Measurement of B(0)(d)-B_(0)(d) mixing rate from the time evolution of dilepton events at the upsilon(4S)

We report a determination of the B(0)(d)-&B_(0)(d) mixing parameter Deltam(d) based on the time evolution of dilepton yields in Upsilon(4S) decays. The measurement is based on a 5.9 fb(-1) data sample collected by the Belle detector at KEKB. The proper-time difference distributions for same-sign and opposite-sign dilepton events are simultaneously fitted to an expression containing Deltam(d) as a free parameter. Using both muons and electrons, we obtain Deltam(d) = 0.463+/-0.008 (stat)+/-0.016 (syst) ps(-1). This is the first determination of Deltam(d) from time evolution measurements at the Upsilon(4S). We also place limits on possible CPT violations.

Single-shot extreme ultraviolet laser imaging of nanostructures with wavelength resolution

We have demonstrated near-wavelength resolution microscopy in the extreme ultraviolet. Images of 50 nm diameter nanotubes were obtained with a single ~1 ns duration pulse from a desktop-size 46.9 nm laser. We measured the modulation transfer function of the microscope for three different numerical aperture zone plate objectives, demonstrating that 54 nm half-period structures can be resolved. The combination of near-wavelength spatial resolution and high temporal resolution opens myriad opportunities in imaging, such as the ability to directly investigate dynamics of nanoscale structures.     

Effect of boric acid on structure,morphology and luminescent properties of divalent europium doped calcium aluminate phosphors

Blue phosphors Ca_1 − xAl₂O₄: xEu²⁺ were prepared by high temperature solid-state method. Their structure, morphology and luminescent properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and fluorescence spectroscopy. The effect of different amounts of fluxing agent H₃BO₃ on structure, morphology and luminescent properties of blue phosphors Ca_1 − xAl₂O₄: xEu²⁺ luminous intensity caused by different amount of H₃BO₃ was also investigated. The amount of H₃BO₃ doped Ca_1 − xAl₂O₄: xEu²⁺ in optimal luminous intensity had been determined. The results showed that both the excitation and emission spectra of samples were all broad bands, and that the peak of emission spectra was near 442 nm, which was corresponding to the 4f⁶5d → 4f⁷ transition of Eu²⁺ illuminating blue light. Ca_1 − xAl₂O₄: xEu²⁺ (x = 3.5 mol%) could be gained with good morphology and the best luminous intensity when H₃BO₃ mass ratio was 0.5 wt%.

Dopant diffusion and surface morphology of vanadium implanted 4H-silicon carbide

The diffusion behaviours of vanadium implanted p- and n-type 4H-SiC are investigated by using the secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). Significant redistribution, especially out-diffusion of vanadium towards the sample surface is not observed after 1650℃ annealing for both p- and n-type samples. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is applied to the characterization of surface morphology, indicating the formation of continuous long furrows running in one direction across the wafer surface after 1650℃ annealing. The surface roughness results from the evaporation and re-deposition of Si species on the surface during annealing. The chemical compositions of sample surface are investigated using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results of C 1s and Si 2p core-level spectra are presented in detail to demonstrate the evaporation of Si from the wafer and the deposition of SiO₂ on the sample surface during annealing.     

Characteristics of Raman spectra of natural clinochlore at 200 degrees C and 0.95-7.70 GPa

Variation of crystal structure of natural clinochlore with pressure was investigated by the approach of diamond anvil cell (DAC) and in situ micro-Raman spectroscopic measurement at 200 degrees C and up to 7.7 GPa. The 481 and 786 cm(-1) peaks shift towards high-frequency linearly with increasing pressure at 200 degrees C. The linear relations between Raman shift (N, cm(-1)) and pressure (P, GPa) for the two peaks are: N = 11.136P+482.6 (R2 = 0.987 4) and N = 5.055P+785.7 (R2 = 0.983 7), respectively. The 865 cm(-1) peak arising from the stretching mode of the Si-O(nb) shifts slightly because of the strong repulsion between T cations at the tetrahedral sites and M cations at the octahedral sites in the TOT layer. Raman shift of 481 cm(-1) and 786 means the shortening of the length of M-O(br) and Si-CO(br) bonds since the peaks are contributed by the stretching mode of the M-O(br) and Si-O(br) respectively. No phase transition of clinochlore under the experimental condition was found. The results indicate that chlorite minerals may be stable at least at a depth of 80-90 km in the cold subduction zones, and the fluid derived from chlorite dehydration may be an important fact for earthquake occurrence in the subduction zones.     

Growth and characterization of type-II ZnO/ZnTe core-shell nanowire arrays for solar cell applications

Large area, well-aligned type-II ZnO/ZnTe core-shell nanowire arrays have been fabricated on an a-plane sapphire substrate. The ZnO nanowires were grown in a furnace by chemical vapor deposition with gold as catalyst and then were coated with a ZnTe shell on the ZnO nanowires surface by a metal-organic chemical deposition chamber. The morphology and size distribution of the ZnO/ZnTe core-shell nanowire arrays were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the crystal structure was examined by x-ray diffraction (XRD). Transmission measurement was used to study the optical properties of the core-shell nanowires. The results indicated that the ZnO/ZnTe core-shell nanowire arrays have good crystalline quality. In addition, it was found that the nanowire arrays have good light absorption characteristics and these properties make it suitable for making photovoltaic devices.     

Power coupler kick of the TRIUMF ICM capture cavities

The TRIUMF Injector CryoModule (ICM) adapted two superconducting single cavities as the capture section for the low injecting energy of 100 keV electrons. Coupler kick induced beam deflection and projected emittance growth are one of the prime concerns of the beam stability, especially at low energies. In low energy applications, the electron velocity changes rapidly inside the cavity, which makes the numerical analysis much more complicated. The commonly used theoretical formulas of the direct integral or the Panofsky- Wenzel theorem is not suitable for the kick calculation of β <1 electrons. Despite that, the above mentioned kick calculation method doesn't consider injecting electron energy, the beam offset due to the coupler kick may not be negligible because of the low injection energy even if the kick is optimized. Thus the beam dynamics code TRACK is used here for the simulation of the power coupler kick perturbation. The coupler kick can be compensated for by a judicious choice of the coupler position in successive cavities from upstream to downstream. The simulation shows that because of the adiabatic damping by the following superconducting 9-cell cavity, even for the worst orbit distortion case after two capture cavities, the kick is still acceptable at the exit of the ICM after reaching 10 MeV. This paper presents the analysis of the transverse kick and the projected emittance growth induced by the coupler for β <1 electrons. The simulated results of the TRIUMF ICM capture cavities are described and presented.     

Volume polarization holographic recording in thick phenanthrenequinone-doped poly(methyl methacrylate) photopolymer

Volume polarization holographic recording in phenanthrenequinone-doped poly (methyl methacrylate) photopolymer is obtained. Photoinduced birefringence in a 2 mm thick sample is measured by a phase-modulated ellipsometry. The birefringence induced in this material by linearly polarized beam at 514 nm reaches 1.2×10(-5). In addition, ability for recording volume polarization grating using two different polarization configurations is demonstrated and compared. The experimental results show that the diffraction efficiency of the hologram reaches to ～40% by using two orthogonal circularly polarized beams.
