Dualistic temperature sensing in Er3+/Yb3+ doped CaMoO4 upconversion phosphor
No full textTemperature sensing performance of Er3+/Yb3+ doped CaMoO4 phosphor prepared via polyol method is reported herein. The X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy are done to confirm the phase, structure and purity of the synthesized phosphor. The infrared to green upconversion emission is investigated using 980 nm diode laser excitation along with its dependence on input pump power and external temperature. The temperature dependent fluorescence intensity ratio of two upconversion emission bands assigned to H-2(11/2) -> I-4(15/2) (530 nm) and S-4(3/2) -> I-4(15/2) (552 nm) transitions has shown two distinct slopes in the studied temperature range - 300 to 760 I< and therefore, dual nature of temperature sensitivity is observed in this phosphor. This phenomenon in rare earth doped materials is either scarcely reported or overlooked. The material has shown higher sensitivity in the high temperature region (535 K < T< 760 K) with a maximum of 721 x 10(-3) K-1 at 535 K. The results indicate potential of CaMoO4: Er3+/Yb3+ phosphor in high temperature thermometry. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
Geometric Invariant Theory and Applications to Tensor Products and the Saturation Conjecture
Get PDFIrreducible representations of a connected, semisimple, complex Lie group are parametrized by dominant, integral weights. If one such Lie group is embedded inside another, it is natural to ask when the tensor product of an irreducible representation of the smaller group with one of the larger group possesses a nontrivial space of invariants (this is equivalent to the representation theory branching problem). Geometric invariant theory is well-equipped to answer the slightly weaker question of existence of asymptotic invariants. After extensive work by several mathematicians, it is known that the solution set to this question is defined by finitely many rational linear inequalities and so induces a rational pointed cone. We provide formulas for the extremal rays of this cone by generalizing analogous formulas recently proven by the author and Belkale for the more specific scenario when the larger group is a direct product of the smaller group with itself (with the diagonal embedding). New rays not covered by these formulas also appear, but these are rare and easily identifiable by a procedure which we provide. We identify our first extremal rays thanks to a rigidity property stemming from a generalization of a conjecture of Fulton, which we first prove. Finally, we answer the Saturation Conjecture for three new connected, simple, complex Lie groups: type D_5, type D_6, and type E_6 (the first of the simply-laced exceptional types). This conjecture concerns the aforementioned cone in the diagonal embedding case and predicts that the need for weakening the original question to the asymptotic one is not necessary assuming the Lie group is simple of simply-laced type. Our verification takes as inspiration the proof of saturation for type D_4 given by Kapovich, Kumar, and Millson. However, we introduce a computational tool coming from the Localization Theorem in order to more efficiently calculate the necessary cup products using a supercomputer. Furthermore, the scale of the D_6 and E_6 calculations necessitates the use of the extremal ray formulas in order to directly produce rays instead of relying on software to find rays from inequalities.Doctor of Philosoph
