A study of radiation effects of 9 and 12 MeV protons on Chinese CMOS image sensor degradation

The 9 and 12MeV proton irradiations of the Chinese CMOS Image Sensor in the fluence range from 1×10⁹ to 4×10×10cm^－2 and 1×10⁹ to 2×1012cm^－2 have been carried out respectively. The color pictures and dark output images are captured, and the average brightness of dark output images is calculated. The anti-irradiation fluence thresholds for 9 and 12~MeV protons are about 4×10¹⁰ and 2×10¹² cm^－2, respectively. These can be explained by the change of the concentrations of irradiation-induced electron-hole pairs and vacancies in the various layers of CMOS image sensor calculated by the TRIM simulation program.     

钨辐射损伤随辐照剂量变化的重离子辐照模拟研究

采用重离子辐照模拟方法和正电子湮没寿命测量技术研究了钨辐射损伤随辐照剂量的变化。20,60和90dpa（每个原子的位移次数）辐照损伤水平的实验结果表明,辐照在钨中产生单空位、双空位、位错和空位团等缺陷;随辐照剂量的增大,单空位、双空位和位错浓度增加,空位团的尺度和浓度都随之增大。Radiation damage in W has been studied as a function of irradiation dose by heavy ion simulation and positron annihilation lifetime measurement. The experimental results of 20, 60 and 90 dpa irradiations illustrate that the mono-and di-vacancies, dislocations and vacancy clusters are produced by the irradiation. The concentrations of the mono-and di-vacancies and dislocations and both the concentration and size of the vacancy clusters or voids all increase with the increasing of the irradiation dose.     

LaFeO3纳米材料电四极超精细相互作用TDPAC测量

用时间微分扰动角关联方法测量了LaFeO3纳米中的电四极超精细相互作用. 扰动角关联探针核14057La 14058Ce由139La(n,γ)140La反应产生, 实验只观察到一个La晶位的四极相互作用. 在室温下， 20和40 nm 以及晶体LaFeO3的四极相互作用频率ω0分别为 687.4 , 698.3 和742.9 Mrad/s , 频率分布宽度系数σ分别为 0.014, 0.009和0.001, 电场梯度不对称系数η=0. 实验数据表明, 电场梯度主轴与晶轴方向一致; 样品具有菱方结构, 晶体到纳米发生菱方向正交结构转变, 纳米尺度越小, 越趋于正交结构; 由于邻近核的扰动, 随纳米颗粒增大, 四极相互作用频率分布宽度系数σ变小, 晶体时最小. The quadrupole interactions in the nano and crystalline LaFeO3 perovskites have been investigated by TDPAC. The TDPAC probing nuclei 14057La 14058Ce were produced through the nuclear reaction 139La(n.γ)140La at the CIAE heavy water experimental reactor. One electric quadrupole interaction was detected for each material, which is assigned to the La site. The quadrupole interaction frequencies of 687.4, 698.3 and 742.9 Mrad/s with a distribution coefficient of 0.014, 0.009 and 0.001 were observed at room temperature for the 20 and 40 nm nano LaFeO3 and crystalline LaFeO3, respectively. The fitting yielded the EFG asymmetry parameter η=0, which indicates that the principal axes of the EFG is aligned with the crystallographic axes. The experimental results show that the structure of crystalline LaFeO3 is rhombohedral, the changing of the structure towards the orthorhombic structure takes place from the crystalline LaFeO3 to the nano LaFeO3, and the smaller the nano grain size, the larger the change. The frequency distribution is caused by the perturbation of the neighboring atoms, and thus, the distribution coefficient increases with decreasing the nano grain size and the crystalline LaFeO3 arrives at its maximum.     

PdAgHx金属氢化物正电子湮没研究

在77—295 K温区和氢浓度0—0.35范围采用正电子湮没寿命测量方法研究了Pd0.75Ag0.25H_x氢化物合金. 充氢后正电子湮没寿命谱可以用两个寿命成分表征. 短寿命成分τ1不随温度和氢浓度变化, 是自由正电子湮没寿命; 长寿命成分τ2及其相对强度I2不随温度变化, 但随氢浓度的增加分别增大和减小, τ2是氢气泡捕获的正电子湮没寿命, τ2增大和I2减小说明随氢浓度增大氢聚集成的气泡的尺度增大, 而浓度减小. 实验结果表明, 氢脆的微观机理是氢气泡致脆. The metal hydride PdAgHx with a hydrogen concentration x ranging from 0 to 0.35 has been investigated by positron annihilation lifetime method in the temperature region between 77 K and 295 K. The measured lifetime spectra in metal hydride PdAgHx are characterized by two lifetimes τ1 and τ2. The short lifetime τ1 is independent of both hydrogen concentration and temperature, which is ascribed to the annihilation lifetime of free positrons. The long lifetime τ2 and its intensity I2 do not change with temperature, while τ2 increases and I2 decreases with increasing of hydrogen concentration. τ2 is attributed to the lifetime of positrons trapped at the hydrogen bubble. The increase of τ2 indicates the growth of the hydrogen bubble, and the decrease of I2 shows the reduction of the hydrogen bubble concentration. The experimental result shows a microscopic mechanism that the hydrogen bubble produced causes hydrogen embrittlement.

The g-factors of the positive parity rotational levels up to spin Ⅰ= 41/2 in ^83Y have been measured by a transient-magnetic-field ion implantation perturbed angular distribution method. The experimentally measured g-factors show the g9/2 proton alignment followed by the g9/2 neutron alignment. The measured g-factors are in good agreement with the results calculated by an empirical formula based on the cranking shell model.

PAC investigation of qudropole interaction in nano-soft magnetic material Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9

The quadrupole interaction in nano-soft magnetic material Fe_73.5Cu₁Nb₃Si_13.5B₉ has been studied by perturbed angular correlation using ⁶²Zn probe nuclei from the ISOL radioactive nuclear beam facility at CIAE HI-13 tandem accelerator. Two quadrupole interaction frequencies ω₀₁=440 Mrad/s with a distribution width σ=0 and ω₀₂=90 Mrad/s with a width σ=0.48 are obtained. The fractions of ω₀₁ and ω₀₂ are 38% and 62%, respectively. The measured quadruple interaction parameters indicate that 62% of the implanted ⁶²Zn are located in the grain boundary and 32% in the grain.     

Enhancement of β^＋-Decay Rate of ^22Na in Metal Pd at Low Temperature

Temperature dependence of nuclear decays in metallic environments is a controversial issue. We measured the temperature dependence of the β^＋-decay half-life of ^22Na implanted into the metal host of palladium. It is found that the β^＋-decay half-life of ^22Na in the metal Pd cooled to T = 15 K is shorter by 0.46（14）% than that at room temperature. The result is consistent in sign with, but dearly smaller than, the estimated one by the Debye model.     

Measurements of g-Factor of Rotational Band States in 82Sr

The g-factors of the positive parity rotational states up to spin I = 8^＋ for the ground state band in even-even nuclei S2Sr have been measured by a transient-magnetic-field ion implantation perturbed angular distribution method. The experimentally measured 9-factors increase with the increasing spin along the band and show that the g9/2 proton aligns only and the alignment starts from I =6^＋. The measured g-factors also indicate that the nuclei ^82Sr gain their spins by the quasi-proton alignment at higher spin.
