SYNTHESIS OF CeO2 NANOPARTICLES IN W/ O MICROEMULSION

The phase composition and properties of microemulsion system of Titron N-101 / n-pentanol/ n-octane/ water (ammonia solution) were studied. CeO₂ nanopaticles were prepared by the reaction of cerous nitrate.     

Thermoluminescence response as a function of irradiation temperature

Thermoluminescence response at different irradiation temperatures and photon energies has been studied. Analyses of the glow curve and the peak height of TLD 200, 600, 700 and CaSO₄:Dy for irradiations using ⁶⁰Co, ¹³⁷Cs and ²²⁶Ra were made.     

Blue laser lithography for making antireflective submicron structures on silicon

The application of blue laser lithography for creating antireflective submicron structures on a crystalline silicon substrate was evaluated. The assembled blue laser lithography system was obtained by modifying a commercial blue laser optical pickup head and consisting of a 405-nm-wavelength blue laser and a 0.85-numerical-aperture objective lens. Si substrates were patterned with submicron column patterns of various periods and aspect ratios by blue laser lithography using a sputtered Ge-Sb-Sn-O layer as a resist. The reflectance of the patterned Si substrate decreased to 3% on average in the 300–1000 nm wavelength range, with a low sensitivity to the angle of incident light. Such patterned substrates showed potential for application in crystalline Si solar cells.     

Computational studies on 3,5,7,10,12,14,15,16-octanitro-3,5,7,10,12,14,15,16-octaaza-pentacyclo[7.5.1.12,8.04,13.06,11]hexadecane as potential high-energy-density compound

The B3LYP/6-31G(d) method of density functional theory was used to study molecular geometry, electronic structure, infrared spectrum, and thermodynamic properties. Detonation properties were evaluated using Kamlet–Jacobs equations based on the calculated density and heat of formation. Thermal stability of 3,5,7,10,12,14,15,16-octanitro-3,5,7,10,12,14,15,16-octaaza-pentacyclo[7.5.1.1^2,8.0^4,13.0^6,11]hexadecane (cage-HMX) was investigated by calculating the bond dissociation energy at unrestricted B3LYP/6-31G(d) level. The calculated results show that the first step of pyrolysis is the rupture of the N–NO₂ bond. The crystal structure obtained by molecular mechanics belongs to P2₁ space group, with lattice parameters a = 8.866 Å, b = 11.527 Å, c = 13.011 Å, Z = 4, and ρ = 2.219 g cm^?3. Both the detonation velocity of 9.79 km s^?1 and the detonation pressure of 45.45 GPa are better than those of CL-20. According to the quantitative standard of energetics and stability as a high-energy-density compound, cage-HMX essentially satisfies this requirement. These results provide basic information for molecular design of novel HEDCs.     

Cooling-induced increase of methane cluster size investigated under a Coulomb explosion scheme

In this letter, we discuss the increase in the average cluster size by lowering the stagnation temperature of the methane （CH4） gas. The Coulomb explosion experiments are conducted to estimate the cluster size and the size distribution. The average CH4 cluster sizes Nay of 6 230 and 6 580 are acquired with the source conditions of 30 bars at 240 K and 60 bars at 296 K, respectively. Empirical estimation suggests a five-fold increase in the average size of the CH4 clusters at 240 K compared with that at room temperature under a backing pressure of 30 bars. A strong nonlinear Hagena parameter relation （Г^＊∝ T0^-3.3） for the CH4 clusters is revealed. The results may be favorable for the production of large-sized clusters by using gases at low temperature and high back pressures.     

Manipulation of atom-to-molecule conversion in a magnetic lattice

Atom-to-molecule conversion by the technique of optical Feshbach resonance in a magnetic lattice is studied in the mean-field approximation. For the case of a shallow lattice, we give the dependence of the atomto-molecule conversion efficiency on tunnelling strength and atomic interaction by taking a double-well as an example. We find that one can obtain a high atom-to-molecule conversion by tuning the tunnelling and interaction strengths of the system. For the case of a deep lattice, we show that the existence of the lattice can improve the atom-to-molecule conversion for certain initial states.
