    Notes: A combined neutron diffraction and molecular dynamics study is reported of the Dy3+ ion environment in vitreous NaF–DyF3–BeF2, using a special version of the isotopic substitution procedure known as the null technique. To investigate the effects of both NaF and DyF3 on the basic beryllium fluoride glass network, complementary measurements and simulations have been performed for vitreous NaF–BeF2, with the same NaF:BeF2 ratio as the DyF3 containing glass, and also for pure vitreous BeF2. The neutron diffraction data indicate that for glasses simulated using pair potentials the BeF4 tetrahedra are much more distorted than those in the real materials and the mean Be–F–Be angle is too high. Both of these deficiencies in the simulations are attributed to the use of simple ionic potentials with no bond angle restoring forces. Experimentally, the distribution of Dy–F first neighbor distances is found to be narrow, having a root mean square deviation of 0.110±0.003 A(ring) about the mean value of 2.290±0.003 A(ring). The Dy(F) coordination number is 7.3±0.2 which is slightly less than that in crystalline DyF3.

    Notes: The coordination of water molecules around the metal ion in acidified 1 m DyCl3, 1.0 m Dy(ClO4)3, 0.3 m Dy(ClO4)3, and 1.0 m Yb(ClO4)3 solutions in D2O have been determined by the neutron diffraction difference technique. A coordination number of eight is found for the two ions, which depends neither on the counterion, nor on the concentration. The near metal–oxygen and metal–deuterium distances are, respectively, 2.39±0.02 and 3.03±0.02 A(ring) for dysprosium and 2.33±0.02 and 2.98±0.02 A(ring) for ytterbium. A general discussion concerning the hydration of the lanthanide ions is given.

    Notes: The applications of magnetic direct generation, a noncontact technique for generating acoustic waves, are limited by poor transduction efficiency. This letter describes an approach for substantially improving the transduction efficiency by application of a transduction format, enhanced direct magnetic generation, that utilizes continuous wave resonances and thin film generation. Glass plates coated with thin films of aluminium have been used as free-standing acoustic cavities to generate resonances with high transduction efficiencies and Q factors. These acoustic resonances have been excited without mechanical contact and their origin and characteristics are discussed with respect to resonances in 530 μm thick aluminized silica plates. The consequences of magnetic direct generation applied to thin metal films, as opposed to bulk metal, are also discussed, particularly with respect to high operating frequencies and acoustic Q factors. It is possible that novel sensors and time standards may be constructed by exploiting this approach. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
