We describe here efforts to create and study magnetized electron–positron pair plasmas, the existence of which in astrophysical environments is well-established. Laboratory incarnations of such systems are becoming ever more possible due to novel approaches and techniques in plasma, beam and laser physics. Traditional magnetized plasmas studied to date, both in nature and in the laboratory, exhibit a host of different wave types, many of which are generically unstable and evolve into turbulence or violent instabilities. This complexity and the instability of these waves stem to a large degree from the difference in mass between the positively and the negatively charged species: the ions and the electrons. The mass symmetry of pair plasmas, on the other hand, results in unique behaviour, a topic that has been intensively studied theoretically and numerically for decades, but experimental studies are still in the early stages of development. A levitated dipole device is now under construction to study magnetized low-energy, short-Debye-length electron–positron plasmas; this experiment, as well as a stellarator device that is in the planning stage, will be fuelled by a reactor-based positron source and make use of state-of-the-art positron cooling and storage techniques. Relativistic pair plasmas with very different parameters will be created using pair production resulting from intense laser–matter interactions and will be confined in a high-field mirror configuration. We highlight the differences between and similarities among these approaches, and discuss the unique physics insights that can be gained by these studies.

In May 2001, the World Health Assembly (WHA) passed a resolution which urged member states to attain, by 2010, a minimum target of regularly administering anthelminthic drugs to at least 75% and up to 100% of all school-aged children at risk of morbidity. The refined global strategy for the prevention and control of schistosomiasis and soil-transmitted helminthiasis was issued in the following year and large-scale administration of anthelminthic drugs endorsed as the central feature. This strategy has subsequently been termed ‘preventive chemotherapy’. Clearly, the 2001 WHA resolution led the way for concurrently controlling multiple neglected tropical diseases. In this paper, we recall the schistosomiasis situation in Africa in mid-2003. Adhering to strategic guidelines issued by the World Health Organization, we estimate the projected annual treatment needs with praziquantel among the school-aged population and critically discuss these estimates. The important role of geospatial tools for disease risk mapping, surveillance and predictions for resource allocation is emphasised. We clarify that schistosomiasis is only one of many neglected tropical diseases and that considerable uncertainties remain regarding global burden estimates. We examine new control initiatives targeting schistosomiasis and other tropical diseases that are often neglected. The prospect and challenges of integrated control are discussed and the need for combining biomedical, educational and engineering strategies and geospatial tools for sustainable disease control are highlighted. We conclude that, for achieving integrated and sustainable control of neglected tropical diseases, a set of interventions must be tailored to a given endemic setting and fine-tuned over time in response to the changing nature and impact of control. Consequently, besides the environment, the prevailing demographic, health and social systems contexts need to be considered.

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) epidemiology among residents of a rural agricultural plantation in Kericho, Kenya was studied. HIV-1 prevalence was 14·3%, and was higher among women (19·1%) than men (11·3%). Risk factors associated with HIV-1 for men were age (⩾25 years), marital history (one or more marriages), age difference from current spouse (⩾5 years), Luo ethnicity, sexually transmitted infection (STI) symptoms in the past 6 months, circumcision (protective), and sexual activity (⩾7 years). Among women, risk factors associated with HIV-1 were age (25–29 years, ⩾35 years), marital history (one or more marriages), age difference from current spouse (⩾10 years), Luo ethnicity, STI symptoms in the past 6 months, and a STI history in the past 5 years. Most participants (96%) expressed a willingness to participate in a future HIV vaccine study. These findings will facilitate targeted intervention and prevention measures for HIV-1 infection in Kericho.

A brief overview of the research activities at the Thermionic Energy Conversion (TEC) Center is given. The goal is to achieve direct thermal to electric energy conversion with >20% efficiency and >1W/cm2 power density at a hot side temperature of 300–650C. Thermionic emission in both vacuum and solid-state devices is investigated. In the case of solid-state devices, hot electron filtering using heterostructure barriers is used to increase the thermoelectric power factor. In order to study electron transport above the barriers and lateral momentum conservation in thermionic emission process, the current-voltage characteristic of ballistic transistor structures is investigated. Embedded ErAs nanoparticles and metal/semiconductor multilayers are used to reduce the lattice thermal conductivity. Cross-plane thermoelectric properties and the effective ZT of the thin film are analyzed using the transient Harman technique. Integrated circuit fabrication techniques are used to transfer the n- and p-type thin films on AlN substrates and make power generation modules with hundreds of thin film elements. For vacuum devices, nitrogen-doped diamond and carbon nanotubes are studied for emitters. Sb-doped highly oriented diamond and low electron affinity AlGaN are investigated for collectors. Work functions below 1.6eV and vacuum thermionic power generation at temperatures below 700C have been demonstrated.

