P-polarized nonlinear surface polaritons near the surface of a saturable self-defocusing medium: Threshold case

We have obtained the solution of the stationary problem for P-polarized nonlinear surface polaritons (NLSP) near the interface of two media, one of which is optically linear and the other having an optical nonlinearity with saturation and a dielectric function of the form: =_xx=_zz=₀+a|E|²/(1+b|E|²), where E is the amplitude of the electric field. On this basis the NLSP energy and propagation properties, the polarization structure and the localization depth of the NLSP field as well as the physically allowed region in the parameter space have been investigated for the case in which the parameter ₀ is positive, b is non-negative, and a and ₁ are negative (₁ is the dielectric function of the linear medium); ₀>|₁|.

A note on the Watanabe theory of weak interactions

It is shown that according to the Watanabe theory of weak interactions a resonant scattering of electrons by protons must take place. The resonant energy depends on the massm _B of the intermediate boson. Form _B=2300m _e this energy is about 213 MeV in the centre of the mass system (c. m. s.). The energy width at resonance is 1·4 MeV.

On the electroluminescence of powdered zinc sulphide layers

The experimental study of the dependence of the electroluminescence brightness on the voltage confirms the correctness of the mechanism of electroluminescence, based on impact ionization in parts of the crystal where the electric field is concentrated. A study of the photoluminescent and electroluminescent spectra of phosphors containing two activators (copper and an element of rare earth) permits the determination of the magnitude of the volume of the crystal in which electroluminescence occurs. A study of the influence of the stored light sum on the brightness of electroluminescence and a study of the rate of growth of the variable and constant components of electroluminescence point to the fact that the excitation is transferred from the region of field concentration to the whole volume of the crystal.

Kinetic theory of adsorption and desorption

In this paper we use stochastic methods to discuss adsorption and desorption. The paper derives generalized coefficients of sticking and accomodation depending on surface temperatureT _s and gas temperatureT _g and shows, that for additive Markov processes, these kinetic coefficients are identical. Furthermore, exact solutions of the kinetic equations for certain simple transition probabilitiesP(, ) are found and an approximation method for more complicatedP(, ) is given. The comparison of the theory with experimental results for noble gas-metal systems indicate a quadratic relationship between the first moment of the transition probabilityP(, ) and the well depth of the physisorption system.     

Retardation of electromagnetic waves by helices of large diameters

This paper is devoted to the study of the wave retardation by helices of large diameters, when the lengthL of one turn of the helix is larger than the vacuum wavelength, i.e.L/>1. The dispersion equation of the tape helix wound up on a dielectric cylinder was derived and the dependence of the phase velocity of slowed-down waves on the diameter of helix was calculated. The theory was verified experimentally at a frequencyf=2·385 GHz. Helices were wound up on polyfoam (=1·04) and plexiglass (=2·55) cylinders of various diameters. For the helix wound up on plexiglass cylinders it was found that the wave retardation depends on the form of conductor from which the helix is made. The retardation of waves is determined by an effective dielectric constant _ef which is equal either ( _i + _e)/2 for the tape helix or ( _{i e}) for the helix made from a wire of the circular cross-section; here _i is the dielectric constant of inner dielectric rod and _e is that of outer space.     

The use of the repulsive potential in the quantum theory of solids

A new method is proposed for calculating the energy in certain special points of the Brillouin zone. The wave functions of valence and conduction electrons are given in the form of the linear combination of plane waves and the orthogonality condition of these functions to the wave functions of lower states is replaced by the repulsive potential. The practical application of this very simple method is illustrated on the energy spectrum of silicon in the centre of the Brillouin zone. It is proved that the results are comparable with some other methods, e. g. the orthogonalized plane-wave method.

The energy of periodic surface structures in ferromagnetism

The periodic domain structures on unfavourably oriented surface layers of ferromagnetic materials were studied both experimentally and theoretically. The connection between the surface structure and the crystallographic orientation of the crystals was confirmed. All the terms contributing to the total energy of the surface layer were calculated. A general solution of the potential problem is given for arbitrary periodic distribution of the charges.

Asymptotic theory of multidimensional chaos

A delay-differential equationu(t)+u(t)=f(u(t–1)), 0t < , and its generalization are investigated in the limit 0, when the attractor's dimension increases infinitely. It is shown that a number of statistical characteristics are asymptotically independent of. As for the attractor, it can be regarded as a direct product ofO(1/) equivalent subattractors, their statistical characteristics being asymptotically independent of . The results enable one to predict some characteristics of the attractor with fractal dimensionD 1 for the case 1, when they are inaccessible numerically. The approach developed seems to be applicable for a wide class of spatiotemporal systems.     

