Laser induced copper electroless plating on polyimide with Q-switch Nd:YAG laser

The results of laser induced deposition of copper on polyimide substrate from copper electrolyte solution are reported. Unlike most work reported in the literatures where CW Ar⁺ lasers were used, a second harmonic (532 nm wavelength) Q-switch Nd:YAG laser was used for our experiments. The deposition process was conducted by laser-catalyzing of the polyimide surface and subsequent photothermal-accelerated reduction of copper-complex ions in an alkaline reducing environment. The characteristics of the deposited copper line were investigated in terms of laser beam scanning speed, and the number of scans. The surface morphology and chemical composition of the deposited copper were analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDX). The optimum processing conditions have been identified. The copper deposit was found to adhere well to the substrate.     

Infinite paths in planar graphs III, 1‐way infinite paths

An infinite graph is 2‐indivisible if the deletion of any finite set of vertices from the graph results in exactly one infinite component. Let G be a 4‐connected, 2‐indivisible, infinite, plane graph. It is known that G contains a spanning 1‐way infinite path. In this paper, we prove a stronger result by showing that, for any vertex x and any edge e on a facial cycle of G, there is a spanning 1‐way infinite path in G from x and through e. Results will be used in two forthcoming papers to establish a conjecture of Nash‐Williams. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory     

Balancing a Rotor with Two Coupled Perfectly Rigid Bodies

The steady motions of a vertical rotor balanced by two coupled perfectly rigid bodies (PRBs) are analyzed for stability. The rotor executes plane-parallel motions. The PRBs can rotate together about the rotor axis and about its transverse axes through equal angles but in opposite directions. It is established that when the mass of the PRBs is much less than that of the rotor and the rotor spins with a superresonant speed, only the basic steady motions, which are those of the best-balanced rotor, are asymptotically stable.     

Forward-angle yields of 2≤Z≤11 isotopes in the reaction of 18O(35A MeV) with 9Be

A systematic investigation of the forward-angle inclusive yields of 2≤Z≤11 isotopes produced in collisions of ¹⁸O projectile nuclei with a ⁹Be target in the Fermi energy region (35A MeV) is performed. The measurements were based on the use of the COMBAS double achromatic kinematical separator in the spectrometry mode at the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, FLNR (JINR, Dubna). The velocity, isotopic, and element distributions are presented. There is no unique mechanism that would explain the total set of results obtained in this experiment. A dominant role of low-energy reaction mechanisms is observed. The intensity of secondary beams of halolike nuclei ¹¹Li, ¹²Be, and ¹⁴Be is determined.     

Quantum discreteness effects and flicker fluctuations in tunneling conductivity

An analysis of events in the tunneling junction shows that the interaction of one-electron processes in a many-electron system may be a source of scale-invariant low-frequency fluctuations of conductivity (the interaction consists in that the quantum probability of an electron transition depends on fast random changes in the environment in the course of the transition, including the changes caused by analogous transitions). The theory relates flicker fluctuations in the tunneling conductivity to the discrete character of the spectrum of electron states and explains the nonlinearity of the noise-current characteristic observed in nanocomposites.     

Quantum frequency standards based on the soliton state of a Bose-Einstein condensate

A method for stabilizing frequency based on using the soliton state of the Bose-Einstein condensate of alkali metal atoms as an atomic source was suggested. The critical total number of lithium condensate particles at which the existence of a quasi-one-dimensional soliton in the condensate was possible and the lifetime of such a soliton were estimated. The attainable accuracy of measuring reference transition frequencies in the suggested standard was shown to be substantially higher than with the known quantum frequency standards.     

Explicit Formulas for Generalized Action–Angle Variables in a Neighborhood of an Isotropic Torus and Their Application

Different versions of the Darboux–Weinstein theorem guarantee the existence of action–angle-type variables and the harmonic-oscillator variables in a neighborhood of isotropic tori in the phase space. The procedure for constructing these variables is reduced to solving a rather complicated system of partial differential equations. We show that this system can be integrated in quadratures, which permits reducing the problem of constructing these variables to solving a system of quadratic equations. We discuss several applications of this purely geometric fact in problems of classical and quantum mechanics.     

Indeterminacy Criteria for the Stieltjes Matrix Moment Problem

In this paper, we obtain criteria for the indeterminacy of the Stieltjes matrix moment problem. We obtain explicit formulas for Stieltjes parameters and study the multiplicative structure of the resolvent matrix. In the indeterminate case, we study the analytic properties of the resolvent matrix of the moment problem. We describe the set of all matrix functions associated with the indeterminate Stieltjes moment problem in terms of linear fractional transformations over Stieltjes pairs.
