growth in experimental studies using mouse osteosarcoma. In this pilot study, we planned to verify the toxicity of intravenous injection of low-dose AO in humans and investigate the anticancer effect of radiation after systemic AO administration (iAOR) for human cancer. Patients and Methods: Eight patients with terminal cancer were treated with iAOR. Results: None of the patients exhibited an adverse effect from AO injection. Three out of the five patients who received a full course of iAOR exhibited clinical or image-based responses, whereas two patients did not. Conclusion: The systemic administration of AO was confirmed not to be toxic in humans, and iAOR was suggested to be potentially effective against radioresistant cancer
The Hobby of Electronic Circuit Engineering
No full textThis website (originally created in Japanese and translated into English using translation software) by a Japanese systems engineer, Seiichi Inoue, provides an extensive overview of electronic circuit engineering. Topics covered include: Basic knowledge of Electronic parts, Basic knowledge of Engineering Instruments, an Introduction of Engineering Method, and the Assembly Process. A variety of electronic circuits and their uses are provided, as well as a separate section on PIC electronic circuits. The language may be difficult to follow at times given the translation, but still a gem of a site for anyone wanting to build some circuits! Keep in mind that in some sections, the author notes that he is "describing while studying, there seems to be mistakes in the contents. Do at your own risk." For some further browsing, he includes sections on his other interests, such as 3D photography, java programming, CAD, Japanese customs and the Japanese language
