RESUMEN
Displays that can portray environments that are perceivable from multiple views are known as multiscopic displays. Some multiscopic displays enable realistic perception of 3D environments without the need for cumbersome mounts or fragile head-tracking algorithms. These automultiscopic displays carefully control the distribution of emitted light over space, direction (angle) and time so that even a static image displayed can encode parallax across viewing directions (Iightfield). This allows simultaneous observation by multiple viewers, each perceiving 3D from their own (correct) perspective. Currently, the illusion can only be effectively maintained over a narrow range of viewing angles. In this paper, we propose and analyze a simple solution to widen the range of viewing angles for automultiscopic displays that use parallax barriers. We propose the use of a refractive medium, with a high refractive index, between the display and parallax barriers. The inserted medium warps the exitant lightfield in a way that increases the potential viewing angle. We analyze the consequences of this warp and build a prototype with a 93% increase in the effective viewing angle.
RESUMEN
The decomposition of an environmentally recalcitrant s-triazine compound, prometry (PMT), was carried out by experimental and theoretical approaches to study the combined effects of hydroxyl radicals (OH) and hydrated electrons (eaq-). With the participation of strongly oxidative radicals OH and reductive radicals eaq- induced by electron beam (EB), PMT obtained a good decomposition performance, which was obviously better than those methods simply using OH as the single active species. The evolution of cyanuric acid (CA) during the EB and UV irradiation processes elucidate that former method could efficiently decompose such chemically stable intermediate. The experiments of radical scavengers further suggest that OH was the predominant radical during PMT degradation, while eaq- was beneficial to further decomposition and mineralization. Combined with the results of density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the strengthened synergistic effects between OH and eaq- were proven. The calculations illustrated OH could attack the carbon-branch-chains of s-trazine ring and form OH-adducts rather than nitrogen oxides. Moreover, the presence of eaq- could not only greatly change the geometry of the s-triazine ring, but also help cleaving alkyl chain on ring, thus facilitate the complete mineralization.
