Reduction of Electron Leakage in a Deep Ultraviolet Nitride Laser Diode with a Double-Tapered Electron Blocking Layer

A double-tapered AlGaN electron blocking layer (EBL) is proposed to apply in a deep ultraviolet semiconductor laser diode. Compared with the inverse double-tapered EBL, the laser with the double-tapered EBL shows a higher slope efficiency, which indicates that effective enhancement in the transportation of electrons and holes is achieved. Particularly, comparisons among the double-tapered EBL, the inverse double-tapered EBL, the singletapered EBL and the inverse single-tapered EBL show that the double-tapered EBL has the best performance in terms of current leakage.     

激光照射薄膜靶的微微秒照相

激光等离子体实验中。许多现象是在微微秒和微米范围内发生的。为了研究这些现象,采用微微秒激光脉冲与高分辨率光学相结合的方法可以提供必要的空间和时间分辨率。实验观察是在碘激光系统AsterixⅢ上进行的。碘激光输出波长为1.3μm,脉冲能量最大输出为300J,脉冲宽度为300ps。靶面功率密度为3×10~(15)W·cm~(-2)相应的半能量点的直径为85μm。利用脉冲宽度为10ps的主被动锁模染料激光脉冲,在与碘激光成90°的方向上,拍摄了时间分辨的阴影照片。同以往的方法相比,染料激光系统作了相当大的改进;特别是染料激光脉冲与碘激光脉冲的同步。染料激光脉冲相对于碘激光脉冲的到达时间可以预先选择,其漂移时间为200ps。所拍得的阴影照片的空间分辨率为10μm。从阴影照片可以看出,除了被加速的冷箔材料之外,还观察到“发丝”、“冲击”等的形成以及沿着靶的表面传导等现象。随着激光强度的增加,这些现象变得愈来愈明显。由于在等离子体与靶架之间存在着很高的电位差,所以对于某些放电现象的观察可能更为可靠。用条纹相机定量地测量了2和10μm厚的塑料薄箔条的膨胀。在高强度激光照射下观察了有机玻璃中等离子体云的形成以及由于激光束的冲击所释放出的冲击波。实验和理论计算表明,激光产生的等离子体被充电到10~     

Spectra and Spin Polarization of the Valence Band Auger Emission from Cr （100） Surface

Calculations have been carried out on spin-polarized Auger electron emission from a seven-layer chromium (lO0)-film. The core and valence states concerning the Auger transition are obtained from a self-consistent full-potential linearized augmented plane wave calculation by using a repeated slab geometry. The calculations refer to experiments on the L3M23 V- and L3 VV-transRions that have recently been carried out by Heinzmann et al. The Auger spectrum obtained for the L3VV transition agrees relatively well with our calculations, whereas the observed L3M23V-Auger structure is considerably wider than that predicted by our theory. Nevertheless, the spin-polarization in the latter case, which is about -13%, is in fair agreement with the experiment, different from the L3VV-transition where the experiment yields -10% as opposed to the theoretical value of -25%. We give possible reasons for the origin of these discrepancies.     

纳米复合超硬薄膜中与界面有关的弛豫现象

利用内耗技术研究了TiSiN系列纳米复合超硬薄膜的结构弛豫和硬化机理.当共振频率大约在100 Hz时在230～280 ℃范围内观察到一个弛豫型的内耗峰.计算出激活能为0.7～1.0 eV,弛豫时间指数前因子为10-10～10-12秒.对比一系列样品,发现硬度越高内耗峰越低,在硬度高于50 GPa的薄膜中没有内耗峰.内耗峰随退火温度升高而不断降低,直至600～750 ℃退火时消失, 并且杨氏模量开始增加,这跟样品退火后硬度增长是一致的.结果表明内耗峰来源于样品中界面的弛豫过程.

A selective view of stochastic inference and modeling problems in nanoscale biophysics

Advances in nanotechnology enable scientists for the first time to study biological processes on a nanoscale molecule-by-molecule basis. They also raise challenges and opportunities for statisticians and applied probabilists. To exemplify the stochastic inference and modeling problems in the field, this paper discusses a few selected cases, ranging from likelihood inference, Bayesian data augmentation, and semi- and non-parametric inference of nanometric biochemical systems to the utilization of stochastic integro-differential equations and stochastic networks to model single-molecule biophysical processes. We discuss the statistical and probabilistic issues as well as the biophysical motivation and physical meaning behind the problems, emphasizing the analysis and modeling of real experimental data.

Characterization and separation of Al_(13) species using gel-filtration chromatography

Polyaluminum chloride (PAC) coagulant has been developed and widely used in water and wastewater treatment industry since the 1980s[1]. PAC is normally made by partial hydrolysis of acid aluminum chloride solution using slow alkaline titration method. However, this method would result in many different Al species. Among these Al species, it seems that tridecamer (Al13O4(OH) 724 , often denoted by Al13) is the most effective and stable polymeric Al species for water and wastewater treatme…     

载体对其负载的Cu-Co双金属催化剂上5-羟甲基糠醛氢解选择性生成2,5-二甲基呋喃的影响

碳-氧键氢解是生物质呋喃基化合物制备交通燃料常见的模型反应,其中5-羟甲基糠醛(HMF)转化为汽油添加剂2,5-二甲基呋喃(DMF)尤为引人关注.本文采用CeO2,ZrO2和Al2O3负载的Cu-Co双金属催化剂用于HMF选择性氢解制DMF的反应中.采用X射线衍射、N2吸附-脱附、投射电镜、H2-程序升温还原、氨-程序升温脱附和元素分析表征了新鲜的和使用过催化剂的结构,并将其与催化活性相关联.Cu-Co/CeO2催化剂通过在大的Cu颗粒上还原C=O键生成了最多的2,5双(羟甲基呋喃)(BHMF).但Cu-Co/Al2O3催化剂具有高度分散的Cu,Cu-Co复合氧化物和大量的弱酸位,因而生成DMF的选择性最高.Cu-Co/ZrO2催化剂则由于存在强酸位,DMF选择性较低,生成了各种过度氢解产物,如2,5而甲基四氢呋喃和5,5-二(亚甲基)双(2-甲基呋喃).因此,考察了Cu-Co/Al2O3催化剂上的反应路径,以及温度、氢气压力和时间等操作条件的影响,使其具有较优的HMF转化率和DMF选择性.
