The point of instability of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) due to attractive interactions was studied. Stable 85Rb BECs were created and then caused to collapse by slowly changing the atom-atom interaction from repulsive to attractive using a Feshbach resonance. At a critical value, an abrupt transition was observed in which atoms were ejected from the condensate. By measuring the onset of this transition as a function of number and attractive interaction strength, we determined the stability condition to be N(absolute value of a) / a(ho) = 0.459+/-0.012+/-0.054, slightly lower than the predicted value of 0.574. 相似文献

The reactivity of metals vapor deposited onto organic monolayers has historically been correlated to the metal/terminal organic group chemistry. Here we demonstrate that the chemical composition of the substrate unexpectedly plays a significant role as well. In particular, the reactivity of evaporated titanium toward a cadmium stearate Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) film was found to depend on the substrate upon which the LB film was deposited. Infrared spectra taken in a modified ATR (Kretschmann) geometry with a thin Au substrate showed large changes in peak shape, peak position, and peak width in the C-H stretching region, indicating titanium penetration into the LB film and decomposition of the original well-packed monolayer structure. LB monolayers formed on a platinum oxide (PtO(x)) surface showed remarkably small changes after Ti deposition, indicating only a slight increase in disorder and no significant metal penetration into the film. Films on SiO2 substrates showed reactivity between that of Au and PtO(x). These differences in reactivity can be correlated primarily with the amount of available oxygen associated with each substrate, including surface oxide layers and water incorporated within the LB film. 相似文献

X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) are reported from a series of buried titanium/organic monolayer interfaces accessed through sample delamination in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV). Conventional characterization of such buried interfaces requires ion-mill depth profiling, an energetic process that frequently destroys bonding information by chemically reducing the milled material. In contrast, we show that delaminating the samples at the metal/organic interface in vacuum yields sharp, nonreduced spectra that allow quantitative analysis of the buried interface chemistry. Using this UHV delamination XPS, we examine titanium vapor deposited onto a C18 cadmium stearate Langmuir-Blodgett monolayer supported on Au, SiO2, or PtO2 substrates. Titanium is widely used as an adhesion layer in organic thick film metallization as well as a top metal contact for molecular monolayer junctions, where it has been assumed to form a few-atoms-thick Ti carbide overlayer. We establish here that under many conditions the titanium instead forms a few-nanometers-thick Ti oxide overlayer. Both TiO2 and reduced TiOx species exist, with the relative proportion depending on oxygen availability. Oxygen is gettered during deposition from the ambient, from the organic film, and remarkably, from the substrate itself, producing substrate-dependent amounts of Ti oxide and Ti carbide "damage". On Au substrates, up to 20% of the molecular-monolayer carbon formed titanium carbide, SiO2 substrates approximately 15%, and PtO2 substrates <5%. Titanium oxide formation is also strongly dependent on the deposition rate and chamber pressure. 相似文献

For the past 50 years, atomic standards based on the frequency of the cesium ground-state hyperfine transition have been the most accurate time pieces in the world. We now report a comparison between the cesium fountain standard NIST-F1, which has been evaluated with an inaccuracy of about 4 x 10(-16), and an optical frequency standard based on an ultraviolet transition in a single, laser-cooled mercury ion for which the fractional systematic frequency uncertainty was below 7.2 x 10(-17). The absolute frequency of the transition was measured versus cesium to be 1,064,721,609,899,144.94 (97) Hz, with a statistically limited total fractional uncertainty of 9.1 x 10(-16) the most accurate absolute measurement of an optical frequency to date. 相似文献
