Application of wavelet transform in-ray spectra analysis

The frequency distribution of different ingredients in-ray spectra,e.g.,photo-peak,fluctuations of counts and Compton region,is separately analyzed.After wavelet transform of-ray spectra,the wavelet coefficients of a photo-peak increase with transforming scales and these coefficients show direct proportion with intensity of peak at determinate scale.A novel algorithm based on wavelet transform is proposed and studied.The results indicate that most of the photo-peaks in multi-spectra can be determined accurately,the-rays energy and intensity of the peak can also be determined.This method has the prospect of being applied in on-line multi-spectra analysis in such fields as radioprotection and nuclear safety monitoring.     

Optical bistability based on surface plasmon coupled between two noble metal films involving Kerr materials

We successfully investigate an optical bistability phenomenon in a layered structure consisting of Kretschmann configuration involving the Kerr-type nonlinear and the silver film. Pure theoretical approaches are employed to investigate that the surface plasmon could easily be coupled and both the reflection and transmission curves versus the incident intensity forms optical bistability. The transmission curves are greatly influenced by the thickness of the second silver film. These results may be useful for designing novel surface plasmon-based optical devices and will be essential for future classical and quantum information processes.     

THERMODYNAMIC ANALYSIS AND FORMATION ENTHALPY CALCULATION OF OXYGEN VACANCY DEFECT IN DOPED LITHIUM NIOBATE CRYSTALS

Based on the thermodynamic analysis of oxygen vacancy defects in lithium niobate (LiNbO₃ (LN)) and the data of thermogravimetric experiment, the formation enthalpies of congruent and several rare-earth (RE) doped LN crystals have been calculated. It was found that the formation enthalpy of oxygen vacancies can be decreased evidently by doping with valence-changeable RE ions. The experimental results were discussed and a new reduction process for photorefractive LN crystals at a relatively low temperature was proposed, and the reduction-treated crystals showed good effect in practical use.     

宏观放电参数对快原子态氮(N+,Nf)的影响

采用氮直流辉光放电等离子体中快电子和重粒子(N₂⁺,N⁺,N_f)混合的蒙特卡罗方法,模拟研究了快原子态粒子(N⁺,N_f)的产生率及轰击阴极的能量分布随宏观放电参数(P,V)的变化规律.结果表明,存在一最佳放电条件,使阴极壁处粒子(N⁺,N_f)的粒子数密度大且能量高;当电压大于800V时,轰击阴极的活性粒子(N⁺,N_f),主要由N₂⁺-N₂离解过程产生,电压小于300V时,主要由e^--N₂离解过程产生,模拟结果与实验结果相符合.     

GEOMETRIC AND ELECTRONIC STRUCTURES OF Ti8C12 CLUSTER

The electronic structure of Ti₈C₁₂ clusters with three possible geometric structures suggested in the literature is studied using the discrete-variational local-density-functional method. The results show that the ground states of the clusters are all degenerate, which means further Jahn-Teller distortions for the geometric structures of clusters. The results also indicate that the distorted dodecahedral Ti₈C₁₂ cluster, which is proposed by Guo et al. and optimized by the first principle calculations, is the most stable one among the clusters we considered and its electronic structure can explain the experimental observations. In this cluster, there is a strong pd bonding between Ti and C atoms, and the density of states at the Fermi energy is high.     

A DOUBLE-TEMPERATURE-GRADIENT TECHNIQUE FOR THE GROWTH OF PURE C60 SINGLE CRYSTALS FROM THE VAPOR PHASE

Pure C₆₀ single crystals were grown by a sublimation-condensation method in an evacuated dosed quartz tube situated in a double-temperature-gradient furnace. Large C₆₀ single crystals, up to a size of 0.6 mm×1.0 mm×2.0 mm with quite smooth and shiny faces, were obtained. X-ray diffraction, electron diffraction and X-ray morphology were carried out and showed that the quality of large C₆₀ single crystals grown by the double-temperature-gradient technique is excellent. In this paper the experimental results of the growth of large C₆₀ single crystals are reported and the morphological and structural characterizations are discussed in detail.
