RAMAN SCATTERING OF α-ET3(ReO4)2 CHARGE-TRANSFER SALT

We describe the results of Haman studies on C=C stretch modes in α-ET₃(ReO₄)₂ charge-transfer salt with the incident laser beam polarised perpendicular and parallel to the large flat face of plate-like crystal. We have assigned central C=C stretch mode at 1454 cm^-1 and ring C=C stretch mode at 1470cm^-1. The change in ring C=C stretch vibration was observed at the metal-insulator transition of α-ET₃(ReO₄)₂ on warming due to the distortion of the ET molecules.     

Investigations of spectroscopic parameters and molecular constants for X1Σg+, w3Δu, and W1Δu electronic states of P2 molecule

The potential energy curves (PECs) of three low-lying electronic states (X¹Σ_g⁺, w³Δ_u, and W¹Δ_u)of P₂ molecule are investigated using the full valence complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) method followed by the highly accurate valence internally contracted multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) approach in conjunction with the correlation-consistent basis set in the valence range. The PECs of the electronic states involved are modified by the Davidson correction and extrapolated to the complete basis set (CBS) limit. With these PECs, the spectroscopic parameters of the three electronic states are determined and compared in detail with the experimental data. The comparison shows that excellent agreement exists between the present results and the available experimental data. The complete vibrational states are computed for the w³Δ_u, and W¹Δ_u electronic states when the rotational quantum number J equals zero and the vibrational level G(v), the inertial rotation constant B_v, and the centrifugal distortion constant D_v of the first 30 vibrational states are reported, which accord well with the experimental data. The present results show that the two-point extrapolation scheme can obviously improve the quality of spectroscopic parameters and molecular constants.     

First-principle study of geometries, electronic structures and vibrational spectra of neutral and anionic onion-like [As@Ni12@As20］

We present results of first-principle study for both neutral and anionic onion-like [As@Ni₁₂@As₂₀］. The ground-states of singly-charged and doubly-charged anions deviate from ideal I_h symmetrical geometry because of Jahn--Teller effect, whereas the triply-charged singlet and neutral quartet have similar stable geometries of I_h symmetry. The infrared and Raman spectra may provide a way to determine various charge states of this molecule with the same symmetry. Based on our systematical calculations, we suggest additional experimental measurements in order to determine the appropriate functional with great confidence, which should be important in the research for future quantum dot devices.     

交叉分子束方法研究H+CH4和H+CD4反应:CH3/CD3的振动激发态产物通道

We study the H+CH₄/CD₄→H₂/HD+CH₃/CD₃ reactions using the time sliced velocity map ion imaging technique. Ion images of the CH₃/CD₃ products were measured by the (2+1) resonance enhanced multi-photon ionization (REMPI) detection method. Besides the CH₃/CD₃ products in the ground state, ion images of the vibrationally excited CH₃/CD₃ products were also observed at two collision energies of 0.72 and 1.06 eV. It is shown that the angular distribution of the products CH₃/CD₃ in vibrationally excited states gradually vary from backward scattering to sideways scattering as the collision energy increases. Compared to the CH₃/CD₃ products in the ground state, the CH₃/CD₃ products in vibrationally excited states tend to be more sideways scattered, indicating that larger impact parameters play a more important role in the vibrationally excited product channels.     

LECTRONIC STRUCTURE STUDIES OF Bi2Sr2CaCu2-xSnxO8+δ SYSTEM

Photoemission measurements have been carried out for Bi₂Sr₂CaCu_2-xSn_xO_8+δ system with conventional x-ray photoemission spectroscopy for core-level spectra and synchrotron radiation photoemission spectroscopy for valence band. With Sn doping, all core levels shift differently in binding energy, and the intensity near fermi energy becomes smaller in valence hand. From the experiment, we can deduce that the shifts of all core levels and valence hands may involve some other mechanisms, such ms electrostatic effects, in addition to binding energy referencing effects. We argue that the chemical environment plays a crucial role in the electronic structure of high-temperature superconductors.     

PHASE TRANSITIONS IN Bi2Sr2(Cu1-zFez)O6+δ

We have investigated, by X-ray diffraction, a series of single crystals of Bi-based oxides with the nominal composition Bi₂Sr₂(Cu_1-zFe_z)O_6+δ(0≤z≤0.55). In this system we observed two structural phase transitions with the increase of the doping content. The first transition, from an incommensurate monoclinic phase to an incommensurate orthorhombic phase, occurs at a doping content of iron z_Fe=0.027. The second one corresponds to a phase transition from an incommensurate orthorhombic phase to a commensurate orthorhombic phase at z_Fe=0.34. The comparison of these results with those for more limited substitutions of Zn and Ni indicates the significant role of the insertion of the extra oxygen in the (Bi-O)_∞ double layers.     

