载能团簇离子诱发的非线性二次离子发射

载能团簇离子进入固体时, 由于集体相互作用,在入射路径上产生非常高的能量沉积密度。 实验发现, 载能团簇离子的作用结果并不等于团簇中各原子独立作用的总和, 而是具有非线性效应。 就二次离子发射而言, 这种非线性通常与团簇的能量、 团簇的大小、 离子的电荷态以及靶物质的结构有关。 通过研究二次离子发射有助于理解载能团簇离子与物质相互作用过程中的能量沉积与释放机制。 Using energetic cluster as projectile is a unique way to produce simultaneous impacts of several atoms and deposit extremely high energy density in a very small area. The cluster impingement on solids has exhibited some non linear effects not presented in collisions of individual atoms with those solids. The study of the secondary ion emissions can give insight into the energy deposition and relaxation steps of the cluster solid interaction. The dependence of the yields of secondary ion emission induced by clusters on the energy of clusters,cluster sizes,charge states and material structures of the targets was reviewed in this paper.

HIRFL-CSR实验环团簇内靶的首批测试实验

内靶装置是兰州重离子冷却储存环(HIRFL-CSR)实验环的一个重要的插入件,也是世界上第一个嵌入在重离子储存环中的内靶装置,它位于HIRFL-CSR实验环的一个直线段.团簇内靶具有传统外靶所不具备的一些优点,如高亮度、高精度和高灵敏度等.这些优点可使我们在内靶实验平台上进行一些高精度的物理实验.为满足不同物理实验的需求,内靶可以有两种工作模式:非极化靶运行模式和极化靶运行模式,用于为实验环内的物理实验提供厚度为1011~1013atoms/cm2的非极化靶和极化靶.团簇靶是属于非极化靶运行模式,它采用超声喷气和冷凝相结合的方法获得团簇粒子束,并在碰撞靶室中与环内束流相碰撞,未反应的团簇束被收集级抽走.团簇内靶可以提供靶密度约为2×1013atoms/cm2的Ne、Ar、Kr、Xe和N2、CH4等团簇束.目前已完成了团簇靶的现场安装和准直,并进行了真空达标、喷嘴冷却和稳定性等首批测试实验.本文主要介绍团簇靶的工作原理和首批测试实验结果.     

Theoretical study of molecular hydrogen and spiltover hydrogen storage on two-dimensional covalent-organic frameworks

Molecular hydrogen and spiltover hydrogen storages on five two-dimensional （2D） covalent-organic frameworks （COFs） （PPy-COF, TP-COF, BTP-COF, COF-18 A, and HHTP-DPB COF） are investigated using the grand canonical Monte Carlo （GCMC） simulations and the density functional theory （DFT）, respectively. The GCMC simulated results show that HHTP-DPB COF has the best performance for hydrogen storage, followed by BTP-COF, TP-COF, COF-18 A, and PPy-COE However, their adsorption amounts at room temperature are all too low to meet the uptake target set by US Department of Energy （US-DOE） and enable practical applications. The effects of pore size, surface area, and isosteric heat of hydrogen on adsorption amount are considered, which indicate that these three factors are all the important factors for determining the H2 adsorption amount. The chemisorptions of spiltover hydrogen atoms on these five COFs represented by the cluster models are investigated using the DFT method. The saturation cluster models are constructed by considering all possible adsorption sites for these cluster models. The average binding energy of a hydrogen atom and the saturation hydrogen storage density are calculated. The large average binding energy indicates that the spillover process may pro- ceed smoothly and reversibly. The saturation hydrogen storage density is much larger than the physisorption uptake of H2 molecules at 298 K and 100 bar （1 bar = 105 Pa）, and is close to or exceeds the 2010 US-DOE target of 6 wt% for hydrogen storage. This suggests that the hydrogen storage capacities of these COFs by spillover may be significantly enhanced. Thus 2D COFs studied in this paper are suitable hydrogen storage media by spillover.     

Generation of multi-atom cluster states via an unconventional geometric phase shift in cavity QED

This paper proposes two schemes to generate the multi-atom cluster states. The first scheme is based on the interaction of atoms with a highly detuned cavity mode and a classical field, the second scheme is based on the interaction of atoms with a cavity mode, strongly driven by a resonant classical field.     

