Comparative Studies on Structure and Electronic Properties Between Thermal Lithiated Li_(0.5)MnO_2 and LiMn_2O_4

Monoclinic Li0.5MnO2 was synthesized by solid state reaction and the spectral and magnetic properties were studied in comparison with those of spinel LiMn2O4.The XRD pattern and Raman spectrum of Li0.5MnO2 are different from those of LiMn2O4,which indicate the different long-range and short-range crystal structure.XPS result shows the binding energies of 2p3/2 and 2p1/2 in Li0.5MnO2 are located at 642.3 and 653.6 eV,respectively.Through fitting the XPS spectra,the valence state of Mn ion in Li0.5MnO2 coincides with that in LiMn2O4.The high-temperature susceptibility of Li0.5MnO2 can be fitted by Curie-Weiss law whose Curie and Weiss constants are 33 A·m2·K/(mol·T) and-277(6) K,respectively.Although Li0.5MnO2 shows spin glass ground state,the transition temperature of Li0.5MnO2 is about 9 K lower than that of LiMn2O4.

Diagnostic study of laser ablated YBa2Cu3Oy plumes

Post-ablation ionisation in conjunction with a reflectron time-of-flight mass spectrometer has been used to investigate a number of species in the ablation plume from a YBa₂Cu₃O_y target. The experiments were carried out using a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser with typical intensities of ≈ 10⁸ W cm⁻² characteristic of the fluences (1 J cm⁻²) required for the pulsed laser deposition of thin superconducting films. By varying the delay between the ablation and the ionisation laser, the velocity distributions of several of the species from the target have been measured simultaneously. It has been observed that, although some of the atoms and molecules (i.e. Cu, Ba and BaO) have similar velocities, the atoms and oxides of Y (Y and YO) have very different velocities. The yttrium atoms and oxides were observed to be slower than the barium atoms and oxides at both ablation wavelengths examined (355 and 532 nm) and at two different distances from the target surface (2 and 3 mm). It is suggested that Ba, Cu and their oxides are ablated directly from the surface as neutrals, whereas Y and YO form clusters in the ablation plume. These clusters are then fragmented by the post-ionisation laser to produce Y and YO ions.

UV-laser ablation of ionic liquid matrices

Ionic liquid matrices are a new class of matrices used in MALDI mass spectrometry. The ablation process of several ionic liquid matrices was studied by determining the velocity distribution of ablated neutral matrix molecules. This was done by a postionization approach, where the neutrals were ionized in the ablation plume by a second laser pulse. It was found that a second, time-delayed ablation event occurs consisting completely of neutral molecules. To explain this, the reflected-shockwave model is used, which assumes that the shockwave emerging from the laser ablation is reflected at the sample holder surface. When the shockwave arrives at the sample surface it causes a second ablation.     

Analysis of glass by UV laser ablation inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. Part 1. Effects of the laser parameters on the amount of ablated material and the temporal behaviour of the signal for different types of laser

Two lasers working in the UV part of the spectrum have been used for the analysis of glass samples. An XeCl excimer laser (308 nm) and a Nd:YAG laser operating at the third harmonic (355 nm) and the fourth harmonic (266 nm) have been selected. The energy was 100 mJ and 5 mJ for the excimer laser and the Nd:YAG laser, respectively. Because of different spot sizes, the fluence was of the same magnitude for both lasers. Crater characterization indicated that the laser ablation efficiency was similar for the two lasers when normalized to the same energy. However, the XeCl was found to be more efficient when the results were normalized to irradiance unit. The amount of probed material and ablated material was measured, leading to an efficiency higher than 80%. The influence of the glass colour and the laser wavelength was evaluated. The XeCl laser provided the largest amount of material but was sensitive to the glass colour. This laser was mainly suitable for bulk analysis. In contrast, the Nd:YAG, particularly at 266 nm, was insensitive to the glass colour and was appropriate for localized analysis. Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry was used for atomization and excitation of the ablated material. A good agreement was found between the temporal behaviour of the amount of ablated material and the analyte signal.     

On the iron oxide neutral cluster distribution in the gas phase. I. Detection through 193 nm multiphoton ionization

Iron oxide (FemOn) neutral clusters are generated in the gas phase through laser ablation of the metal and reaction with various concentrations of O2 in He. The mixture of expansion gas and neutral FemOn cluster species is expanded through a supersonic nozzle into a vacuum system, in which the clusters are ionized by an ArF excimer laser at 193 nm, and the ions are detected and identified in a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. In this report, the experimental parameters that influence the observed cluster distributions, such as ablation laser power, expansion pressure, vacuum system pressure, and 193 nm ArF ionization laser power, are explored. In the second paper in this series, the effect of the ionization laser wavelength (355 nm, 193 nm, 118 nm) on the observed cluster ion distribution is explored. The cluster ion distribution observed employing 193 nm laser ionization, is sensitive to the neutral cluster distribution as evidenced by the change in the observed time-of-flight mass spectra with changes in laser power, growth conditions, and expansion conditions. The thermodynamically stable neutral clusters for saturated O2 growth conditions are suggested to be of the forms FemOm, FemO(m+1), and FemO(m+2); which one of these series of neutral clusters is most stable depends on the size of the cluster. For m < 10, FemOm is the most stable neutral cluster series, for 10 < or = m < or = 20, FemO(m+1) is the most stable neutral cluster series, and for 21 < or = m < = 30, FemO(m+2) is the most stable neutral cluster series. Some neutral cluster fragmentation is clearly present for 193 nm ionization due to multiphoton absorption in both the neutral and ionic cluster species.

