添加不同硼源时金刚石的高温高压合成

在压力6.5 GPa、温度1290～1350℃实验条件下,研究了合成体系中分别添加单质硼、六角氮化硼(h-BN)时金刚石的合成.由于合成体系中添加剂的存在,导致所合成的金刚石颜色发生了明显的改变.傅里叶显微红外光谱(FTIR)测试表明,当合成体系中h-BN添加量较少时,所合成金刚石中含有替代式的氮杂质,且金刚石中有sp2杂化的硼-氮、硼-氮-硼结构存在.当合成体系中h-BN添加量达到2 wt;时,金刚石中的氮仅以硼-氮-硼的结构存在.此外,霍尔效应测试结果表明,硼掺杂金刚石具有p型半导体特性,而合成体系中添加h-BN所制备的金刚石表现为绝缘体.     

半导体三量子点中的多透明窗口及弱光孤子的调控

考虑半导体量子点间隧穿耦合效应,研究非对称半导体三量子点分子中的弱探测光的传播特性。线性情况下,由于点间隧穿耦合和外部控制光的协同调控,探测光的吸收特性将出现共振吸收、隧穿诱导透明单窗口、隧穿诱导透明双窗口及隧穿诱导透明三窗口的转变。此外,从反常色散到正常色散的开关效应可通过改变隧穿强度及光学控制场强度来实现。对于非线性情况,发现孤子的振幅随着点间隧穿耦合系数增大呈先增大再减小随即再次增大并减小的波动变化趋势且出现最大振幅及其对应的点间隧穿耦合强度随着外部控制光场的增大而减小。此外,发现孤子的群速度随着耦合强度的增加呈逐渐减小的趋势。     

Dependence of nitrogen vacancy color centers on nitrogen concentration in synthetic diamond

Crystallization of diamond with different nitrogen concentrations was carried out with a FeNiCo-C system at pressure of 6.5 GPa. As the nitrogen concentration in diamond increased, the color of the synthesized diamond crystals changed from colorless to yellow and finally to atrovirens (a dark green). All the Raman peaks for the obtained crystals were located at about 1330 cm^-1 and contained only the sp³ hybrid diamond phase. Based on Fourier transform infrared results, the nitrogen concentration of the colorless diamond was < 1 ppm and absorption peaks corresponding to nitrogen impurities were not detected. However, the C-center nitrogen concentration of the atrovirens diamond reached 1030 ppm and the value of A-center nitrogen was approximately 180 ppm with a characteristic absorption peak at 1282 cm^-1. Furthermore, neither the NV⁰ nor the NV^- optical color center existed in diamond crystal with nitrogen impurities of less than 1 ppm by photoluminescence measurement. However, Ni-related centers located at 695 nm and 793.6 nm were observed in colorless diamond. The NE8 color center at 793.6 nm has more potential for application than the common NV centers. NV⁰ and NV^- optical color centers coexist in diamond without any additives in the synthesis system. Importantly, only the NV^- color center was noticed in diamond with a higher nitrogen concentration, which maximized optimization of the NV^-/NV⁰ ratio in the diamond structure. This study has provided a new way to prepare diamond containing only NV^- optical color centers.     

计及声子辅助跃迁的单量子点中的非线性法拉第偏转

利用一束弱线性π偏振探测光在与其平行的磁场作用下所形成的两偏振分量,在半导体单量子点中考虑声子辅助跃迁去构建环形四能级电磁感应透明介质模型.利用多重尺度法,解析研究发现:仅考虑系统的线性效应,随着耦合光强度的增加,介质对探测光的吸收迅速减少,形成透明窗口,并且透明窗口的宽度随之增大;进一步地,在相同的外加磁场下探测光的非线性法拉第偏转方向与线性法拉第偏转相反,且偏转角更大.随着声子辅助跃迁强度的增加,线性和非线性法拉第偏转角都会逐渐变小,并且非线性法拉第偏转角减小的更多.这说明系统中的声子辅助跃迁能有效地调制探测光的法拉第偏转.我们的研究可能对于弱光条件下的光信息处理和传输具有潜在的应用价值.
