利用纳秒激光脉冲所激发的超声纵波, 非接触地测量了蓝宝石单晶沿c轴方向的弹性模量 C₃₃随温度的变化关系. 结果表明, 在室温到1000 ℃ 的范围内, 蓝宝石的弹性模量C₃₃随温度T的升高而减小, 两者之间近似呈如下二次关系: C₃₃ = - 1.541× 10^-5T² - 0.021T + 498.3. 由于该方法利用激光烧蚀效应激发出了强度很大的纵波, 因此对弹性模量的测量具有较高的精度, 估算C₃₃的测量误差不超过0.1%.

Critical dynamics and multifractal exponents at the Anderson transition in 3d disordered systems

We investigate the dynamics of electrons in the vicinity of the Anderson transition in d = 3 dimensions. Using the exact eigenstates from a numerical diagonalization, a number of quantities related to the critical behavior of the diffusion function are obtained. The relation η = d ? D₂ between the correlation dimension D₂ of the multifractal eigenstates and the exponent η which enters into correlation functions is verified. Numerically, we have η ≈? 1.3. Implications of critical dynamics for experiments are predicted. We investigate the long-time behavior of the motion of a wave packet. Furthermore, electron-electron and electron-phonon scattering rates are calculated. For the latter, we predict a change of the temperature dependence for low T due to η. The electron-electron scattering rate is found to be linear in T and depends on the dimensionless conductance at the critical point.     

A non-contact FBG vibration sensor with double differential temperature compensation

This paper has presented a non-contact fiber Bragg grating (FBG) vibration sensor with double differential temperature compensation. Two FBGs and two states of the sensor have been employed to achieve double differential temperature compensation. Based on magnetic coupling and FBG sensing principle, it can be used to realize non-contact measurement of vibration of the rotating shaft. Experimental results show that the working band ranges are within 0–150 Hz; the sensitivity is ?0.67 pm/µm, and the linearity is 3.87 % within a range of 2–2.6 mm. The fitting equation of temperature compensation which is caused by structural inflation can be expressed as: Δλ ₁′ ? Δλ ₂′ = 1.51 × T ? 32.97. When used to amend a temperature error, the sensor’s temperature error will be reduced to 1.19 % in the range of 25–60 °C.     

热磁预处理对Ni-Mn-Ga单晶磁学和力学性能的影响

研究了预先热磁处理对Ni_503Mn_287Ga₂₁单晶的磁学和力学性能的影响.首先将样品加热到居里温度之上让其冷却,冷却方式分为两种：一种是施加一定大小的磁场从高于居里温度冷却至室温,另一种是在样品经历顺磁-铁磁相变后但还未发生奥氏体-马氏体相变前施加相同大小和方向的磁场并冷却至室温.室温时的拉伸-压缩实验结果表明单晶样品在经历前一种处理后,其可逆应变、磁化强度的变化 （ΔM）比后一种处理的相应值要小很多.在后一种热磁处理的样品中,顺磁-铁磁相变发生后形成了自发磁畴,但这种磁畴不具有择优取向.在顺磁-铁磁相变结束后施加磁场,容易导致择优的马氏体准单畴出现,从而表现出大的可逆应变和ΔM.但对于前者,我们认为样品从居里温度降到室温过程中,其中的磁畴在相同的磁场作用下获得择优生长,形成大磁畴,导致磁诱导的强各向异性.这种择优取向的大磁畴在随后马氏体相变期间影响着马氏体的自发排列方式,不利于马氏体准单畴的出现,结果导致较小的可逆应变和ΔM. 关键词： 磁和力学锻炼 Ni-Mn-Ga单晶 铁磁和马氏体相变     

Critical behaviour in the commensurate-incommensurate phase transition of pure and γ-irradiated LiRbSO4 crystals

The effect of γ-irradiation on the incommensurate phase of LiRbSO₄ crystals has been studied by measuring the specific heat C_p . As a result of γ-irradiation, the values of C_p decreased and the transition temperature T_c shifted to lower values. The values of ΔH and ΔS decreased with increasing dose rate. The results are explained on the basis of an energy change due to induced lattice defects.     

