Observation of Nano-Dots on HOPG Surface Induced by Highly Charged Arq+ Impact

Highly charged ions （HCIs） have huge potential energy due to their high charge state. When a HCI reaches a solid surface, its potential energy is released immediately on the surface to cause a nano-scale defect. Thus, HCIs are expected to be useful for solid-surface modifications on the nano-scale. We investigate the defects on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite （HOPG） surface induced by slow highly charged Ar^q＋ ions with impact energy of 20-2000qeV with scanning probe microscopy （SPM）. In order to clarify the role of kinetic and potential energies in surface modification, the nano-defects are characterized in lateral size and height corresponding to the kinetic energy and charge state of the HCIs. Both the potential energy and kinetic energy of the ions may influence the size of nano-defect. Since potential energy increases dramatically with increasing charge state, the potential energy effect is expected to be much larger than the kinetic energy effect in the case of extremely high charge states. This implies that pure surface modification on the nano-scale could be carried out by slow highly charged ions. The mean size of nano-defect region could also be controlled by selecting the charge state and kinetic energy of HCI.

Controlled Evolution of Silicon Nanocone Arrays Induced by Ar+ Sputtering at Room Temperature

Controlled evolution of silicon nanocone arrays induced by Ar^＋ sputtering at room temperature, using the coating carbon as a mask, is demonstrated. The investigation of scanning electron microscopy indicates that the morphology of silicon nanostructures can be controlled by adjusting the thickness of the coating carbon film. Increasing the thickness of the coating carbon film from 50-60 nm, 250-300 nm and 750-800 nm to 1500 nm, the morphologies of silicon nanostructures are transformed from smooth surface ripple, coarse surface ripple and surface ripple with densely distributed nanocones to nanocone arrays with a high density of about 1 × 10^9- 2 × 10^9 cm^-2.     

平行玻璃板对105 keV Ar7+离子的导向效应

研究了平行玻璃板对高流强（约80 nA）105 keV Ar7+离子的导向效应, 利用一维位置灵敏探测器测量了不同倾斜角下出射离子的强度及角分布。 实验结果表明, 平行玻璃板对Ar7+离子有导向作用。 与离子在微孔膜中的导向效应不同, 从平行玻璃板出射的Ar离子角分布的FWHM随着倾斜角的改变而改变, 并且出射离子角分布最大值处对应的观察角不等于倾斜角。 The transmission of 105 keV Ar7+ ions with high incident current (about 80 nA) through the gap formed by a paired parallel glass plates was investigated. The intensity and angular distribution of the transmitted ions for various tilt angles were measured using a one dimensional position sensitive detector. The results indicate the existence of a guiding effect when Ar7+ ions pass through the gap, but it is different from that for ions passing through nonacapillaries. We found a measurable dependence of the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the transmitted ions as a function of the tilt angle. In addition, when the gap was tilted with respect to the direction of the incident beam, the observation angle related to the center of the transmitted ions profile was not equal to the tilt angle.     

L-Shell X-Ray Yields and Production Cross Sections of Zr and Mo Bombarded by Slow Highly Charged Ar16+ Ions

The L-shell x-ray yields of Zr and Mo bombarded by slow Ar16＋ ions are measured. The energy of the Ar^16＋ ions ranges from about 150 keV to 350 keV. The L-shell x-ray production cross sections of Zr and Mo are extracted from these yields data. The explanation of these experimental results is in the framework of the adiabatic direct- ionization and the binding energy modified BEA approximation. We consider, in the slow asymmetric collisions such as Ar and Mo/Zr, the transient united atoms （UA） are formed during the ion-surface interaction and the direct-ionization is the main mechanism for the inner-shell vacancy production. Generally, the theoretical results are in good agreement with the experimental data.

The X-ray emission from the highly charged Ar¹⁷⁺ ion interacting with Mo surface are measured on the 14.5GHz Electron Cyclotron Resonance ion source facility at Institute of Modern, the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Lanzhou. Ar¹⁷⁺ ions came from Electron Cyclotron Resonance ion source and impacted on Mo surface.The incident ion with vacancy of inner shell captures electrons emitted from surface into highly excited Rydberg states, outer shell electron cascades into K vacancy giving rise to Kα X-ray emission of the incidentionsions.

