Rosas, Rebecca Lee (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)Semi empirical computational methods can be used in conjunction with low frequency infrared and Raman spectra of gas -phase molecules to obtain information about large amplitude vibrations which are important for understanding ...
-
Zhai, Siyao (2019-06-14)This study focuses on investigating and improving the convergence of two numerical schemes for electromagnetic single scattering simulations: The pseudospectral time domain (PSTD) method and the invariant-imbedding T-matrix ...
-
Taylor, Justin K. (2010-07-14)Fiber Fabry-Perot Interferometers (FFPI) are optical sensors which can be used to measure changes in stress or temperature, but efforts continue to improve them. Calculations show that the response can be dramatically ...
-
Liu, Jianping (2014-07-12)In the first part of this dissertation, we study the light scattering properties of particles with chiral structures. Special attention is paid to the dinoflagellates, known for their circular polarization effects and as ...

Sanabria-Chinchilla, Jean (2009-06-02)The chemisorption and electrochemical hydrogenation of hydroquinone (H2Q) at polycrystalline (pc) Pd, well-ordered Pd(100), and Pd-modified Au(hkl) electrodes were studied using a combination of ultra-high vacuum (UHV) ...

Evaluations and Improvements of the RRTMG and Fu-Liou Radiative Transfer Model Simulations of Clouds Gu, Boyan (2019-12-04)Clouds play an important role in the Earth’s climate system, especially affecting the radiation balance and hydrological cycle. However, the modeled ice cloud radiative effects (CRE) are quite uncertain, because longwave ...

Ding, Jiachen (2019-03-13)Polarimetric remote sensing technologies have been demonstrated to be irreplaceable and effective for inferring cloud, aerosol, and ocean properties. To infer atmospheric and oceanic constituent properties from observational ...
-
Chambers, James Paul (2009-05-15)A procedure is introduced for increasing the sensitivity of measurements in integrated ring resonators beyond what has been previously accomplished. This is demonstrated by a high-frequency, phase sensitive lock to the ...
-
Chan, Kwok Chu (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1994)Infrared laser induced photodesorption of small alcohols (C1-C4) on Ag (111) was studied using C-H excitation (2800-3000cm^-1) and O-H excitation (3100-3500cm^-1). The photodesorption yield (PDY) depended on a number of ...
-
Baker, Jimmy Woodrow (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1972)The kinetic inductance of thin superconducting amorphous bismuth films has been measured. In the technique used the film is part of the inductance in the tank-circuit of a 13MHz tunnel diode oscillator. The measured frequency ...
-
Chen, Dayou (2016-11-28)In the first part of this dissertation, we simulate the underwater polarized light field. A three-dimensional backward Monte Carlo code is developed to simulate light scattering for an atmosphere-ocean system. In this ...
-
Meng, Zhaokai (2011-02-22)The light scattering problem and its application in atmospheric science is studied in this thesis. In the first part of this thesis, light scattering theory of single irregular particles is investigated. We first introduce ...
-
Zhu, Yue (2020-10-12)The phenomenon of Nuclear Spin Optical Rotation (NSOR) is a member of the nuclear magneto-optic effects. This is a spectroscopic phenomenon based on observing the polarization state of a light beam after it interacts with ...
-
Echeverria, Francesco Jozac (2015-05-12)Recent changes in the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) limits for near-infrared (NIR) laser exposures are analyzed in light of nonlinear optical phenomena. We have evaluated the thresholds for supercontinuum (SC) generation ...

Wilkinson, S. R.; Smith, A. V.; Scully, Marlan O.; Fry, Edward (American Physical Society, 1996)We observe Ramsey fringes in the absorption line shape for a weak optical field probing the transition between an unperturbed quantum state and one that is dynamically Stark shifted by a strong pump field.
-
Kim, Moochan (2011-08-08)Four problems in non-equilibrium statistical physics are investigated: 1. The thermodynamics of single-photon gas; 2. Energy of the ground state in Multi-electron atoms; 3. Energy state of the H2 molecule; and 4. The ...

Belyanin, Alexey; Kocharovsky, Vitaly V.; Capasso, Federico; Fry, Edward; Zubairy, M. Suhail; Scully, Marlan O. (American Physical Society, 2006)We consider a gedanken experiment with a beam of atoms in their ground state that are accelerated through a single-mode cavity. We show that taking into account of the "counterrotating" terms in the interaction Hamiltonian ...