Na decorated B6 cluster and its hydrogen storage properties

The structures and hydrogen storage properties of sodium atoms decorated B6 clusters are investigated by the B3LYP method with a 6-311＋G （d, p） basis set. For NamB6 （m = 1-3） clusters, Na atoms are always inclined to separate far enough from each other and not cluster together on a B6 cluster surface so that each Na atom has sufficient space to bind hydrogen molecules. The hydrogen storage gravimetric density of a two Na atoms decorated B6 cluster is 17.91 wt% with an adsorption energy per H2 molecule （AAE/H2） of 0.6851 kcal.mo1^-1. The appropriate AAE/H2 and preferable gravimetric density of the two Na atoms decorated B6 cluster complex indicate that it is feasible for hydrogen storage application in ambient conditions.     

Cluster size and substrate temperature affecting thin film formation during copper cluster deposition on a Si （001） surface

The soft deposition of Cu clusters on a Si(001) surface was studied by molecular dynamics simulations.The embedded atom method,the Stillinger-Weber and the Lennar-Jones potentials were used to describe the interactions between the cluster atoms,between the substrate atoms,and between the cluster and the substrate atoms,respectively.The Cu13,Cu55,and Cu147 clusters were investigated at different substrate temperatures.We found that the substrate temperature had a significant effect on the Cu147 cluster.For smaller Cu13 and Cu55 clusters,the substrate temperature in the range of study appeared to have little effect on the mean center-of-mass height.The clusters showed better degrees of epitaxy at 800 K.With the same substrate temperature,the Cu55 cluster demonstrated the highest degree of epitaxy,followed by Cu147 and then Cu13 clusters.In addition,the Cu55 cluster showed the lowest mean center-of-mass height.These results suggested that the Cu55 cluster is a better choice for the thin-film formation among the clusters considered.Our studies may provide insight into the formation of desired Cu thin films on a Si substrate.     

Realization of High Optical Density Rb Magneto-optical Trap

We report experimental demonstration of a magneto-optical trap （MOT） of Rb atoms with a high optical density. With 2.2-cm-diameter cooling laser beams, we achieve an optical density of nearly 11 for about 2.6× 10^10 trapped Rb atoms with the beam intensity of about 6.6 mW/cm^2 per beam. The temperature of the cold atoms is about 250 μK. Furthermore, by ramping the magnetic field gradient from 8 G/cm to about 20 G/cm, the atomic cloud in the MOT is compressed and the optical density is up to 16.     

Interaction of a bubble and a bubble cluster in an ultrasonic field

Using an appropriate approximation, we have formulated the interacting equation of multi-bubble motion for a system of a single bubble and a spherical bubble cluster. The behavior of the bubbles is observed in coupled and uncoupled states. The oscillation of bubbles inside the cluster is in a coupled state. The numerical simulation demonstrates that the secondary Bjerknes force can be influenced by the number density, initial radius, distance, driving frequency, and amplitude of ultrasound. However, if a bubble approaches a bubble cluster of the same initial radii, coupled oscillation would be induced and a repulsive force is evoked, which may be the reason why the bubble cluster can exist steadily. With the increment of the number density of the bubble cluster, a secondary Bjerknes force acting on the bubbles inside the cluster decreases due to the strong suppression of the coupled bubbles. It is shown that there may be an optimal number density for a bubble cluster which can generate an optimal cavitation effect in liquid for a stable driving ultrasound.     

强激光场中氘团簇双重膨胀引发核聚变

在超强fs激光与氘团簇的相互作用中, 分析了可以引发核聚变的高能氘核产生的原因,提出了团簇双重膨胀的机制,计算了氘核动能及团簇解体的时间, 为选取合适的激光脉冲宽度参数提供参考. Considering the Coulomb explosion induced by the interaction of a deuterium cluster target with ultra intensity femtosecond laser,the causation which generate energetic deuterium nuclei for the fusion has been analyzed. The mechanism for the dual explosion of deuterium cluster is proposed, and hence the velocity of deuterium nuclei and the expansion time of deuterium ion clusters have been estimated.     