Interaction of O3+ Ions with Al2O3 Nanocapillaries

We investigate angular distributions of the transmitted 60 keV and 120 keV O^3＋ ions through nanocapillaries with 50hm diameter and 10μm length. The experimental results are in agreement with the ＇guiding effect＇ found by Stolterfoht et al. For different tilted angles of the nanocapillary membrane with respect to the beam, the angular distributions of the transmitted ions are measured by a one-dimensional micro-channel plate （MCP） detector. Moreover, the dependence of this guiding effect on the projectile energy is studied.

The saddle-point variational method and restricted variational method are used to calculate energies of doublyexcited singlet states 1s^23lnl′ （n =3-.） ^1 De in Be-like O^4＋ ions, including the mass polarization and relativistic corrections. The saddle-point complex-rotation method is used to compute the Auger widths and Auger transition rates. These results are compared with other theoretical and experimental data in the literature.     

Dielectronic Recombination of Sn^10＋ Ions and Related Satellite Spectra

Based on the multi-configuration Dirac-Fock method, theoretical calculations are carried out for the dielectronic recombination （DR） rate coefficients and the collision excitation rate coefficients of Sn^10＋ ions. It is found that the total DR rate coefficient has its maximum value between 10eV and 100eV and is greater than either the radiative recombination or three-body recombination rate coefficients （the number of free electrons per unit is 10^21 cm^3） for the ease of Te 〉 1 eV. Therefore, DR can strongly influence the ionization balance of laser produced multi-charged tin ions. The related dieleetronie satellite cannot be ignored at low temperature Te 〈 5 eV.     

Ionizing Dose Effect of Thermal Oxides Implanted with Si^＋ Ions

Total ionizing dose effects of Si^＋ ion implanted thermal oxides are studied by 10keV x-ray irradiation. Photoluminescence （PL） method is engaged to investigate nanostructures of samples. Ar^＋ implanted samples are also studied by the same way to provide a comparison. The results show that Si^＋ implantation following with high temperature annealing can significantly reduce the radiation induced flatband shift, which is caused by net posi- tive charge accumulation in oxides. This reduction is attributed to the formation of Si nanoscale structures. Ar^＋ implantation is also found to reduce the radiation induced flatband shift, while it is different that the reduction with Si^＋ implantation shows little dependence on implant dose of Ar^＋ ions. This is explained by possible increase of recombination centres.     

12C6+离子束辐照菘蓝干种子当代效应

利用兰州重离子研究装置(HIRFL) 提供的12C6+ 离子束辐照菘蓝干种子(辐照剂量为10,35,60,90 和140 Gy,剂量率20 Gy/min),探讨了重离子束辐照对菘蓝M1代的生物学效应。研究发现,不同剂量的12C6+ 离子束辐照后,菘蓝种子的发芽率、成苗率、株高、根长和根冠比等生物学性状以及对菘蓝中靛玉红和4(3H) 喹唑酮含量均发生了变化,其中株高和根长随辐照剂量的增加而降低;菘蓝叶和根中的4(3H) 喹唑酮和靛玉红的含量随辐照剂量增加呈马鞍形增加关系。这表明:12C6+ 重离子束辐照菘蓝种子具有明显的当代损伤效应, 并可显著提高菘蓝中靛玉红和4(3H) 喹唑酮的含量,其辐照适宜诱变剂量为35 Gy。To investigate the M1 biological effects of heavy ions on Isatis indigotica Fort, its dry seeds were irradiated by 12C6+ beam with the dose of 0, 10, 35, 60, 90 and 140 Gy respectively,at the rate of 20 Gy/min delivered by the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL). The results showed that biological characters such as germinating rate, germinating potential, survival rate, plant height, root height and root-shoot ratio were changed after irradiation. Moreover, the plant height and root height decreased in a dos dependent manner. The indirubin and 4(3H) quinazolinone content of Isatis indigotica Fort was improved and exhibited obviously “saddle” trends with irradiation dose increasing.Data suggest that exposure with low-dose 12C6+ to seeds of Isatis indigotica Fort has obvious injury effects at the first generation, and the active ingredient content of Isatis indigotica Fort may be improved by carbon ion beamirradiation. It is concluded that the suitable irradiation dose of mutation breeding is 35 Gy for the seeds of Isatis indigotica Fort.     

