Study of depth-dependent tetragonal distortion of quaternary AIInGaN epilayer by Rutherford backscattering/channeling

<正>A 240-nm thick Al_0.4In_0.02Ga_0.58N layer is grown by metal organic chemical vapour deposition,with an over 1-μm thick GaN layer used as a buffer layer on a substrate of sapphire（0001）.Rutherford backscattering and channeling are used to characterize the microstructure of AlInGaN.The results show a good crystalline quality of AlInGaN(x_min= 1.5%) with GaN buffer layer.The channeling angular scan around an off-normal（1213） axis in the {1010} plane of the AlInGaN layer is used to determine tetragonal distortion e_T,which is caused by the elastic strain in the AlInGaN.The resulting AlInGaN is subjected to an elastic strain at interfacial layer,and the strain decreases gradually towards the near-surface layer.It is expected that an epitaxial AlInGaN thin film with a thickness of 850 nm will be fully relaxed （e_T=0）.     

HIRFL人身安全联锁系统的设计与实现

兰州重离子加速器(简称HIRFL),是我国规模最大、加速离子种类最多、能量最高的重离子研究装置,可提供单核子能量达GeV量级的重离子束。HIRFL运行时,束流会在加速器隧道内产生辐射,需要建立一套人身安全联锁系统来保障人员的辐射安全。HIRFL人身安全联锁系统遵循分区联锁、硬件最可靠、失效保护、冗余及独立性、自锁等设计原则,选用了可靠性高的冗余PLC作为核心控制器,并使用了安全性高的联锁部件。本工作的完成保障了HIRFL工作人员的辐射安全,也为同类型加速器装置的人身安全联锁系统设计提供了参考。     

First-principle studies on the electronic structure of Fe3O4(110) surface

The first-principle was employed to study the six possible models for the Fe₃O₄(110) surface, namely the AB-terminated surface (AB model), the AB-terminated with Fe_A vacancy (AB-Fe_A vac model), the AB-terminated with Fe_B vacancy (AB-Fe_B vac model), the B-terminated surface (B model), the B-terminated surface with Fe_B vacancy (B-Fe_B vac model) and the B-terminated surface with O vacancy (B-O vac model). The stability, the electronic structure and the magnetic properties of the six surface models were also calculated. The results predict that the B-O vac model is more stable than other types of surface models. The half-metallic property remain in the AB and B models, while the other four surface models exhibit metallic properties. At the same time, the AB, AB-Fe_A vac, AB-Fe_B vac, B and the B-Fe_B vac models have ferrimagnetic properties, while the B-O vac model has antiferromagnetic property.

Mid-infrared generation based on a periodically poled LiNbO3 optical parametric oscillator

We report a nanosecond Nd:YVO_4-pumped optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on periodically poled LiNbO_3 (PPLN). Tuning is achieved in this experiment by varying the temperature and period of the PPLN. The design of double-pass singly resonant oscillator (DSRO) and confocal cavity enables the OPO threshold to be lowered considerably, resulting in a simple, compact, all-solid-state configuration with the mid-infrared idler powers of up to 466mW at 3.41μm.     

A Silicon Nanowire‐Based Electrochemical Sensor with High Sensitivity and Electrocatalytic Activity

A new kind of silicon nanowire (SiNWs)‐based nanoelectrode assembly, a gold‐nanoparticle‐decorated silicon nanowire array (AuNPs@SiNWsAr), is employed for the construction of high‐performance electrochemical sensors. Significantly, the electrochemical nanosensors are capable of sensitive detection of various electroactive molecules (e.g., dopamine (DA), ascorbic acid (AA), hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), and glucose). Further, DA molecules loaded on the surface of AuNPs@SiNWsAr preserve stable high electroactivity overnight without special protection, while free DA molecules may lose their biological activity due to severe oxidization in ambient environment. These findings may offer new opportunities for the design of high‐performance electrochemical nanosensors with high sensitivity and robust stability.     

Synthesis of two dihydropyrroloindoledione‐based copolymers for organic electronics

Two novel dihydropyrroloindoledione (DPID)‐based copolymers have been synthesized in a two directional approach and characterized (gel permeation chromatography (GPC), ultraviolet‐visible (UV–vis), cyclic voltammetry, and computational models). These planar, broad absorption copolymers show promise for use in organic electronics, with deep energy levels and low bandgaps. The two‐directional Knoevenagel condensation used demonstrates the versatility of DPID as a useful yet underexploited conjugated unit. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Resonantly pumped Q-switched Er:GdVO4 laser

We describe a Q-switched Er:GdVO₄ laser resonantly pumped by a MgO-doped periodically poled LiNbO₃ optical parametric oscillator （MgO: PPLN OPO） at 1536 nm. In continuous-wave lasing, the maximum output power is 1.14 W with an incident pump power of 4.7 W and a slope efficiency of 27%. In Q-switched operation, 1.1 mJ of output pulse energy is achieved at 200 Hz. The upper-state lifetime at different pulse repetition frequencies is also calculated.
