Behavior and process of background signal formation of hydrogen,carbon, nitrogen,and oxygen in silicon wafers during depth profiling using dual-beam TOF-SIMS

The behavior and mechanism of background signals during depth profiling of atmospheric elements using dual-beam time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) have been experimentally investigated for silicon wafers. The background signals of atmospheric elements were found to be inversely proportional to the sputtering rate. Most of the background signals are largely attributable to the accumulation of components through adsorption and ion bombardment in the pre-equilibrium state. On the other hand, the contribution of real-time adsorption during the instant after the last sputtering in the equilibrium state is negligible under the present experimental conditions. H₂O is dominant in the background formation process of hydrogen and oxygen, which is supported by the higher adsorption coefficients. The background levels of carbon and nitrogen are lower than those of hydrogen and oxygen. Furthermore, the background signal of carbon with respect to the sputtering rate shows a different trend than the other elements. This could be attributed to accumulation in the pre-equilibrium state. These results indicate that the background levels can be lowered close to those of dynamic-SIMS by using an extremely high sputtering rate in dual-beam TOF-SIMS.

流变岩体中让压支护作用下隧道力学行为研究

高地应力深埋软岩隧道大变形问题已成为隧道工程建设领域的突出难题. 根据高地应力深埋软岩隧道的变形特征, 基于"围岩能量吸收、变形释放"的让压支护是解决软岩隧道大变形问题的有效方法. 针对流变岩体中深埋圆形隧道在让压支护作用下的力学响应问题, 通过引入分数阶微积分理论, 采用Abel黏壶元件建立了改进的分数阶Burgers蠕变模型来表征围岩的时效变形. 此外, 通过在让压支护不同变形阶段引入刚度修正系数, 克服了传统支护未能考虑围岩变形释放的问题. 据此, 本文推导了在考虑支护延迟安装影响下, 不同变形阶段围岩与让压支护相互作用的解析解. 为了验证理论研究的正确性, 对一算例进行了不同解答及工程结果的比对, 吻合较好. 最后, 参数研究结果表明: 围岩与让压支护间的相互作用受蠕变本构模型分数阶阶数影响较大. 隧道的位移或支护压力与让压位移、支护刚度修正系数间存在线性比例关系, 但由于刚度修正系数仅保持在较小的变化范围内, 隧道的位移或支护压力变化并不显著.      

皮肤组织容积脉搏波400~1000 nm光谱特性仿真研究

根据皮肤组织解剖结构特性建立了六层层状模型,并给出了皮肤组织各层的特性参数;考虑了氧合血红蛋白和还原血红蛋白的吸收特性,依据皮肤组织各层的水、血、脂肪、血氧饱和度含量以及血管大小给出了皮肤组织各层的光谱吸收系数;对不同波长散射系数做了适当简化,给出了皮肤组织各层的光谱散射系数。利用蒙特卡罗方法仿真血管组织在收缩与舒张两种状态下, 400~1 000 nm波长光在皮肤组织多层模型中的传输过程,并通过统计大量光子的分布特性,获得了皮肤组织光谱反射系数,并利用模拟所得的两种状态下的反射系数计算得到了光谱容积脉搏波幅度。仿真结果表明,当入射光强一定时,绿光的容积脉搏波幅度优于红光和蓝光。通过计算不同波长光沿皮肤组织深度方向光能流率衰减为1/e时对应的皮肤组织深度,获得了皮肤组织光谱穿透深度。结果显示,血管舒张状态下蓝光和绿光的穿透深度较小,蓝光大部分只能达到表皮层,绿光能到达微循环层,红光可直达真皮层。考虑到光在皮肤组织中传播包含了一个从收缩到舒张的动态过程,基于此,根据穿透深度定义了脉搏波信号产生深度,利用血管舒张与收缩两种不同状态下的穿透深度计算得到了光谱产生深度。结果表明,不同波长光产生深度大于其穿透深度,蓝光产生深度较浅,且其受到的血液吸收调制较小,因而其获得的脉搏信号易受噪声干扰;红光的容积脉搏波产生深度较大,但是相比于绿光其受血液吸收调制较小,且绿光产生深度足够达到真皮血管层,因而红光容积脉搏波的幅度小于绿光。上述仿真结果明确了皮肤组织部分光谱特性,为皮肤组织多光谱容积脉搏波的精确获取及其他相关研究提供了一定的理论基础。     

Study of water uptake in poly(ether ether ketone) irradiated by MeV O+ and Au+ ions

Poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) was irradiated with 4?MeV O⁺ and 5 and 10?MeV Au⁺ ions to the fluences from 10¹² to 10^14?cm^?2 and then treated in 5 M/l water solution of LiCl for one month at room temperature. After drying and removal of LiCl surface contamination, the depth distribution of LiCl embeded in PEEK was measured by the neutron depth profilig method (NDP) sensitive to ⁶Li isotope. Embeded LiCl is believed to map distribution of water diffusing into PEEK interior. The results show that the PEEK irradiated to the fluences above 1.10¹³cm^?2 is prone to water penetration to the depths of few microns. On the pristine PEEK and that irradiated to lower ion fluences only a surface Li contamination is observed.     

