The well-known Swanepoel method was often used to obtain the refractive index (RI) of thin films at the wavenumber values corresponding to the extremes of the transmission interference fringes. But it is difficult to accurately obtain the RI of chalcogenide thin films, especially at an arbitrary wavenumber. So a regional approach method (RAM) was presented here to extend the Swanepoel method to an arbitrary wavenumber.

Two series of chalcogenide glasses in Ge-Sb-S ternary system were synthesized with melt-quenching method. The phycochemical properties and spectral characteristic of glasses with different content of Ge and Sb were obtained with a series of measurements, and the systematic analysis on the change of optical properties was conducted in terms of microstructure of glasses combined with the Raman spectra. With constraint theory based on mean coordination number (Z), we described the variation trend of network structure directly.

Objective: To compare the clinical results of arthroscopic single and double-bundle ACLs reconstructions.

Methods: From January 2009 to May 2010,45 patients with anterior cruciate ligament tear were divided into two groups. In the first group,the anterior cruciate ligament were anatomical reconstructed with double-bundle semitendinous tendon, and in the second group the anterior cruciate ligaments were anatomical reconstrucated with single bundle semitendinous tendon.

A serial of chalcogenide glasses based on 78GeS2-12Ga2S3-10CsI (in molar%) system doped with the different radios of Ho3+/Tm3+ ions were synthesized by melt-quenching method. Their absorption spectra and mid-infrared fluorescence under 808 nm laser excitation were measured. According to Judd-Ofelt theory, the intensity parameters omega(i) (i = 2, 4, 6), spontaneous transition probabilities A(rad) and radiative lifetomes tau(r) for Ho3+ ion were calculated.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the use of arthroscopy for treating knee osteoarthritis, focusing on the relationship between imaging results and treatment outcomes.
  • 86 patients (average age 56.3) were evaluated over 12 to 30 months, with their knee cartilage graded using MRI and X-ray methods.
  • Findings showed no correlation between MRI cartilage grades and postoperative outcomes, while X-ray grades did show a significant relationship with patient improvement.

The spectroscopic properties and thermal stability of Er3+-doped Bi2O3-B2O3-Ga2O3 glasses are investigated experimentally. The effect of Ga2O3 content on absorption spectra, the Judd-Ofelt parameters Omega t (t=2, 4, 6), fluorescence spectra and the lifetimes of Er3+:4I 13/2 level are also investigated, and the stimulated emission cross-section is calculated from McCumber theory. With the increasing of Ga2O3 content in the glass composition, the Omega t (t=2, 4, 6) parameters, fluorescence full width at half maximum (FWHM) and the 4I 13/2 lifetimes of Er3+ first increase, reach its maximum at Ga2O3=8 mol.

Er3+/Yb3+ co-doped TeO2-B2O3-Nb2O5-ZnO (TBN) glasses were prepared. The absorption spectra and upconversion luminescence spectra of TBN glasses were measured and analyzed. The upconversion emission bands centered at 530, 546 and 658 nm were observed under the excitation at 975 nm, corresponding to the transitions of 2H11/2-->4I15/2, 4S3/2-->4I15/2 and 4F9/2-->4I15/2 respectively.

The Er3+/Yb3+-codoped 70TeO2-5Li2O-10B2O3-15GeO2 glass was prepared. The thermal stability, absorption spectra, emission spectra and up-conversion spectra were measured and investigated. The Judd-Ofelt analysis based on absorption spectra was performed in order to determine the Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters Omega(t) (t = 2, 4, 6), spontaneous emission probability, radiative lifetime and branching ratios of several Er3+ transitions.

The spectral properties of Er3+/Yb3+ codoped tungsten-tellurite (WT) glasses have been investigated. The measured absorption spectra are analyzed by Judd-Ofelt theory. The compositional change of intensity parameter omega2 is attributed to the change in the covalency between the Er3+ and oxygen ions, the asymmetry in the local structures around the Er3+ ions can be neglected.

The novel Er(3+) single-doped and Er(3+)/Yb(3+) co-doped tellurite glasses were prepared. The effect of Yb(2)O(3) concentration on absorption spectra, emission spectra and upconversion spectra of glasses were measured and investigated. The emission intensity, fluorescence full width at half maximum (FWHM) and upconversion luminescence of Er(3+) go up with the increasing concentration of Yb(3+) ions.
