Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry was used for the characterization of extracted and synthesized oligo(ethylene terephthalate)s. Generally, cyclic oligomers [GT]n could be found in technical yarns and tiles, whereas our synthesized model oligomers mainly consisted of linear chains H-[GT]n-G. In addition, some other distributions could be identified as H-[GH]n-OH and H-[GGT]1-[GT]n-7/-G linear oligomers and H-[GGT]1-[GT]n-1 cyclic oligomers, where G is an ethylene glycol unit, GG is a diethylene glycol unit, caused by impurities of ethylene glycol, and T is a terephthalic acid unit. NMR and IR investigations were carried out to verify these results.
We evaluated the effect of the neodymium:YLF picosecond laser on intraocular lenses (IOLs) during experimental posterior capsulotomy and established the minimum damage threshold for lathe-cut poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) IOLs. Single-piece, biconvex, lathe-cut PMMA lenses were placed in a model eye chamber against a latex membrane with a central area of lens-capsule touch. Energy levels from 40 micro J to 360 microJ pulse (0.4 mJ to 3.6 mJ) with a 0.5 mm line and a spot pattern were tested using different focal offsets. Threshold damage level was determined under the scanning electron microscope after observing the minimal energy level that did not cause damage to or pits in the IOLs. Lenses were then analyzed for size and type of damage. The 0.5 mm line pattern at 160 microJ using 350 microns offset was safe and effective for posterior capsulotomy in vitro. spot pattern caused IOL damage in the form of small pits at much lower energy levels of 80 microJ using 400 microns offset than the line pattern.
During application of the 193 nm excimer laser to vitreoretinal surgery, very deep cutting of the retina of about 100 microm/pulse was detected at the energy fluence in the range of 0.25-0.35 J/cm2/pulse. At the surface of the ablating tip insoluble bubbles were observed during the irradiation. In this paper we study production of these bubbles in aqueous solutions of sodium chloride. The yield of gaseous photoproducts was measured as a function of NaCl concentration and energy fluence. At concentrations of 100 g/L powerful water vapor bubbles and shock waves were observed. A mechanism of soft tissue cutting by the 193 nm laser in highly absorbing liquid media is suggested that explains the features of vitreoretinal ablation with this system: (1) the high cutting depth when the tip touches the tissue and (2) the absence of cutting when the tip is not in contact with tissue. The advantages of the ArF laser for microsurgery of internal organs are discussed.