Superconductivity in amorphous thin films of tin–copper

The properties of the superconducting state in the amorphous Sn_1?xCu_x thin films were characterized. The concentration of copper changes in the range from 0.08 to 0.41. The calculations were conducted in the framework of the strong-coupling formalism, wherein the Eliashberg functions determined in the tunnel experiment were used. The value of the Coulomb pseudopotential equal to 0.1 was adopted. It will be shown that the critical temperature (T_C) decreases from 7 to 3.9 K. The ratio, R_Δ = 2Δ(0)/k_BT_C, differs from the BCS value: R_Δ ∈ <4.4, 3.95>, where Δ(0) represents the order parameter. Similarly behave the ratios: R_C = ΔC(T_C)/C^N(T_C) ∈ <2.2, 1.75> and R_H = T_CC^N(T_C)/H²_C(0) ∈ <0.141, 0.154>. The parameter ΔC(T_C) is the specific heat jump, C^N(T_C) denotes the specific heat of the normal state and H_C(0) is the thermodynamic critical field.     

Effect of surface orientation and thickness on the magnetization of anisotropic FCC ferromagnetic films

The dependence on temperature of the layer magnetization of a Heisenberg ferromagnetic ultrathin film in presence of magnetocrystalline single-ion anisotropy was theoretically investigated in the framework of a Green's function approach using the random phase approximation (RPA). The effect of surface orientation and of film thickness N on the Curie temperature T_C was carefully investigated in the case of face centered cubic (FCC) films: the steepest increase of T_C(N) was found in the case of the FCC(1 1 1) orientation and the smoothest in the FCC(1 1 0) one. Our results for T_C(N) were successfully fitted by a finite-size scaling relation [T_C(∞)−T_C(N)]/T_C(N)=(N/N₀)^−λ, giving a shift exponent λ≃1.5, irrespectively of the surface orientation. Finally, the temperature evolution of the magnetization profile was analyzed, as well as its limiting shape at T_C.     

Thermal conductivity of fluids with steeply repulsive potentials

We consider the thermal conductivity of steeply repulsive inverse power fluids (SRP) in which the particles interact with a pair potential, φ(r) = ε(σ/r)ⁿ. The time correlation function for the heat flux, C_λ(t), and the time average, C_λ(0) are calculated numerically by molecular dynamics simulations, and accurate expressions for these are also derived for the SRP fluid. We show, by molecular dynamics simulations, that close to the hard-sphere limit this time correlation function has the same analytic form as for the shear and pressure correlation functions for the shear and bulk viscosity, i.e. C_λ(t)/C_λ(0) = 1 ?T* (nt*)² + 0((nt*)⁴), where T* = k _B T/ε, is the reduced temperature, k _B is Boltzmann's constant and t* = (ε/σ²)^1/2 t is the reduced time. The thermal conductivity for the limiting case of hard spheres is numerically very close to that given by the traditional Enskog relation. At low densities the normalized relaxation times are typically largest for the thermal conductivity, followed by shear and then bulk viscosity. Close to the maximum fluid density, the latter two increase rapidly with density (especially for the shear) but continue a monotonic decline for the thermal conductivity. This reflects the relative insensitivity of the thermal conductivity to the approach to the fluid-solid phase boundary.     

On the critical non-additivity driving segregation of asymmetric binary hard sphere fluids

A previously proposed version of thermodynamic perturbation theory, appropriate for singular pair interactions between particles, is applied to binary mixtures of hard spheres with non-additive diameters. The critical non-additivity Δ_C required to drive fluid–fluid phase separation is determined as a function of the ratio ξ ≤ 1 of the diameters of the two species. Δ_C(ξ) is found to decrease with ξ and to go through a minimum for ξ ? 0.015 before increasing sharply as ξ → 0, irrespective of the total packing-fraction η of the mixture. These results are the basis of an estimate of the range of size ratios for which a binary mixture of additive hard spheres exhibit a fluid–fluid miscibility gap. This range is conjectured to be 0.01 ? ξ ? 0.1.     

Thermal dileptons from quark and hadron phases of an expanding fireball

A fireball model with time evolution based on transport calculations is used to examine the dilepton emission rate of an ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collision. A transition from hadronic matter to a quark-gluon plasma at a critical temperature T _C between 130-170 MeV is assumed. We also consider a possible mixed phase scenario. We include thermal corrections to the hadronic spectra below T _C and use perturbation theory above T _C. The sensitivity of the spectra with respect to the freeze-out temperature, the initial fireball temperature and the critical temperature is investigated.