螺吡喃光响应的汞、铬、银离子探针及相互作用光谱

合成并表征了1-羟乙基-3,3-二甲基-6′,8′-二叔丁基吲哚啉苯并螺吡喃配体1及其衍生物配体2。由于苯并螺吡喃6′,8′-二叔丁基斥电子基团的电子效应,开环体部花菁酚氧负离子上的负电荷难以分散,使其结构不稳定,配体1在紫外光照射下不直接开环,只有在极性较强的甲醇溶剂中受适当金属离子诱导才能形成有色开环体部花菁结构形式。配体1能较好地选择识别Hg2+,Cr3+和Ag+。当其相互作用时,不但紫外可见光谱及荧光光谱有明显“turn-on”变化,而且体系颜色明显地由无色变成黄色,目视识别效果直观明显。其他金属离子的存在对Ag+,Cr3+和Hg2+的识别几乎没有干扰。配体1与Ag+,Cr3+和Hg2+络合的化学计量比均为1∶1,检出限分别是：7.435 8×10-6, 6.126 8×10-6, 3.452 4×10-6 mol·L-1。通过配体2进一步证明了配体1和金属离子识别的结合模式。即螺吡喃结构中N1位取代侧链上的羟基,和其开环体酚氧负离子相互协调并与金属离子结合。

Luminescence Spectra of YGG：RE^3＋, Bi^3＋ （RE = Eu and Tb） and Energy Transfer from Bi^3＋ to RE^3＋

We investigate the luminescence properties of Bi^3＋ and RE^3＋ （RE = Tb or Eu） in a Y3Ga5O12 （YGG） host system. The additional doping of Bi^3＋ can enhance the luminescence of Th^3＋ or Eu^3＋ in this host. Energy transfer from Bi^3＋ to Tb^3＋ and Eu^3＋ is observed and the mechanism of energy transfer is investigated. Mechanism of energy transfer can be explained as electric multipole interaction since the Bi^3＋ emission band and Tb^3＋ or Eu^3＋ excitation band overlaps and the Bi^3＋ emission intensity decreases while the intensity of Tb^3＋ or Eu^3＋ increases with the increase of Tb^3＋ or Eu^3＋ concentration. Therefore, Bi^3＋ ion is a kind of efficient sensitizer to the Tb^3＋ and Eu^3＋ activators in the Y3Ga5O12 host.

Scintillation properties of YPO4: RE (RE=Ce3+, Pr3+ or Nd3+)

The spectra of RE-doped YPO₄ (RE=Ce³⁺, Pr³⁺ or Nd³⁺) have been measured. The spectroscopic and decay kinetics properties of pure host YPO₄ were also studied at 8 K and 300 K, which indicated the host had taken part in the luminescent processes of activators. Under the excitation over the bandgap of the host, the electron could relax to the activators. Through the comparison of spectra and decay time, Nd³⁺ doped YPO₄ had better scinillation properties than Ce³⁺ or Pr³⁺ inYPO₄.     

Broadband and High Efficient 1530 nm Emission from Oxyfluoride Glass Ceramics Codoped with Er3＋ and Yb3＋ Ions

The emission at 1530nm and its applications in optical communications are discussed. The efficient width of the emission band △eff, which is up to 91 nm, is larger as compared with silica-based glass, bismuth glass and ZrF4-BaF2-LaFa-AIF3-NaF （ZBLAN） glass doped by Er^3＋ ions. Under the excitation of 785 nm laser, the emission integral intensity of 153Onto increases about five times in the glass ceramics higher than that in the glass. This is explained by the quantum cutting process by two-photon emission with phonon assistance. The results indicate that the glass ceramics are a promising candidate for developing broadband optical amplifiers in wavelength-division multiplexed systems.
