Exciton-related optical nonlinearities in semiconductors and semiconductor microcrystallites

We report on large optical nonlinearities due to specific many-body effects in high-density electron-hole pair systems. On bulk CdS we study the effect of free-carrier screening on the absorption and refraction in the vicinity of the band-gap at room temperature. Steady-state saturable absorption at mW-power levels and four-wave mixing with first-order efficiencies as large as 2% of the incoming light are demonstrated on a 1m slab. On CuBr microcrystallites embedded in glass we investigate the changes of the exciton absorption caused by many-exciton effects both at cryo and room temperature. In contrast to bulk semiconductors, we observe a blue shift of the exciton peak at resonant optical excitation. In addition, strong saturation of absorption with very large contrast shows up. We find Lorentzian saturation intensities in the 100 kW/cm² range.     

Valence state and magnetic interactions in magnetically ordered Eu(Pd1−x Au x )2Si2

X-ray diffraction,¹⁵¹Eu Mössbauer effect (ME) and magnetic susceptibility measurements have been performed to investigate the valence behavior and the magnetic interactions of the Eu ions in the intermetallic series Eu(Pd_1–x Au _x )₂Si₂ (0x1) as a Forx>0.4 all experimental techniques are in agreement with each other and suggest a divalent 4f ⁷ ground state of the Eu ion. Belowx=0.4 the different methods lead to different results: while the lattice parameters and the ME isomer shift suggest an instable behavior of the valence the magnetic susceptibility proves a pure divalent 4f ⁷ ground state. These differences can be explained by assuming a partial extension of the 4f-shell radius such that the localized character of the 4f-electrons is preserved.Dedicated to B.

Non-linear axisymmetric vibration of orthotropic thin circular plates on elastic foundations

This study deals with the large amplitude axisymmetric free vibrations of cylindrically orthotropic thin circular plates resting on elastic foundations. Geometric non-linearity due to moderately large deflections has been included. Movable and immovable simply supported plates and immovable clamped plates resting on Winkler, Pasternak and non-linear Winkler foundations have been considered. The von Kármán type governing equations have been employed. Harmonic vibrations are assumed and the time t is eliminated by the Kantorovich averaging method. An orthogonal point collocation method is used for spatial discretization. Numerical results are presented for the linear natural frequency of the first axisymmetric mode and for the ratio of the non-linear period to the linear period of natural vibration. The effects of foundation parameters, the orthotropic parameter and the edge conditions on the non-linear vibration behaviour have been investigated.     

Emission of neutrino pairs by an electron in an ultrastrong magnetic field

The transitions of relativistic electrons in a magnetic field with the emission of an antineutrino-neutrino pair are considered. Probabilities are obtained for electron transitions to the ground state and weakly excited states. It is shown that in the case of an ultrastrong magnetic field (HH_o=m²c³/e=4.41·10¹³ G) such transitions made a considerable contribution to the total probability of the process.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 3, pp. 110–114, March, 1978.In conclusion, the authors express their profound gratitude to A.

Evidence for a molecular REC-effect in heavy ion collisions

Anisotropy spectra of the MOK X-ray transitions have been measured in F-Al, Al-Al and Cl-Al collisions as a function of the projectile energy. The measurements at higher energies indicate a new molecular effect due to transitions from quasicontinuum states to the MO 1s _σ-orbitals.     

Multiplet structure of P-excitons in CuBr due to valence band degeneracy

The two-photon absorption spectrum of CuBr shows a fourfold energy splitting of the 2P- and 3P-excitons of the Z_1,2 series. The splitting results from d-like contributions to the kinetic energy of the hole (Γ_δ) which lead to a coupling between angular momentum and hole spin. The energy splitting allows to determine the spherical and cubic parameters μ and δ of the reduced exciton mass. The results are compared with corresponding values of an existing band structure calculation.     

Branching ratios between correlated and uncorrelated two electron transitions into the K-shell of Al,Ca, Fe and Ni ions

The branching ratios between the radiative single and double electron transitions into the doubly ionized K-shell were measured as a function of the atomic number. The results are compared with various theoretical predictions.     

Surface diffusion of potassium on theW (112) plane

Dependent on temperature and coverage, numerous spectral density functionsW(f) of the field-emission flicker noise of potassium adsorbed on the tungsten (112) plane were determined. The analysis in terms of the Timm and van der Ziel model gives surface diffusion energies between 0.55 and 0.83 eV for (average) coverages from 0.3 to 1.0 and diffusion coefficients between 2×10^–10 and 3×10^–9 cm²/s at 400 K. The results are compared with those obtained previously for the tungsten (111) region. Some conclusions as to the mechanism of diffusion and the manifestation of phase transitions between commensurate and incommensurate adlayer structures are discussed.On leave from Wrocaw University