Organic chromophores have been exploited for a wide range of discrete optical and electronic functions as well as a growing number of combined opto-electronic functions. We are pursuing development of organic and polymer materials for a range of applications that require properties including liquid crystallinity, second order optical nonlinearity, photorefractivity and, more recently, special nonlinear optical behavior involving molecular chirality.

Microstructural aspects of wear resistance have been investigated using cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to analyze both as-deposited and worn films. Asdeposited Pb-Mo-S films were virtually amorphous, i.e., show no long range structure. Wear tracks revealed a two-part wear process localized at the sliding surface. First, Pb-Mo-S at the sliding surface was transformed into basal-oriented, crystalline MoS2 from I to 4 monolayers thick. Then, as sliding continued, the MoS2 layers were detached one or two layers at a time. Evidence for the nanometer scale wear process is presented.

We measured the third-harmonic spectrum for a series of both centrosymmetric and noncentrosymmetric squaraine dyes in chloroform. By fitting the experimental dispersion of the third order susceptibility, γ, to a four-level sum-over-states model, we determined the strength and location of the lowest lying two-photon-like transition. In each case, we find that the lowest two-photon-like state appears just above the dominant linear absorption peak in energy and that the transition moment to that state makes a significant contribution to the nonlinearity, as do transition moments to one or more higher-lying two-photon-like states in the ultraviolet. The spectra of one centrosymmetric dye contains an additional feature evidencing a nonzero dipole moment difference between the ground and first excited state dipole moments (δμ) that we attribute to a conformational asymmetry. A noncentrosymmetric squaraine dye shows a similar feature, which, as expected, arises from its δμ. Effects of symmetry breaking are described.

The relaxation of the nonlinear optical coefficient of poled electro-optic polymers remains an important issue in the potential application of these Materials. This relaxation is due to the homogenization of the orientational distribution function of nonlinear chromophores in the polymer glass over time. We have measured the relaxation using optical second harmonic generation as a function of temperature for doped polymer materials over a range of temperatures deep in the glassy state. We relate the data to widely used physical models of the glassy state which indicate that the relaxation process occurs over a considerable range of time scales. It has been found that the decay of the nonlinear polarization exhibits two mechanisms depending on the time and temperature scales over which measurements are performed. We have carried out measurements over a range of times and show that a broad distribution of relaxation times characterizes the data. This broad distribution is an appealing model in that it not only fits the data well, but is well connected to accepted physical models of the relaxation behavior of glasses. The characteristic energy of the relaxation can be estimated from the temperature dependence and is found to be equal to or less than the energy characterizing the polymer Motion, and agrees with dielectric studies. This indicates that the chromophores are more or less coupled to the dynamics of the polymer chain. A figure of merit for the coupling of the chromophore to the polymer chain is proposed.

The relationship between the supramolecular conformational structure of assembled chromophores and their susceptibility to electric field poling is of interest for maximizing the bulk alignment achievable in an electro-optic material. We have employed solution phase dielectric constant measurements to investigate possible enhancements in dipolar susceptibility as a function of connectivity and state of aggregation in rationally synthesized chromophore assemblies, including conformationally defined head-to-tail oligomers. On the other hand, conformationally unrestricted, highly dipolar azo dyes behave as relatively isolated molecules even when present in supersaturated solutions and in close proximity on polymer chains.

Molecular second-order nonlinear optical susceptibilities (β) based on EFISH measurements in dimethylsulfoxide of selected donor-acceptor substituted organic compounds are reported. Enhanced values were noted for compounds containing highly ionizable substituents. Compounds possessing the highest susceptibilities were dissolved in polymer films and electric-field poled, leading to corresponding enhancements in the nonlinear optical coefficients. The data are consistent with molecular and thermodynamic models.

We present results of studies of orientational order of Langmuir-Blodgett monolayer and multilayer films based on second harmonic generation and linear absorption measurements. Two new compounds, a tricyanovinyl aniline and a tricyanovinyl azo dye, both possessing large second order molecular susceptibilities have been synthesized and transferred as monolayers from the air-water interface to solid substrates using the Langmuir-Blodgett technique. The azo dye is a superior Langmuir-Blodgett material, forming films which are chemically and structurally stable. Multilayers of this compound show an enhancement in polar orientational order with thickness, as observed in the dependence of the second harmonic polarization components on number of layers.
