Magnetoexciton in semiconductor concentric double rings

We investigate theoretically the magnetoexciton states in semiconductor concentric quantum double rings using the multi-band effective mass theory. We find that a perpendicular magnetic field can lead to oscillations in the exciton energy which appear as kinks in the magneto-photoluminescence (PL) spectra as the magnetic field increases. The spatial distribution of the exciton over the rings depends sensitively on the thicknesses of the inner and outer rings. The tunneling coupling between the inner and outer rings and the heavy-hole and light-hole mixing results in different anticrossing behaviors. Exciton can be converted into a spatially separated type-II exciton by tuning the thickness, the inner and/or outer ring radius and the magnetic field. We show that this type I–type II transition is reflected in the oscillator strength of the PL spectrum which will be the experimental signature that will provide us with information about the spatial distribution of the exciton.     

有机半导体的物理掺杂理论

基于最低未被占据分子轨道（LUMO）和最高被占据分子轨道（HOMO）的高斯态密度分布与载流子在允许量子态中的费米-狄拉克（Fermi-Dirac）分布,提出有机半导体中物理掺杂的理论模型;研究了掺杂浓度、温度和禁带宽度对载流子浓度的影响,并与一些报道的实验结果做了比较.研究发现无论是否掺杂,温度升高时,有机半导体中的载流子浓度都会增大,并且随温度倒数的线性减小而指数增大;对于本征有机半导体,载流子浓度随禁带宽度的增大而指数下降,随高斯分布宽度的平方指数增加;对杂质和主体不同能级关系的掺杂情形下掺杂浓度对载 关键词： 有机半导体 掺杂 高斯态密度 载流子浓度     

First-principles study of structrural and corrected band properties of wurtzite Zn1-xCdxO and Zn1-xMgxO systems

A first-principles method based on density functional theory(DFT),a generalized gradient approximation(GGA),and a projector-augmented wave(PAW) are used to study the structual and band properties of wurtzite Zn1-xCdxO and Zn1-xMgxO(0 ≤x≤1) ternary alloys.By taking into account all of the possible structures,the band gaps of Zn1-xCdxO and Zn1-xMgxO alloys are corrected and compared with experimental data.     

An efficient deterministic secure quantum communication scheme based on cluster states and identity authentication

A novel efficient deterministic secure quantum communication scheme based on four-qubit cluster states and single-photon identity authentication is proposed. In this scheme, the two authenticated users can transmit two bits of classical information per cluster state, and its efficiency of the quantum communication is 1/3, which is approximately 1.67 times that of the previous protocol presented by Wang et al [Chin. Phys. Lett. 23 (2006) 2658]. Security analysis shows the present scheme is secure against intercept-resend attack and the impersonator's attack. Furthermore, it is more economic with present-day techniques and easily processed by a one-way quantum computer.     

Vacuum Outer-Gap Structure in Pulsar Outer Magnetospheres

We study the vacuum outer-gap structure in the outer magnetosphere of rotation-powered pulsars by considering the limit of trans-field height through a pair production process. In this case, the trans-field height is limited by the photon-photon pair production process and the outer boundary of the outer gap can be extended outside the light cylinder. By solving self-consistently the Poisson equation for electrical potential and the Boltzmann equations of electrons/positrons and γ-rays in a vacuum outer gap for the parameters of Vela pulsar, we obtain an approximate geometry of the outer gap, i.e. the trans-field height is limited by the pair-production process and increases with the radial distance to the star and the width of the outer gap starts at the inner boundary （near the null charge surface） and ends at the outer boundary which locates inside or outside the light cylinder depending on the inclination angle.

以钛酸四丁酯为原料,采用溶胶-微波法(Sol-Microwave Method)合成了镧和铈共掺型纳米TiO2粉体(La-Ce-TiO2),借助XRD、XPS和UV-Vis等测试手段对其进行了表征,并以甲基橙为模型污染物考察了掺杂量对样品光催化活性的影响规律.XRD分析表明,所得粉体均为锐钛矿相纳米TiO2,且稀土元素镧和铈掺杂后纳米TiO2特征衍射峰宽化,强度降低;XPS分析表明,镧和铈掺杂后样品表面存在大量的氧缺位;UV-Vis吸收光谱表明,所得粉体在400 nm以下均有连续宽化的吸收带,且La和Ce掺杂后样品对光的吸收显著增强,这足由于La(Ⅲ)-O荷移跃迁以及Ce(Ⅳ)f→d跃迁和Ce(Ⅳ)-O荷移跃迁所致;光催化实验表明,La和Ce共掺杂能显著提高纳米TiO2的光催化活性,其中当La(Ⅲ)和Ce(Ⅳ)掺杂量分别为2%和0.04%时,纳米TiO2光催化剂具有较高的催化活性,自然光照射下光催化氧化处理卷烟厂蒸叶车间废水,效果较好,废水COD去除率达到86.11%.

A diode-pumped continuous-wave （CW） mode-locked Nd：YVO4/KTP green laser with semiconductor saturable absorber mirror （SESAM） is demonstrated. The maximum output power of CW mode-locked green laser is obtained to be 552 mW at the incident pump power of 7.25 W, corresponding to an opticai-optical conversion efficiency of about 7.6%. The 532-nm CW mode-locked pulse duration is estimated to be about 8.4 ps with the repetition rate of 87 MHz.     

High-spin states in neutron-rich 102Mo nucleus

High-spin states in neutron-rich 102Mo nucleus have been studied by measuring the prompt γ-rays in the spontaneous fission of 252Cf. The previous level scheme has been updated and some new levels and transitions are identified. The one-phonon γ-band is expanded and a band head level of the two-phonon γ-band is proposed. The systematic characteristics of yrast bands, one-phonon γ-bands, two-phonon γ-bands and quasi-particle bands in 102Mo, 104Mo and 106Mo are discussed.     

Bulk-sensitive spectroscopic studies on noncentrosymmetric superconducting system of Mg–Ir–B

We present the data from ultrahigh-resolution laser-excited photoemission spectroscopy on a newly discovered noncentrosymmetric superconductor Mg₁₀Ir₁₉B₁₆. We observed the evidences for the opening of superconducting gap where numerical fittings show that isotropic s-wave model can satisfactorily explain the behavior of spectra near the Fermi level. We also present the valence band photoemission spectrum and B K fluorescence spectrum to discuss the basic electronic structure of Mg₁₀Ir₁₉B₁₆.     

6.17-W continuous wave operation of a 2132-nm c-cut Tm,Ho:YAP pumped by a laser diode of 794.3 nm

Continuous wave (CW) operation of a c-cut Tm (5 at %), Ho (0.3 at %):YAP laser at 2132 nm wavelength were reported in this paper. In the temperature of 77 K, the Tm,Ho:YAP crystal was double end-pumped by a 21.4 W fiber-coupled laser diode (LD) at the center wavelength of 794.3 nm. Different resonator lengths and output couplers for the total pump power were tried. The resonator length was 205 mm, and the maximum CW output power of 6.17 W was acquired, corresponding to an optical-optical conversion efficiency of 28.8% and a slope efficiency of 35.6%.
