Determination of preferential rare earth adatom adsorption geometries on Si(001)

The adsorption patterns of rare earth atoms on Si(001) were investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy measurements and density functional calculations. Stable configurations were systematically determined via calculation of binding energies of various adatom coverage and adsorption geometry. Competition between inter-adatom hybridization and Coulomb repulsion is the mechanism contributing to binding energy minima associated with commonly observed rare earth adsorption geometries. Comparison of stable configurations with experimental scanning tunneling microscopy images demonstrated accuracy of the theoretical models. This paves a way for the understanding of self-assembly of rare earth disilicide nanowires on vicinal Si(001) substrates.     

Real-time surface profile measurement using a feedback type of sinusoidal phase modulating interferometer

In this paper, we propose a sinusoidal phase modulating (SPM) interferometer that is insensitive to external disturbances, and its measuring principle is analyzed theoretically. In the SPM interferometer, the interference signal is detected by a high-speed image sensor based on a low-speed CCD and a signal processing circuit is used to obtain the phase of each point on the surface. Therefore, the surface profile can be measured real-time. The experiments measuring the surface profile of a wedge-shaped optical flat show that the measurement time of the SPM interferometer is less than 10 ms, the repetitive measurement accuracy is 4.2 nm. The results show that the impacts of nonlinear distortion of the piezoelectric transducer (PZT) and part external disturbance are removed.     

Preparation via solid-state reaction at room temperature and characterization of layered nanocrystalline NH4MnPO4·H2O

The layered nanocrystalline NH₄MnPO₄·H₂O was obtained by grinding MnSO₄·H₂O and (NH₄)₃PO₄·3H₂O in the presence of surfactant PEG-400 via a solid-state reaction at room temperature, maintaining the mixture at room temperature for 12 h, washing the mixture with water, and drying at 60 °C. The resulting NH₄MnPO₄·H₂O and its products of thermal decomposition were characterized using thermogravimetry and differential thermal analyses (TG/DTA), IR, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV–vis, and magnetic susceptibility. The data showed that when dried at 60 °C for 5 h, highly crystallized orthorhombic NH₄MnPO₄·H₂O (space group Pmnm(59)) was obtained with an average particle size of 45 nm and an average interlayer distance of 0.8701 nm. On the other hand, monoclinic nanocrystalline Mn₂P₂O₇ with space group C2/m(12) was obtained when the product was calcined at 600 °C for 3 h. Magnetic susceptibility measurements from room temperature to 2.5 K point to ferrimagnetic ordering at T_N～17 K.
