The interaction phenomena of nanosecond Q-switched diode-pumped solid state (DPSS) laser using 355nm radiation with 0.2mm thick 316L stainless steel foil was investigated at incident laser fluence range of 19 - 82Jcm-2. The characterization study was performed with and without the use of assist gas by utilizing micro supersonic minimum length nozzles (MLN), specifically designed for air at inlet chamber pressure of 8bar. MLN ranged in throat diameters of 200μm, 300μm, and 500μm respectively. Average etch rate per pulse under the influence of three micro supersonic impinging jets, for both oxygen and air showed the average etch rate was reduced when high-speed gas jets were utilized, compared to that without any gas jets, but significant variation was noticed between different jet sizes. Highest etch rate and quality was achieved with the smallest diameter nozzle, suggesting that micro nozzles can produce a viable process route for micro laser cutting.

A radiation concentrator device 21 for improved efficiency in solar systems by limiting reflected light, comprising a radiation concentrator element 27 comprising a radiation transmissive surface 29, a radiation receiving device and disposed on the incident radiation side of the concentrator element 27 is a recapture element 23 for recapturing at least a portion of radiation lost from the concentrator element 27, where the recapturing element allows transmission of incident light into the concentrator element 27, recaptures escaping radiation from the concentrator element and reflecting the radiation back into the concentrator element. Also disclosed are radiation concentrator device 21 where the recapture element 23 comprises ridged or grooved structures to increase the internal reflection of the radiation. The concentrator element 27 may also be provided with luminescent materials.

A numerical study is presented showing the structural response and sound radiation from a range of thin shell structures excited by a point force: a baffled flat plate, a sphere, a family of spheroids and a family of closed circular cylinders. All the structures have the same material properties, thickness and total surface area so the asymptotic modal density is the same. Dramatic differences are shown in the total radiated sound power for the different shells. It was already known that the flat plate and the sphere behave very differently. These results show that the cylinders and, particularly, the spheroids show patterns that are not intermediate between the two but instead display new features: in certain frequency ranges the radiated sound power can be at least an order of magnitude greater than either the plate or the sphere. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
