超强激光与固体气体复合靶作用产生高能氦离子

激光氦离子源产生的MeV能量的氦离子因有望用于聚变反应堆材料辐照损伤的模拟研究而得到关注.目前激光驱动氦离子源的主要方案是采用相对论激光与氦气射流作用加速高能氦离子,但这种方案在实验上难以产生具有前向性和准单能性、数MeV能量、高产额的氦离子束,而这些氦离子束特性是材料辐照损伤研究中十分关注的.不同于上述激光氦离子产生方法,我们提出了一种利用超强激光与固体-气体复合靶作用产生氦离子的新方法.利用这种方法,在实验上,采用功率密度5×10~(18)W/cm~2的皮秒脉宽的激光脉冲与铜-氦气复合靶作用,产生了前向发射的2.7 MeV的准单能氦离子束,能量超过0.5 MeV的氦离子产额约为10~(13)/sr.二维粒子模拟显示,氦离子在靶背鞘场加速和类无碰撞冲击波加速两种加速机理共同作用下得到加速.同时粒子模拟还显示氦离子截止能量与超热电子温度成正比.     

线型离子阱中空间电荷效应的理论分析

Mechanisms of oxidation-reduction processes on metal and oxide surfaces under ion bombardment

Surface oxidation occurs if metals are bombarded with low-energy (1–5 keV) ions of a chemically active gas (oxygen) in vacuum. It is ascertained that ion bombardment leads to the generation of lower, intermediate, and higher oxides. The composition and thickness of an oxidized layer depend on the metal reactivity and the dose and energy of oxygen ions. The mechanism underlying the ion-beam oxidation of metal surfaces is proposed. Surface reduction is observed if higher oxides are bombarded with low-energy (1–5 keV) ions of inert gases (argon and helium) in vacuum. It is revealed that ion bombardment not only generates intermediate and higher oxides but sometimes gives rise to surface metallization. The composition and thickness of the reduced layer are determined by the oxide type, the kind of inert gases, and the dose and energy of bombardment. The mechanism describing the ion-beam reduction of higher metal oxide surfaces is proposed.     

Low optical insertion-loss and vacuum-pressure all-fiber acetylene cell based on hollow-core photonic crystal fiber

We report a novel and easy-to-implement hollow-core photonic crystal fiber cell fabrication technique based on helium diffusion through silica. The formed gas cells combine low optical insertion loss (1.8 dB) and vacuum acetylene pressure (microbar regime). The estimates of the final gas pressure, using both Voigt interpolation and electromagnetically induced transparency, show a good match with the initial fitting pressure.     

Thermalization of199Hg ion macromotion by a light background gas in an RF quadrupole trap

The largest systematic uncertainty in the performance of atomic frequency standards using a cloud of ions stored in an rf quadrupole trap is the second-order Doppler shift which depends on ion temperature and trapping parameters. This paper presents evidence that cooling the ions by collisions with atoms of a background gas light compared to the ions results in the condensation of the ions into a cloud of almost uniform density determined by space charge versus potential well forces. In this condition the second-order Doppler shift is simple to calculate and is found to depend only on readily measured characteristics of the ion cloud. This along with already observed good signal-to-noise ratio shows that the frequency standard we have constructed using the hyperfine splitting of singly ionized¹⁹⁹Hg, with helium cooling can have an order of magnitude better performance in accuracy, stability, and reproducibility than presently available commercial cesium beam standards.     

Monte Carlo Simulations of the Influence of Ion‐Neutral Collisions on the Ion Currents Collected by Electrostatic Probes

We have carried out Monte Carlo simulation of the motion of Ar⁺ ions in the space charge sheath surrounding a cylindrical Langmuir probe. The ion currents to the probe have been calculated from these simulations and the percentages of ions crossing the sheath boundary that are collected by the probe have been determined. It has been shown that the collisions of ions with neutral helium gas atoms in the sheath increase the percentage of ions collected by the probe above that predicted by collisionless orbital motion limited current (OMLC) theory at lower helium pressure and decrease this percentage below the OMLC theory prediction at higher helium pressure. It has been shown also that the ion current almost does not depend on probe radius at higher helium pressures. The results of the simulations have been compared with recent Langmuir probe measurements made in flowing afterglow plasmas and with other probe theories.     

Observation of diffusion through ion irradiated Makrofol KG

The features of the latent track in polycarbonate can be analysed by measuring the diffusion constant under ultra high vacuum conditions. Stacks of 30 μm Makrofol KG foils were irradiated with uranium ions of 11.4 MeV/u at the GSI Darmstadt, Germany. We used different fluences from 3·10¹⁰ to 5·10¹¹ ions/cm². The diffusion constant was determined by the time-lag-method [1]. A quadrupole mass filter was used to observe the diffusion of the gas. We measured the diffusion of argon through different foils of each stack at room temperature. In all cases also unirradiated foils were measured. The dependence of the permeability and the diffusion constant on the ion fluence and the energy loss of the ions will be given and indications on the size of latent ion tracks concerning gas diffusion will be discussed.

Experimental investigation of a DC electric field on positron self-trapping in helium gas

Positron lifetime spectra taken in helium gas at 5.5 K and 129 standard densities are compared with Monte Carlo simulations of Farazdel and Epstein. This comparison establishes that the energy threshold for positron self-trapping and the decay rate of the self-trapped state are not affected by an electric field of 52 V/cm. The comparison also suggests a small change in the positron diffusion prior to the self-trapping.
