Raman properties embeddedof GaSb nanoparticlesin SiO2 films

The Raman shifts of nanocrystalline GaSb excited by an Ar^ ion laser at wavelengths 514.5, 496.5, 488.0, 476.5,and 457.9nm are studied by an SPEX-1403 laser Raman spectrometer respectively, and they are explained by phonon confinement, tensile stress, resonant Raman scattering and quantum size effects. The Stokes and anti-Stokes Raman spectra of GaSb nanocrystals strongly support the Raman feature of GaSb nanocrystals. The calculated optical spectra compare well with experimental data on Raman scattering GaSb nanocrystals.     

Electron Holography of Barrier Structures in Co／ZrAlOx／Co Magnetic Tunnel Junctions

We investigate the potential profiles and elemental distribution of barriers in Co/ZrAlOx/Co magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) using electron holography (EH) and scanning transmission electron microscopy. The MTJ barriers are introduced by oxidizing a bilayer consisting with a uniform 0.45-nm Al layer and a wedge-shaped Zr layer (0-2 nm). From the scanning transmission electron microscopy, AlOx and ZrOx layers are mixed together, indicating that compact AlOx layer cannot be formed in such a bilayer structure of barriers. The Eli results reveal that there are no sharp interfaces between the barrier and magnetic electrodes, which may be responsible for a smaller tunnelling magnetoresistance compared with the MTJs of Co/AlOx/Co.     

Nano-tribological study on a super-hydrophobic film formed on rough aluminium substrates

A novel super-hydrophobic stearic acid (STA) film with a water contact angle of 166^o was prepared by chemical adsorption on aluminum wafer coated with polyethyleneimine (PEI) film. The micro-tribological behavior of the super-hydrophobic STA monolayer was compared with that of the polished and PEI-coated Al surfaces. The effect of relative humidity on the adhesion and friction was investigated as well. It was found that the STA monolayer showed decreased friction, while the adhesive force was greatly decreased by increasing the surface roughness of the Al wafer to reduce the contact area between the atomic force microscope (AFM) tip and the sample surface to be tested. Thus the friction and adhesion of the Al wafer was effectively decreased by generating the STA monolayer, which indicated that it could be feasible and rational to prepare a surface with good adhesion resistance and lubricity by properly controlling the surface morphology and the chemical composition. Both the adhesion and friction decreased as the relative humidity was lowered from 65% to 10%, though the decrease extent became insignificant for the STA monolayer.

Co和稳定元素对Nd3(Fe,Co,M)29 (M=Ti,V,Cr) 化合物结构和磁性的影响

利用x射线衍射和磁测量研究了不同稳定元素Co以及Ti,V和Cr替代对Nd3Fe29-x-yCoxMy(M=Ti,V,Cr)化合物结构和磁性的影响.研究发现:每一个稳定元素都有一替代量极限,在此极限以内所有化合物均为Nd3(Fe,Ti)29型结构,A2/m空间群.不同稳定元素的溶解极限不同.Co的替代量与稳定元素有关,当以Cr作为稳定元素时,Cr的替代量随着Co含量的提高而提高,直到得到纯Co基3:29相化合物.Ti和V作为稳定元素时,Co原子的最大替代量分别为6.63和12.所有Nd3(Fe,Co,M)29(M=Ti,V,Cr)化合物在室温下均表现为平面各向异性.Nd3Fe26.8-xCoxV2.2的居里温度TC和饱和磁化强度Ms随着Co含量的增加而单调增加,自旋重取温度随Co含量增加而呈上升趋势,但在x=6处有一最小值,这可能与Co的择优占位有关;而Nd3Fe29-x-yCoxCry的居里温度和饱和磁化强度随着Co含量的增加先增加后降低,只在x=0和x=6处观察到自旋重取向现象.     

走近纳米科技

 纳米科技于20世纪70年代兴起,进入21世纪越来越被大家耳熟。纳米科技在促进科技进步,提高社会文明程度,改善人类生存质量,更新对物质世界的认知及观念上扮演了举足轻重的角色。纳米是长度单位。一纳米为一米的十亿分之一,如果你的拇指指甲盖宽14毫米,这个比例就相当于拇指指甲盖宽度与地球直径间的比例。纳米科技所接触、研究、开发的是100纳米～0.1纳米范围内物质的性质和应用。一个分子或一个原子大小的数量级大致在10纳米。因此,纳米科技也可以说是在分子水平上观察、分析、研究物质的物理、化学性质并加以开发利用。