受限亚音速气流中倒置悬臂壁板静气弹稳定性的理论及实验研究

板壳结构在航空航天、高速列车、能量采集等诸多工程领域已经得到了广泛应用. 将悬臂壁板倒置于轴向气流中并在壁板周围流场中设置刚性壁面可有效地调控壁板的失稳速度, 是俘能器优化设计的重要措施之一. 但针对刚性壁面作用下亚音速气流中倒置悬臂壁板的失稳机制仍需要开展深入研究. 本文以受限亚音速气流中倒置的二维悬臂壁板为对象, 以理论分析及风洞实验为手段, 研究了单侧刚性壁面效应对倒置悬臂壁板静态失稳特性的影响规律. 在理论分析中, 首先应用镜像函数法来处理壁面约束条件, 基于算子理论研究获得了以Possio积分方程为表征的壁板气动力, 壁面效应实际表征为一包含移位Tricomi算子的复合算子; 然后将壁板失稳方程的求解问题转化为定区间上的函数逼近问题; 最后, 依据Wererstrass定理并利用最小二乘法求解该最优函数, 以获得系统的失稳临界参数. 在试验研究中依据压杆稳定原理设计了壁板静态失稳的测试方法并完成了风洞实验. 理论分析结果表明, 壁板会发生发散(静气动弹性)失稳, 临界动压随壁板与壁面间距的增加而增大并最终趋于稳定(无壁面情况); 通过理论与风洞实验结果的对比分析, 验证了本文气动力及理论分析的适用性及准确性. 针对倒置悬臂壁板结构的气动弹性失稳问题, 本文提出的方法不涉及系统方程的离散及特征值求解问题, 而是将其转化为了定区间上的函数逼近问题进行求解, 这为弹性结构静气动弹性失稳问题的研究提供了一个可行的新思路.      

Hydrodynamics of flow over a transversely oscillating circular cylinder beneath a free surface

In this paper, hydrodynamic force coefficients and wake vortex structures of uniform flow over a transversely oscillating circular cylinder beneath a free surface were numerically investigated by an adaptive Cartesian cut-cell/level-set method. At a fixed Reynolds number, 100, a series of simulations covering three Froude numbers, two submergence depths, and three oscillation amplitudes were performed over a wide range of oscillation frequency. Results show that, for a deeply submerged cylinder with sufficiently large oscillation amplitudes, both the lift amplitude jump and the lift phase sharp drop exist, not accompanied by significant changes of vortex shedding timing. The near-cylinder vortex structure changes when the lift amplitude jump occurs. For a cylinder oscillating beneath a free surface, larger oscillation amplitude or submergence depth causes higher time-averaged drag for frequency ratio (=oscillation frequency/natural vortex shedding frequency) greater than 1.25. All near-free-surface cases exhibit negative time-averaged lift the magnitude of which increases with decreasing submergence depth. In contrast to a deeply submerged cylinder, occurrences of beating in the temporal variation of lift are fewer for a cylinder oscillating beneath a free surface, especially for small submergence depth. For the highest Froude number investigated, the lift frequency is locked to the cylinder oscillation frequency for frequency ratios higher than one. The vortex shedding mode tends to be double-row for deep and single-row for shallow submergence. Proximity to the free surface would change or destroy the near-cylinder vortex structure characteristic of deep-submergence cases. The lift amplitude jump is smoother for smaller submergence depth. Similar to deep-submergence cases, the vortex shedding frequency is not necessarily the same as the primary-mode frequency of the lift coefficient. The frequency of the induced free surface wave is exactly the cylinder oscillation frequency. The trends of wave length variation with the Froude number and frequency ratio agree with those predicted by the linear theory of small-amplitude free surface waves.     

Charge Reconfiguration in Isolated Quantum Dot Arrays

A high level of tunability and control over arrays of quantum dots are key ingredients toward the goal of scalable‐based qubit architectures. Increasing array size simultaneously increases the parameter space and therefore the tuning complexity. The electron reconfiguration behavior of quantum dot arrays isolated from the electron reservoirs is studied experimentally. Isolating a quantum dot array from the reservoirs does not only enable a high degree of control over the tunnel couplings but at the same time drastically simplifies the stability diagrams for small numbers of electrons trapped in the array. Experimental results on double, triple, and quadruple quantum dot arrays are presented and complementary model calculations allow the identification of all transitions observed in the experiment. Highly tunable long‐range transitions are observed in isolated triple quantum dots and evidence of higher‐order cotunneling is found for the quadruple quantum dot array.     

FT-IR surface analysis of poly [(4-hydroxybenzoic)-ran-(2-hydroxy-6-naphthoic acid)] fiber – A short review

Instrumental techniques such as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) constitute well-studied methodologies for polymer characterization, including polymeric fibers. However, a relatively short number of scientific publications involve the characterization of commercial Poly [(4-hydroxybenzoic)-ran-(2-hydroxy-6-naphthoic acid)] (Vectran™) fiber and its surface species. The majority of the published infrared studies uses the medium infrared region (MIR) associated to the Attenuated total reflection (ATR) method. In this scenario, this short review addresses the characteristics of Vectran™ fiber, sample depth data of each FT-IR spectrum mode, reflection and photo-acoustic spectroscopy (PAS), including near infrared (NIR) analysis. This paper addresses also researches on the characterization of Vectran™ by several FT-IR analysis conditions aiming to contribute to future studies. This brief review deals with methodologies developed in the last decade and published by several scientific research groups, emphasizing studies conducted in the last five years. A critical assessment and trends are also included.
