飞秒激光-金属薄膜靶相互作用中靶前后超热电子能谱的比较

采用电子谱仪测量了飞秒激光-金属薄膜靶相互作用中靶前和靶后产生的超热电子能谱.结果显示：靶前超热电子能谱的峰出现在约430 keV处，靶后超热电子能谱的峰出现在约175 keV处；靶前超热电子的有效温度分别为218 keV和425 keV，靶后超热电子能谱出现“软化”现象，其有效温度分别为96 keV和347 keV.靶前和靶后超热电子能谱明显不同是由于超热电子输运穿越过密等离子体和冷材料的靶，并在靶后建立Debye鞘，鞘电场使靶后超热电子能谱峰向低能端移动，鞘电场和自生磁场导致靶后超热电子能谱产生“软化”，估算出的鞘电场小于激光电场.

The effect of multiple electron-electron scattering on the energy distribution of electrons in a correlated pair

A unit event of electron-electron scattering in LiF layers is studied by correlation spectroscopy of scattered electrons. The energy distribution of electrons in a correlated pair when a 15-to 55-eV free electron is scattered by a valence electron of LiF is studied. It is shown that single electron-electron scattering prevails and the distribution is uniform when the energy of the primary electron is below 25 eV. As the energy of the primary electron increases, the formation of correlated pairs of electrons with equal energies becomes the most probable. With the energy of the primary electron above 40 eV, the pairs with substantially different electron energies dominate. Such evolution of the energy distribution of the electrons in the pair stems from the fact that first one and then the other electron of the pair successively takes part in electron-electron scattering. A phenomenological model for the single scattering and double scattering of primary electrons in LiF films is considered. Results obtained indicate that the strengths of single scattering and double scattering channels become comparable at electron energies above 25 eV.

Influence of cosmic radiation spectrum and its variation on the relative efficiency of LiF thermoluminescent detectors – Calculations and measurements

Lithium fluoride thermoluminescent detectors (TLD) were used for cosmic radiation dosimetry already in early 1960s. Since that time they have been constantly applied in numerous space missions for personal dosimetry, area monitoring, phantom measurements and dosimetry for biological experiments. The relative efficiency of TLDs, defined as the ratio of their response to a given radiation and to a reference radiation, is not constant, but depends on ionization density. This raises a question about the relative efficiency of TLDs exposed to the complex cosmic radiation spectrum encountered in Earth's orbit, which consists of a variety of particles, including heavy ions, the spectrum of which covers an extremely broad energy range. The present work is an attempt to find an answer to this question.The particle energy spectra were calculated for realistic flight conditions of the International Space Station (ISS). The calculation of the Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) component was based on the input spectra generated with the DLR model for solar minimum (2009) and solar maximum (2000) conditions. Contributions of trapped protons were estimated based on the AP8 model for solar minimum and maximum taking into account the altitude variations of the ISS. The interactions of the primary particles with the ISS were simulated with GEANT4 using a shielding geometry derived from the mass distribution of the Columbus Laboratory of the ISS and several constant aluminum shieldings. The calculated spectra were convoluted with the experimental data on the relative TL efficiency measured for ions ranging from H to Xe at various particle accelerators for two commonly applied TL-materials, namely LiF:Mg,Ti and LiF:Mg,Cu,P.The results showed the differences in the average TL-efficiency for these two TL-materials. For LiF:Mg,Ti the relative efficiency is within a few percent from unity for any of the analyzed values of shielding, altitude and solar cycle conditions. This means that one can assume cosmic radiation doses measured in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) with LiF:Mg,Ti detectors to be correct within such uncertainty. LiF:Mg,Cu,P underestimates the cosmic radiation doses by more than 15% in all cases. Altitude and solar cycle were found to have a very weak influence on the TL efficiency. In contrast, the influence of shielding thickness is quite significant. The reason for this is a change of contributions of radiation field components: trapped protons dominate at low shielding (97% of dose at 1 g/cm²), but are negligible above 60 g/cm², as well as changes within GCR spectrum (increase of dose due to lower LET secondaries for higher shielding). Shielding thickness affects both TLD types in different ways: the efficiency of LiF:Mg,Cu,P increases with increasing shielding thickness, while the efficiency of LiF:Mg,Ti shows some fluctuations, with a weak minimum for 60 g/cm². The response ratio of these TLDs decreases monotonically with the shielding thickness and could be used as an indicator for the average shielding conditions in which the TLDs were exposed.     

