Periodic arrays of submicron Si and Ni dots on SiO2 fabricated using linearly polarized Nd:YAG pulsed laser

Periodic arrays of submicron Si and Ni dots were fabricated by only irradiating a linearly polarized Nd:YAG pulsed laser beam to Si and Ni thin films deposited on silicon dioxide (SiO₂) film. The interference between an incident beam and a scattered surface wave leads to the spatial periodicity of beam energy density distribution on the surface of the irradiated samples. A thin film was melted using a laser beam, and the molten film was split and condensed owing to its surface tensile according to the periodic energy density distribution. Then, the fine lines (line and space structure) were formed periodically. After the formation of fine lines, the sample was rotated by 90°, and the laser beam was irradiated. The periodic energy density distribution was generated on the fine lines, and the lines were split and condensed. Eventually, the periodically aligned submicron dots were fabricated on the SiO₂ film.

Calculation of ion transport beam lines with stepwise change in beam parameters

Diaphragms or slits (to limit the size of the ion beam) and degraders (to reduce the kinetic energy of ions) are often used in beam lines for ion transport. When an ion beam travels through these elements, parameters such as rms sizes, angle, and momentum spread change abruptly. This fact should be taken into account in calculating the subsequent sections of the beam line. Formulas are derived for determining new parameters of the ion beam immediately after its passage through those elements. The results of calculations are given regarding the transport of different kinds of heavy ions in the beam lines of the U400M cyclotron of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions intended for testing electronic microchips.

The software is capable of calculating the orbit-correction quality distributions and reconstructing the transport matrix parameters from the response matrices.

Variations in bonding of iron in porous ferrisilicates

The ISAC post accelerator comprises an RFQ, DTL and SC-linac. The high energy beam lines connect the linear accelerators as well as deliver the accelerated beams to two different experimental areas. The medium energy beam transport (MEBT) line connects the RFQ to the DTL. The high energy beam transport (HEBT) line connects the DTL to the ISAC-I experimental stations (DRAGON, TUDA-I, GPS). The DTL to superconducting beam (DSB) transport line connects the ISAC-I and ISAC-II linacs. The superconducting energy beam transport (SEBT) line connects the SC linac to the ISAC-II experimental station (TUDA-II, HERACLES, TIGRESS, EMMA and GPS). All these lines have the function of transporting and matching the beams to the downstream sections by manipulating the transverse and longitudinal phase space. They also contain diagnostic devices to measure the beam properties.

Fabrication of high-frequency electron beam moiré grating using multi-deposited layer techniques

This paper proposed new ways for producing multi-layer model grids for electron beam moiré method. An electron beam lithography system was set up under scanning electron microscope which was equipped with a beam blanking device and a pattern generator. The two-deposited-metal layers method was used to manufacture electron beam grating for high-temperature use. The results verify that the Zr–Pt-type grating possesses heat resistance up to 1100°C in vacuum. A new type of composite grating with frequencies 100 lines/mm and 1000 lines/mm using three deposited layers was produced. A 10 000 lines/mm two-deposited-metal layers grating was successfully fabricated using electron beam lithography.     

Beam transportation lines for the NICA project

A heavy-ion collider, i.e., the Nuclotron-based Ion Collider Facility (NICA), is being developed at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna, Russia. The aim of this project is to construct a new accelerator complex for conducting experiments with colliding ion beam (at the first stage of the project) and with polarized proton and deuteron beams (at the second stage). The NICA accelerator complex will consist of two linear accelerators, two synchrotrons, two collider rings, and beam transportation lines. The magnetic lattice and diagnostic and correction systems for the NICA beam transportation lines are described in this report.     

Multiplication of spectral lines generated by two-color stimulated raman effect

A dye laser emitting at four different frequencies separated by 293.5 (=587/2) cm^-1 is made by inserting an etalon in the resonator cavity of the laser. This laser beam is focused into molecular hydrogen (rotational Raman shift frequency, 587 cm^-1) to generate a multicolor laser beam consisting of more than 10 rotational lines in the vicinity of the fundamental lines by four-wave Raman mixing. Such rotational lines also occur in the vicinity of the vibrational Raman lines. Thus more than 25 emission lines appear simultaneously. This approach is useful to multiply the line density, i.e., the emission lines within a specified wavelength region.

The China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is the first accelerator-based pulsed neutron source in China. Its accelerators are made up of an 80 MeV H⁻ linac, a Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) and two beam transport lines. RCS accumulates and accelerates protons to the design energy of 1.6 GeV, and extracts high energy beam to strike the target. The overview of RCS is presented, and the key problems of the physics design are discussed. The two beam transport lines, from linac to RCS and from RCS to the target, are also introduced.

Stimulated Raman scattering and four-wave Raman mixing seeded by a supercontinuum generated in dibromomethane using picosecond and femtosecond laser sources

Stimulated Raman emission from liquid dibromomethane (vibrational Raman shift frequency, 588 cm⁻¹) is introduced into hydrogen gas (rotational Raman shift frequency, 587 cm⁻¹) as a seed beam, in order to generate numerous rotational lines by four-wave Raman mixing. Unexpectedly, a supercontinuum, which is generated by self-phase modulation in dibromomethane, acted as a seed beam to exclusively generate vibrational lines; the rotational lines are generated only when the supercontinuum is minimal. The former is explained by a competition between the high-gain vibrational and low-gain rotational Raman effects when strongly seeded by a supercontinuum. The latter is explained by stimulated Raman gain under the seed effect exclusively to the first-Stokes rotational line.     

Effects of downstream magnetic field collimation on ion behavior inelectron cyclotron resonance microwave plasma

Effects of a magnetic held collimation on ion behavior in the downstream region of an electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma device are clarified experimentally using a directional ion energy analyzer. The drift energy and its spread of the ion beam observed in the downstream region decrease and the beam temperature increases with the collimating magnetic flux density. Then, the ion temperature measured perpendicular to the axis of the plasma stream slightly decreases. The ion beam is found to be almost parallel to the magnetic field lines, that is, the beam tends to be collimated

Long pulse laser action has been achieved at 3378.28 and 3481.96 Å in an electron beam excited supersonic flow.

Quasioptical Transmission Lines for ECRH at TJ-II Stellarator

Two mirror lines have been used to transmit the microwave power from the powerful microwave generators to the TJ-II plasmas. Both lines have been tested at nominal power level and they are in operation now. This paper deals with the final design of the transmission lines and their testing. Before starting operation at high power level, measurements of the wave beam parameters at low power level were performed. Two horn antennas were designed to simulate the gyrotron output. The results are presented in this paper. A computer code based on Huygens diffraction theory was developed to simulate the propagation of the beam along the mirror lines. A comparison of the theoretical and the experimental results is also shown here.
