An optical study of the D-D neutron irradiation-induced defects in Co-and Cu-doped ZnO wafers

Room-temperature photoluminescence and optical transmittance spectroscopy of Co-doped(1×1014,5×1016,and 1×1017cm-2) and Cu-doped(5×1016cm-2) ZnO wafers irradiated by D-D neutrons(fluence of 2.9×1010 cm-2) have been investigated.After irradiation,the Co or Cu metal and oxide clusters in doped ZnO wafers are dissolved,and the wu¨rtzite structure of ZnO substrate for each sample remains unchanged and keeps in high c-axis preferential orientation.The degree of irradiation-induced crystal disorder reflected from the absorption band tail parameter(E0) is far greater for doped ZnO than the undoped one.Under the same doping concentration,the Cu-doped ZnO wafer has much higher irradiation-induced disorder than the Co-doped one.Photoluminescence measurements indicate that the introduction rate of both the zinc vacancy and the zinc interstitial is much higher for the doped ZnO wafer with a high doping level than the undoped one.In addition,both crystal lattice distortion and defect complexes are suggested to be formed in doped ZnO wafers.Consequently,the Co-or Cu-doped ZnO wafer(especially with a high doping level) exhibits very low radiation hardness compared with the undoped one,and the Cu-doped ZnO wafer is much less radiation-hard than the Co-doped one.     

Oxygen vacancy-induced room-temperature ferromagnetism in D-D neutron irradiated single-crystal TiO2 （001） rutile

Remarkable room temperature ferromagnetism in pure single-crystal rutile TiO2 （001） samples irradiated by D-D neutron has been investigated. By combining X-ray diffraction and positron annihilation lifetime, the contracted lattice has been clearly identified in irradiated TiO2, where Ti4＋ ions can be easily reduced to the state of Ti3＋. As there were no magnetic impurities that could contaminate the samples during the whole procedure, some Ti3＋ ions reside on interstitial or substituted sites accompanied by oxygen vacancies should be responsible for the ferromagnetism.     

Co+离子注入单晶TiO2铁磁性来源与微结构研究

在室温下,将能量为80 keV, 注量分别为1×1016和1×1017ions/cm2的Co+离子注入到10 mm×10 mm×0.5 mm的单晶TiO₂样品。在氮气保护下, Co+离子注量为1×1017 ions/cm2时样品在温度为900 ℃的条件下退火30 min。 利用超导量子干涉仪 （SQUID）测量样品磁性, 并应用X射线衍射（XRD）和扩展边X射线吸收精细结构谱（EXAFS）研究Co+离子注入后样品的微观结构。 样品磁性测量结果表明:Co+离子注入后的样品具有室温铁磁性, 并且其饱和磁化强度的大小与Co+离子注量及样品是否经退火处理有关。 EXAFS研究表明: Co元素在Co+离子注量为1×1017ions/cm2的样品中主要以团簇形式存在;样品经退火处理后, Co团簇消失, 并发现Co部分替代TiO₂单晶中的Ti。Co+离子注入后, 在样品中形成Co团簇与否受离子注量的影响。 阐述了样品微观结构与铁磁性来源之间的关系。 At room temperature, monocrystalline plates of rutile (TiO₂) were implanted with cobalt ions of an energy of 80 keV to fluences of 1×1016 and 1×1017 ions/cm2 respectively . The 1×1017 ions/cm2 Co implanted samples were annealed in nitrogen at 900 ℃ for 30 min. The magnetic properties of Co implanted samples were measured with a superconducting quantum interference device magnetometer (SQUID) at room temperature. Furthermore, the X ray diffraction (XRD) and Extended X ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) were applied to investigate the structural and compositional properties of Co implanted samples. The magnetic measurements of samples showed that the size of the saturation magnetization of the Co implanted samples were related to the fluence of ions, and the saturation magnetization of the sample after annealed decreased significantly. The EXAFS measurements showed the presence of cobalt metallic clusters in the sample implanted to ion fluence of 1×1017 ions/cm2. The Co metallic clusters disappeared in the sample after annealed, and resulted in the oxidized Co, which is presumed to substitute into the Ti site. The formation of Co clusters or not was determined by the ion fluence. The relation between ferromagnetic behavior and microscopic structure of the Co implanted samples is discussed.     

多种图像采集策略下X射线折射信息的提取研究

不同的图像采集策略下,基于分析晶体相衬成像技术的折射信息提取方法(衍射增强成像法、广义衍射增强成像法、多图成像法)的折射角提取结果有明显的差异.与摇摆曲线腰位作为图像采集位置的传统策略相比,采集位置靠近摇摆曲线中轴时,衍射增强成像法能够提取得到更好的折射角结果.广义衍射增强成像法的三个图像采集位置相对摇摆曲线中轴对称时,折射角的提取结果好于采集位置非对称的结果,并且采集位置靠近摇摆曲线中轴时,折射角的提取结果好于摇摆曲线腰位或趾位的结果.对于多图成像法,相邻图像采集位置的角度间隔大于摇摆曲线半高全宽时,折射角提取结果非常差;而当角度间隔小于半高全宽并且图像采集位置对应的角度范围接近样品的最大折射角理论值时,能够获得很好的折射角提取结果.此研究有助于实验上对图像采集策略的合理选择以及对折射信息提取方法的更深理解.
