Spectral and Angular Characteristics of the High-Contrast Dielectric Grating under the Resonant Interaction of a Plane Wave and a Gaussian Beam.

The resonant interaction of a plane wave and a one-dimensional Gaussian beam with a high-contrast dielectric grating was analyzed. Rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) was used to numerically model the diffraction of a plane wave by the grating. RCWA, a discrete Fourier transform at the fulfillment (of the conditions) of the sampling theorem, was used to study diffraction of the Gaussian beam.

Features of the Resonance in a Rectangular Dielectric Surace-Relief Gratings Illuminated with a Limited Cross Section Gaussian Beam.

In this work the features of the resonance in a rectangular dielectric surface-relief gratings, illuminated with a limited cross-section Gaussian beam, have been studied. The rigorous coupled wave method and beam decomposition into the plane waves by the Fourier transform have been used. It is shown that there is a resonant wavelength for each thickness of the dielectric grating.

Synthesis, QSAR modeling, and molecular docking of novel fused 7-deazaxanthine derivatives as adenosine A receptor antagonists.

Predictive QSAR models for the search of new adenosine A receptor antagonists were developed by using OCHEM platform. The predictive ability of the regression models has coefficient of determination q  = 0.65-0.

Diffraction of a Gaussian Beam with Limited cross Section by a Volume Phase Grating under Waveguide Mode Resonance.

In this work, the diffraction of a Gaussian beam on a volume phase grating was researched theoretically and numerically. The proposed method is based on rigorous coupled-wave analysis (RCWA) and Fourier transform. The Gaussian beam is decomposed into plane waves using the Fourier transform.
