Abstract:
Photoplastic film was prepared as a dispersion of 1% Cu-doped CdS in a deformable polymer matrix of plasticized polystyrene. Spectral response, determined by measuring the rate of photoinduced charge decay, was approximately constant in the range of 380-500 mmicro. Sensitivity was about 1 microJ/cm(2) under specified conditions of charge and spatial frequency. Resolving power was between 50-100 lp/mm. Signal-to-noise ratio and reusability characteristics are discussed.

01:20Types of Step-Growth Polymers: Polyesters
The introduction of polyesters has brought major development to the textile industry. The wrinkle-free behavior of polyester blends has eliminated the need for starching and ironing clothes.
Polyesters are commonly prepared from terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol; the crude product is known as poly(ethylene terephthalate) or PET. However, polyesters are synthesized industrially by transesterification of dimethyl terephthalate with ethylene glycol at 150 °C. The two reactants and the polymer...

01:29Determination of Crystal Structures
In the late 1800s, the revelation that light extended beyond visible wavelengths led to the discovery of X-rays by Wilhelm Roentgen. Recognized as high-energy electromagnetic radiation with short wavelengths, X-rays prompted exploration into their interaction with crystals. Max von Laue proposed in 1912 that the periodic arrangement of atoms, ions, or molecules in crystals would cause them to diffract X-rays, a hypothesis confirmed through experiments with copper sulfate and zinc sulfide...
