Gallium arsenide avalanche-type S-diode based on a n+-π-ν-n structure

The results are presented of an investigation of the electrical characteristics of avalanche S-diodes based on a new type of structure (⁺---n), which is obtained by diffusing iron in GaAs with n = 1.10¹⁷ cm^–3. The diodes have regions of S-type negative differential resistance (NDR), for both bias polarities and have a number of other features by comparison with diodes based on the --n structures with fused contacts. We discuss the mechanism for the formation of the NDR region of the voltage-current characteristics of the diode.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 4, pp. 54–58, April, 1986.     

Vacuum polarization by a Coulomb center and strong magnetic field. modification of Coulomb's law

The proper time method is used to examine the effect of polarization of the electron-positron vacuum on the nature of the interaction of a charged particle with the field of a nucleus and a magnetic field. It is shown that the interaction of an electron with a nucleus becomes anisotropic in the presence of a magnetic field. The dielectric constants of the vacuum and the effective charge of the Coulomb center are calculated.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 11, pp. 38–45, November, 1986.     

Structure and Thermal Stability of La0.10WO3+y; A Hexagonal Tungsten Bronze Related Phase Formed at High Pressure

The structure and thermal stability of a hexagonal tungsten bronze (HTB) related compound, La_xWO_3+y with x≈0.10 and y≈0.15, has been studied by X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, and electron microscopy. The structure was refined by the Rietveld method from X-ray powder diffractometer data of a La_0.10WO₃ sample prepared at T=1250°C and P=25 kbar, which consisted of two tungsten bronze related phases in 1:1 proportion. The unit cell dimensions are as follows: La_0.108WO_3+y (y≈0.16), a=7.40890(5), and c=3.79329(4) Å (HTB-related structure); La_0.091WO₃, a=3.82458(6) Å (cubic perovskite tungsten bronze (PTB) structure). The lanthanum atoms in La_0.108WO_3+y are located on the hexagonal axis and statistically distributed on two sites close to the tungsten atom plane. Thermal stability studies of the La_0.10WO₃ sample in an argon atmosphere under ambient pressure conditions revealed that the HTB-related compound is metastable, decomposing to the stable PTB-type structure and WO₃. It was also found from the TG experiments in argon and oxygen that additional oxygen atoms (y) are present in the structure, thus forming a lanthanum tungsten oxide of the above composition. The electron diffraction and microanalysis studies confirmed that crystals of the HTB- and PTB-type structures were formed, with a lanthanum content of x≈0.1.