Molecular flow and wall collision age distributions

The use of storage cells has become a standard technique for internal gas targets in conjunction with high energy storage rings. In case of spin-polarized hydrogen and deuterium gas targets the interaction of the injected atoms with the walls of the storage cell can lead to depolarization and recombination. Thus the number of wall collisions of the atoms in the target gas is important for modeling the processes of spin relaxation and recombination. It is shown in this article that the diffusion process of rarefied gases in long tubes or storage cells can be described with the help of the one-dimensional diffusion equation. Mathematical methods are presented that allow one to calculate collision age distributions (CAD) and their moments analytically. These methods provide a better understanding of the different aspects of diffusion than Monte Carlo calculations. Additionally it is shown that measurements of the atomic density or polarization of a gas sample taken from the center of the tube allow one to determine the possible range of the corresponding density weighted average values along the tube. The calculations are applied to the storage cell geometry of the HERMES internal polarized hydrogen and deuterium gas target. Received 9 July 2001 and Received in final form 18 September 2001     

Beyond optical molasses: 3D raman sideband cooling of atomic cesium to high phase-space density

We demonstrate a simple, general purpose method to cool neutral atoms. A sample containing 3x10(8) cesium atoms prepared in a magneto-optical trap is cooled and simultaneously spin polarized in 10 ms at a density of 1.1x10(11) cm (-3) to a phase space density nlambda(3)(dB) = 1/500, which is almost 3 orders of magnitude higher than attainable in free space with optical molasses. The technique is based on 3D degenerate Raman sideband cooling in optical lattices and remains efficient even at densities where the mean lattice site occupation is close to unity.     

The HERMES internal polarized hydrogen and deuterium target

The HERMES experiment at the electron ring of HERA at DESY studies the spin structure of proton and neutron by deep inelastic scattering of polarized electrons off the nucleons of a highly polarized internal gas target. The target makes use of a storage cell to increase the target density. The polarisation of a sample of the atoms in the cell is measured with a Breit-Rabi polarimeter. A relaxation model based on the diffusion equation has been developed, which is used to calculate the corrections which are needed to determine the absolute target polarization using the measured values. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Coulomb potential influence in the attoclock experimental scheme

Coulomb potential may induce a significant angular offset to the two-dimensional photoelectron momentum distributions for atoms subject to strong elliptically polarized laser fields.In the attoclock experiment,this offset usually cannot be easily disentangled from the contribution of tunneling delay and poses a main obstacle to the precise measurement of tunneling delay.Based on semiclassical calculations,here,we propose a method to extract the equivalent temporal offset induced solely by Coulomb potential(TOCP)in an attoclock experiment.Our calculations indicate that,at constant laser intensity,the TOCP shows distinctive wavelength dependence laws for different model atoms,and the ratio of the target atom’s TOCP to that of H becomes insensitive to wavelength and linearly proportional to(2Ip)?3/2,where Ip is the ionization potential of the target atom.This wavelength and Ip dependence of TOCP can be further applied to extract the Coulomb potential influence.Our work paves the way for an accurate measurement of the tunneling delay in the tunneling ionization of atoms subject to intense elliptically polarized laser fields.

Collisions between metastable hydrogen atoms at thermal energies

The complex interaction potentials arising in the approach of two metastable hydrogen 2s atoms are calculated and the cross sections for ionization, excitation transfer, and elastic scattering are predicted. The measured cross section for associative ionization at E = 4.1 meV equals 2x10(-15) cm (2). We calculate a total ionization cross section of 2x10(-13) cm (2), varying as E(-2/3) at higher energies. Thus it appears that dissociative ionization is the major ionization channel. We find also that double excitation transfer into two excited H(2p) atoms is still more probable with the large cross section of 9x10(-12) cm (2) at E = 4.1 meV varying as E(-1/2) at higher energies. The detection of the resulting Lyman alpha photons would provide a diagnostic test of our predictions.     

Guiding of intense laser pulses in plasma waveguides produced from efficient, femtosecond end-pumped heating of clustered gases

We demonstrate intense pulse guiding in efficient femtosecond end-pumped waveguides generated in clustered gases. This novel scheme provides a route to significantly lower on-axis plasma density (< 10(18) cm(-3)) more than is feasible in conventional hydrodynamic plasma waveguides. Self-focused propagation and strong absorption of intense femtosecond laser pulses are used to produce long centimeter scale channels in an argon cluster jet, and a subsequent pulse is guided with 3 x 10(17) W cm(-2) intensity and approximately 50% coupling efficiency. Preliminary results with hydrogen clusters also show guiding.
