Fractal surface for calibration of an optical profiler

The surface profiler has become a basic metrology tool for the characterization of high-quality optical surfaces. The unknown effective resolution of the surface profiler is problematic in using the instrument, as it distorts the measured surface profile. In this paper, we suggest and describe the use of a fractal surface as a standard test surface with which to calibrate the effective resolution of a surface profiler. Fractal surfaces have the characteristics of irregularity, self-similarity and low correlation, with the correlation length being approximately equal to the length of the profile; therefore, a log-log plot of the power spectral density curve is a straight line. The power spectral density curves of fractal surfaces, which can be acquired through surface characterization techniques such as atomic force microscopy, are fitted to a straight line to act as a standard with which to calibrate an optical profiler in different ranges. Through calibration, we can obtain the effective resolution of the optical profiler, and the surface profiler is found to have good transmission capacity within the effective spatial frequency range.

Spin-dependent Andreev reflection in a three-terminal Aharonov-Bohm interferometer with coherent indirect coupling

Within the framework of non-equilibrium Green’s functions, we investigate the spin-dependent Andreev reflection (AR) in a three-terminal Aharonov-Bohm interferometer with double quantum dot, taking account of the coherent indirect coupling via the superconducting reservoir. It is found that the time-reversal symmetry is broken by the crossed Andreev reflection (CAR) process, and moreover that the spin-value effect of the linear conductance, the spin-polarised AR current, and a pure spin current can be generated by means of the normal AR and the CAR. Expressions for the AR conductances (the transport coefficients) governing the AR properties of this system are derived analytically. The effect of the coherent indirect coupling on the conductance, the Andreev reflected tunneling magnetoresistance (ARTMR), and the spin-related current in the presence of the AR are amply analyzed. Our results indicate that the optimal properties of this system can be realised by tuning the external parameters.     

Nonlinear polarization rotation-induced pulse shaping in a stretched-pulse ytterbium-doped fiber laser

We report on controllable pulse shaping in a Yb-doped stretched-pulse fiber laser followed by a high-power chirped pulse amplifier. We demonstrate that the pulses after an extra-cavity grating pair change their intensity profile from Lorentz to Gaussian and then to sech2 shapes by adjusting the intra-cavity polarization through a quarter-wave plate inside the fiber laser cavity. The laser pulses with different pulse shapes exhibit pulse-to-pulse amplitude fluctuation of -- 1.02%, while the sech2-shaped pulse train is provided with a more stable free-running repetition rate as a result of the stronger self-phase modulation in the fiber laser cavity than Lorentz- and Gaussian-shaped pulse trains.     

Study of HfSiO film prepared by electron beam evaporation for high-k gate dielectric applications

The purpose of this paper is to report some experimental results with HfSiO films formed on silicon substrates by electron beam evaporation (EB-PVD) and annealed at different temperatures. The images of atomic force microscope (AFM) indicated that HfSiO film annealed at 900 °C was still amorphous, with a surface roughness of 0.173 nm. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis revealed that the chemical composition of the film was (HfO₂)₃(SiO₂) and Hf-Si-O bonds existed in the annealed film. Electrical measurements showed that the equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) was 4 nm, the dielectric constant was around 6, the breakdown voltage was 10 MV/cm, the fixed charge density was −1.2 × 10¹² cm⁻², and the leakage current was 0.4 μA/cm² at the gate bias of 2 V for 6 nm HfSiO film. The annealing after deposition effectively reduced trapping density and the leakage current, and eliminated hysteresis in the C-V curves. Annealing also induced SiO₂ growth at the interface.     

水稻秸秆接力处理过程中的红外光谱研究

作物秸秆就地焚烧已经和正在引起严重的大气污染,土壤微生物对作物秸秆的较难分解是作物秸秆农业利用的主要限制因子之一。文章采用傅里叶红外光谱(FTIR)分析技术对水稻秸秆接力处理(化学水解—微生物培养)过程进行了研究,分析探讨了接力处理的化学机理。由红外光谱的分析可见,经过接力处理,水稻秸秆半纤维素和纤维素大大降低,C／N比也降低到适合微生物生长的范围,硅元素的含量也降低,水溶性的物质含量升高,其结果与化学分析的结果一致。文章提出的水稻秸秆接力处理方法能为作物秸秆的农业利用提供有效途径。     

多维谱的简化探测

提出一种利用谱编辑的方法来简化二维谱的探测,使得一张二维谱可以被简化为N条一维谱(N等于二维谱中F1维上的谱线总数),从而达到缩短数据采集时间和减少数据贮存空间的目的。文中给出了运用此方法探测二维碳氢异核相关实验的实例,并分析了由于F1维的谱线不为δ函数而产生的编辑误差的大小,最后将此方法推广到三维的简化探测,即通过对N张二维谱的编辑获得三维谱的信息。