Approaching non-destructive surface chemical analysis of CMSX-4 superalloy with double-pulsed laser induced breakdown spectroscopy

Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was performed on the CMSX-4 Ni-based superalloy using a femtosecond pulsed laser. An orthogonal double-pulse technique was used to minimize surface damage associated with LIBS. With this technique, the depth of ablation craters was reduced from 200 nm for single-pulse LIBS down to less than 60 nm using orthogonal double-pulse LIBS. The technique also allowed the average velocity of the ablated material to be determined, which ranged from 4720 ± 560 m/s at a pump laser fluence of 3.1 J/cm² to 8150 ±1800 m/s at 10.1 J/cm².     

Laser ablation of imidazolium based ionic liquids

Time-of-flight mass spectrometry has been used to investigate the IR ablation of several ionic liquid imidazolium salts of the form R(1)R(2)Iium X (R(1) = methyl; R(2) = methyl, ethyl, butyl, and hexyl; X = Cl(-), NO(3)(-), and CH(3)SO(4)(-)). The ablated ionic species were analyzed by time-of-flight mass spectrometry using pulsed extraction, and neutral species were detected using vacuum UV photoionization at 10.5 eV. The results demonstrate that at least 99% of the ablated material is removed in the form of nano- or microdroplets consisting of intact ionic liquid. Approximately 1% is ejected as imidazole molecules (R(1)R(2)Im) produced through the elimination of HCl, and about 0.1% of the material is ejected in the form of single salt molecules of R(1)R(2)Iium X. A chemical thermometer was used to measure the internal temperature (475 +/- 25 K) of the ablated vapor plume.

Laser ablation doping of poly crystalline tin dioxide films with palladium

Laser ablation of palladium was studied and velocity (energy) distributions of palladium ions evaporated by an Kr-F laser in a vacuum were obtained. The optimum values of energy fluence (fluence rate) of laser radiation for doping tin dioxide films, at which neither multiply charged Pd^N+ ions nor ionized clusters Pd _N ⁺ , occur in a plasma, were determined. From time-of-flight probe measurement data, Pd⁺ implantation depths in SnO₂ films were calculated, which qualitatively agree with the results obtained by secondary neutral mass spectrometry. Electric conductivity measurements on the obtained films in a gas phase showed that introduction of palladium into polycrystalline SnO₂ films by laser ablation significantly enhanced their gas sensitivity to hydrogen.     

On the copper oxide neutral cluster distribution in the gas phase: detection through 355 nm and 193 nm multiphoton and 118 nm single photon ionization

The distribution of neutral copper oxide clusters in the gas phase created by laser ablation is detected and characterized through time-of-flight mass spectroscopy (TOFMS). The neutral copper oxide clusters are ionized by two different approaches: Multiphoton absorption of 355 and 193 nm radiation; and single photon absorption of 118 nm radiation. Based on the observed cluster patterns as a function of experimental conditions (e.g., copper oxide or metal sample, ablation laser power, expansion gas, etc.) and on the width of the TOFMS features, one can uncover the true neutral cluster distribution of CumOn species following laser ablation of the sample. Ablation of a metal sample generates only small neutral CumOn clusters for m less, similar 4 and n approximately 1, 2. Ablation of copper oxide samples generates neutral clusters of the form CumOm (m < or = 4) and CumO(m-1) (m > 4). These clusters are directly detected without fragmentation using single photon, photoionization with 118 nm laser radiation. Using 355 and 193 nm multiphoton ionization, the observed cluster ions are mostly of the form Cu2mOm+ for 4 < or = m < or = 10 (193 nm ionization) and CumO1,2 (355 nm ionization) for copper oxide samples. Neutral cluster fragmentation due to multiphoton processes seems mainly to be of the form CumO(m,m-1) --> CumO(m/2,m/2+1). Neutral cluster growth mechanisms are discussed based on the cluster yield from different samples (e.g., Cu metal, CuO powder, and Cu2O powder).     

Diagnostic and analytical study of post ablation ionization of neutral atoms of major and minor constituents from a low alloy steel

Post ablation ionization (PAI) of neutral atoms from a low alloy steel has been investigated using non-resonant laser ionization in a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. By varying the delay between the ablation and ionization lasers, the velocity distributions of the Ti, V, Cr, Mn and Fe atoms have been determined simultaneously. These distributions have been recorded as a function of ablation laser fluence. The half-range Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution has been used to fit the data and different characteristic temperatures have been determined for the various elements in the sample. The quantitative capability of this method for bulk and surface analysis has been evaluated by calculating the relative sensitivity factors (RSFs) for the various constituent elements. The RSFs for all of the elements are seen to be highly dependent on the delay between the ablating and ionizing lasers. This dependence was reduced by integrating the temporal dependent ion yield, leading to a significant improvement in the calculated RSF values. It was also found that the RSFs were not highly dependent on the power density of the ablation laser beam.