Dispersion of the permittivity of high-resistance semiconductors

We consider the mechanism of macroscopic polarization of semiconducting plates owing to the interaction of free carriers with an impurity level, in which role the level of the residual impurity of compensated semiconductors may appear. This mechanism, in combination with the diffusion-drift mechanism of polarization, results in additional dispersion of the real () and imaginary () parts of the dielectric permittivity, this being particularly significant for semiconductors of thickness smaller than the screening length L_s of free carriers. The character of the behavior of and depends on the relation between the Maxwell relation time _M and the times of carrier capture: _c and ejection _e by an impurity center. For _cetm and (/L_s) _e/_c1 the dispersion of and is the same as for thick plates (/L_s1). For _{c m e} and (/L_s)_e/_c1 the () curve has a characteristic kink in the region 1/_e, indicating additional absorption associated with the ejection of carriers into the surface region.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 10, pp. 11–13, October, 1981.

Dielectric properties of NaCl1−xBr and KCl1−xBrx mixed ionic solution

In the present paper a three-body potential model (TBPM) has been employed for the analysis of dielectric behaviour of NaCl-NaBr and and KCl-KBr mixed crystals with varying compositions. The physical properties like dielectric constants ( ₀ and ), optic mode frequencies ( _OLO and _TO), effective charge parameter (e _s ^* ), optic mode Grüneisen parameters and strain derivatives of ₀ and dielectric constants have been calculated. The results achieved in the present study are found in fairly good agreement with the available experimental data. The results obtained by previous investigators are also shown for the sake of comparison.     

Changes in the properties of dielectric material T-8000 produced by irradiation with electrons and protons

In studying the dielectric properties of material T-8000, a difference was discovered in the effects of electron and proton irradiation on dielectric permeability () and dielectric loss angle tangent (tan ). It is assumed that upon irradiation with protons having higher energy (4.25 MeV) the processes of titanium, zirconate, and barium ion displacement occur with greater probability than upon irradiation with electrons whose energy does not exceed 1.2 MeV. This causes the differences in the changes in tan and of the T-8000 material.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 3, pp. 46–49, March, 1974.     

Sensitivity of approximate formulas for determining optical constants of thin films

The sensitivity of approximate formulas for determining the optical constants of thin films using measurement of reflectancesR and transmittancesT at normal incidence have been investigated theoretically. The ranges of refractive indexn, absorption indexk,2nk (=₂) andn ²–k ²(=₁) within relative errors of 5%, 10%, and 20% may be obtained. Selected signs of (₁)⁺ or (₁)^– have been determined. Validity of the condition n₀ A=n _s A has been also evaluated (A=1–R –T andA=1–R–T).     

Precipitation hardening of alloys with structure modulated within the region of micro- and macroflow. I

The effect of precipitation of phase Co₃Ti on the change in mechanical properties, measured within the range of micro ( - 10^§-1), and macroflow ( = 10^–3) was studied at various stages of decomposition of the Co-Ni-Ti and Co-Ni- Ti-Al alloys. It was shown that in the region of microdeformation, a parabolic dependence () is observed, and the dependence of resistance to deformation on the grain size is expressed by Petch equation. It was shown that theoretical estimations with the use of Gerold -Haberkorn and Gleiter-Hornbogen theories are in agreement with the experimentally observed changes in macroscopic yield stress during the process of precipitation of Co₃Ti phase in the studied alloys.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 9, pp. 46–52, September, 1972.

Scattering states and bound states in λ℘(φ)2

By analyzing the Bethe-Salpeter equation for even ()₂ models we show that for weak coupling the mass spectrum is discrete and of finite multiplicity below 2m. Moreover on even states of energy less than 4(m–) we show that theS matrix is unitary. Herem is the physical mass and =()0 as 0. Our results rely essentially only on a simple assumption about the analyticity of the Bethe-Salpeter kernel which has been verified for weak coupling. For the interaction ⁴, (/m _o ² 1) we show that there are no even bound states of energy less than 4(m–).Work supported in part by NSF, Grant MPS 74-13252

Phase transformations in Cu-Sn alloys containing Ni,Al, Ge,and In

After quenching from 700C and aging, Cu-Sn alloys containing Ni and Al were found to have a precipitation of-solid solution, with a DO₃ type of ordering, of metastable ,, and phases. It was established that the phase has an 4 type of ordering while the phase has the Cu₃Ti type. Observations revealed that Cu-Sn-Al alloys contained two phases, and, with an identical structure but with different ratios of electron concentration per atom.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 4, pp. 34–37, April, 1981.