Anregung von Kristallgitterschwingungen durch Elektronenstrahlen

The interaction of electrons with lattice vibrations in thin films of LiF, NaF, MgO, and Al₂O₃ has been studied by means of high resolution electron energy spectroscopy. Just above the excitation energy of the transversal optical modes small bands in the energy loss spectrum are observed. According to the dielectric theory of an unbounded medium only longitudinal optical modes should be excited. The observed energy loss spectrum may be explained by the excitation of surface lattice vibrations. A theoretical energy loss spectrum of LiF has been computed taking into account the surface effects. It is in excellent agreement with the experimental spectrum. Apart from electrons with energy loss also electrons with energy gain were observed. The intensity distribution of the energy gain spectrum is equivalent to the energy loss spectrum. Energy loss and gain spectra of fast electrons by excitation of lattice vibration are corresponding to the Stokes- and Antistokes lines of spectroscopy of light optics.     

Environmental gamma-ray dose rate measurement by using ultra-high sensitive LiF:Mg,Cu,Si TLD

Environmental gamma-ray dose rates were measured by using ultra-high sensitive LiF:Mg,Cu,Si thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLDs) during short-term burial. The resultant gamma-ray dose rates were compared with those measured by using optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) of Al₂O₃:C and assessed by using HPGe spectrometer. Regardless of the short-term burial and the change of environmental conditions as well as the mismatch of the effective atomic number (Z_eff) with the soil (mainly SiO₂), good agreement was observed between the doses measured by TLDs and OSL dosimeters or the assessed doses. LiF:Mg,Cu,Si TLD has been found to be an effective alternative for the measurement of environmental gamma-ray annual dose rates for use in optical dating.     

High-dose characterization of different LiF phosphors

The dose response of three LiF TLDs: standard LiF:Mg,Ti (denoted MTS), high-sensitive LiF:Mg,Cu,P (MCP) and a recently developed in Kraków version of LiF:Mg,Ti with modified activator composition (MTT) and increased high-LET response was measured. The TLDs have been exposed to ⁶⁰Co gamma-rays, up to dose of 10 000 Gy, i.e. beyond saturation dose of the main dosimetric peaks, which corresponds to ca. 1000 Gy. The measured glow-curves were deconvolved into separate peaks with first order kinetic function (using self-developed GlowFit software). The dose response of the main peaks was found to be supralinear for MTS and sublinear for MCP detectors, as expected. The dose response of MTT was found to be even more supralinear than that of MTS. An interesting effect has been observed with regard to glow-curve shape of MCP detectors. Up to a dose of 1 kGy it remains practically unchanged, while for higher doses a strong growth of high-temperature peaks is observed. In the same dose region a decrease of the main peak of MCP with increasing dose is observed, unlike LiF:Mg,Ti detectors.

Ion-induced kinetic electron emission from 6LiF,7LiF and MgF2 thin films

<正>Secondary electron yields for Ar~+ impact on ~6LiF,~7LiF and MgF_2 thin films grown on aluminum substrates are measured each as a function of target temperature and projectile energy.Remarkably different behaviours of the electron yields for LiF and MgF_2 films are observed in a temperature range from 25℃to 300℃.The electron yield of LiF is found to sharply increase with target temperature and to be saturated at about 175℃.But the target temperature has no effect on the electron yield of MgF_2.It is also found that for the ion energies greater than 4 keV,the electron yield of ~6LiF is consistently high as compared with that of ~7LiF that may be due to the enhanced contribution of recoiling ~6Li atoms to the secondary electron generation.A comparison between the electron yields of MgF_2 and LiF reveales that above a certain ion energy the electron yield of MgF_2 is considerably low as compared with that of LiF.We suggest that the short inelastic mean free path of electrons in MgF_2 can be one of the reasons for its low electron yield.
