Effect of microstructure on thermoelectric properties of CSD-grown Bi2Sr2Co2Oy thin films

Three Bi₂Sr₂Co₂O_y thin films with different microstructures have been prepared by chemical solution deposition on LaAlO₃(001) through varying the annealing temperature. With the decrease in the annealing temperature, both the size and c-axis alignment degree of grains in the film decrease as well, leading to an increase in the film resistivity. In addition, the decrease in the annealing temperature also results in a slight increase in the seebeck coefficient due to the enhanced energy filtering effect of small-grain film. The nanostructured Bi₂Sr₂Co₂O_y film with the average grain size of about 100 nm shows a power factor comparable to that of the films with larger grains. Since the thermal conductivity of the nanostrcutured films can be depressed due to the enhanced phonon scattering by grain boundary, a higher figure of merit is expected in Bi₂Sr₂Co₂O_y thin film with grains in nanometer size.     

Analysis of penetration of axisymmetric projectiles into semi-infinite targets

The process of penetration of a projectile into a semi-infinitetarget is studied in this paper.

磁过滤器电流对非晶碳薄膜摩擦学特性影响的研究

研究了过滤阴极真空电弧技术中,不同的磁过滤器电流下(5—13 A),制备的四面体非晶碳(ta-C)薄膜对摩擦学特性的影响.通过对薄膜厚度,薄膜结构以及薄膜表面粗糙度随磁过滤电流的变化结果进行了测试,结果表明,随着磁过滤器电流的增大,薄膜的sp³键含量逐渐减少,表面粗糙度从0.13增大到0.38.磁过滤器电流在5 A时,薄膜的摩擦系数最小约为0.08,当电流增大到7 A时,摩擦系数显著增大,磁过滤器电流从7 A增大到13 A时,薄膜的摩擦系数再次减小约为0.1. 关键词： 四面体非晶碳 过滤阴极真空电弧 磁过滤器电流 摩擦系数     

Effect of local structure on electron paramagnetic resonance spectra for trigonal [Cr(H2O)6]3+coordination complex in the sulfate alums series: a ligand field theory study

A simple theoretical method is introduced for studying the interrelation between electronic and molecular structures.By diagonalizing the 120 × 120 complete energy matrices,the relationships between zero-field splitting(ZFS) parameter D and local distortion parameter △θ for Cr 3+ ions doped,separately,in α-and β-alums are investigated.Our results indicate that there exists an approximately linear relationship between D and △θ in a temperature range 4.2-297 K and the signs of D and △θ are opposite to each other.Moreover,in order to understand the contribution of spin-orbit coupling coefficient ζ to ZFS parameter D,the relation between D and ζ is also discussed.     

Structural study of 12 MeV electron irradiated polypropylene by X-ray diffraction

12 MeV electron beams with different doses of 4, 8, 16 and 32 Mrad from LINAC designed by Nanjing University have been used to irradiate polypropylene films and their structures studied by X-ray diffraction afterwards. We have found that the electron irradiation does not change the total crystallinity of polypropylene but greatly inflences its crystal structure with increase of phase and decrease of phase as irradiation dose increases (within 16 Mrad). However, it is unexpected that the structure of irradiated sample with 32 Mrad are similar to that of the control sample. This behavior has also been observed in positron annihilation lifetime measurements.     

Comparison of characteristics of an x-ray preionized XeCl laser, pumped by water transmission line and low inductance capacitor bank

With a high uniformity of x-ray preionization, a long pulse duration and a high specific energy (9 J l^-1), an XeCl excimer laser output has been obtained by using a compact low inductance capacitor bank as the laser excitation circuit. The superior features of the low inductance capacitor bank (LICB) compared to the water transmission line (WTL) are attractive for repetitively pulsed XeCl excimer lasers.     

The electron ionization rate in multilayered semiconductor structures

We present theoretical results of the electron impact ionization rate in GaAs/AlGaAs multiquantum well structures as a function of applied electric field for various geometries, i.e., well and barrier widths. In addition, we present preliminary measurements of the current-voltage characteristics of MBE grown devices which demonstrate very low leakage current as well as sharp breakdwon behavior. It is found that the net ionization rate, determined by averaging over the constitutent GaAs and AlGaAs layers, approaches the weighted average of the constituent bulk rates at high electric field strengths; the potential discontinuity is relatively unimportant. The electron ionization rate within the well regions alone is still higher than that in bulk GaAs, but is insufficiently enhanced to compensate for the much lower rate in the AlGaAs layers. As the field is lowered to 250.0 kV/cm, the average ionization rate in the multiquantum well structure becomes larger than in the bulk.
