Conclusion

Abstract

The conclusion reaffirms the essential role played by cinema generally, and the coming-of-age genre in particular, in the process of national identity formation, because of its effectiveness in facilitating self-recognition and self-experience through a process of triangulation made possible, for the most part, by a dialogue with some of the nation’s most iconic works of literature. This section concludes by point out the danger posed, however, by an observable trend toward generic standardization in New Zealand films motivated by a desire to appeal to an international audience out of consideration for the financial returns expected by funding bodies under current regimes.

Nanoimaging of Water Bending and Carboxylate Stretching Modes in Colloidal Nanocrystal Films

“…However, they have different dependencies on excitation light frequencies. Using a simple dipole oscillator model, it can be shown that, at resonance frequency, the real part shows a derivative-like shape, while the imaginary part peaks at the resonance frequency . In our recent publication, we have verified that the IR near-field phase signal has very similar frequency dependence as that of the Fourier transform infrared vibrational peaks with sub-wavenumber agreement of peak values .…”

Use of Organic Semiconductors as Handles for Optical Tweezers Experiments: Trapping and Manipulating Polyaniline (PANI) Microparticles

“…Furthermore, for the lowest powers used the experimental data is slight higher than the theoretical prediction, and the opposite behavior occurs for the highest powers used. Such a type of behavior was previously verified for other absorbing beads (although for higher laser powers) and strongly suggests that the absorption coefficient of PANI beads is intensity-dependent, as in the case of traditional semiconductors such as germanium or silicon. , In other words, increasing laser intensity increases the rate of generation of free charge carriers in semiconductors, which in turn increases the absorption coefficient by the free carrier (FC) absorption mechanism (α FC ). , Thus, the deviation of the experimental data from the linearity can be understood by assuming that for powers less than ∼3.5 mW the absorption coefficient is slightly lower than 2300 cm –1 (and therefore the experimental κ is higher than that predicted by the GO model); while for laser powers higher than 3.5 mW the absorption coefficient is slightly higher than 2300 cm –1 (and therefore the experimental κ is smaller than predicted by the GO model).…”

“…Using the aforementioned relationships, the real portion of ε 1 (ω) could be approximated as follows using the Kramer–Kroing relation ε 1 ( ω ) = 1 + 2 π P ∫ 0 ∞ ω ′ ε 2 false( ω ′ false) ω ′ 2 − ω 2 d ω ′ The real part of the dielectric function ε 1 (ω) explains the polarizing behavior of the material. The static dielectric constant, ε 1 (0), can be observed in Figure a,b at ω = 0 and is also listed in Table for the aforementioned materials.…”

“…The extinction coefficient k (ω) is the imaginary part of the complex refractive index function, N (ω) = η(ω) + ik (ω), and it is derived by the Kramer–Kroing relation k ( ω ) = true[ ε 1 2 ( ω ) + ε 2 2 ( ω ) − ε 1 ( ω ) 2 true] 1 / 2 …”
