Dilution effects in the photoacoustic spectra of powdered Ho2O3 and Er2O3 mixtures

  • 1. Argonne National Lab., IL

Description

The photoacoustic (PA) spectrum of a powdered solid which is mixed with an optically transparent material is not in general proportional, in terms of intensities, to the spectrum of the pure solid. This dilution effect and related aspects which influence the PA spectra of polycrystalline solids are described in this article for experiments with powdered mixtures of holmium oxide (Ho2O3) and erbium oxide (Er2O3). 3 figures, 2 tables