Development and characteristic analysis of a field-plated Al2O3/AlInN/GaN MOS–HEMT

We present an AlInN/AlN/GaN MOS–HEMT with a 3 nm ultra-thin atomic layer deposition (ALD) Al₂O₃ dielectric layer and a 0.3 μm field-plate (FP)-MOS--HEMT. Compared with a conventional AlInN/AlN/GaN HEMT (HEMT) with the same dimensions, a FP-MOS--HEMT with a 0.6 μm gate length exhibits an improved maximum drain current of 1141 mA/mm, an improved peak extrinsic transconductance of 325 mS/mm and effective suppression of gate leakage in both the reverse direction (by about one order of magnitude) and the forward direction (by more than two orders of magnitude). Moreover, the peak extrinsic transconductance of the FP-MOS--HEMT is slightly larger than that of the HEMT, indicating an exciting improvement of transconductance performance. The sharp transition from depletion to accumulation in the capacitance--voltage (C--V) curve of the FP-MOS--HEMT demonstrates a high-quality interface of Al₂O₃/AlInN. In addition, a large off-state breakdown voltage of 133 V, a high field-plate efficiency of 170 V/μ m and a negligible double-pulse current collapse is achieved in the FP-MOS--HEMT. This is attributed to the adoption of an ultra-thin Al₂O₃ gate dielectric and also of a field-plate on the dielectric of an appropriate thickness. The results show a great potential application of the ultra-thin ALD-Al₂O₃ FP-MOS--HEMT to deliver high currents and power densities in high power microwave technologies.     

POSITRON LIFETIME STUDIES OF Y1-xCaxBa2Cu3O7-δ AND Y1-xCaxBa2Cu3-xFexO7-δ

In this paper it is reported that the measurement of the bulk positron lifetime as a function of substitution content x in the temperature range from 70 to 220K was performed in two high-T_c superconducting systems, Y_1-xCa_xBa₂Cu_3-xFe_xO_7-δ and Y_1-xCa_xBa₂Cu₃O_7-δ. It was found that τ_B of both systems decreases significantly with x and the temperature dependence of τ_B is very weak in normal state. In lower temperature region (Tc), a dramatic x-dependent temperature variation of τ_B was observed in the Ca-substituted system: from a decrease of τ_B with decreasing T to an increase of τ_B. With increasing x, the temperature dependence of τ_B remains weak in the Ca- and Fe- substituted systems. Compared with the experimental data of positron lifetime in other substituted systems and the calculation of the positron density distribution, the authors suggest that positron bulk lifetime spectra behaviour can be interpreted by the physical model based on the transfer of electron density between the CuO₂ planes and Cu-O chains. Therefore, the study of positron lifetime spectra provides a useful means to detect the local charge density and to study the correlation between the electronic structure and the high-T_c superconductivity.     

ANISOTROPY OF CRITICAL CURRENT DENSITY IN c-AXIS ORIENTED EPITAXIAL YBa2Cu3O7-δ FILMS

The dependence of critical current density J_c on the angle α between the directions of the applied magnetic field H (which was rotated in the c-axis-I plane) and the in-plane current I was measured on a c-axis oriented epitaxial YBa₂Cu₃O_7-δ films at 81 K, with the magnetic field strength up to 6T. Analysis of the experimental results on the basis of the classical scaling law of pinning force shows that there exist simultaneously planar-pinning and volume-pinning mechanisms, and the contribution of volume pinning increases wish decreasing while that of the planar pinning decreases, We propose that the decrease of Lorentz-force-independent critical current density with increasing H for H∥I results from the suppression of superconductivity by the magnetic field, The fact that the contribution of volume pinning increases with decreasing α also arises from the suppression of superconductivity in CuO₂ plane by the magnetic field.     

EFFECT OF THE Ba VACANCY ON THE FLUX PINNING IN YBaxCu3O7-δ SYSTEM

A series of Y123 single phase samples with various Ba vacancy concentration was prepared by making their Ba contents deviate from the stoichiometric composition. The measurements of their structure, superconductivity and flux pinning behaviour were systematically carried out. It is found that, compared with YBa₂Cu₃O_6.96 sample, the strength of the flux pinning in YBa_xCu₃O_7-δ(1.8≤x<2.0) samples is increased, and that there is an optimum value of Ba vacancy concentration for the maximum flux pinning force density. The possible origin of the flux pinning centers to determine the flux pinning behavior at higher field is discussed in detail. We suggest that the flux pinning effect at lower field may stein from the interaction between the vortex and the surfaces of grains, and that the flux pinning mechanism at higher field belongs to the core interaction.     

