Observation of the hot GDR in neutron-deficient thorium evaporation residues

The giant dipole resonance built on excited states was observed in very fissile nuclei in coincidence with evaporation residues. The reaction ⁴⁸Ca + ¹⁷⁶Yb populated evaporation residues of mass A=213–220 with a cross section of 200 μb at 259 MeV. The extracted giant dipole resonance parameters are in agreement with theoretical predictions for this mass region.

Excited-state dynamics of Yb in LiCaAlF6 single crystal

Single crystals of Yb²⁺-doped LiCaAlF₆ were grown by the Czochralski technique under CF₄ atmosphere. Photoluminescence, thermally stimulated luminescence and decay kinetics of Yb²⁺ centre in the LiCaAlF₆ host were measured in the 4–300 K temperature interval. Phenomenological two excited-state-level model is introduced to obtain quantitative characteristics of the excited state dynamics of Yb²⁺. The role of Yb²⁺ centre in trapping processes is discussed. Moreover, defect centres related to LiCaAlF₆ host were found.

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies of Yb14MnSb11 and Yb14ZnSb11

Measurements of core and valence electronic states of single crystals of the rare earth transition metal Zintl phases Yb₁₄MnSb₁₁ and Yb₁₄ZnSb₁₁ were performed using the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy station of Beamline 7 at the Advanced Light Source. Sample surfaces of Yb₁₄MnSb₁₁ and Yb₁₄ZnSb₁₁ were measured as received, after Ar⁺ ion bombardment, and after cleaving in situ. The single crystal structure of Yb₁₄ZnSb₁₁ is also reported. Both compounds are air-sensitive and show Yb³⁺ due to surface oxidation. In the case of Yb₁₄MnSb₁₁, there is no evidence for Yb³⁺ that would be intrinsic to the sample, consistent with previously reported X-ray magnetic circular dichroism studies. Detailed analyses of the Yb₁₄ZnSb₁₁ surfaces reveal a significant contribution of both Yb³⁺ and Yb²⁺ 4f states in the valence band region. This result is predicted for the Zn analog by Zintl counting rules and support the mixed valency of Yb for Yb₁₄ZnSb₁₁. Further detailed analysis of the core and valence band structure of both Yb₁₄MnSb₁₁ and Yb₁₄ZnSb₁₁ is presented.     

Real-time monitoring of Yb vapor density using an extended cavity violet diode laser

Based on laser absorption spectroscopy (LAS), we developed a vapor density monitor for controlling the vaporization rate of Yb using a tunable diode laser. The laser source consisted of an extended cavity violet diode laser which has an emission wavelength of 398.8 nm coincident with the Yb absorption transition line, 6s(2) 1S(0)-6s6p 1P(1). The light emitted from the diode laser was transmitted across an atomic vapor column generated by heating the Yb metal, while the laser frequency was scanned across the atomic transition line. By comparing the amount of incident light to the amount of light transmitted after the light passed through the vapor column, the vapor density was determined using the Beer's law. From the experimental results, we demonstrated that the diode-laser-based LAS operated successfully for the real-time monitoring of the Yb vapor density.