Bounds on the magnetic moment of the τ-neutrino via the process e+e-→v(v)γ

Using Breit-Wigner resonance relation,bounds on the magnetic moment of the tau-neutrino are calculated through the reaction e+e-→v(v)γ at the neutral boson pole in the framework of a superstringinspired E6 model which has one extra low-energy neutral gauge boson and a LRSM.     

Polynomial identities,indices, and duality for theN=1 superconformal modelSM(2, 4v)

We prove polynomial identities for theN=1 superconformal modelSM(2, 4v) which generalize and extend the known Fermi/Bose character identities. Our proof uses theq-trinomial coefficients of Andrews and Baxter on the bosonic side and a recently introduced very general method of producing recursion relations forq-series on the fermionic side. We use these polynomials to demonstrate a dual relation underqq ^–1 betweenSM(2, 4v) andM(2v–1, 4v). We also introduce a genralization of the Witten index which is expressible in terms of the Rogers false theta functions.Dedicated to the memory of Claude Itzykson.     

Spectroscopy of XY(5)Z (C(4v)) Molecules: A Tensorial Formalism Adapted to the O(3) superset O(h) superset C(4v) Chain

A tensorial formalism adapted to the case of XY(5)Z symmetric tops has been developed as an extension of the usual one for the octahedral molecules. We use the O(3) superset O(h) superset C(4&v) group chain. All the coupling coefficients and formulas for the computation of matrix elements are given for this chain. Such relations are also deduced in the C(4v) group itself. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Higher-order QED corrections to e^ + e^ - \to v\bar v\gamma at LEP2

The process with a distinctive “photon-plus-missing-energy” signal can serve as an important tool to search for new physics at LEP2. It can be exploited to measure the WWγ coupling, or to search for weakly interacting and invisible (s)particles. For meaningful comparisons of experimental data with theoretical predictions, higher-order QED corrections due to multiphoton emission must be taken into account. In the present paper we explain how the WWγ coupling has been incorporated into the KORALZ Monte Carlo program, which can now be used for simulations of events with higher-order QED corrections. The strategy of how to perform an experimental analysis in the presence of experimental cuts is proposed. The question of systematic uncertainties is addressed and some numerical results for the phenomenologically interesting case of anomalous WWγ couplings are also given.     

High-Resolution Infrared and Millimeter-Wave Study of the Fermi-Coupled v(2) = 1 and v(3) = 2 States of DSiF(3)

The nu(2) (nu(eff.) 854.841 cm(-1)) and 2nu(3) infrared bands (nu(eff.) 840.083 cm(-1)) of DSiF(3) have been studied with a resolution of 2.5 x 10(-3) cm(-1). Moreover, millimeter-wave transitions in the v(2) = 1 and v(3) = 2 states up to J" = 33 have been measured. The assignments and fit of the poorly resolved, compressed cluster-type 2nu(3) IR transitions have been confirmed by a simultaneous study of the 2nu(3)-nu(3) band. The constant W = 5.116 cm(-1) of the Fermi interaction between the v(2) = 1 and v(3) = 2 levels has been determined from frequency effects which are in agreement with relative intensities of the nu(2) and 2nu(3) bands. The deperturbed (B(0) - B(v)) and (C(0) - C(v)) values of the states involved agree with their ab initio predictions within 7% in the worst case. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.     

Uncertainties from fermion masses ine^ + e^ - \to v\bar v\gamma

In the reaction \(e^ + e^ - \to v\bar v\gamma \) , the influence of the unknown masses of heavy fermions for three and four fermion generations is studied, which arises via virtual 1-loop corrections in the framework of the standard model. These masses are the top quark massm _t and in the case of 4 generations the lepton massm t, wherel ^? is theSU(2) partner of the fourth generation neutrino. Increasing the fermion masses from 50 GeV to 250 GeV, the maximum of the total cross section is found to decrease by a few percent.

Coulomb drag between one-dimensional conductors

We have analyzed Coulomb drag between currents of interacting electrons in two parallel one-dimensional conductors of finite length L attached to external reservoirs. For strong coupling, the relative fluctuations of electron density in the conductors acquire energy gap M. At energies larger than gamma = constxv(-)exp(-LM/v(-))/L+gamma(+), where gamma(+) is the impurity scattering rate, and, for L>v(-)/M, where v(-) is the fluctuation velocity, the gap leads to an "ideal" drag with almost equal currents in the conductors. At low energies the drag is suppressed by coherent instanton tunneling, and the zero-temperature transconductance vanishes, indicating the Fermi-liquid behavior.
